Watch: LeBron James Emotionally Reacts To Passing MJ In Points

LeBron James passed Michael Jordan as the league’s fourth all-time leading scorer. It was an emotional moment, and LeBron enjoyed every bit of it. Michael Jordan was his role model, and he is still chasing his gost. Passing him in points was meaningful and brilliant. Some say he even cried.

King James kept his head in the towel for so long, and fans started talking. Did he really cry? We will never know, because there was not a clear shot of him at that point. LeBron scored 32,393 points in the second quarter of the game against the Los Angeles Clippers, and that’s something you celebrate.

He still remembers the first time he met the Chicago Bulls legend.

“It was godly. I’ve said that over and over before, but it was like meeting God for the first time. That’s what I felt like as a 16-year-old kid when I met MJ,” LeBron said.

“Any time I’m even mentioned with the greats that played this game and guys before me who laid the path, laid the grounds in this work and allowed me to be in this position, it’s always humbling and gratifying for my city. Just knowing where I come from, some of you guys know where I come from that’s been there and some of you guys haven’t, but where I come from,there’s not many of us. It’s very limited. It’s very, very limited inspirations. Very limited resources. Very limited everything. So for me to be in this position where I’m at today, it’s just a blessing.”

For Shannon Sharpe, LeBron achieved a lot, and he is the GOAT.

“LeBron is the GOAT,” Sharpe said. “The reason why I say Lebron James is the best is because I saw Michael Jordan win the title on a 57-win team Bulls, retire, and then they won 55 games. They were a horrible call away from getting to the Eastern Conference finals. I saw LeBron James leave Cleveland, they won the lottery. I saw LeBron James go to Miami, they go to the finals four straight times and win two. He leaves, and with two hall-of-fame players, they missed the play-offs.”
