Oh do you want a LeBron James article? Maybe something that captures the incredible achievements that he’s made throughout this season and into the playoffs, somehow dragging what’s now regarded as one of his worst ever supporting casts (despite everyone being pretty chuffed with their trade deadline additions at the time) into the NBA Finals. An article that examines his immense legacy and undeniable greatness… well too bad.

Everybody’s trying to write that article and nobody’s going to be able to whip up the definitive version because this bugger’s just too much of a primordial force to capture in words. He shreds your pitiful descriptions with every subsequent game. So what I’m gonna do instead is simply list a bunch of stuff that applies to him and we can all just drool at the wonder of it.
