LeBron James has done the unthinkable. At age 40 and in his 22nd season, LeBron made yet another All-NBA Team. LeBron, thanks to his play, averaging 24.4 points, 7.8 rebounds, and 8.2 assists per game, was named to the All-NBA Second Team.

After the announcement came out, LeBron reacted on social media to making another All-NBA Team.

“All NBA at 40!! Low-key crazy to me right now,” wrote James. “Sitting here watching the playoffs, just thinking about it. Blessed beyond I can even imagine.”

LeBron certainly played great this season, especially for a 40 year old. We’ve never seen a player his age perform this well.

Still, his All-NBA Team selection may be not as deserving as it may seem. Out of all the other players selected to the three All-NBA Teams, LeBron was the only one who had a negative plus-minus rating.

This isn’t a good look, considering LeBron actually made his team worse while he was on the court. Still, LeBron certainly wasn’t the reason the Lakers were bounced out of the playoffs early.

LeBron still had a fantastic season. When you consider his age, it truly was remarkable.
