NBA／21次入選最佳陣容再創歷史紀錄 40歲詹姆斯：有點瘋狂
在今天官方公布的年度最佳陣容中，湖人當家球星詹姆斯（LeBron James）一如預期入選年度最佳第二隊，這是他自2004-05年賽季以來連續21次入選最佳陣容，持續推高聯盟紀錄，同時也以40歲又125天的年齡，樹立自己保持的「高齡障礙」。
在詹姆斯之後，歷史上所有巨星也只有賈霸（Kareem Abdul-Jabbar）、鄧肯（Tim Duncan）與布萊恩（Kobe Bryant）等3人可以累積15次入選最佳陣容，詹姆斯可說是斷層式的遙遙領先。
詹姆斯21次最佳陣容中，有13次第一隊，第二隊和第三隊各4次，13次第一隊也是史上第一。
不過很多球迷還是忍不住為「詹皇」抱屈，如果沒有出現腹股溝傷勢，以詹姆斯場均24.4分8.2助攻7.8籃板的成績，甚至有望進入年度第一隊。
「對一個40歲的人來說，這種表現簡直不可思議。」、「居然有人認為湖人沒有詹皇會更好」、「如果他沒有腹股溝傷病，很難想像他會排在前5名之外，」、「瘋狂的是，在他受傷之前還是MVP前3名的人選」、「詹姆斯應該取代米契爾進第一隊」。
ALL NBA at 40!! Low key crazy to me right now! Sitting here watching the playoffs just thinking about it. Blessed beyond I can even imagine.👑🙏🏾

針對自己再度刷新紀錄，詹姆斯也滿懷感恩在社群上寫道：「40歲再次入選年度最佳陣容！！此刻對我來說簡直有點瘋狂！坐在這裡看季後賽，一邊思考這一切。我所擁有的，遠比我能想像的還要幸運與感恩。」
從投票分布來看，詹姆斯一共獲得17張第一名選票，僅次於年度第一隊的5名球星，不過他在第二名選票中只有拿到61張，遠低於愛德華（Anthony Edwards）的87張，也讓他的總分289略低於愛德華的318分。

"I'm no Rodman, but in 20-odd years of playing basketball, I've learned to play some fundamental defense" - James Worthy proved his defensive skills when he slowed down Chris Mullin in 1991
"I'm no Rodman, but in 20-odd years of playing basketball, I've learned to play some fundamental defense" - James Worthy proved his defensive skills when he slowed down Chris Mullin in 1991 originally appeared on Basketball Network. Throughout his career, Los Angeles Lakers legend James Worthy was best known for his offensive prowess. However, that didn't mean that the North Carolina product was useless on defense. Advertisement "Big Game James" displayed that in the 1991 Western Conference semifinals between the Lakers and the Golden State Warriors. He was assigned to guard Chris Mullin, a move that proved successful. "I'm no Rodman, but in 20-odd years of playing basketball, I've learned to play some fundamental defense," the top pick of the 1982 Draft said via UPI. The Lakers made the defensive adjustments after "Mully" dropped a game-high 41 points in Game 2 of that series. Then-coach Mike Dunleavy took Magic Johnson off the Warriors star and replaced him with Worthy. Overlooking Worthy's defense At the time, Worthy was one of the Lakers' top offensive weapons. He was a great finisher in the fast break and had a decent mid-range shot. Best of all, he was not afraid to take clutch shots when needed. Advertisement Because of his athleticism, long arms, quickness and basketball IQ, the 6'9" Worthy did his share to help the Lakers on the defensive end. His size proved to be a problem for players like Mullin. The St. John's product admitted James gave him problems. "He gets in your stuff off the dribble and he's still big enough to get into your shot when you step back. He and Dennis (Rodman) are the two quickest guys in the league," the lefty sharpshooter quipped. With Worthy on him, Mullin's point production dwindled in the games that followed. After that 41-point explosion, the 6'7" forward managed to score only nine points in Game 4. Chris did unload 26 in Game 5, but the effort went for naught as the Lakers closed out the series 124-119.

