Considering Cleveland Cavaliers forward LeBron James as the greatest player of all-time can often be a fluid notion, depending on the time of year and the individual offering the opinion. In the opinion of Damian Lillard of the Portland Trail Blazers, some who still favor Michael Jordan may not be able to bring themselves to actually consider the concept.
@Dame_Lillard you think Bron has a shot to become the GOAT?
