He turned 40 and commented with humor, stating that he could compete at his top level for five or even seven years. On the occasion of his birthday, Lebron James made a mini account of his massive NBA career, while stressing that his goal is to close his basketball course, as a Los Angeles Lakers player. CORVERSE Lebron James’ statements “Go through a decade, the 30’s and you wake up one day and say “Oh, shit, are you 40″? It’s funny to think I’m still here, playing high level, feeling young, but I’ve been in this place for so many years. To be honest, if I wanted to, I could play high for another 5-7 years. But if I wanted to, because I’m not going to. I joined the NBA when I was 18, and now I’m here, 22 years later, with my 20-year-old son in the league too, it’s nice. My plan is not to play on another team. I’d love to finish my career here. I came here for the last chapter in my career, but I’m not a fool, I know how basketball business works. But my relationship with the Lakers organization is very good and I hope I will not go anywhere else until my career is over.”
