HOUSTON — LeBron James sat by his locker, alternating between being introspective and funny.
He allowed himself to take things in, saying he was “living in the moment a lot more.”
He joked about his son, Bronny, bearing an uncanny resemblance to NFL player Will Anderson Jr., calling him “my fourth child.”
Nothing stood out about the moment.
What just happened was monumental.
The 41-year-old Jameshad just led a depleted Lakers team without Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves (for all but two games) past the Rockets in their first-round playoff series, winning Game 6 in Houston on Friday, 98-78.
This was no ordinary first-round winfor James, who has carried 10 NBA teams to the Finals, winning four championships.
This was one of the most stunning accomplishments of his career.
It’s time to stop questioning whether James is the greatest player of all time.
Six games before the regular season ended, Doncic suffered a hamstring strain and Reaves sustained an oblique strain in the same game April 2, deflating the Lakers like a nail in a tire.
