LeBron James, not Michael Jordan, is greatest player in NBA history

LA Times  

Lakers star LeBron James is flanked by NBA Commissoner Adam Silver, left, and Lakers legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar after becoming the NBA’s all-time leading scorer Tuesday night. With his 36th point Tuesday night against the Oklahoma City Thunder, LeBron James passed Kareem Abdul-Jabbar to become the NBA’s all-time leading scorer and silence a decades-long debate. “I wouldn’t be me without all of y’alls help, all y’alls passion, all y’alls sacrifices,” he told the crowd and his loved ones, later adding: “I would never, ever in a million years dreamt this even better than what it is tonight..… F— man, thank you, guys.” In breaking a seemingly unbreakable record that has stood for nearly 39 years — as long as Babe Ruth once held the career home run record after his retirement — James has checked the last box on a resume that doesn’t just dominate basketball but defines it. LeBron James, left, passed Michael Jordan on the NBA’s all-time scoring list against the Denver Nuggets on March 6, 2019.
