LeBron James got the winning mentality from 100% Real Eagles QB Jalen Hurts 

Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James is the definition of a winner. It takes a special mindset to play at such a high level all these years, and it looks like Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts has the same mindset as The King.

Speaking to reporters Thursday, Hurts responded to criticism that opposing defenses could figure out Philly’s game plan. Here is a quote:

“When won it didn’t matter?” Hurts told reporters.

“What I am telling you is not about me; it concerns us. There are many ways to win, Hurts added.

“Keep it the most important thing, where winning is the only thing that really matters,” he said.

Hurts went on to explain how the Eagles aren’t “stuffed” yet, even at 2-0, because things aren’t adding up. And even though he’s not playing at an MVP level yet, the wins are what matter most. LeBron James reacted to the interview and emphasized how “few people really understand” what Hurts means:

It is special. Wins are wins, and it doesn’t matter if they’re pretty. Hurts doesn’t care about individual accolades. It’s just about getting the job done. LeBron was no different in the playoffs last season. He didn’t average 30 PPG, but the Lakers thrived as a group. Everyone around The King did their part.

Hurts completed 71.4% of his passes for 363 yards in two contests. He threw for just two touchdowns against one interception and was sacked seven times. Instead, the Eagles’ running game was the main source of offense. But then again, it doesn’t matter that Hurts isn’t playing the star. The results are there.

LeBron James might get 20 PPG in 2023-24, but if the Lakers win a championship because all the role players graduate and Anthony Davis steps up, he’ll be happy.
