If LeBron clinches the first-ever NBA Cup, it’s a big deal for his GOAT debate. It would be a unique feather in his cap, showing he’s still dominating in an ever-changing NBA. It’s a fresh, standout achievement that other legends never had the shot at.
Now, throw in winning an NBA Championship in the same year, both at 39? That’s a game-changer. It’s not just about skill; it’s about longevity. Bagging both titles in one season would seriously shake up the whole LeBron vs. MJ debate, making even the most loyal MJ supporters rethink their rankings.
If we’re being real, it’s impossible to know until the tournament has history behind it. If we go 5-6 years and it’s still just some quirk, the yeah it means nothing, but if it ends up becoming a big deal later and guys start respecting it more then it honestly would a little bit.
