If we are ranking what makes LeBron James the most significant basketball player in the post-Michael Jordan era, having the all-time scoring title is at best a distant second, DanWolken writes.
When will LeBron James pass Kareem Abdul Jabbar for most points all-time in NBA history?
But with one of the most hallowed individual records in sports soon his, and probably for a long time to come, history should settle on a different narrative: LeBron, in fact, was the Superteam. The Superteam was whichever one he chose to play on. And becoming the NBA’s all-time leading scorer, as important as it will be regarded by all basketball fans, should be seen as a byproduct of a career that was designed to chase different achievements.
Fans may have been turned off by “The Decision” when James went on television and proclaimed that he was taking his talents to South Beach, but more than a dozen years later they have bought into this paradigm of the NBA as well. We can see this daily on social media simply by the prominence of people like ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski and others who compete with him, trying to out-scoop one another on any signing, trade or other piece of roster movement.
