James scored his 40,000th career regular season point on March 3 and was praised by celebrities, opponents and teammates. Because James was only 9 points away from 40,000 points before the game, the whole world knew that James would definitely set this unprecedented great record in this game, so James's wife and children were also invited to watch the game.
James, who was congratulated by the whole world, also celebrated his 40,000 points on social **, and his accompanying text was very domineering, writing: That's it. James also wore his signature meme, which is the crown.
Although James is very domineering when he celebrates, he also has a humble personality and a very high emotional intelligence that can make anyone feel comfortable, even if there are times when there is no need to speak with his authority. For example, according to reports, after James broke the record, when he paused, James also specifically asked his opponent Malone if he could take away the game ball, and Malone said that of course he could.
James was asked in a post-game interview if the record would be broken, and James thought it would be, citing the example of a big O's triple-double per game that was broken by Westbrook. But this is James's modesty, James's 40,000 is basically impossible to break, and the 411 miracle is even more impossible to break. James also lamented that when he first debuted, everyone wanted to ridicule him. But he has always focused on himself, not others. He takes care of his body and keeps a positive mindset, which is the focus of his play.
