""It's always an honor to see those guys," James said. "We have had such an unbelievable journey througout our individual careers and then intersecting at certain points in our careers, matchups in the regular season, Finals appearances, postseason appearances, then Olympics two summers ago. When it comes to me, Steph and KD, we'll be interlocked for the rest of our careers, for sure."
"At 41 and playing in his record 23rd season, James was asked about his future, because the timing of his eventual retirement always seems to be a source of curiosity. So, James was asked before he played in the "U.S. vs. "World" All-Star game at Intuit Dome Sunday afternoon, if he had any inkling about what he wants to do next season. "Yeah, I mean, I want to live," James said. "When I know, you guys [in the media] will know. I don't know. I have no idea. I just want to live. That's all.""
LeBron James arrived at the All-Star interview carrying a water jug and wearing a do-rag and was the last player to speak. He was named a reserve, ending 21 consecutive starts but extending his total All-Star appearances to 22. At 41 in his 23rd season he said he has no idea about retirement and repeatedly stated that he "wants to live." James played for USA Stripes alongside Kevin Durant and Stephen Curry, praised their intersecting careers and long-term connections, and noted that all three continue striving to play at a high level. The All-Star format features U.S. teams and Team World.
