PierreAs retirement approaches for LeBron James, some wonder what the Lakers have planned to thank the King for his time and his title won in 2020. For Gilbert Arenas, he shouldn’t have much.
Now alone in the world with his 40,000 career points, LeBron James knows he doesn’t have much time left in the NBA.

Understand by this that James could announce his retirement suddenly during the summer, without obtaining a farewell tour with the 29 other franchises.

There is no doubt that the Cavaliers and the Heat would like to thank him properly, just like the Lakers after this title won in 2020. But for Gilbert Arenas, and unlike Kobe Bryant, he absolutely does not deserve a statue.
