That's cuz basketball players are the type of people that would have been famous before the internet. In ancient times being larger than everyone around you was what made you famous. Probably more than the same they can have today because there were no real concepts that would prevent you from doing whatever the heck you felt like
that is as much an overstatement as if new yorkers would regularly see some stars every day. i have been to monaco and most people might be rich, but there is not many famous people walking on the street at all.
Been heavily watching the game of basketball since 1979 I’m grateful to have witnessed Bron touch millions of lives from the haters to the ones who love him, this Brother is something else on the court and off the court
I know he didn't ask for it but It comes with that territory. Whether he likes it or not. I most definitely would be annoyed if it was me like you said walking the street with the fam.
@@freddytorres3609 we get what you're saying, BUT!! its NOT the fans that make them RICH .. although fans contribute to a sizable amount, it does NOT make them RICH .. too many OTHER factors are involved with becoming RICH ..
It's really fantastic for the first few years being recognized....then you hate being followed and taking a million pictures and signing autographs then when it's gone you miss it again
How these 2 were involved in a cut-throat 2016 Game 7 finals crunch time, that they literally were flying with each others throats, it amazes me how great friends they are, but I can't help but remember that intense Game 7 any time I see them enjoying time together.
Lebron the Best American 🇺🇸 food restaurant in South France is in Cannes called The New York Cafe. No GMO’s in Food. The Double Cheeseburger 🍔 is Delicious. Travel Well King 👑
Labron use to be called " the best basketball player in the World" ,,he kept in shape, kept winning ,,still winning, gold, rings,breaking records ,,etc,,and all of a sudden "Joker" is called the best player in the world, with one ring,,,, losing , nothing spectacular but basic basketball ,,he's not like Mike , Vince Carter, Kobe, Labron , Curry , kd, ja Murant, Ant Man ,,etc,,, even without a ring Ant Man and ja murant is sensational ,,Kyrie Irving is great ,!!,,,,,, where and why did they place joker in the same conversation as Jordan with 6 rings,, 3 peats, a beast, Kobe with 5 rings ,, Labron, ,,Curry , and Shaq who couldn't be stopped with multiple rings,,,, I'll say Jordan , Labron and Curry , and Kobe and KD has the right to be in certain GOAT conversations,,,,, not joker or luka ,,,,,,, labron had to wait till he won several rings and still keep winning to be compared to Jordan or be called the best in the world ,,," they " arnt even going to wait for Joker to get a ring ,,then another, then again up to 6 or three peat , etc ,,they are afraid he may never get to the achievement of what is required of blacks to be in that conversation ,,,,, so they just putting him up there for hardly nothing achieved other then a good run ,,( which 80 percent of teams and others have always done to get one ring as a team ,,it's takes far more to do what Labron , Shaq, Jordan , Kobe , Curry ,,etc has done ( Dirk Lewinsky was awesome shooting the lights out but nowhere near Curry ,,Larry bird was better then joker and luka to me,,, and Larry still was humble enough to know he weren't a " Jordan level player " -- remember Jason Williams ,white chocolate ,,fly by night ,,or Hamilton for Detroit,, Jeremy Linn ?,,, lots of people had a flash season with one ring ,, the Greek freak !,,,, to do it again and again like labron,,etc,,,,He is more logically qualified to be in the "best in the world or best ever" conversation along with Jordan , Curry , Kobe, etc,,,,,joker got a long way to go and I doubt if he will ever reach what these others did over and over
You're talking bullshit, I hear people calling Draymond who recognize him. and you think that's everyone who knows LeBron James? it's the people who know him who call his name. and I think if Steph Curry was here, all the tension would be on him.
there is only very few sports stars that will continue to be famous after quitting the game. lebron will be one of them, but the hype around him will get less and less, when he does not play. he could also wear camouflage and be hard to notice.
Is being rich and famous worth giving up your peace and privacy? I think the best outcome for anyone is to be well off enough to live comfortably, but not rich enough to owe tons of taxes. F the fame all together….
Rich or poor you pay taxes. Yes theirs are higher than yours and mine but these guys here don't owe huge taxes...they pay them. Paid up ain't no irs tailing them. I don't really get your point, sounds more like envy or borderline hate 🤔 😕
lebron probably laughs about your concerns when he sits in his 20 million house behind walls enjoying his privacy with his family and having his chef cook him some delicious dinner right now. he knows everytime he is out on the street he will be in the spotlight, it does not bother him one bit. he is used to being the center of attention since he was a teenager. he can choose to go undercover by jumping in a darkened bus and drive to some fancy club or restaurant where most people will have to leave him alone. he can rent houses where nobody but his closest entourage can enter. it is not like he is out in the public all the time. he has people buying stuff for him. he just felt like walking a bit outside and certainly the hundred or so people were not crazy many people compared to the fans before big games.
@@qekruxt5089 he is a goat like good over athletes today, but Mj is the best basketball player based upon the player who had the greatest impact on winning ever.
Ok so now, i get that he's a famous person, but when he sat down and or did any regular thing and the crowd just STOPS ..... WHST are they expecting him to DO??? .... pull out a ball and DUNK IT 🏀👋😲 ???!!!
I'm thinking about the amount of dollars this injected into the French economy. The chartered Limo, the drivers, the security, the shopping. Smart French entrepreneurs must have positioned themselves months in advance to get a piece of the pie.
I was in a NYC restaurant when he sat a couple tables away from us 12-13 years ago. Aside from the sports heads, he came and went relatively unbothered. This is a whole other level now. It must drive him nuts sometimes. Only a handful of people in history have had to contend with that level of recognition. When celebrities complain that they miss the anonymity, this is why.
This is why I rather be filthy rich than rich and famous. Some famous people crave for it. I just cant imagine just wanting to get a cup of coffee in public but you cant
