No way. I doubt it. LeBron can still play well but he’s getting more injuries as of late and clearly is being more careful. His game is being affected.
I know Tom Brady played to 45 (at the cost of his family), but being a QB and PF are different. I think LeBron goes until his son’s first year in the league and calls it after.
id bet against that timeline, but i like the drive.
#HE WANA PLAY 25 SEASONS
Schroder lives to tell LeBron’s secrets in German interviews.
If he does so that will be insane
He’s an elite starter in year 20. He will still be an effective PF, probably off the bench in year 25, and a Udonis Haslem type locker room vet in year 27
People actually think this dude can’t be an nba player for that long? He’s still averaging 26 a game, by then be 100% will be a solid contributor in the nba.
Please leave Los Angeles
Thanks for the downvote. You guys really love to see a traffic cone out there on defense for the next 7 years?
He could be in the league at 50 if he accepted a Udonis Haslem role on a vet minimum contract.
I hope so, can’t imagine not having bron in the league in 2-3 years
Bron wants to win a chip with Bronny lmao
Nah, I bet in a few seasons he is going to target his 60s just to play a few games with his grandson Brony the Third
I don’t know if Im ready to say the word “year 27”
if that happens he’ll get to like 45k points and possibly top 2 all-time in assists
Where do you buy those adorable baby beanies?
LeBron plans to play with grandson on the same team
I’ll be happy if Bron is still semi productive at the end of his contract. No way he does 5-7 more years unless he accepts a significantly reduced role in his 40s.
Lebron will never have a sharp decline. He’ll probably average 22-24 a game, 7-9 assists a game and 6-8 rebounds when he retires. He’ll play bad defense, rest a lot, and do a lot of playmaking on the floor, even more so than now.
I think he’s probably done making deep playoff runs and competing for championships, frankly. Of course I wish the team and him the best, but I’m just being real.
There’s a lot of young talent clumping together to make formidable teams. A bunch of players are averaging 30+ this year.
in a decade, when his explosiveness finally wanes, he’ll begin the second half of his career as Karl Malone
Lebron going to do everything humanly possible to hold on so he can play with/against not only Bronny, but also Bryce.
Longest NBA career is definitely on Lebrons list of records
