Kevin Garnett believes that it is the extreme motivation that comes from LeBron James’ children that will make him play for the next four or five years. Recently, The Big Ticket and Paul Pierce, his championship-winning teammate, on “The Ticket and The Truth” speak of James’ unmatched longevity.
In fact, the Hall of Famer would still claim that Michael Jordan, the GOAT rival did not have such endurance and quality at this stage in his career.
Garnett stated:
Man, he played against Vince Carter, Paul Pierce, f*cking Kobe Bryant, Tracy McGrady. He built from the traditional. Bron from the old country. He graduated from this new joint, but he is from the old country. He built the old country. Lord, he has another 4-5 years if he wants this," He added "We finna get my sons in here. I am going to start a volleyball league for my daughter. Lord is just doing whatever. We have never seen it like this. Michael Jordan had it, but he ain't never had it like this.
Pierce also noted that James would probably play until his kid, Bryce got picked alongside him and also waited for his son, Bronny to be drafted into the league. This could only happen if James played into his 25th season. To the point, the last couple of years of James’s career have been spectacularly consistent in terms of quality.
LeBron James: An elite player in his 21st Season – Can he maintain his stellar performance?
Finally, Pierce stated that during year 25, as long as he remains in an average of twenty-two points, he would effortlessly foresee James scoring about sixteen points, eight rebounds, and eight assists, while still maintaining effective efficiency.
If there was ever a star, then it could be done by the elite Los Angeles Lakers player competing in his 21st season.
The four-time MVP is currently averaging 24.5 points, 9.2 rebounds and 6.3 assists through six games this season. The roster is concerningly plus 47 when he plays but minus 70 while he sits on the bench, indicating even more reliance on his individual effort despite the fact that he will turn 39 in less than a month.
