Lakers have enjoyed a resurgence in the past week and they have won their past four games on the trot.
James – a four-time MVP – has been central to the Lakers’ recent success although their defense has been more solid thanks to new boy Tyson Chandler.
And Chandler has revealed how James, who has come under fire for missing some costly free throws for the Lakers, has evolved over the years.
He said: “He’s grown so much. I think after that finals he really started to evolve and change his game.
“Of course from the moment he stepped into the league, he’s been one of the best players in the league and then grown into the best player in the league, but I think at that time, we saw some things on film and put together some defensive plans to try and guard him in different ways.

“Then the following year he had none of those flaws. So clearly he’s an incredible student of the game and continues to get better as he gets older.
“And then I had the opportunity to play with him on the Olympic team in London, and I couldn’t believe how much better he got just in those couple of years.
“He just led that team, played 1-5, guarded 1-5, he led practice every day. I just couldn’t believe what I was seeing.
“And he was then fresh off of a championship, and the Olympics and all that is literally only weeks later.
“I couldn’t believe the type of level he was playing at for that long.”
Lakers currently hold an 8-6 record going into their clash with the Magic.
