I was a lebron fan during his first Cavs stint, so it’s kinda surreal to think back to his first game 20 years ago. I also appreciate longevity so it’s amazing that he’s still playing at a high level. My favorite game of his from that era is game 5 against the pistons in the 07 playoffs. One of the best playoff performances in league history I’ve watched live.
For anyone who hasn’t seen it, you can go watch the highlights. But I’d highly recommend watching the game in full to just see how absurd he was down the stretch. He was unstoppable and hit many clutch jumpers when he wasn’t known for being a shooter back then at all.

Around long enough to experience the Kings as a playoff team twice.
Its crazier to me that he fathered and raised a kid who is now in college, within his career. When most guys retire their kids are still in high school at the oldest. Bronny (hopefully, given his health) might already be in the NBA by the time his dad hangs it up.
