Honestly who even cares if he’s top 10 or not. The fact that he’s carrying a storied franchise in the lakers on his back at his age, with the minutes he’s playing and the role that he has, is just completely mind boggling.
As with everything else Lebron has achieved, it’s ultimately gonna come down to whether he wins the ultimate prize in a championship. But you just can’t help but respect what he’s doing because it just wouldn’t be possible without the absolute dedication to train and invest in keeping his body and mind healthy. How many other players that are highly paid do we see investing in their longevity the way we’ve seen Lebron do? He’s probably the ultimate athlete in seeing the bigger picture on and off the court. You don’t have to be a Lebron stan to recognize it.
Right people make way too big a deal whether someone is #11 or #12 vs. #9 or #10, when who cares. That's pretty much the same value player and still fantastic to be doing in season 21, and the difference says more about what other players are doing.
Honestly I don't think it's reasonable to expect LeBron to win another chip. It isn't impossible that the Lakers do it this year but the rest of the league is so strong and their best player is 39 years old. Can we just appreciate how good he is without griping about his legacy or comparing him to Jordan?
its absolutely unreasonable to expect him to be able to carry this team to win a chip with his age and this team, especially with how loaded some teams are now. And thats what makes it so fucked, is there is a real chance he could because hes still so freaking good
Yeah, absolutely. If he somehow wins it all this year (or had done it last year) I think he's the greatest of all time no contest
