LEBRON JAMES HAS LOOKED more like the LeBron James of old over the past few weeks. Well, other than Tuesday night.
His scoring is way up and his impact on Los Angeles Lakers games has surged, too. Not coincidentally, they've been winning more. They've won seven of 10 even after their 32-point loss to the Denver Nuggets.
Is it because he has become more comfortable in his new surroundings? Sure, that probably is playing some role.
Is it because his teammates are learning how to play alongside him and vice versa?
