The simple answer is, yes. But the reason is more shocking... hes gonna milk this thing because he KNOWS... that once he retires, his "impact" will fade real fast and ppl will move on from his career faster than MJ's.
Now 22 seasons Lebron is 40yrs old running and jumping like he's in his early 30's 😂Meanwhile all his draft mates are long retired. Even the draft class after his has long retired and after that 😂. Yall don't find that suspicious. Yall can't see what's going on
Yea he takes care of his body better than everybody else from the beginning. Remember when dwade was clowning Lebron for icing his legs..maybe he shoulda took care of his body the same way, but also Lebrons just different
He'll be playing 24 years with only 4 rings with the most Allstar help in NBA history 😂😂😂,,,, his longevity is definitely hurting his legacy,, I kept saying he should've retired after 2020 after he won that mickey mouse ring
Lebron's career is equal to a mechanic that takes 20 weeks to fix your car but claims he's the best because he works on it longer than other mechanics.
He is actually hurting his legacy. No one is afraid of playing against him. LeBron haven’t been the best player in the League for at least 8 seasons now. Every body eats in the so called James error. He needs to just retire.
lebron still a great passer and can bully his way thru the rim cause of how strong he is.. but if we being real lebron stopped playing defense possession by possession since he left miami but he picks and choose cherry picks his chase down blocks just to make it look like he playing defense.
@@MAXIMA347 No. They literally do surgeries better. KD should be out of the League after his injury. Medications for faster recovery. And illegal HGH. That's how players are lasting longer. Load management doesn't work.
Im a kobe fan, but lets look at his last 6 seasons 2011 swept in 2nd round 2012 gentleman swept in 2nd round 2013 swept in first round 2014 only played 6 games, missed playoffs 2015 only played 35 games, missed playofs 2016 missed playoffs. The only hoghlights of his last 6 seasons were: Passing Jordan on the all-time scoring list Passing Jerry west to become second all time in laker assists A 60 point game for his final game Kobe's last 6 seasons were stat padding on average to below average teams. I expect lebron to retire in 2026, and his last 6 seasons will end up looking similar to kobe's last 6, except maybe less injuries
In 2011 and 2012 we were still top 3 in the western conference going for championships. We just faced two teams that were really good in those 2nd rounds. 2013 Kobe was still the best player in the league with Lebron, but because of the Achilles tear he didn't get a chance to play in the playoffs and maybe make a finals run
How are you a Kobe fan? Even a non-Kobe fan would know that he wrecked his Achilles before the end of the 2013 season, hence he wasn’t swept in the 1st round.
2013 Kobe got injured and wasnt a all star player after, the team wasnt built to win anymore, he was trying to pass jordan in the all time scoring list. I won't call it stat padding, when lebron was in kobe situation 2018-2019, the media made excuses and pressured the team to trade the young talent for superstar even though before Lebron's injury, they were a winning team. Kobe in 2014-2016 is in the same scenario as Curry now, no is gonna making excuses or care that their teams are championship level. Its only Lebron b/c of his disgusting fanbase, bronsexuals
2012-13 Kobe’s season was amazing played his heart out on offense and more importantly DEFENSE he was playing 40+ mins guarding other teams best player every night while Lebron has been load managing playing zero defense since Miami days
“Impact transcend the nba”?say what?what impact?what has lebron transcend?smh these lebron fans says the most nonsensical bullshit smh lebron hasn’t transcended a damn thing on or off the court
@@goatcasthoopsnah he hasn’t transcended anything. He’s been protected by the media , Nike, and the league. Only the young are excited by lebron james, while adults and even basketball greats have far less consideration for lebron’s career. People know how hard lebron actually chases clout. Like, who throws their own “Greatest of All Time” party?? There’s a reason why there are those who don’t put much respect on lebron’s name……………
I think the media and haters will ruin your career not longevity. Maybe his not the best but his one of the best and it's tough to swallow that from other players and fans.
His legacy is all opinions....you either think it hurt his legacy (mainly because you're a hater) or you think his legacy is great and he's the GOAT because you're a fanboy. And there are those that are neither and some say his legacy was great and some that don't think it was great but it's not set in stone.
MJ made 6 finals in 15 years. Bron 10 finals in 22 years. Bron has a better chance of leading a team to a finals than MJ does of hitting a wide open three pointer homie. Also, the ring argument is nonsensical and for casuals. Bill Russel has 11 chips, does that mean Russel, dude that played 60 years ago, will always be the best player?
