There’s no better reminder of how far we’ve come than where we came from, right?
In Nike’s latest ad featuring LeBron James, they take footage of an interview from May 2003, shortly after the Cleveland Cavaliers were awarded the first overall pick with all signs pointing to LeBron.
“No pressure,” he said of being the projected, and eventual, top pick in the draft.
And have those words been proved true or what? From LeBron’s block of Andre Iguodala to preserve the 2016 NBA Finals championship, to his first dunk as a member of the Los Angeles Lakers, his career has been a treasure trove of special moments, and it’s evident that he’s accomplished far more than he hasn’t.
Now, with all that said: Nik Stauskas is still better.
