Everyone takes the performance of 37-year-old James for granted, and even thinks that the second person in history should have such a performance at this age. This is the illusion of "not knowing the blessing in the midst of the blessed." Although no one has such a strong state at the age of 37 throughout history, many people are still unaware of the strength of the current James.
Because people are accustomed to the past and the present, and there will always be a "God" in people's hearts, this "God" is almost a perfect existence in people's hearts, and people will not easily admit that "God" is surpassed by whom. Of course, this "god" is not Jordan, but the "Jordan" who has been "deified" by people and has become a kind of faith.
Just like in this movie, if you replace the name of "Undefeated in the East" with "Jordan or Kobe", replace the blindly obedient "believer" with some "fans". Even if there is a strengthened version of Jordan Kobe bryant in the future, most people will feel that it is better than the "Jordan Kobe" in their hearts.
The truth is often in the hands of a few. James's current situation and the record when he retired, I dare not say that there is no successor, because everyone can't see the future and always "feel that they will be surpassed." As everyone knows, maybe James will be the "miracle" that fans talk about in N years! If you look at the three major pieces comprehensively, it is a little lower than Jabbar. Abdul-Jabbar has 14 points and James has 12 points, with career totals close and honors a little lower. Similar to Russell. Decades-old physical fitness, comprehensive technical ability from one to five, the ability to lead the team with its own system, coupled with the long-term stable output dominating the youngest score list of all grades, after retirement, the probability of 4W +1W+1W, I can't think of such an athlete in addition to Jordan who can rank ahead of him.
I hope that fans will have less prejudice and brainlessness towards James, watch more balls, and cherish the opportunity to witness history. When you're in your 40s, and you love basketball, say "I used to be a James fan, always watched him play, witnessed a lot of history...", which is far more comfortable and memorable than your current black James. "Brainless black" will not be remembered, and the great record will always be circulated.
