LeBron James has earned so much praise during his lengthy NBA career and none of it is more important than the admiration he gets from fellow basketball stars.
On the latest episode of the “Club 520” podcast, per zo on X, DeMar DeRozan admits that James was “impossible” back when DeRozan was playing for the Toronto Raptors.
He said that James was on a whole other level during his time with the Miami Heat and his second stint with the Cleveland Cavaliers.
DeRozan stated that James controlled everything about his team and was a dominant force on the court that couldn’t be slowed down.
How much has changed since then?

This isn’t the first time that NBA fans have heard this about James.
Everyone knows that James was the most impactful player in the league during that time.
His entire team revolved around him and there wasn’t a single possession that he wasn’t a part of.
The most shocking thing about James is that he’s still that vital for his squad.
Even at 39 years old, James remains a major part of everything the Los Angeles Lakers do.
Whether it be offense or defense, James is attached to all LA plans and they rely on him constantly.
He has slowed down a bit but even all these years later, James is still sometimes impossible to stop entirely.
James’ dominance led to big things, including two championships with Miami and one with the Cavaliers.
It also made him respected – and feared – by players throughout the league.
