LeBron has a long ways before he even get mentioned in the same sentence as MJ... but I have to say, that LeBron's ability to completely dominate a game from a perimeter position is something I haven't seen since MJ. If LeBron has turned the corner mentally, and is able to embrace clutch moments instead of running from them... he has a chance to approach MJ's professional legacy. He will still never approach MJ's true legacy though, because MJ took the game global, and that can never be replicated.
