Much to the displeasure of Michael Jordan’s fans, many also consider LeBron James to be the greatest player in history.
Including his peers, with one saying there is only one way to unseat him.
Who is the GOAT of basketball? This question will probably remain unanswered forever due to its subjective nature. But for more and more active players, it is LeBron James who deserves this unofficial status.
Logical since they grew up following his exploits on television, while those of Michael Jordan, for example, date back to the 90s or even the 80s.
NBA legend but also former teammate of the winger, Chris Bosh won two titles with him in Miami.
For the Hall of Famer, retired due to health problems, there is no doubt that the four-time MVP is the greatest player of all time.
In 2021, he had already explained that there were not 36 solutions to get past him:
Chris Bosh favors LeBron in GOAT debate
To replace LeBron as GOAT, someone would have to play 18 seasons in their prime
The Chosen One’s longevity is undoubtedly what works most in his favor. He’s even 21 seasons into his career and last year, when he had already celebrated his 39th birthday, he was still averaging over 25 points and 8 assists per game.
CB1 has certainly not changed his mind since then… But opinions remain divided, of course.
Bosh knows basketball
To replace LeBron, someone would have to lose six Finals and hold his teammates accountable every time.
Chris Bosh already said it in 2021, LeBron James is according to him the best player of all time. We can therefore imagine that given the arguments that his ex-teammate put forward at the time, the Laker has only reinforced his point of view since then.
