Much love my man. Thank you for this amazing video and for giving us an amazing perspective on the greatness of King James (LeBron James). I love your content. The video was well edited and the sequence is incredible. Keep the good work going. I'm a fan all the way from Nigeria 🇳🇬

No.
Per game all-time at his position MJ is 1st pts,1st blk,2nd stl,3rd reb & 5th in ast.
That’s top 5 in every category,top 3 in 4 outta 5 categories.He’s the only only player in nba history to accomplish that.
Per game all time at his position Lebron is 1st ast,2nd pts,9th stl,13th reb & 17th in blk.
That’s top 5 in two categories,top 3 in two categories.Great but not on MJ’s level clearly.Especially his defensive and rebounding numbers.The only category Lebron better’s MJ relative to their position is assist.We all already knew/know that because that is the ONLY thing Lebron has ever ‘had on MJ’.
MJ is #1 all-time in P.E.R. in both regular season and playoffs.
He’s #1 all-time in win shares per game in both regular season and playoffs.
He’s #1 all-time in BPM in both regular season and playoffs.
He’s #1 all-time in VORP per game in both regular season and playoffs.
He has the most scoring titles all-time.
He made the most all-def 1st teams all-time.
He lead the league in scoring and made all-def 1st team at the same time 9 times.Lebron never did it once.Neither did Wilt,Russell,Kareem,Bird,Magic,Kobe,Hakeem,Shaq,Steph,Kd...Not one time.
He has the most trophies all-time with 22 in 1,072 games.
For context Bill Russell and his 11 championships is 2nd all-time with 17 trophies in 963 games.
Lebron is 3rd all-time with 16 in 1,407 games so far.
Kareem is 4th all-time with 15 trophies in 1,560 games.
Lebron can’t even comprehend playing at the level MJ played.

