Lebron James and Michael Jordan share a few things. We know both coming into the NBA in 1984 and 2003 respectively they signed Nike contracts. We know both wore the number 23 coming into the NBA and at some point in their career made a number switch, Lebron currently wears number 6, while Jordan briefly wore 45. After the Spurs fumbled away the Larry O'Brien trophy in Game 6 of the 2013 NBA Finals, Miami was given a 2nd life. During Game 7 Lebron James took full advantage as the Heat won the series 4-3. James now shares with Jordan : winning regular season MVP (James 2011-12 / Jordan 1991-92), Finals MVP (James 2012 / Jordan 1992), winning a gold medal in the Summer Olympics (James 2012 / Jordan 1992) then coming back the following season to win regular season MVP (James 2012-13 / Jordan 1992-93), Finals MVP (James 2013 / Jordan 1993). Hopefully Lebron doesn't follow in Michael Jordan footsteps and retire before next season and take a year and a half off from the NBA.
