Everyone acting tough when Lebrons still here. Watch when he retires. Majority of basketball fans won’t want to watch anymore

Magic and Larry Bird retired, MJ retired, Kobe retired and LeBron will retire eventually too, everything will just move on.

After his current contract expires no team should sign him. He should go out like CP3

Why do they keep saying Ant Edwards and not Luka? Luka is way more popular and a much better player. Far more likely to inherit the position of “face of the league”

I agree with Perk, I drive 2hrs away to see LeBron play, I don’t see myself during that for Ant Man nor any of the young players. They don’t have that it factor. Hate or love him, LeBron is the last casual fan player.
