AFTER HIS CAREER IS DONE HELL BE THE BEST NBA PLAYER IN HISTORY
LeBron James is not just good: he is considered to be the best to ever play the game of basketball by some analysts and scouts. While most do not agree with that, there is not one expert who has him outside of the top 3 basketball players in the history of the game, in company with Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant. LeBron has brought to the NBA something that has never been seen before: an elite combination of strength, size, and speed. With the strength of what some analysts claim to feel like a "600 pound steam-roller coming right at you," the speed to star on a great track team, and the size to bully anyone on the court, LeBron was seen as the heir, if not better, to Michael Jordan.
As a child, LeBron was given a miniature basketball hoop by his mother, which is where his love of the game began. He played constantly on the hoop and showed phenomenal skills at such a young age. While playing constantly over the summers and playing other top players in the nation on AAU teams, LeBron made a huge name for himself even before high school.
During high school, LeBron became a household name across the nation. Numerous NBA players, including Shaquille O'Neal, heard about this hyped teen and came to witness the kid themselves. It was during his Junior season, where he became the first player ever to receive the Gatorade National Player of the Year as a junior, that he earned the nickname "King James." He kept the same title as a senior, where he averaged 31.6 points, 9.6 rebounds, 4.6 assists and 3.4 steals for the St. Vincent-St. Mary Irish.
The 2003 NBA Draft was unanimously known as the "LeBron James" draft, as a few teams were questioned about purposely losing games to have better odds to draft him. There were no questions that he would be the #1 overall pick. The Cleveland Cavaliers were the lucky ones to select him, and in his first NBA game, he recorded 25 points, 9 assists, 6 rebounds,4 steals, and shot 60% from the floor against the Sacramento Kings, a top level team.
Let's run through his career accomplishments as of the 2009-2010 season, his seventh season in the NBA:
- He was the Gatorade National Player of the Year as a junior and senior in high school, the first player to ever do so twice
- He is one of four NBA rookies to average at least 20 points, 5 rebounds, and 5 assists a game (the others: Michael Jordan, Oscar Robertson, Tyreke Evans)
- He represented Team USA in the 2008 Olympics as the face of the "Redeem Team"
- He won the 2008 Olympic Gold Medal
- He is one of three players to average at least 30 points, 7 rebounds, and 7 assists a game
- He holds the record for youngest player to ever reach 1000 points, 2000 points, 3000 points, and so on until 15,000 (which is where he is currently at)
- He has won two straight MVP awards (2008-2009, 2009-2010)
- He has led the league in scoring (2007-2008)
- He was rookie of the year
- He has 6 all-star appearances (and counting)
- He has been NBA MVP of the All-Star game twice
- He has been four time NBA All-First Team
- He has been two time NBA All-Defensive First Team
These are his accomplishments only after 7 seasons in the NBA. Only a select few players have earned as many accomplishments in their entire career, and LeBron James has just entered his prime.
At this stage of his career, he is unanimously in the top 3 NBA players to ever play the game, along with Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant.

How long is a basketball career?
I would say, most basketball players get to live between the age of 65 -70 years old. comparing to the average men who get to live between 72 - 77. And this is due in the difference in height, the taller you are the shortest your life span would be. Most people whom get the chance to live into the hundreds aren't taller than 5'5"Ft . When have someone seen an 100 year old person over 6'0" ft. The average men in height in the USA is around 5'9" ft. Comparing to the average height of a basketball player which is around 6'6" ft.
There are multiple theories regarding height and life expectancy. Evidence suggests that elevated levels of growth hormone and insulin like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), present in taller people, accelerate aging and cancer risk. There is substantial evidence that this risk can be mitigated though diet (plant based diet, moderate protein, limited or no meat and dairy), and when done, tall people can live as long or longer than anyone else.
