The conversations are meant to mimic a barbershop where people are relaxed and have free-flowing conversation.
The panel on Friday ended up talking about James’s legacy in the NBA as one of the greatest of all time.
“The pressure and intensity that’s been on him in the Olympics, the differnt teams he’s been on, and he’s always done things the right way,” Brady said on the show.
“He’s always risen above all the noise and the BS and continued to deliver. You’re witnessing the greatest ever, and I hope you all appreciate that.”

A season ago, he became the highest-scoring player in NBA history. He came into the league at the age of 19, and 22 seasons later, he is still playing at a top level.
His unprecedented success at an older age, combined with his achievements and longevity, give James a clear-cut case for being the greatest basketball player ever.
James appears ready for at least one more season of play, though he could end up playing two or three seasons to play with his other son, Bryce, who is entering his freshman year at Arizona.
If he does keep playing, each season will further cement his legacy as a one-of-a-kind athlete.
