As crazy as it sounds to some, LeBron James might just be the most disrespected player in NBA history. Not only does he have to deal with continually listening to GOAT’s conversations, but he also has to listen to other criticisms of his game. One thing that has been said about James is that he is not a scorer, according to some.
It’s hard to say what people describe as a scorer, but as everyone knows by now, LeBron is on the verge of becoming the leading scorer in NBA history and he even has a chance to complete that task on Tuesday night. . Although that discussion should have been put to sleep many years ago, this should be the nail in the coffin.
NBA analyst Nick Wright had some interesting things to say about James and why he’s not listed as one of the greatest scorers in history:
“I think LeBron gets the record tonight. And I hope that once LeBron James literally scores more points in the regular season, we can have this conversation: Why isn’t LeBron considered one of the greatest scorers ever?”

James will be able to shut out all that noise once he breaks the scoring record on Tuesday or Thursday night if he’s going to play in both games. This could be one of the greatest moments in NBA history, and maybe now, people will start to regard him as one of the greatest scorers the game has ever seen.
In the end, James has nothing more to prove to anyone in the world, but he has certainly had one of the two greatest careers in NBA history. Whether people say he’s the No. 1 or No. 2 of all time, James has already cemented his legacy, and this mark would add to it.
