LeBron James is a symbol of the basketball world and is already ranked 21st behind him this season.. For a star of his stature, there is little to remember, and he left a few moments for newspaper archives, like his four championship rings and the highlight-reel performances he still continued to deliver in every game.Because even though it is Sixth player in NBA history to serve 21 seasons, second only to Andre Iguodalahe still had the rope left. If he plays all 22 seasons, he will become the NBA’s most played player.
Although he seemed to be able to say “so far” at the end of last season, he dispelled various rumors and defined the 2024 Paris Olympics as his next great goal. He said he was inspired by the heart problem his son suffered last summer: “I talk to my family and myself. I’m inspired by seeing the kids grow. I feel like I still have a lot in the tank. I’m excited to come back for another year”.
Until then, he will face this season as the heart and soul of the Los Angeles Lakers.In fact, it’s a reference to people in Los Angeles He averaged nearly 36 points per game, making people forget that he is 38 years old and surpassing Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s record. He must win his second championship with the Lakers (the first was in 2020), which would be the fifth of his career, as he previously won two in a row with the Miami Heat championships (2012 and 2013), and with the Cleveland Cavaliers (2016).
In the last World Cup event, Steven Kerr’s side were relegated to fourth place after losing to eventual champions Germany in the semi-finals..It is for this reason Next year’s Paris Olympics will be a challenge not only for LeBron, but also for the national team.
It is worth remembering in this subject that Team USA has dominated in ridiculous fashion: seven of the past eight gold medals, and four of the past four in a row. In other words, they have won 16 of the 20 Olympic Games they have hosted. Notably, as far as Los Angeles is concerned, he competed in three Olympics and won titles in two of them: Beijing 2008 and London 2012. It was at the 2004 Athens Olympics that he criticized the team’s participation: “I don’t think there was enough respect in Athens for what the Olympics stood for and what it meant to play for Team USA.”
