NBA juggernaut LeBron James has lost about ten pounds over a 67-day period. After a strict paleo diet, the second-time Cleveland Cavalier is looking slimmer. He also said he feels leaner, lighter and faster. James said that even though he feels great, he did have a few dreams of the Cookie Monster. Couple that with his new shoes, and LeBron and his Cavs might be unstoppable heading into the new season.
James bulked up in Miami, but he revamped his diet over the summer. Now James is ready to fly (via Cleveland.com):
"I haven't been in this weight class. ... I'm in the 250ish range, you know, a lot lighter than I've been playing at in the last few years. But I feel good. I had the Cookie Monster chasing me a few times in my dreams."
But cutting weight wasn't the only thing that has King James running faster and jumping higher. He's got some new kicks. The LeBron 12 by Nike is made with some crazy-ass space-age "Flywire" technology (via International Business Times):
"The new technology is lightweight. It allows me to explode. When I land, it allows me to absorb the landings. It's great."
