LeBron James on Playing at a High Level at Age 41: “I don’t know man I don’t even know how I’m doing it. I’m just trying to squeeze as much juice out of the lemon or orange or whatever is left as much as i can. Continue playing the game that I love”

I swear the best thing about lebrons career length is the amount of Lememes that’s been brought to existence
Dude there’s been so many LeBron memes around since… well, the internet got memes. Him retiring isn’t going to be felt just by the nba community.
This is the only meme beaten to death by Reddit that has continued to be entertaining to me. I’m looking at you tua turndaballova.
LeMemes and Day-to-Dayvis are my two favorite, but LeMemes are in a league of their own.
lemon or orange or things of that nature
Whatever the case may be
He was a great man
Whatever makes sense.
I feel like until his podcast we really didn’t know how much he uses those filler phrases or idioms of that nature, whatever the case may be.

I need to know which citrus. I NEED ANSWERS

He’s not lying. I’m the same age and try to squeeze out some juice sometimes too.
His full time job is to be fit and healthy such that LeJuice can be LeSqueezed.
have her squeeze that lemon till the juice runs down your leg

Careful or you gonna fall right outta beh, beh, beh, beeeeeddddddd.
you sure it’s juice you’re trying to squeeze?
Me too. On some days some juice comes out.
I do too, Im 38 but sometimes think man, is the juice worth the squeeze?
You use steroids too?
Everyone does, so that’s a moot point.
“Juice” lmao
“At the end of the day I’m just out there trying to squeeze the lemon. I mean you know how it is getting older as a man, it isn’t isn’t as easy as it once was to get that juice out. But there’s nothing I love more than squeezing the lemon in front of all my fans.”

His attitude this year compared to last year is actually mind boggling. It’s a complete 180.
Not true. He’s just coming back from sciatica and did not have preseason or training camp to ramp up. JJ spoke against this dumb narrative that LeBron doesn’t care anymore
I was at the Lakers Mavs game
He was mimicking practicing a golf swing during the national anthem and sometimes wouldn’t advance past half court a lot of times during the game (which is why he leads in fastbreak points)
He’s definitely checked out a little bit but he’s still pretty good at this basketball thing
He’s def not checked out lol. Hes pacing himself throughout the year while he was ramping up from the MCL injury and Sciatica.
Hes the Lakers only transition offense at this point, so its def by design for him to leak out a lot
Was at a Lakers game earlier this year.
Definitely a different vibe just because I think since they got Luka it’s sorta made him realize, just based on things he’s said that he’s not the guy who even at his very best will be leading the team to being a contender, that’s Luka.
He’s in a supporting role now and seems to be accepting it in his own way which is kinda crazy to think it’s the first time he’s arguably ever been in this situation. Maybe the first year in Miami? But we all know he was better than DWade, it just wasn’t “his” team.
He tried for 4 and a half years to be the supporting guy, but AD never took the reigns, even when healthy. So LeBron was always forced to be the main guy. Us getting Luka took such a huge weight and responsibility off his shoulders (even though he does still have to show out and take over sometimes even now)
Riiiight
I don’t think he’s giving up or anything, but the way he is speaking to the media is completely different
LeCitrus
Watching Bron as a middle schooler, on ESPN, when he was in highschool?
crazy good memory
Im 57
Crazy that was nearly 30 years ago now
Lol :)
PEDs are why, but we can say the chicken rice and broccoli diet
And that’s okay. Everyone needs to get with the times that all these dudes do it.
Thank you, someone that gets it 🤝
Yep. Giannis didn’t get boulder shoulders from training alone, all of them do it
Tatum didn’t miraculously heal like Wolverine from his Achilles
I guess Luka didn’t get the memo LOL
You can be on PEDs and not look like it. Helps with endurance.
For those who think LeBron juices, do you think Steph and KD do as well? Or MJ or Kobe back in the day?
I think Bron does but I don’t see why others wouldn’t given competitive advantage
Absolutely, they all do. Steph doesn’t look massive but there was one off season he had an insane transformation. To be as strong as he is, the endurance and recovery at the highest of levels?
PEDs have been around a long ass time and we’re probably commonplace in nba even in the 70’s. When you are competing against other top teir guys, fame and fortune on the line, it’s easy to see why it’s the norm.
Curry is def on EPO
Everyone does to some extent LeBron just spends the most on it
Weird how I got downvoted for just implying LeBron uses PEDs. Guess it depends on the day for when this sub is flooded by klutch bots.
It happens bro these bron fans are crazy man u can bring up a legit criticism of him, and they’ll bring out every excuse in the book and downvote u. Them and kobe fans will donwvote u to hell
Or maybe some people think it’s ridiculous to say someone’s on PEDs just because they can do what you can’t
I used to hear that same shit from beer guzzlers back in college. All I did was drink the occasional protein shake, eat healthy, and go to the gym regularly
Besides the obvious he also had his wife, trainer, and best friend/manager tied to Biogenesis. 3 cop outs is quite a lot.
AFAIK, there’s nothing tying his wife to it and he wasn’t implicated at all according to actual investigators. The friend/manager is the only one you have right of the three.
What’s your source saying otherwise?
Alexander, LeBron’s trainer was involved in purchasing products through Biogenesis. According to reports they claimed he was LeBron’s wife’s trainer and that they had a smoothie business together. Believe what you want to, but I’m having trouble believing this.
Source: https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/38089564/tony-bosch-biogenesis-treated-wwe-star-big-show-boxer-shannon-briggs-others
Ok, so your source is your gut, despite what the people doing the actual investigating have stated. Luckily “I have a feeling” doesn’t hold up in court or we’d all be in trouble.
Thanks for wasting my time ✌️
Edited in the source for you. You’ll read it and still ignore everything. I guarantee it.
As for Alexander, Acevedo told authorities the trainer initially paid him for drugs, but the duo later worked out a deal whereby Alexander would receive substances for free in return for referring new clients to Acevedo. Among the referrals, Acevedo said, was Mims. No athlete names were listed among nearly a dozen referrals in the documents, and there is no indication Alexander provided performance-enhancing substances to any athletes via those referrals. In fact, although it had been widely reported that James worked at times with Alexander while playing for the Heat and later the Cleveland Cavaliers, that was not how the documents referred to the trainer. Rather, they identified Miami-based Alexander as the personal trainer of James’ wife. (State incorporation documents show she and Alexander also co-owned a cold-pressed juice and smoothie business at the time.) Stanfill, the former DEA investigator, said that because of the duo’s connection, the DEA examined whether Alexander’s actions had any connection to James and determined that they did not. “I can tell you that we looked into everything just because we knew this day would come … She wasn’t getting any supplements, anything like that. … There was never any indication that LeBron James did anything wrong.”
Did you ignore your own source, or did you fail to comprehend it? They say the average reading level is around 8th grade, which is why I always read people’s sources instead of relying on their interpretation of it.
Did you watch his 2018 playoff run?
Cmon bro stop it, that man is on PEDs
“A lifelong basketball player, who’s arguably the greatest player of all time, played great at the peak of his career instead of being on the couch and out of shape like me. He must be on PEDs”
Logic a Rhodes scholar would envy
This feels like projecting my dude
Whatever makes you feel better. My college habits didn’t stop when I graduated.
I mean, ur kinda assuming people being critical of LeBron using PEDs have to be fat. Plenty of body builders have said the same thing about him and how he has to be on a cycle considering how much smaller he looks in the off-season vs. in it