LA drew first blood by taking Game 1, 93-91. Advertisement However, that win came at a price. Worth reinjured his left ankle and played through the pain the rest of the way. According to Dunleavy, "Big Game James'" injury was costly. The Lakers coach felt the Lakers had a good chance to win the title, especially with James' familiarity with Jordan. "The worst part was James Worthy getting injured," Dunleavy said. "We felt really good about our chances there. James played with Michael at North Carolina and was not intimidated by him at all. And he was our guy to defend him." Despite not being 100%, Worthy still led the Lakers in scoring with 19.3 points per game. But against Jordan (31.2 points per game) and Scottie Pippen (20.8 points per game), the effort went for naught. Advertisement Worthy's high ankle injury was only the beginning. In the latter part of the 1991-92 season, James underwent knee surgery, forcing him to miss the rest of the season. These injuries took a lot of the UNC product's quickness and leaping ability. He played the next two seasons but decided to call it a career in the 1994-95 preseason. It was quite a run for "Big Game James," who played a crucial role in three Lakers championships. His two-way impact made him invaluable — a big reason why the franchise retired his No. 42 jersey. On top of that, his stellar career earned him a spot on both the NBA's 50th and 75th-anniversary teams — honors that felt like the perfect nod to a player who always delivered when it mattered most.

"Bill Laimbeer came and gave Larry a chop" - Dennis Rodman on the brawl that started the Pistons-Celtics rivalry
"Bill Laimbeer came and gave Larry a chop" - Dennis Rodman on the brawl that started the Pistons-Celtics rivalry originally appeared on Basketball Network. During the '80s, every game between the Detroit Pistons and the Boston Celtics was competitive and definitely physical. Though there were times when players lost it and ended up having some physical altercations, those hardcore battles weren't the reason the Pistons and the Celtics hated each other. Advertisement According to Pistons legend Dennis Rodman, he could already sense the animosity between his teammates and the C's early on in his time with Detroit. However, the historic rivalry officially began in the thrilling Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Finals in 1987. To this day, "The Worm" can still remember how it all started. After an unsurprisingly physical play between him and Celtics star forward Larry Bird, Pistons bruiser Bill Laimbeer hacked the living lights out of "Larry Legend." As expected, all hell broke loose, and the two teams have hated each other since then. "Oh, My God. Like I said, man, I was just so green behind the ears. I didn't know. I just wanted to go out there and play. But I think Isaiah Thomas, Joe Dumars, Rick Mahorn, Vinnie Johnson, all of those guys that were there before me, they hated them so much," Rodman told Basketball Time Machine when asked how the Pistons-Celtics rivalry started. "Now you can see the last years we played in the Silver Dom; you saw that brawl when I tried to block Larry Bird's shot. Bill Laimbeer came over and I fell backwards and Bill Laimbeer came and gave Larry a chop with a forearm. Then all of a sudden, the melee," he recalled. "That's when the rivalry started to really happen, right there and I said, 'Oh man, I'm in the league now; this is fun, this is fun.'" Dennis loved being a Bad Boy After the disgraceful incident during the '87 playoffs, both the Celtics and the Pistons eagerly anticipated their upcoming matchups. Whenever they stepped on the hardwood, the atmosphere was charged with animosity, and almost every player on both squads was driven not only to secure a win but also to inflict damage on their opponents. Advertisement Fully embracing the Pistons' notorious "Bad Boys" persona, Rodman recognized his pivotal role in these brutal encounters. His task was simple, exhilarating, and yet a bit challenging — to provoke and hurt the Celtics. However, "Dennis the Menace" had to perform these duties with a strategic mindset. He had to successfully irk and beat up the C's, but not in a very obvious way. "So, all of a sudden, the 'Bad Boys' started to stick with us," Rodman reflected. "In 1988, and it stuck with us until 1991. I loved it, man. I loved doing my thing. I loved kicking ass and just running basketball games, brother." "I became the quiet assassin with the 'Bad Boys,'" the two-time All-Star added. "I did my job. I did the dirty work. I loved the work. I loved the people and that just drove me to do bigger and better things for the Detroit Pistons. And I just joined the 'Bad Boys' because I loved it."

However, just before the '80s concluded, Detroit found a new nemesis on the court in the younger and charging Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls. With the Celtics no longer in contention and almost out of the picture, the Pistons turned their attention to Jordan and the Bulls. During this period, the "Bad Boys" were not only older but also physically stronger than Chicago. With their notorious aggressive style of play and wild antics, Detroit often bullied the younger Bulls. While the Bulls may not have matched the toughness of the Celtics during that era, Rodman openly confessed that he also relished the challenge of facing them, particularly when it came to facing Jordan. Advertisement "All of a sudden, we have a difficult time now; Chicago started coming up… we have to get over them now. So, the Celtics, they're pretty much gone, then the Bulls started to come up, and it was a war every game," Rodman said. "I had to stop Scottie Pippen, Michael, those two guys were at us every game." "It was cool," the two-time NBA Defensive Player of the Year said of facing MJ. "Because he gave us the opportunity to work harder because we knew these guys was coming. But it's hard to keep that guy under 30 points; he was that good man." Rodman's controversial stories from the past only prove that NBA rivalries back in the day weren't just about winning and showcasing skills. For them, it was about pride, glory, and, most importantly, dominance.
