LeBron is one of Anthony Davis's first mentors

[aj1987]

The best basketball player in the world has a role in helping develop one of the game's up and coming superstars since before he set foot on an NBA court.

The Pelicans Anthony Davis counts the Miami Heat's LeBron James as one of his first professional mentors, thanks to their time together representing Team USA at the London Olympics. At that time, Davis had one-season of college basketball under his belt and, although he knew he was heading to New Orleans, Davis had yet to play a single professional game.

"One of the things I'll always remember most about him, is that he told me the Olympics was the best possible experience I could have as a rookie and that I should make the most of it," Davis recalled before Saturday's tip off against the Heat. "LeBron told me this experience was going to show me what being an elite professional athlete looks like and where I should set my bar."


Lessons Davis clearly absorbed and is now putting to work as he continues on his historic sophomore season.

Davis has recorded 8 30-plus point games this season, 36 20-plus point showings and 25 20-point/10-rebound games.

Davis says he also learned a lot about work ethic and preparation while watching and practicing with James.

The two have remained close since their Olympic experience and enjoyed some quality time soaking up the All Star experience in New Orleans last month.

As much respect and admiration as Davis has for James, he says once the two are on the court, it's all business.

"Tonight, we're competitors first and foremost," Davis smiled.

Another lesson learned.

Come on homie, not everyone that gives you advice is a "mentor."

[Trollsmasher]

LeBron should team up with him and win some rings as a sidekick

[DaOldLion]

LeBron is basically responsible for the development of every great player in the league today :bowdown: :bowdown:

[Black Mamba's B]

leBRONZE prolly told davis this: "Yo if you wanna win a championship go join another team with their SUPER STAR because I couldn't win one in Cleveland" :roll: :roll:

Next step: Davis wears a headband and lowers it to cover his brow.

Contrived story. I'm sure all the pros on the US team gave him advice, and he was only being asked about LeBron. And what exactly does LBJ know about professionalism?

He likes to pretend he is like most of the April 2013 posters.

Guess you weren't around last year when OP was riding Lebrons dick like Seabiscuit.

[kamil]

Is LeBron* any good? Can the Pelicans get him?

Truth. After the Heat/Pelicans game the reporter bitch was like "We saw you and LeBron hugging after the game, what did you guys say to eachother?" And he just said "We said good game." And then the reporter bitch awkwardly stood there.

The **** kind of answer you want *****?

Well I only found ish like a few months ago so I don't really know what he was sayin last year, but I've seen him trash lebron plenty of times and he doesn't try to make up bs excuses for him like most of his stans, and he seems to be a huge wade fan aswell :confusedshrug: so idk

What? LOL! I was blaming LeBron for each and every **** up. I only started praising him after the Heat won the chip Also, he's on the Heat. Why the **** would I not support him? Just because I like a player, who's playing for the Heat doesn't mean that I'm that players stan. ****ing retard.

Do you do post anything other than attacking other posters on this board? Stupid ignorant ******.

P.S. I'm more of a Wade stan.

:rolleyes:

Your right. I should be more like you. I would have to dedicate 90% of my life on this forum and post over a thousand comments in less than 2 months, most of which would be troll posts. I would have to ride Lebrons dick and make it clear that it is my primary goal in life to one day fondle his nuts@ck in my mouth, just like you.

Difficult but achievable. I'll make an effort to try and fulfill the above so I can lead a exhilarating life identical to yours. lol jks u no-life f@ggot

See this is what I hate about the current NBA. It's all buddy buddy. Back in the 80's it was all about rivalries. Now you invite each other after every game to grab a bite. Your ****ing enemy :facepalm

I wish it was Davis knocking out Lebron in the game and end this friendly shit

[dunksby]

LeBron must be a great mentor, he is so good those he mentors come back to beat him soon after :lol

They aren't gladiators, you ****ing moron. They're human beings with emotions and all. LeBron and KD might be buddies, but you don't see it on the court. They go all out every game. The same when Wade and LeBron played against each other. Those two would joke during TO's but once play resumed, they delivered. Same with Wade and Kobe. They're friends, but once they're on the court, they give it their all.

I was a lurker for over a year until Jeff opened registration in Jan so I've had to read your dribble, along with others, without being able to reply.

Stalk you? It is you who who quoted my post and others in the past FIRST with one of your ridiculous smilies in the first place, idiot.

Troll? You're a self-confessed Lebron stan. Your happiness is dependent on a another man. If someone wanted a definition of the word "p#ssy" or "beta" through a pic, yours would be perfect.
