If comparisons are odious in the world of basketball, let’s no longer imagine in the realm of sports in general. An issue that since the conclusion of the Super Bowl last Sunday has greatly increased. Tom Brady’s seventh championship has sparked a kind of debate for the greatest athletes of all time. And obviously, if you are reading this here it is because it has also splashed the NBA world. LeBron James, for many the best player they saw play basketball, has responded to the media about it out of respect and admiration for the quarterback of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
“I’ve been watching him for quite some time, and just watching him go out and do the things that he has done in his career, to win another title yesterday the way he won, was great. It was very inspiring for a guy like me. But two different sports, two different positions, “he added. KingJames. And is that many have highlighted the age at which Tom Brady has achieved this milestone, at 43 years nothing more and nothing less. A subject that touches very closely to LeBron, who has always been accused of being a guy who takes great care of his physique and his longevity in the League.
The NFL player has made it his goal to stay in the elite of American football until the age of 45, a challenge that hardly an NBA player can accept. Notably, at 36 Brady had the same rings as the Akron-born basketball player. And although it seems impossible that Source comes to have a history similar to Tom’s, it is undeniable that what he does at his age is not available to anyone. It is found sweet in practically every facet of the game, much more seasoned and conscientious.
Both will be remembered for their constant appearance in title disputes and for having a long and complete career. LeBron James was also asked about this, but the Lakers player gave no clues about his retirement: “I don’t know how long I’m going to play basketball. I don’t know how much more I can give to the game. How I feel now, we’ll see what happens. But I don’t have a timetable on it. I don’t have a year of, ‘Okay, I want to play until I’m 30 or 40’ The game will let me know when it’s time and we’ll figure it out then. “
