What Makes a GOAT?
It’s June 19 and LeBron is almost certainly going to be wearing a different colored uniform next season. The man is 33-years-old and is no longer playing for league dominance—he’s achieved that multiple times, from his pure athletic superiority during his first Cavs run, to the fear the Heat spread across the league, to his transcendence into a basketball savant in his most recent stint in Cleveland. LeBron no longer has anything to prove. He’s shown that he is the best player in the present day NBA landscape. He’s shown that he is clutch, ending that myth when he beat a 73 win Warrior team with one of the greatest blocks of all time. He’s shown he’s a winner, clinching two rings in Miami and then a coveted third in Cleveland. He’s no longer in the arena with the likes of Kevin Durant, Stephen Curry, or James Harden. Now he is battling with something that may be impossible to defeat—the ghost of Michael Jordan.
