Best in the World?

In the NBA the players have had the motivation to become the best player they can. Many just chase the fame of being good. But very few can say they are in the chase of the best player in the league. The question has a risen again because the poor season from the player who once “the Best in the world”. My question for this is who will take it next or will LeBron James take it again?

The best player is alway an interesting topic of conversation because most people are picking there favorite player or the best on their team. But in rare occasions is there player that most people even if they hate a player have to admit that he is the best. For a long time LeBron was that guy for the NBA to look at. Unfortunately due to injury and missing the playoffs this year he has lost his title in the eyes of most fans. He could reclaim his title if he plays well and makes it to the finals again but what other player could take it away from him. That is the burning question. And right now I would say no one because no has all the things he had while he had his reign. The things he had were numbers like a beast player. Always put up some kind of monster numbers on points or assist or even rebounding at the time. Also he has been seen has a leader to his team and the league on how to take care of ones career. He been nothing but a model player even helping the players union improve life has a player. Other players like Kevin Durant and James Harden have had great numbers but have never been seen has leaders of the league or ever wanting responsibility for the players movement in the league. Also other great players have had great careers in winning and leading but don't have dominant numbers on a game by game average. Curry has been a good example of that form of player who is dominate but doesn’t take a more active role in the players union. Also him and Kevin Durant have won titles but have done it together so many view it as a team success not an individual success for the legacy of there career.

Overall I believe right now no players have that the combination of success and contribution. I don’t believe we will see LeBron back at top like he was in the past but I do believe he has set the bar to such a high level. Can there be a player like that I think so but we have to wait and see.
