But he cant because hes still in pursuit ... of Michael Jordan.My motivation is this ghost Im chasing, James said in an interview with Sports Illustrated. The ghost played in Chicago.James, who grew up in the Greater Cleveland area, this season led the Cleveland Cavaliers to their first championship, overcoming a 3-1 Finals deficit in the process. He picked up his third title after winning two with the Miami Heat. The four-time MVP is one of the best ever, but Jordan is considered by many to be the best.My career is totally different than Michael Jordans, James said, according to Sports Illustrated. What Ive gone through is totally different than what he went through. What he did was unbelievable, and I watched it unfold. I looked up to him so much.

He took a huge step forward in his pursuit of Jordan.But MJ does still have six titles to James three. And the Warriors went out and signed Kevin Durant?this offseason. As a result, James has been in the gym by 6 a.m. lately.Ill have peace when Im done, James said, according to Sports Illustrated. ' ' '
