Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo and LeBron James, three of the greatest athletes in history shared a sad Wednesday when their teams were eliminated from the playoff competitions.
The three stars share careers that have led them to be considered the best in their respective sports, with Messi approaching 38 and Ronaldo and James already in their 40s.
Their dominance over the last 20 years is undisputed, and of course, there will always be a debate about who is the greatest or whether they surpassed the previous generation, such as Pelé and Maradona in the case of Leo and CR7, or Michael Jordan in the case of James.
