like give a standing ovation to the Captain, James said referring at Abdul-Jabbar by his nickname.
It wasnt exactly Mamba, out, but it was memorable and obviously from the heart.

But then came LeBron James.
Like his predecessor, James is also in his 20th season.
That decision has paid off throughout James career.
Those playoff runs are the equivalent of three additional seasons played on top of James 20-year regular season career.
Despite all that, he remained remarkably injury free well into his 30s.
And hes not done yet.
That honor now belongs to LeBron James.
