Quite the interesting take!

In this story:

LeBron James has held himself to an insane standard for the entirety of his NBA career and that has not changed during these last few years with the Los Angeles Lakers. He has remained among the top players in the league despite getting up there in age and having to switch up his play style to a certain degree.

He just broke Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's all-time scoring record and helped LA turn around their entire season to make a playoff run that landed them in the Western Conference Finals against the Denver Nuggets.

Even though they couldn't finish the job and make it all the way to the NBA Finals, everybody still recognized what The King was able to accomplish in year 20 and even his deepest haters respected what he was able to do when he teased potential retirement after the season. 

Nobody knows exactly how much longer he'll be able to continue playing at this level but everything he does at this point only helps his legacy. James already has four championships to his name, a number of ridiculous records and a resume that shows he changes every franchise he goes to for the better.

His biggest foe on the all-time list remains none other than Michael Jordan and he will continue to be as the older generations will always favor him. However, Jordan's own trainer recently touched on why he believes the Chicago Bulls legend remains above James and it doesn't have much to do with basketball production.

“We’ve all heard stories about individuals getting robbed for their Jordans. Have you ever heard a story of anyone getting stuck for a pair of Brons?”

We all know that Jordans are among the best-selling sneakers of all time and they quite literally were Nike's first basketball shoe. LeBron's own signature shoe is strictly for on the court versus Jordans which are viewed as more of a streetwear shoe now.
