LeBron James Lists Michael Jordan, Julius Erving And Larry Bird As Three Greatest Of All Time [VIDEO]

Two-time reigning NBA MVP LeBron James has a list of legendary NBA players even he still aspires to reach.

Struggle as he might have, James recently told Fox News he considers Michael Jordan, Julius “Dr. J” Erving and Larry Bird the three greatest players of all time. 

James, who ranked Magic Johnson fourth in his all-time NBA greatest rankings, is himself fast rising up the ranks. The back-to-back NBA champ now finds himself the unquestioned leader of just the second team since the days of Jordan’s dominance to be on the verge of accomplishing an NBA three-peat.

With the 27-year-old star slated to finally wed his high school sweetheart and mother of his two young children this summer, James' peacefully evolving nature is only expected to further elevate his overall ascension among the historical rankings.

Over the course of his 10-year career, James has averaged 25 points, seven assists and six rebounds a game. Over the last three seasons, he has upped those averages to over 27 points, nearly seven assists and almost eight rebounds a game.

James also recently made news by voicing his complaints on social media about all the many sacrafices and concessions he’s forced to make in being himself. Days later, Miami police were taken to task for blocking off a local neighborhood to escort him to a Jay Z/Justin Timberlake headlined concert so that he would he would arrive at the event on time.
