LeBron James‘s season came to an end Monday night. And his cryptic postgame comments after the Game 4 loss to the Nuggets have fans wondering if it may have ended his career too.
James came out firing in the first half, scoring 31 points. He wasn’t as electric in the second half, scoring just nine points as Denver stormed back and clinched its first-ever trip to the NBA Finals. The 38-year-old NBA legend had a chance to tie the game in the final seconds, but the Nuggets were able to clamp down on him defensively. His shot didn’t even hit the rim.

That failed attempt had lots of NBA fans making jokes about Michael Jordan:

I've never seen Michael Jordan get his shot blocked and eliminated and swept all on one last second shot. 😂😂

Why LeBron will never be greater than the GOAT, Michael Jordan. Can someone PLEASE make these two videos make sense.

AFTER A SUPERB first half, he does THIS in the second half??? In an elimination game? Where’s the aggressiveness!? Where’s the urgency? pic.twitter.com/sKHf4GEkeo
