LeBron James is one of the most accomplished players in the league currently. There is no other NBA player who currently has 4 championships. His longevity is at another level, and even at 36 years old, LeBron James still finds ways to dominate games. His athleticism isn’t what it was in his prime, but LeBron James has found ways to continue staying on top.
Malik Monk has recently lauded LeBron James, claiming that he is the GOAT. Monk added that James is the Michael Jordan of our generation, and stated that he is “blessed” to share the same court as James. While a lot of people believe Michael Jordan is the GOAT, LeBron James is certainly one of the people that is viewed as having a case for the title.

Malik Monk on LeBron’s performance:
“That’s what he does. That’s why he’s the GOAT."

There is no doubt that LeBron James does some spectacular things on the basketball court. His combination of athleticism, size, and playmaking isn’t something that you find in every prospect. He is still playing at an extremely high level, and he’s clearly got a lot of juice left in the tank.
LeBron James may have dropped 39 points against the Indiana Pacers today, but hopefully, the Los Angeles Lakers won’t need him to do that every night. The Lakers were viewed as one of the favorites for the title this year, but thus far, they have looked nothing like the championship squad many predicted them as being. They need to figure things out, and their recent win was a good step towards that goal.
There is definitely time for LeBron James to add more awards and accolades to his resume. There is still a chance that he wins the title this year, and that will certainly make the GOAT debates a lot closer. We’ll see whether that happens, but it’s never wise to count out LeBron James.
