He slayed his demons and won...all is forgiven except the d-bag way he left Cleveland...but even that's further and further in the rearview mirror.

Agree, plus losing the "woe is me" attitude, him and Wade had last year.

Spain apparently not interested in winning?

Exactly.

Gold medal, NBA title, NBA Finals MVP, Regular Season MVP....not a bad year for LeBron.

Yah. Couple more seasons like that, and he'll be almost in the same neighborhood as MJ.

By the time he's going for his 3rd gold medal in Rio, him and MJ will be neck and neck for GOAT.

I like LeBron, but even if he gets his 3rd gold, he needs to get a few more NBA titles as well before he can be the GOAT.

He has all the tools to be that, but he still has to get more mentally tough, however, he has made great strides in that area this season.

LeBron has been the best player in the NBA for a few year, but he has elevated himself to another level this year.

Lebron has jordan like stretches....but hes not jordan...and its not really fair to compare him....there will never be another jordan. If im building a team though I pick Durant 1a, and lebron would be a close 2nd choice. Durant is one of the most impressive players I have ever seen.

I too enjoyed watching Durant take over and dominate LeBron's team in the Finals....oh wait.
