LeBron James’s dominance in the NBA over the past two decades is indisputable. With his physique, athleticism, and prodigious skills, The King has emerged as the Greatest of All Time (GOAT) in the NBA, following in the footsteps of legends like Michael Jordan and the late Kobe Bryant. However, there’s another factor that has contributed to his sustained excellence: his exceptional basketball IQ. LeBron never relies solely on his physical gifts but always knows how to handle situations with maximum efficiency and minimal exertion.
Recently, with the aim of imparting his elite basketball mindset to young players, the king has launched a series of podcasts titled “Mind The Games,” guiding listeners through the cerebral aspects of the game mastered by the greatest players in NBA history. The podcast series, now on its fourth episode, is incredibly insightful. Even I find myself pondering each episode, aspiring to play smarter and avoid being sidelined throughout the game.
You can catch The King’s podcast on various platforms such as YouTube, Facebook, and more. Especially, young players (who often find themselves on the bench) should tune in to increase their chances of getting more playing time!
