MJ had these runs when he was on the Wizards too at the same age. Fun to see.
Lebron is actually 17th in the league this year in VORP (right behind Markkanen and ahead of Siakam & Booker) and 15th in BPM. His 28.9 PPG this season is good for 8th in the league with a higher eFG% than 3 of the 7 guys ahead of him and only Luka with more assists than him among the 7 players in PPG. Long way of saying, he's putting up another amazing season and doing it very efficiently. Not bad so far for his 20th season.

Jordan averaged 20.0 PPG, 6.1 REB, 3.8 AST at age 38 compared to Lebron's current 29.2 PPG, 8.2 REB, 6.7 AST.
There's really no comparison between the two here at this point in their careers, but MJ did drop 51 on the Charlotte Hornets his last year (but that's a scrub team)
Lakers finally playing well. Hopefully AD can actually get healthy and play more than a few games at a time without getting injured.
