Y’all acting like LeBron won’t still be playing in 2048

Can’t wait to revisit this in 2048

Mate, Lebron still has a few years in him lol.

2048 is closer to us than 2003.

2048 is a science fiction year

I dont think Coop can do it only Bronny could

Bro fuck you that isn’t even a real year

Coop sticking around to play with the future Coop Jr.

Lebron probably playing another year or two after this lol

I like Coop but it’s going to be TOUGH for anyone to remotely challenge Lebron’s longevity let along his consistent production over that long period.

“I still don’t think we appreciate LeBron enough.”

YES BECAUSE WE ONLY GET LIKE TEN OF THESE POSTS EVERY FUCKING DAY

wow this guy can really math

thank you for this

No shit

Did you just make a post about counting years?

Yes, any rookie this year would have to play as long as LeBron did in his career to play as long as LeBron did in his career. 🤷

No I mean we definitely appreciate lebron enough, I get your point but it must be said that lebron has never been underappreciated in the past decade

Yall gotta stop and let cooper make his own legacy without comparing him to the next because im sure he just playing the game he love and not trying to look good for LeBron

“We don’t appreciate LeBron enough” as he types out the 7th randomly thought up “wow LeBron has played a long times post if the day.

RemindMe! 22 years

RemindMe! 22 years

RemindMe! 22 years

Lebron is the Tom Brady of golf.

We fucking get it jfc, y’all find new ways to say the same bullshit. Like we get it, and it’s why he’s the 2nd greatest of all time. We don’t need a new post everyday pointing out his longevity.

Yes not appreciated enough when any kind of obscure stat he logs gets 5 posts saying first 41 yo…..

If he does more on a Dallas team in less time, I wouldn’t mind. Lol.

That’s it? That’s the post?

RemindMe! 69 years

ok lebron

“2048” sounds like the kind of thing you put after “Cyberpunk” in a new game about the far off future…

Robots will be playing basketball in 2048

More like 2050

LeBron is amazing. I’m glad I was around to watch the careers of Michael Jordan and LeBron James.

Not saying Flagg will do it, but nobody thought anyone would ever match Kareem’s longevity either. Players are playing longer than ever, and NBA superstar careers are lengthening.

KD in year 18, Curry and Harden year 17… all 3 still at an All Star level and those guys can and probably will get to 20+ seasons at a high level. Recent retirees like Dirk, Duncan, KG all going long…

It’s not crazy at all to think that some star will eventually break 23 (or 24) seasons.

Fuck you.

I will be long gone

Exactly sounds INSANE,what Lebron is doing will never happen again

Lebron James health is so underdiscussed. After he retires, he could make a billion dollars just by discussing his health regimen to athletes.

I don’t even like LeBron but that is crazy when you put it that way. Him and Djokovic are honestly not just sport-breaking but science-breaking examples of longevity at the highest level.

!Remindme 2048

I mean this is like someone in 2004 saying LeBron will have to still be playing at high level in 2026, yet here we are. What seems impossible can be done.

Fuck

Nope because LeBron will be playing til 2050

Whoopty-doo Basil.

Math

Injury luck, PEDs and a father sized hole in his soul are all he needs to make it happen.

so

Okay?

Truth is we’ll start to see more and more players playing 20+ years. Lebron gets all the longevity attention but guys like Steph and KD are on his heels as guys playing close to their prime levels way longer than anyone expected. This will start to be the norm over time.

RemindMe! 22 years

I think Lebron is gunna play 1 or 2 more seasons. Either end in year 24 to honor Koby or stay until 25 to say he has played a quarter century

Will Cooper ever even get to play with on the same team as his son, Coopy?

History will be very kind to Lebron whenever he retires.

And go deep into the playoffs almost for like 12 straight seasons in the middle of that

Bron could easily continue for another 3 seasons. I dont think he wants to but he could.

Neat

!remindme 2048

I’ll probably be dead.

James’ career is remarkable- the fact the he still performs at such a high level after more than two decades is astonishing

!Remindme 22 years

I wonder if LeBron will have descendants playing in the NBA in 4096

Luka is another way to put Lebron’s longevity into perspective. Lebron joined the Lakers the same season Luka was drafted, so Luka has the 2 cavs stints and the Miami stint ahead of him(in terms of seasons played). He would need to play until 2041.

Scientists believe that the first human being who will live 150 years has already been born. Cooper Flagg believes that he is that human being and will play basketball until 2060.

RemindMe! January 9th, 2048

isnt that pass singularity? we’d be living forever at that point right? cooper will probably beat Bron’s longevity records.

I’ll let you know in 2048 if Cooper Flagg became the GOAT or not.

No way you guys actually think cooper has LeBron potential right?

Who knows, vitamins will have progressed even further by then.

And he can also be best player in a team that wins 3 rings in a row, and couple of more and than longetivity is irelevant

We definitely don’t appreciate him enough. I’ve always been a Jordan #1, Bron #2 guy but the longevity, at this level, is impossible to ignore.

I doubt we’ll ever see anyone like him again.

Longevity is neat but what if flagg wins 5 rings without losing 6 finals? See you play to win if stars were important tmac, Carmelo would be actually respected

I still don’t think we appreciate LeBron enough.

Tristan Thompson, Iman Shumpert, Timofey Mozgov, Matthew Dellavadova, JR Smith and Lebron was the rotation for the Cavs in the 2015 ECF and Finals. They swept a 4 all-star, 60 win Hawks team and took a 67 win warriors team to 6 games in the finals.

It’d be like if Giannis dragged the Bucks outta the East this year and then gave the Thunder Hell or if Jokic had made the finals in ‘22 with Jeff Green and Aaron Gordon as his best players.

Even that probably isn’t giving Lebron enough credit. On the ‘22 Nuggets Green and Gordon had much better careers than anyone left on the ‘15 Cavs and taking the ‘15 Warriors to 6 is as impressive as beating the ‘22 Warriors. But Jokic didn’t win or make the finals, he lost in 5 in round one.

9 finals in a row may never be repeated, let alone on some pretty uneven teams like Lebron has had. In the 7 years since that streak nobody has been in more than 2.

Who. Cares.

He’s the second greatest player ever. How much more do we need to appreciate him

I still don’t think we appreciate LeBron enough.

I don’t think there is a player we have appreciated more

And I’ll be real I don’t find longevity stuff to be that impressive. It’s impressive relative to others, both keeping your body going but also keeping your mind going and staying locked in after all the years. But LeBron ain’t the guy he was in his prime and hasn’t been for a few years.

Id bet hes secure enough to retire normally instead of dragging his team down attempting to chase the ghost of the GOAT MJ,

I’m a Hornets fan, and even I know the offseason hasn’t started yet. What are we doing here?

Jesus christ every day these LeBron posts. Do you really need our validation that he’s a good player? Just enjoy him by yourself and be content with it. Jesus f-ing christ.

LeBron benefits from a trio of 1) his god given athleticism, 2) insane drive to keep going PLUS importantly, 3) modern athletic tech that is the best it’s ever been. Players need the first two things on their own, but tech will be so advanced beyond today that they’ll be able to play into their 50s if they want to (my prediction)
