The Lakers' superstar has crafted an NBA legacy chock full of championships, trophies and more.
ncluding the playoffs, no one in the NBA scored more points than LeBron James in the last 10 years. He started the decade 124th on the league’s all-time scoring list. He now ranks No. 3 on the all-time scoring list and No. 2 Karl Malone and No. 1 Kareem Abdul-Jabbar are well within reach.
As he turns 36 today, James is fresh off being named the Associated Press’ male athlete of the decade for a record-tying fourth time. To date, he has four NBA championships, four Finals MVPs, four NBA MVPs, 16 All-NBA selections, 16 All-Star selections, the 2003-04 Rookie of the Year award and three All-Star MVPs, too. He has left an indelible mark on three NBA franchises — the Cleveland Cavaliers, the Miami Heat and now, the Los Angeles Lakers — while piling up all manner of statistical milestones along the way.
There are the eight straight Finals trips, the ending of Cleveland’s championship drought and so many more moments that have made James an icon in NBA lore. Here’s a look back at some of the plays and on-court moments that marked James’ success in each of those stops.
How does a guy who is a multi millionaire, movie and TV producer, and sports idol claim racism?..................
The NBA chose to make anti-American messaging a core part of its product, with inarticulate thug LeBron James taking a lead role in the effort.
There’s no good reason to reward this contempt for my country and me with my eyeballs or my money. Don’t watch it. Don’t buy products from its sponsors or licensees.
Because a few old white guys somewhere dont to waste 3 hours of their lives watching him run about with a childs ball.
But if I'm starting a team tomorrow and I have to choose the one player who will be the face of my team for their entire career, I'm choosing LeBron every day of the week. At 36 years old, LeBron is overall still the best player in the NBA and shows no signs of slowing down, while when Jordan was 36 he was on his second retirement and making awful moves as President of the Wizards.
It's just the way I feel now that we have the benefit of hindsight over both the careers of these two great players.
Q. Why do never ask LeBron James for change for a dollar?
A. Because he’ll only give you three quarters.
Kobe Bryant was much more comparable to Jordan. Both men were tough competitors, but managed to win multiple championships and become the greatest players of their respective eras without coming across as complete jerks to the average fan.
Lebron is in a class with cow turds.

I care just enough to comment that I don’t care.
He useless bum makes a lot of money of slave labor in China. It doesn’t seem to bother him in the least.
GOAT = Wilt Chamberlain. He was as dominant in his time as Babe Ruth.
I am filing this under WHO CARES???
LeBron James employs more slaves than any Southern Plantation owner ever hoped to.
..I see what you did there...
That’s the best way to describe him. Unpleasant. He’s not fun to watch, as simple as that.
Michael Jordan will always be the greatest.
True that. Le bron is simply extremely unlikable & a narcissist.
arrogant pos...low intelligence...hates the slaves in China but loves the money....gets away with all sorts of bb fouls and nobody says nothing, kind of like the fraud election....
so true
