People said the same shit about Jordan when he was in his later years. "He's bad for the game!!!" or some nonsense.
Then the league devolved into Big 10 hell and was unwatchable for about a decade after he retired.
The league needs stars and James is a star. He's still a monumental douche and his stans are somehow worse.
But the league his better for having him in it. If he really is going to try to leverage a retirement ploy, this is one of those times that the league could do some wink/nod shit behind the scenes - not with owners but with agents - to try to push something through.
2 more years of James in the league is absolutely something Silver wants.
