“I think it’s one of the greatest records in sports in general.” “I think it’s right up there with the homerun record in baseball. It’s one of those records you never see or think would be broken. And then you end up seeing guys like, you had Hank Aaron who had him for so long, you see guys, like Sammy (Sosa) and Mark McGwire and these guys, starting to cast him“, he said before finishing his explanation.
“And it was like, ‘Oh, man. It can really happen.’ And you start to really watch and pay attention to it and you see Sammy and Mark McGwire go for the bat and you’re like, ‘They had a chance to knock it out every time.’ It was fun. For me, as a sportsman, it was fun just watching those guys go to the bat and chasing him down.“, he completed.
But anyone who thinks that LeBron James is not that focused on breaking the NBA points record is wrong. Needing only 63 more, he was asked if he will try this in the game against the Pelicans this Saturday, 4, and the ace revealed that he has a plan to reach the mark: “Yes I have. I mean, I don’t know if it’s going to happen on Saturday. But yes (laughs)“.
