At 6:15 AM, James and teammate Maxey practiced together! The 76ers owner called James the greatest of all time.

At 6:15 AM local time, 76ers player Maxey reached out to James and a famous trainer: "I know I'm here earlier than everyone else today, but you guys must come!"

James responded with a crying-laughing emoji.

According to his usual routine, James typically heads to the training facility by car around 4 AM. Today, the veteran was late, and instead his 26-year-old teammate Maxey was the first to arrive at the gym.

James may be late, but he never misses a session. From some training footage, James still looks fierce—he easily spins past defenders and throws down two-handed dunks.

Maxey was not to be outdone; he also performed a spinning dunk, very similar to James'.

After training, James posted a photo of his dinner with a bunch of drooling emojis. With just that little bit of greens, is it enough for him?

James and Maxey have teamed up; Jaylen Brown and other teammates haven't been seen yet, but they are all training privately. After all, their common goal is the championship, so no one is slacking off.

The 76ers held a press conference for Jaylen Brown today. He said James is very active in the group chat: "We communicate almost every day; we've set up several group chats and everyone is trying to figure out how to mesh. LeBron is very active in the group, so we just try to find common ground. I think everyone understands what a rare opportunity we have in front of us, but we also have to put in the work... We won't cut corners; we started preparing early."

James' arrival excited Jaylen Brown. 76ers president Mike Ganxi said on a show that if the team hadn't secured Jaylen Brown, they definitely wouldn't have recruited James. "Without getting Jaylen Brown, I think we wouldn't have gotten LeBron. Before all this happened, that completely changed the landscape of our team. At that point, we decided to go all out: everyone proactively reached out to pitch Philadelphia to LeBron. We felt that if he could join, he would be that key piece, and we could truly become a strong team."

"LeBron is the glue. That's a very prominent trait of his. He can handle almost any role, and he elevates the level of everyone on the team. We have a lot of tactical options. On any given night, anyone can be the focal point. So I think once we mesh and develop chemistry, the games will be very entertaining."

76ers owner Harris gave an interview, referring to James as "LeGOAT". The host asked him what he was doing when James chose Philadelphia. Harris: "I happened to be in a meeting with Adam Silver at the time. I was so excited that I had to say to him: 'Adam, thank you, I know your time is valuable, but I have to go now. I'm too excited to continue the meeting.'"

"Then I shared the good news with everyone around me. It was truly a monumental moment. He could have gone anywhere he wanted, and he is a very goal-oriented person. But in the end, he chose us."

Another legend closely tied to the 76ers is also very happy recently—Allen Iverson. As a team icon, he was quick to share his joy when James joined the 76ers. Recently, he even wore James' 76ers jersey to show support.

There's an interesting comparison chart: When James made his NBA debut in 2003, his teammate Edgecumbe was not yet born, teammate Bona was 7 months old, Maxey was 2, Jaylen Brown was 7, and Embiid was 9. Crazy.

Looking forward to the new season, as James leads these young guys to break through the Eastern Conference and win a championship together.
