Veteran NBA player Carmelo Anthony knows a lot about LeBron James. Anthony and James were both drafted into the league in 2003. The two have played against each other many times and have become legends. Following Michael Jordan’s legacy, Anthony commented on James’ NBA “GOAT” status.
Anthony answered the question on the podcast about who he thinks cares more about becoming the greatest player of all time. He acknowledged that LeBron James has a legitimate sense of self-awareness about his place in the league. He then offered his thoughts on James’ mentality following Michael Jordan’s 90s dominance.
“I think Mike has done that. So Mike is the target … but then you see a young man who understands ‘(GOAT status) is what I’m here for,’ just like Jordan talked about getting those 11 rings ,” Anthony said via 7. PM from Brooklyn, a Wave Sports + Entertainment original.
James is inspired by Jordan’s legacy. Additionally, Anthony believes the longtime superstar understands his honor puts him in a position to speak to Jordan.
“So I’m going to be on a journey to be great, and at some point in that journey, if I do what I have to do, I’m going to have a conversation with my idol,” Anthony explained.
LeBron James has done a great job of inserting himself into the NBA GOAT conversation. His accomplishments are too numerous to list, but most notably, he is the NBA’s all-time leading scorer. He doesn’t have as many championships as Michael Jordan. However, he is still a good example to be compared to the legend.
James, 39, hopes to continue his legacy in 2024 and hopes to win his fifth championship with the Los Angeles Lakers.
