Lyndon Baines Johnson became president of the United States after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in 1963. He used Kennedy's last speech supporting civil rights to help pass civil rights for which so many were marching in the streets. He was able to get things done where so many others just talked. However, he escalated the conflict in Vietnam. Thus shows the president in dual roles.
With this in mind, the NBA's LBJ has also had conflicting roles. When he went to Miami, he became a villain. However, he won two championships there. That experience helped him beat the Warriors in an epic 3-1 comeback fashion. Now with the Lakers, he has a chance to advance his legacy.
LeBron James has been a phenom from his first game, which he takes very seriously. Just take a look at his rookie, Madison Square Garden, and playoff debuts. All three were over twenty points.
Look at how many consecutive Eastern Conference Finals he won. Not even Michael Jordan won eight. LeBron James has been a force to be reckoned with and no doubt will for seasons to come.
