LeBron James has been in the NBA for the last 18 years. It is fair to say he is still going strong. At 37, he has numbers better than guys 10 years younger than him. Although the Lakers have not been able to capitalize on this typical, vintage LeBron stuff yet the King just keeps on delivering.

James has been in the GOAT debate along with Michael Jordan for a long time now. His longevity is unmatchable and his prime never seems to stop. Even though obviously his age catches up to him on some days when he is not in top form, he still shows glimpses of the absolute unstoppable, ruthless, and match-winning prime.

At 37, LeBron is still emphatic, has the same boss-mentality, and plays his game with complete authority. Every player has his bad days, but you can never write off a player like LeBron James.

Every once in a while, a few players stand out and impact the league as no one else has during that time. That is called a player’s prime. Be it a year, a season, a decade. For some players, their prime leaves a mark on the league with influence reaching multiple generations, while some are left behind being underrated and turn out to be just as important for the sport of basketball.

Now, who is to say for sure which year of which player is better than some other year of another player? Reading that was quite difficult, wasn’t it? So are these comparisons. But all the comparisons are fair. We can compare performances, years, and seasons to judge which player exceeded the bar of brilliance.

A single player can win his team championships and that goes to show how good a player he is. However, sometimes an individually superficial season or year does not guarantee championships because, after all, basketball is still a team game. Either way, even being in contention of something like this means that we are talking about greatness, and LeBron James is never far from the top.
