You do know that winning MVPs are a sign of a players domination albeit not the only factor, it still weights heavy in the decision whether a player is dominant or not. The NBA has been Lebron’s league for so many years and when he’s gone far more people will realize it than not.

It’s crazy how he’s remained an elite player even though historically he’s way his prime.
