For 41 seasons, Ralph Lawler served as the play-by-play voice for the Los Angeles Clippers, dating back to their days in San Diego in the late 1970s.
He decided to call it quits a few years ago, and his long broadcasting career allowed him to witness many of the NBA’s greatest players up close and personal over the years.
Many people in Lawler’s age group seem inclined to believe that Michael Jordan is the greatest player in basketball history. But Lawler firmly believes that LeBron James is the greatest ever, and he recently made that clear on X, formally known as Twitter.
In fact, he says it isn’t close or even worth discussing (h/t Lakers Daily).
Just about every basketball fan knows James’ major accomplishments by heart. But in recent years, he has added ridiculous longevity to his resume.
This season, which is his 21st in the NBA, he’s averaging 25.3 points, 7.5 rebounds and 6.7 assists a game while shooting 55.1% from the field and 40.5% from 3-point range. He has helped stabilize the Los Angeles Lakers after a 3-5 start and has guided them to a 15-10 record, which put them in fifth place in the Western Conference going into Thursday.
If James isn’t the greatest ever, it’s mostly because of his 4-6 record in the NBA Finals. But the Lakers have shown at least some ability to contend for this year’s world championship, and a fifth ring would certainly strengthen James’ argument for being the greatest basketball player in history.
