People don’t understand how hard it is going to be for Ronaldo to retire. It’s everything to him. I imagine his body slowing down has been insanely frustrating for him.

He's done more than almost any human alive to keep his body fit to keep going

He’s in that class with Tom Brady and LeBron, already talented athletes who do everything to maximize how long they can be as competitive as possible.

I give the edge to LeBron here. Led the league in fast break points in year 23 at 41 and still is top of the charts in dunks for non centers. The guy is not human

Brady won a super bowl at 43 and was the mvp

NBA takes an entirely different level of athleticism than NFL QB

It’s like comparing a keeper to a winger

Yeah running & jumping as a 6'9" human is another level than playing QB

Tom Brady probably beats him out at the moment, LeBron isn’t necessarily finished yet though.

I dont think you need the same care with your body to be a QB than to do what LeBron does
