It’s almost a shame that James has now become the NBA’s leading scorer. It’s nowhere close to the most interesting thing about him
There are no more firsts in sports, but there are still ways in which the most familiar tropes can be honed. James wasn’t the first prodigy, but no one before or since has delivered so fully on so unreasonable an amount of promise.
I once stumbled into the closet-sized visitor’s locker room at Scotiabank Arena as James was getting stretched out on the floor. He was lying on a yoga mat in the doorway. You had to walk around him. So for 25 years, the only place James has been able to hide is in his house. The internet is on 24 hours a day. The only shelter he’ll ever get is in retirement. Yet the guy just keeps plugging away.
He hasn’t always said or done the right thing, but there are no lasting outrages among his near-constant stream of pronouncements. In two weeks, Brady’s gone from titan of his profession to sad dad putting thirst traps on Instagram. This is what talking can do to you if you’re not good at it.
