Summary

Kyle and Seerat get together to celebrate LeBron James's legacy on the cusp of him overtaking Kareem Abdul-Jabbar as the NBA's all-time scoring leader.

They then dig into many of the key chapters and moments of his career, and the personal adjustments he made to stay healthy for so long (18:30). They end the pod by assessing his current state with the Lakers and speculating on his future (59:33). Hosts: J. Kyle Mann and Seerat Sohi Associate Producer: Chris Sutton Production Supervision: Benjamin Cruz and Conor Nevins *The Ringer NBA squad is coming to Salt Lake City for NBA All-Star Weekend!
