Reflecting on the alley-oop, which he initially questioned as a risky move, James humorously remarked, “I chose to throw a low hook pass lob to a 40-year-old, and when I threw it, I didn’t think it was a good idea.” His self-deprecating humor continued as he expressed a wish that he could have played with Reaves a decade earlier, suggesting he would have thrown even more outrageous passes back then. “I would have thrown the craziest. Set me back three days, set him back three days,” he quipped, bringing a jovial atmosphere to the discussion.
