Abdul-Jabbar said when asked about LeBron’s ability to break records: “I’m happy to see that happen. I do not consider the record to be an individual achievement, but rather it is the limit of each person. If one person can do something that has never been done, that means we all have a chance to do it. It is a source of hope and inspiration. We all win when records are broken and if LeBron breaks mine, I’ll be right there cheering him on.”
