This is reading into the tea leaves a bit, but I think LeBron has a goal in mind of playing in the NBA at the same time as his oldest son (who I wouldn't call the 'next LeBron' by any means but from what I've seen is very impressive skillwise for his age and wouldn't even need to grow much taller than 6 feet to be considered a good point guard prospect). That'd be 7-8 years from now at the earliest, and even when factoring in a decline the career numbers will likely just be staggering to the point it'll be tough for people to just fixate on 'Finals record' or whatever.

LeBron could very well be the all-time leading scorer and 3rd in assists when he retires. For perspective, Oscar Robertson at 12th in points and 6th in assists is the only player even close to the top 10 in both categories. Of top scorers, Kobe is 29th in assists, Jordan 43. Of top assisters, Stockton is 44th in points and Isiah is 53rd.
