Players & Coaches believe it
A ton of NBA players have been on record saying LeBron James is not only currently the best basketball player, but a G.O.A.T as well. This declaration was a ballsy move, and a smart one as he looks to further his control of the league. LeBron calling himself the greatest ever reaffirms those who share this belief and concurrently reassures the King. LeBron already has an edge on his competition if the think they are inferior.
