The greatest player in terms of top 10 in almost every stats and probably,if everything is alright and doesn't get injured himself in the next 2 or 3 years will break Kareem's record for most career points. Probably top 3 in GOAT list and he still can match Kareem for the 2nd place. And Skip pretended back then LeBron will never be in a Mount Rushmore of NBA?That is more ridiculous even when Max pretended that Kawhi is better shooter under pressure than Kobe R.I.P LEGEND!!!