@@howsittastesif the the ring argument is nonsensical since it’s a team accomplishment then using the making 10 finals is also nonsensical since it’s a team accomplishment. This is your flawed logic not mine. 😂
@@howsittastesLebron in the 2007 finals shot 35.7 percent from the field and 20 percent from 3 in one of the worst finals performances of all time. Lebron in the 2011 finals after forming an ultra superteam big 3 got outscored by a bench player in Jason terry for the entire duration of an nba finals. Lebron also had the luxury of playing in the weakest eastern conference of all time from 2011 too 2018 where the only good team he faced was an aging Celtics team. Lebron’s conference finals competition I was a pacers team lead by a baby Paul George and Roy hibbert, a hawks team lead by korver Teague milsap and horford , a Celtics team lead by a rookie jayson Tatum and 2nd year Jaylen brown, a raptors team lead by Lowry and derozan, a Celtics team lead by 5-9 Isaiah Thomas and Avery Bradley lmao this is some of the worst competition in nba history and it’s no coincidence Lebron has been struggling mightily in the west missing the playoffs or barely squeaking in routinely. Lebron has zero case for being the goat
@@tigeranthony I think he means that Lebron was once beloved by many (hero). But many fans have become exhausted with his LeOffense, and LeGM (villian)
I think he’s fine being number one in three point percentage last season every player in the world would give up anything to have the longevity Lebron has
@@Letmerant1 getti blac coaches fired, no defense, tradin hella players throughout the yrs (help), narratives, lyin, fraud, draftin brunny savannah ramone shames, bein the gm, walkin away frum live games when the scrubbs were gettin curb stomped out of the arena, throwin folk under the bus.😁😁
@@Letmerant1nah we’re talking abt him whining when he doesn’t get his way, throwing teammates under the bus, and jumping ship to other teams when he destroyed the future of the one he was previously on. Hope this clears things up!
As long as LeBron can continue to add to his scoring record and other stats Putting up 20 to 25 points a game he will be fine because him his fans and the LeBron media has been able to somewhat change the narrative to longevity being more important and the criteria even though Jordan still has a full Hall of Fame career over LeBron and he did it in a much less time the only thing that can possibly make his fans turn on him is if he declines rapidly and only score 10 to 15 points again
It's okay not to quit or retire early man, I think James could play until he reached 50+ and still score, flop and travel. Because the NBA is very easy now, No defense, No more real competition.
3 titles plus a Covid title in what will be 22 years and being the gm for the last 15. Great player. Too 5 perimeter player as hard to compare centers to perimeter players
Longevity is his calling card. In what world was age 22-32 lebron better than 22-32 Jordan? Same thing with tom brady. There is no world pre age 32 that Tom is a top 5 all time qb but he is easily the best post age 32 and that is what catapulted him up the ladder
I disagree with the Brady stuff. In 2006, Brady was 29 & he was already constantly compared to Montana similar to Manning being compared to Marino. The following season, after the trades for Moss & Welker, he threw 50td’s & 8 picks, with a 16-0 record, and at that point was 14-2 in the postseason. If the Pats beat the Giants with a great Brady performance , many were ready to proclaim him the Goat QB
@@rackball5858 the mark of a great qb to me is the fear of inevitability the opposition feels at the end of the game they are ahead that they still won’t win. Brady had that aura way later than Montana, Elway, others is my point. I mean Brady was not very special until after some super bowl wins. That is a strange thing to think about. Obviously he was good to get them but he wasn’t the key to those teams but man did he take those lessons and deliver later in his 30s and beyond with most of the legendary stuff happening after the ages of other greats being retired or physically not having much left in the tank

It's not even longevity. The kid takes too many possessions off and just makes layups and open jumpers occasionally when he doesnt outright build a brick house.
"longevity is not a factor".... you do not need to eat the whole casserole to say that dish is deliciuos, you only a need spoon, a bowl or plate to be able to taste how delicious the dish is. just one game each on the most crucial game of their lives you can tell whose the best....THATS MJ all day
To me, this is a more than arguable topic. The thing with LBJ is that he still loves the game too much, so it is really hard for him stepping down. Plus seeing how he can still dominate the game - If he is rested. Anyway what ever i still love how he plays, and see him easy Top 5 of all time. Greets
Nice video. But, the league isn’t going away from LeBrons strengths. The league is actively trying to cater to him. He hasn’t been a top 5 player for what? 6 years?
Michael Jordan missed 7 games AS A BULL, let that sink in, and played 82 at 40 ... Lebron has missed almost 4 complete seasons if you add up the games .... and played 82 games once, of course he can play so long lolll..... it's a facade ... just like his competitiveness...
