Despite being 6th all time in games player (just over 100 games sort of #1), lebron is 230 loses away from over taking Vince Carter’s loss record of 738 losses in his career. Lebron would need to play in and lose nearly every game over the next 3 seasons to achieve that mark.

In fact, Lebron isn’t even all that close to the top 25 in this category. Statmuse won’t let me see past spot 25 unless I pay them, but currently that player has 599 losses in his career. Lebron is still 75ish away from that mark. Should he tank the next two seasons to help crack into the top 25? Would that help his GOWT candidacy more or less than another ring.

    First of all, lebron’s legacy involves colluding with other players and manipulating free agency to force their wwsy onto the same team at the cost of other players salary in a way that is historically unprecedented.

    colluding is only a problem when it’s the teams, not players. Players have always been free to discuss and team up. I don’t think they did anything that was historically unprecedented, it was just a very high profile off season involving one of the greatest players.
