Furthermore, he discussed the only thing he lacks, talking about the flopping he does. One time Iman asked James about it, and he explained that he has to get the free throws, saying if the other player gets it, James is gonna get hit. Considering his physical appearance as strong, people cannot see it.

Following that, he commented that James works hard in every game as it takes a day or two to get some rest. Other than that, he concluded that no one has been so disciplined and faithful towards the game.

When he loses, there is a misconception that he is not operating at his fullest capacity, but he is actually doing his best, as this is his style. James is known for playing the right way.