What’s hurting his so-called legacy is his inability to WIN the CHAMPIONSHIP. No player has ever been more consumed by STATS than James. The FACTS aren’t on his side. All-time leader in turnovers, missed shots, and the mind numbing 107 losses in the playoffs also an all-time record. So what does it matter that he’s scored over 40K if it hasn’t contributed to winning championships.You CAN NOT have a 40% record in championships and be considered the GOAT in any sport, or profession for that matter. It’s delusional to think so. He also hasn’t been league MVP since 2012. Manufactured media driven narrative that he is something a true fan of the GAME can see he’s CLEARLY NOT! ✌️
That was always my argument.... would you rather have a guy that gets you 6 championships in 13 years worth of games or a guy that gets you 4 in 20+ years.... regardless of longevity stats I think sports are about the impact that a player has on the game... getting a bunch of stats that don't lead to wins mean nothing. Ask Russell Westbrook.🤣🤣🤣 I remember Ron Mercer averaged over 20 points for the Bulls one year and he was in the papers talking about he had a good season and should've been an Allstar.... as the team didn't even win 20 games😂 .. safe the say he got traded that summer. Your personal numbers are never more important than team success. Lebron is a Stat padder not a winner, he had to team up with a winner (D. Wade) because he don't have that dog in him like the greats. Lebron aint even top 10 on my list, ion know how mfs got him over Kobe, Duncan, Magic, Bird, Russell and other mfs that dominated their peers rather than just getting their numbers
Dude. How exactly did Kobe go out gracefully? Because he scored 60 points on 50 shots during his final game? The lakers hadn’t made the playoffs for years and Kobe was injured for his last 2 seasons. Also, MJ didn’t go out gracefully, Magic didn’t, Malone didn’t, Ewing didn’t, Barkley didn’t, Shaq didn’t. Brons averaging 25,5,5 at 40 years old bro. That’s about as graceful as it gets..
Agreed! No one gives a shit about anything Lebron is doing. He’s hurting the game and his legacy by his selfishness and ego building. He doesn’t respect the game, his teammates or those that played before him.
Do ppl really think playing longer makes it less impressive?? 😂😂 Yall really moving the goal posts. He was good enough to come in and play men at 18 and still good enough to play against ppl half his age and somehow it's hurting his legacy? 😂
He can play as long as he wants, but if you want me to call you the GOAT your returns have to warrant that, if you constantly losing or failing to be competitive on a team that you’re the focal point of, you lose some points
@@Letmerant1no it doesn’t 6 NBA Finals losses doesn’t sound like GOAT material, most turnovers all time doesn’t sound like GOAT material, and most playoff losses doesn’t sound like GOAT material. What are you smoking?
@@Letmerant1 He is top in turnovers and will eventually become top in missed shots 🤷♂️. This will eventually display the truth about longevity and why it is not a sound argument for being the Goat. You can't just glaze on the benefits of longevity and blindly ignore its consequences and implications.
Longevity didn't ruin MJ who was 40, longevity didn't ruin Kareem, longevity didn't ruin Vince Carter at 42 or udonis haslem at 42 , so how would longevity ruin Bron legacy, Bron legacy is set everything else is just gravy ❗🤔🙄
@@goatcasthoopshe is signed up for 2025-26 with a option but the only person worried about his legacy which is already set everything he is doing after is just because he loves the game no other reason!🤔🙄
@@goatcasthoops 1st of all , it's not an individual sport , AI never won a ring , Lillard no ring , T Mac no ring ... but their legacies are there and rightfully so. 2nd playing longer might not always add to the legacy but it should never subtract from it . 3rd Just because Jordan quit early , it doesn't mean that it's the right way or the only way for a superstar to do it .4th if a player wants to play and have great moments late in his career , it's his right and there shouldn't be a risk of ruining his legacy ... His legacy is definitely safe , maybe not safe from casuals though
None of those players are considered among the greatest but their games are absolutely respected, appreciate your opinion and no where did I say my opinion is fact, it’s all about what you value, no where did I say that longevity IS hurting his legacy but I gave reasons why it COULD and stand by that.
"Sustsained execelllence"? He's the all time leader in turnovers and will soon be the all time leader in missed shots. OH!!! Also he is 4 - 6 in the NBA championships. So tell me how exactly he is substaining "execellence"? 😂🤣😅😆
@@goatcasthoops yeah, he's alright. Beig on steroids does help, especially with the longevity part. Anyone who thinks he isn't in steroids is delusional.

