He has been chasing Michael Jordan his whole career. And no matter what he does he cannot catch him. No record broken will result in people declaring Lebron a better player than Michael.
This movie is the latest manifestation of that obsession. But the people who have kids in the target audience saw the Michael Jordan version, they have no interest in this version. Why? Because Michael Jordan had and has something Lebron does not, a sense of joy that made watching him joyful. Lebron doesn’t have that, but he can’t see it or admit it to himself.
