Like a parent being asked to rank their favorite children, Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James wanted no part in assigning special value to a 2020 NBA championship, should he win it against his former team, the Miami Heat.

"It's no extra meaning to winning a championship, no matter who you're playing against," James said Tuesday at NBA Finals media day. "It's already hard enough to even reach the Finals, to be in this position. If you're able to become victorious out of the Finals, it doesn't matter who it's against."

ANALYSIS: LeBron James won two championships with the Miami Heat and will forever be grateful for his time in Miami with president Pat Riley and Heat coach Erik Spoelstra. With that being said, LeBron will treat this as any other Finals matchup considering this Miami team is completely different than the one LeBron was on years ago.

James is entering his 10th NBA Finals and will be competing for his fourth NBA title. Game 1 tips off Wednesday at 9 p.m. ET.
