LeBron James – the name that has become a symbol of greatness in the world of basketball – once again stirred up fans when a hypothesis appeared: if after retiring, he took on the role of coach, could he surpass Phil Jackson, who is considered the greatest coach in NBA history? And many people believe that, with his superior tactical thinking, innate leadership ability and unlimited influence, LeBron can absolutely do that.

During more than 20 years of playing, LeBron James is not only known by the title “King James”, but also for his ability to read the game like a true strategist. Teammates once revealed that LeBron can “memorize” every move and every tactic of the opponent – ​​something that only experienced coaches can do. Therefore, when talking about the future, many experts believe that LeBron will become an excellent coach, maybe even surpassing the legendary Phil Jackson, who won 11 NBA championships with the Chicago Bulls and Los Angeles Lakers.

One of the reasons why fans believe in that is the way LeBron leads his teams. Although not an official coach, he is always the “tactical brain” on the field – from adjusting the tempo, arranging the attacking position, to inspiring his teammates. With a calm but confident style, LeBron always makes the whole team play more cohesively and effectively.

Many people even liken LeBron to “being a coach” even when he was still playing. His transition to official coaching is just the natural next step in his great journey. If that comes true, he may create a new dynasty, similar to the way Phil Jackson did with Jordan and Kobe Bryant.

Interestingly, the debate about whether LeBron James or Michael Jordan is the greatest player of all time (GOAT) has never stopped. But if LeBron continues to write a new chapter in his career, move into coaching and reap glory, he can surpass Jordan in another aspect – not only as a great player, but also as the greatest inspiration and leader the NBA has ever had.

Some American sports newspapers have commented: “If LeBron James holds the sand table, he will change the whole league.” And perhaps, only LeBron – who has conquered all challenges, from youth to the peak of fame – is capable of rewriting the definition of greatness in the NBA.

Although the future is unclear, one thing is certain: when LeBron James decides to do something, the whole basketball world will have to watch.
