Dwight Howard thinks LeBron James will be the undisputed GOAT if the Lakers come back from 3-1. Dwight Howard believes that if LeBron James leads the Los Angeles Lakers to a comeback from a 3-1 deficit against the Minnesota Timberwolves, the GOAT debate will finally be over.
Only 13 teams in NBA history have come back from 3-1 deficits. Teams with home-court advantage have a 45% success rate in such situations, with 9 out of 20 teams managing to overcome the deficit. If James succeeds, it would be a testament to his longevity, adaptability, and sustained greatness over two decades.
LeBron James has four NBA championships, 10 NBA Finals appearances, holds the all-time scoring crown, and has multiple clutch moments. The debate surrounding LeBron James and Michael Jordan’s status as the greatest of all time has been ongoing for years. While Jordan loyalists point to his six championships and five MVPs, James’ longevity and versatility have made a strong case for him.
