For Rashard, LeBron has always been capable of dominating, especially during the playoffs. LeBron James will undoubtedly go down in history as one of the greatest basketball players to ever grace NBA hardwood. Yet, “The King” continuously amazes fans and fellow athletes with his seemingly timeless s𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁s, athleticism, and unwavering determination. And for his former Miami Heat teammate Rashard Lewis, LeBron’s game reaches unbelievable heights in the playoffs, when the stakes are at their highest.

According to Lewis, he had never seen James fail to deliver, and his capabilities were truly limitless during the playoffs. For “Sweet Lew,” Bron is the type of player who doesn’t care about stats and is just focused on closing games. “I played against him in the playoffs, and he averaged 50 points. Playing with him at Miami Heat, I learnt a lot,” Lewis told Sportstar in 2019. “He can probably be MVP every year, average 40 to 50 points if he plays to win. When the playoffs start, he goes to another level. He is not a stats stuffer (follower), but cares about winning.”

LeBron is still overpowering everybody in year 21 Apart from Lewis, renowned sports analyst Bill Simmons is also one of those who has been keeping tabs on James’ legendary NBA career. Like Rashard, Simmons is also dumbfounded by how LeBron continuously defies the laws of time and physics.

In Simmons’ eyes, the four-time NBA MVP is already in season 21, but he has yet to show any signs of slowing down. That said, “The Sports Guy” admitted that he is now having a deeper appreciation for LeBron’s legacy. “You hit a different point of your career, but it was weird to see LeBron as athlete,” Bill recently said. “I mean, the only other person, I think, in the last 10 years who could have probably overpowered him was Giannis. But they never really played a big game against each other.”

“It was like, wow! It almost made me appreciate the Lebron era more because it’s like, wow, I took it. I took for granted that he was always the most overpowering person in any game, you know, especially when he got older, and he would just start kind of barrelin’ to the basket whenever he wanted, which is a s𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁 he still has this year,” he added. LeBron could prove that he is still The King This playoffs is another opportunity for James to once again prove that he is still highly capable of dominating the game. With the Los Angeles Lakers facing the defending champions, the Denver Nuggets, in the first round, now is the time for LeBron to live up to how Lewis and Simmons view at this stage of his career. Nevertheless, James will still be regarded as one of the most dominant players in NBA history, and that will remain a fact regardless of the outcome of the series.
