I'd say it will start to diminish when he's around 36 when he's a full time power forward. He'll still be bangin on dudes tho.

I don't think he'll lose but I believe in the possibility of more athletic 2s and 3s in the future. Like how he's able to go out and guard PGs. I don't think he'll be able to do that when he's 32.


By then he should make a permanent move to the 4.

Im not a bron stan to say the least but i give him props for his off season training. Imagine if shaq worked as hard as bron or kobe in the offseason. He could've had another 6 years as the most dominant guy in the nba.

- the only way he falls off is if he goes the shawn kemp regimen

he won't have that level of athleticsm in 5-6 years. think about it. by then he will be the same age as :deadkobe: is now.

and :childplease: lost his most athleticism I believe around 08 or 09. so around 30-31 years old. that'd give lebron about 2 or 3 more years to be doing what he does off sheer athleticism.

Nah, Bron is stronger than Kobe ever was, and LeBron has NEVER had any significant injuries. Kobe had already started to have knee problems, I believe, by the age Bron is now.

I'm not saying injuries won't happen, but assuming they don't, I expect LeBron to hold onto his elite athleticism longer than Kobe did. And even now, Kobe is STILL a pretty tremendous athlete, even with all of the injuries he has had.

NOBODY in NBA history takes better care of their body than LeBron James does.

These are the keys right here. Generally guys fall off atheletically due to injury or getting :flabbynsick:. You cant' predict or prevent injuries however he is certainly doing his part in terms of keeping in shape. Kobe is a bad comparison due to his injury history. A great guy to compare him to would be KG. Both freakish athletes who take good care of themsevles and avoided injuries throughout their career. KG was still pretty damn athletic when he went to Boston and didn't show any signs of slowing down until he hurt his knee and he was 33 at the time.
