LeBron James on Loss vs. Hawks: We could on any given night beat any team or get our ass kicked

LeBron James on Loss vs. Hawks: We could on any given night beat any team or get our ass kicked

On the floor um I mean I don’t know I mean obviously they scored a bunch of points but that’s what they capable of doing I thought we had some chances um but you every time we made a run um they was able to come back and either go like a80

Run six0 run whatever the case may be you know we got it down was close to 10 in that fourth quarter and then boom boom boom Le kind of went back up but suppose the record reflects that you’ve had some clear positive moments and some clear negative moments this year right

Kind of going back and forth what do you have to do going into these next two New York Boston a couple tough games to to find that uh the positive side of it let play our game uh try to be better be better in transition um try not to turn

The ball over for pick sixes you know those are hard to uh recover from um so you know obviously we got two really really damn good teams you know coming up especially obviously Boston at home at the end we lost one home game you know so we just got to be better the

Circumstances of second half of a backto back travel and no ad certainly are things that do factor into the game um did you feel like that aside though your guys kind of togetherness and effort was where it should have been tonight and when and in what in your to get effort

In what quarter I’m sorry I didn’t hear you not thought you said oh tonight um at times at times it wasn’t but that’s our record it is what it is 37 minutes last night 36 tonight do you think the fans appreciate what you’re doing at 39 years

Old and like how hard is it for you to still play at your level um I don’t really get involved in that or the thought process that I just try when I’m healthy enough to go out there and play I just try to perform at a high level

Help my teammates uh do great things on the floor try to be productive and uh and when lose a draw be you know satisfied with the way I approach the game so um that’s all I can ask for myself what’s the best way for you guys

To be connected on defense with ads not in there it’s difficult as that may be um you know there got to be more communication throughout the you know the course of an um uh of a possession um because you can have a little you know slippage when ad is out there

Because he protects us on that on that third line of defense but you know when he’s not out there it has to be constant communication and not on the floor so when we do have the slippers we least have guys that’s protecting but also ad does a great job of defensive rebounding

I mean there’s times tonight where we were getting really good stops but we either couldn’t clean glass or the ball or go off our hands out of bounds they still have the possession Soo tonight was not very good yeah that started with me though was ass from the

Free throw line last two games so I got to be better starts with me Lebron team’s scoring more points this season than any season since 1970 what do you why do you think there’s so much scoring going on right now um just uh the way

The game is and the way it’s uh better for the fans and the way the officiates rest the game is for freedom of movement it’s the same way of why do we see so many passing yards in NFL it’s the same thing as good as the the Knicks and the seltic are um

This group you know you guys have had some big stages this year where you played well and those are two Arenas there’s always energy there um you know do you feel like you guys could put it together and and look a lot um we could

On Any Given Night Beat any team in the NBA and then On Any Given night we get our ass kicked by any team in the NBA that’s just a what’s our record 500 under 500 one game under 500 but 2425 that’s where we are last question

Brian you guys are C staying on the road for the next couple games big match up against Boston big match up against the Knicks what would your message be to your teammate and what can you do yourself you know to get that get pick back on the winning side of things I

Don’t have any message for my teammates just go out and do your job
