"I'm going to be one of the top four that's ever played this game, for sure," LeBron James said.

James, who has previously talked about being one of the greats of all time, was responding to a question during the interview when asked to name his personal Mount Rushmore, the four greatest players of all time.

James' first three selections, which he called the "easy three," were Michael Jordan, Larry Bird and Magic Johnson. He deliberated before taking Oscar Robertson as his fourth choice.

Jordan, Bugs, and Lola for sure. Maybe one of the other Space Jam aliens can take the fourth spot.

Magic, Kareem, Jordan, Durant, Kobe

You'd put a man with 0 championships (Durant) over players such as

Shaq
Larry Bird
Tim Duncan
LeBron James
Dwyane Wade
Hakeem Olajuwon
Wilt Chamberlain
Oscar Robertson
Jerry West
Julius Irving
etc.
Please stop it, he's not even the best in the game right now. LeBron hasn't passed the torch yet.

Anyways my Mt. Rushmore is Jordan, Magic, Bird, and Shaq (Kareem has better stats and achievements but Shaq was the most unstoppable force that I've ever seen watching basketball growing up)

By the end of LeBron's career, I think I'll be able to put him on that list.

nvm i saw the etc XD

Yeah but even so you're right, Bill Russell should've been one of the people I mentioned.
But still Kevin Durant is a beast and deserves the MVP but saying anything beyond that right now would just be ridiculous.

I agree. I do think he'll end up being the best scorer of all time though or at least one of them.
