Everyone in the basketball world is talking about LeBron James since, the previous night, he became the best scorer in the history of the NBA.
With 38 points against Oklahoma, he reached 38,352 points, passing Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. After the match, in a conversation with the legendary Shaquille O’Neal, LeBron said that he would always choose himself as the best basketball player of all time.
“I’ll let others decide who it is; talk about it; it’s a good topic to chat about.” Personally, I’d pick myself before and against anyone who’s ever played the game, but everyone’s going to have their favorite; everyone’s going to make up their own mind. James said, adding:
“I know what I brought and what I bring every night—what I can do on the field.” “I always feel like I’m the best to ever play the game, but there are so many great players, and I’m just happy to be a part of that whole journey.”
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, the man who topped the list of scorers at the age of 39, addressed him with great words. He symbolically handed him the ball in the center of the “Crypto.com Arena” field.
His career is the career of a player who planned to dominate this game, so he has lasted almost twenty years. He has to be given credit for the way he played and how long he lasted. “He has that indefinable essence called leadership,” Kareem Abdul-Jabbar said.
LeBron admits that he thought a lot about how he would achieve that record.