Ask Russell Westbrook.🤣🤣🤣 I remember Ron Mercer averaged over 20 points for the Bulls one year and he was in the papers talking about he had a good season and should've been an Allstar.... as the team didn't even win 20 games😂 .. safe the say he got traded that summer. Your personal numbers are never more important than team success. Lebron is a Stat padder not a winner, he had to team up with a winner (D. Wade) because he don't have that dog in him like the greats. Lebron aint even top 10 on my list, ion know how mfs got him over Kobe, Duncan, Magic, Bird, Russell and other mfs that dominated their peers rather than just getting their numbers
Dude. How exactly did Kobe go out gracefully? Because he scored 60 points on 50 shots during his final game? The lakers hadn’t made the playoffs for years and Kobe was injured for his last 2 seasons. Also, MJ didn’t go out gracefully, Magic didn’t, Malone didn’t, Ewing didn’t, Barkley didn’t, Shaq didn’t. Brons averaging 25,5,5 at 40 years old bro. That’s about as graceful as it gets..
@@howsittastes he went out showing the world what got him there
Labron 22 years 4 titles, Magic Johnson 12 years 5 titles, longevity is hurting labron
LeRuin
Agreed! No one gives a shit about anything Lebron is doing. He’s hurting the game and his legacy by his selfishness and ego building. He doesn’t respect the game, his teammates or those that played before him.
No.
Do ppl really think playing longer makes it less impressive?? 😂😂 Yall really moving the goal posts. He was good enough to come in and play men at 18 and still good enough to play against ppl half his age and somehow it's hurting his legacy? 😂
He can play as long as he wants, but if you want me to call you the GOAT your returns have to warrant that, if you constantly losing or failing to be competitive on a team that you’re the focal point of, you lose some points
Again...Haters are just ridiculous!!!
It looks like LeBron can still play for 2-3 more years, so he'll end up playing about 24 seasons. 3.5 rings in 24 seasons does not sound GOAT material
4 rings number one scorer top 5 in assists top 5 in rebounds top 10 in blocks yea I thing he’s the greatest of all time
@@Letmerant1no it doesn’t 6 NBA Finals losses doesn’t sound like GOAT material, most turnovers all time doesn’t sound like GOAT material, and most playoff losses doesn’t sound like GOAT material. What are you smoking?
@@Letmerant1
lol
@@Letmerant1 He is top in turnovers and will eventually become top in missed shots 🤷♂️.
This will eventually display the truth about longevity and why it is not a sound argument for being the Goat. You can't just glaze on the benefits of longevity and blindly ignore its consequences and implications.
2 titles in 60 yrs in the association is nowhere near goat status.
LeRuined already
Lebron james is not Michael Air Jordan level
Longevity didn't ruin MJ who was 40, longevity didn't ruin Kareem, longevity didn't ruin Vince Carter at 42 or udonis haslem at 42 , so how would longevity ruin Bron legacy, Bron legacy is set everything else is just gravy ❗🤔🙄
Jordan played only two years after winning a championship, Kareem retired a season after winning his sixth, Vince and Udonis are not considered GOATs
@@goatcasthoops Kareem was 40 MJ was 40 LeBron will be 40 in December so what's his legacy going to be tarnished for 🤷
The purpose of the video was if he keeps playing, if this is his last year then that’s fine
@@goatcasthoopshe is signed up for 2025-26 with a option but the only person worried about his legacy which is already set everything he is doing after is just because he loves the game no other reason!🤔🙄

Bunch of haters
No hate
Main get off here with that ,we know lebron do you think we know you are a hater please
No hate
Saying that longevity hurts someone's legacy is insanely stupid
Did Jordan’s Wizards years help his legacy? Did Hakeem’s? Did Ewings?
@@goatcasthoops You are comparing apples to oranges dude
I’m confused on how playing a long time and not winning, which is the whole purpose of being an athlete for a sport, helps your legacy
@@goatcasthoops 1st of all , it's not an individual sport , AI never won a ring , Lillard no ring , T Mac no ring ... but their legacies are there and rightfully so. 2nd playing longer might not always add to the legacy but it should never subtract from it . 3rd Just because Jordan quit early , it doesn't mean that it's the right way or the only way for a superstar to do it .4th if a player wants to play and have great moments late in his career , it's his right and there shouldn't be a risk of ruining his legacy ... His legacy is definitely safe , maybe not safe from casuals though
None of those players are considered among the greatest but their games are absolutely respected, appreciate your opinion and no where did I say my opinion is fact, it’s all about what you value, no where did I say that longevity IS hurting his legacy but I gave reasons why it COULD and stand by that.
"Sustsained execelllence"? He's the all time leader in turnovers and will soon be the all time leader in missed shots. OH!!! Also he is 4 - 6 in the NBA championships. So tell me how exactly he is substaining "execellence"? 😂🤣😅😆
From a statistical perspective he is still fairly excellent at his age
@@goatcasthoops yeah, he's alright. Beig on steroids does help, especially with the longevity part. Anyone who thinks he isn't in steroids is delusional.
There’s definitely evidence pointing to that
@@goatcasthoops Thank you for atleast agreeing with me. You got yourself a new subscriber.
