James s career ended, his glory is full of career, and he is a little regretful before retirement

LeBron James's career has long been solemnly engraved with the word "legend" in basketball history. Since entering the league as the No. 1 pick in 2003, this young man from Akron has been carrying the halo of "Son of Chosen" and will never become the norm along the way. Four championship rings, four FMVP trophys, the throne of the historical scoring champion, 17 consecutive All-Star record, and three "redemption" turn from Cleveland to Miami to Los Angeles - he used his all-round skills to redefine the "domination" on the basketball court, which can lead like a guard, guard the penalty area like a center, and can also use bulldozer-like breakthrough to tear any defense.

But time never opens its side to Legend. In the past two seasons, LeBron's "last chapter" has begun to show some shortcomings. The body, which once could start from the three-point line, now occasionally staggers in the fast break; the defensive footsteps are half a beat slower, and when facing the impact of young players, he has to rely more on experience rather than explosive power. The team's record has become even more helpless. Although he still averaged 25+5+5 per game, it was hard to hide the chaos of the Lakers' lineup: injuries, running-in, and management's swaying have caused them to hover between "the favorites in the championship" and "the edge of the playoffs" many times.

The most regrettable thing is which team he will retire. He has only played for three teams in his career. As of now, his relationship with the Lakers has reached a freezing point. With James' proud personality, he will not choose to retire with the Lakers. He may be traded this season, or he may play this season and go to a team he wants to go to to complete the final retirement ceremony. The Lakers cannot retire, so can the Heat? Everyone is doing it. His relationship with Riley is very average. As long as Riley is still there, James will not retire at the Heat. Only the Cavaliers are in good shape at present, and there is no rumor that they want James to return. However, the Cavaliers are James' first team to play for and they have won the championship for the team. If James chooses the final retired team, only the Cavaliers are the most suitable.
