James, Wade, Anthony, and Paul have remained some of the top players in the league since their respective debuts. While Melo and D-Wade have hung their sneakers, James and Paul are still active players in the league.
LeBron is still considered to be the best player on the Lakers. On the other hand, CP3 may finally come off the bench for the first time in his career after getting traded to the Golden State Warriors.
LeBron James Wants Respect From Fans
Apart from posing for the legendary picture, LeBron James gave a memorable speech at the 2023 ESPYs.
After announcing his return to the NBA, James went on to demand the respect of fans. He believes fans should respect him regardless of whether they love or hate him.
“Listen, you can love me and I know some of you hate me as well,” James said. “But the one thing you will always do is respect me and appreciate the way I approach the game and what I’ve given to this game.”
James has been in the league for 20 years and he certainly deserves his flowers. He will enter the 21st season of his glorious career. Can the King win another ring? Or will he retire from playing 21 years in the NBA? We will find out over the course of the new season.
