LeBron James led the LA Lakers to a comeback victory over the LA Clippers on Wednesday night at the Crypto.com Arena. He exploded for 34 points, but was in the zone in the final period with 19 points. James said that it was a fabulous feeling to have and wished that he could play in the zone regularly.
In his postgame press conference, including Sportskeeda's Mark Medina, James discussed the fourth quarter he had and how the Lakers came back from a 21-point deficit.
"I know we've kind of heard this, you know what it feels like to be in the zone in our in our sport," James said.
"That's just the feeling where you feel like everything that you put up is going in. For me, I just kept it consistent, I wasn't taking ill-advised. I stayed in the course of the offense when I was able to get the switches, I was able to get myself some space and get a couple more looks. My teammates did a great job of continuing to find me.
He added:
"I just try to dictate the tempo, dictate the game, as we started making a run for it and getting the game closer and closer and closer. Just a zone that can't really describe it.
"Wish you could stay in it forever, but obviously, it checks out as the game ends. You know during, you don't feel anything. You just have a superpower out there."