Oh look, a twist on “many people are saying….” The go-to evidence of a particular someone who’s very well known for being intelligent and trustworthy
99% of the population could do that & not replicate the athleticism required to be a pro athlete. I’ve done all that & still couldn’t sniff minor leaguers level. Difference is these guy juice for that fraction of an edge against the 1%.
Ride a bike, drink protein, & eat healthy, you still won’t beat a unjuiced Lance Armstrong. Lebron juices to go from best to goat tier & sustain it over a long period of time.
Part of me believes it’s closer to everyone than a few.
JUICE
There’s plenty of active and former players/coaches that have one assumption lol
LeJuicing
Hes gonna retire with no farewell tour isnt he?
With Luka on the team and Lakers being in win now mode for the foreseeable future, I don’t think LeBron will be able to get a farewell tour unless he announces his retirement while he’s still playing at a high level and can help win games
He could’ve done it this year :/
When you go into the paint now you’re now guaranteed to be as safe as humanly possible. Leading to some players having much longer careers. You seemingly stay spry when Bill Lambeer isn’t waiting to drop you 12 times a night.
I’m 45 and trying to keep up with these kids half my age on the court is tough.
I’ve been balling all my life but at some point I’m going to have to say goodbye to the game I love.
It’s not easy letting go. My brain and my ego are fighting my body.
Basketball is like my religion.
My church. My sanctuary.
How do I let go of a lifetime of devotion?
Look KD, you are going to find something, or someONE else to love, in time! I promise you that! In the meantime, thanks for all the buckets, Slim!
Hey atleast you made it to 45. Repeated injuries had me calling it quits at 38. I also remember being cross upped to where my lateral movement was half a second behind what I was used to. As someone who prided himself in taking the best offensive person from the other team on D, it was a huge blow.
Yup. That’s why Father Time is undefeated.
Sucks but it’s a harsh reality for us all.
At least we have lots of good memories that’ll last a lifetime.
I’d be down to have less games if it means that players wouldn’t be sitting out for rest nights more often.

Def a lemon
I read the title as “high school level”

This will throw all the 41 years olds who struggled to walk up a flights of stairs at 25 into a tizzy
Helps when you play just one side of the ball
As a society we need to just let people juice. Especially in lower contact sports.
What brought me to this conclusion was guys like penny or derrick rose. I want to see their whole career that’s it full stop.
Do you actually think nobody is juicing? Don’t be that gullible.
I’m pointing to guys who’s careers were cut short by injury.
”…lemon or orange or whatever the case may be…”

TUE: therapeutic use exemption. Just like Serena Williams got.
It also helps being a reptilian hybrid.
Justice Young and the President of Basketball punching the air right now in 2K17.
Put on that full court squeeze.
Plenty of juice from those trips in Germany. Lebalco
Still good, but doesn’t know what sort of citrus he’s squeezing.
Trenbolone, Anavar, there’s just too many to keep track of.
Can I get some of that juice?
“More juice than Tropicana”
Stat padding when he can, not playing defense, per usual.
The special sauce is how. We all know.
He knows exactly how he’s doing it. PED’s.
How come the rest ain’t playing till 40s?
Excuses. Everyone’s on them.
HGH is incredible
Still crazy he’s performing in that level. If HGH is all that it takes, then everyone would be playing till they’re 40
I wasn’t commenting to hate on the man, I’m a LeBron fan and PED supporter. But hgh doesn’t do the same things steroids do. So to me it’s a non issue
Do u think the league keeps it a secret for lebron?
I don’t think anyone cares. You can take it in small doses just to sustain vitality
I see but why test for it then?
If they test, I would assume they test for a certain level that is abnormally high
guess i’ll be the one to say it….high level!?
Of PEDSs
Like every other player?
Go play it somewhere else thanks
Something tells me he’s not going to listen to you.
I think he will actually. Zero chance Lakers bring him back
Just keep resting on defense like you have the last 10 years.
And make sure your roster has all stars and hall of famers no matter the team.
