What are the expectations from the 4-time NBA Champion now?

LeBron is in his 18th year in the league and already carries the pressure to help the Lakers win their 18th NBA title. If that happens, the franchise will beat the Boston Celtics to become the most successful NBA organization ever with the most championship wins.

Apart from this, the 16-time NBA All-star and 4-time NBA MVP has already been in 14 postseasons and 10 NBA Finals. As a matter of fact, he still has 3 seasons to play for the Lakers and if all those lead him deep into the playoffs, his postseason records will almost turn invincible.

Do you think anyone will be able to better those numbers in the coming years?