2:45 Doc hit the nail on the head. “In my day we used to celebrate our stars.” Social media has a GIGANTIC influence on why we don’t do this today. I’d be very interested in seeing how the stars of yesterday would’ve dealt with this new age pressure of 24/7 sports media, debate shows, the “if you don’t win right away you’re a failure” narratives, etc
Many of them would’ve failed that test big time! Still great players of course but on the media side they would’ve been eaten alive!!
They would've folded for sure...a lot of them
Blame social media and the media for pushing people against each other, also giving people voices on the internet who shouldn't be on here lol
Like when the media tried to push Giannis to do a superteam because "he can't win in Milwaukee", man was like 25 yo that was crazy
@@paquinraino8180 Facts 🔥💯 I forgot about that since he did win. Then after Giannis' jokes on that talk show... especially about Kevin Durant and 'being able teach KD how to run his own team and not join a superteam' I think it was Unc Shay Sharpe who tried to essentially compare Middleton and JRue Holiday to Steph and Klay 🤦🏾♂️ lol. A couple other talking heads tried to spin it like the BUCS were a super team in a desperate attempt to try and defend KD lol
Mad respect for how honest and open KD was. You could tell he meant it.
He’s all the greats combined. The reason why they keep this GOAT conversation going it’s great for ratings, and rakes in a lot of money for everyone in this space. The amount of scrutiny, pressure, criticism, hate etc is unprecedented, yet he still rose. Cheers 🥂 to my GOAT on and off the court. Like JayZ has the blueprint to becoming a Billionaire, Lebron has the blueprint to being a phenomenal basketball player with longevity in this league.
and he’s a billionaire!
MJ IS
Imagine the pressure on him coming out of highschool. He exceeded expectations those expectations were unreasonably high themselves
dude he is king of doping
Micheal and Kobe earned it trough work ethic. Lebron is a cheater
@@CitsVariants how did he cheat
@@CitsVariants ok so is everyone else in the league
@@CitsVariantsmj earned it with Scottie and Rodman……
My man just made a full on documentary about Bron 👑 INSANELY GOOD STUFF
lets see it dawg
Cap
Why do. They keep saying that he makes everyone around him better, during his career, what happened in those championship games warriors, mavericks and other games that he lose, didn't happen with the Jordan and Russell, maybe he should have had Robert Horry a true team player , won rings everywhere he played, no killer instinct all , and he hollered at J.R smith in the game that he could have put the warriors away with if didn't choke in the middle of the fourth quarter
🗑️
bron is a cheater 🪢💉💉💉🩸
I’m not here to argue LeBron vs Jordan, sponsorship deals, politics or any of that. I just want to say that what LeBron has achieved is undeniable. He’ll definitely go down in history as one of the greatest to ever do it.
Yup he’s great.
20 years later and people still be talking about MJ vs a new rising NBA star.😂
@@ramohnalez3725 their both goats. MJ was first but you bet too believe Lebron is after him.
Top 20, anyway.
Lebron ain't even top 5. If I were to build a team up that can compete for 10 years I'd take Jordan, Kareem, Wilt, Shaq, Olajuwon, Magic, Bird, Kobe and Duncan all over Lebron. Those guys are not only great but also have the heart to go thru thick and thin. Lebron OTOH bolts when going gets rough.
20yrs the man never been in any bad controversy like not even a speeding ticket 😂😂🐐
I swear, with all that money at young age, no controversy.. Respect
40k 10k 10k, top 10 in steals, 6th highest ppg, statistically the most clutch player. Damn near ALL the playoff records. Idk how you hate on a player like this.
So the greatest lover is the man who lived longer or the man who is longer? Ask your wife. LeBron scored 1 point a game but lived a million years so he’s the greatest? Pick a players best 10-12 years and compare it to LeBrons best 10-12.
And that's not even bringing in his most impressive accomplishment: He's #1 all-time for forwards for assists per game by almost DOUBLE the runner up. That's insane.
@@robertmurphy6566 Did I say LeBron was the greatest at anything? You literally just made up something to talk about
@@tb109987 it's what you're implying.
@@robertmurphy6566 Longevity goes into the discussion at some point. If a player averaged 40 in this league now but only played 4-5 years nobody is saying that's the goat of anything. How about we compare Bron's best 20 years vs everyone else's best 20 years? oh wait, few MFers played that long, and nobody has dominated that long. Take his best decade vs others if you like, but it's suuuuuuuper obvious you're just trying to make an exception for another player. Deep down you know Bron is the goat. Condolences
The fact Kevin Durant SAT UP to speak about Lebron shows a lot.
Respect for both of them✊🏾💯
Kd Put him on his A Zz
@@jazztravis6817😂smh people say anything
The fact that Anthony Davis didn’t even STAND UP when LeBrick broke the all time scoring record shows a lot too.
He will be the only player ever to get 40K points before he is done!! Top ten in steals, rebounds , assists and etc. So many playoff records. Always gives back to people, helps other players on & off the court, never got in trouble!! Excellent father and grew up fatherless. This man is special !! He is the KING, GOD BLESS THE KING
He might retire with 40k points, 10k rebounds and 10k assists, nobody will do that ever again
If he averages the same points next season and the same number of games (55), he'll pass 40k points. It's insane what his stats will be when's he's finally done.
@@BatDad-qu4fo exactly!!

Imma Kd Fan But Bron definitely the 🐐 it’s not even close
Great video bro, thanks for creating it!!! Good stuff
Thank you so much for this. This is the most in depth and well edited LeBron GOAT video I have ever found

I find that most people who have MJ as the best player ever are similar to dwade in their perspective. It’s an emotional attachment, “he is why I started playing” “MJ made me fall in love with the game” “I imitated MJ”.
It’s very rare that I see one sincerely and rational have an argument based solely on who is a better basketball player.

LeBron is one of my favourite players so far. Its amazing for how long he can stay in the league while playing on the highest possible level.
Science is amazing right... Look how women can alter into men and vice versa.. this new technology is awesome! Lol😂😂 Michael Jordan didn't use any performance enhancement or spent millions on his body to stay in the game... He aged naturally and walked away a champion 🏆 6-0!!!

God chose this man as the Goat and he stepped right in and did not disappoint us!
Think about this: he came into the league straight out of high school. At 18, this kid was averaging over 20, 5, and 5 against NBA men, by the way, in the almighty defense “hand check” league time. It’s unbelievable.

@@soulzy3596 yeah by coach pop for 20 mins a game😁
10:24 Glad DWade brought this up! People thought LBJ was entered into the GOAT convo in 2016! People were calling him the greatest ever when he won his 2nd MVP! While prime Kobe was in the league winning championships! That is insane.
It's about chips.
@@MrSmitty1074 do you think Bill russell is the goat?
@@MrSmitty1074no it’s not it never was all about chips until LeBron came along and challenged Jordan legacy then his fans and friends in the media started to spin that narrative to try and bridge a gap between them cuz even after he started winning they moved the goal post to well he can’t go 6 for 6 then they were overjoyed when KD went to golden state and it started looking like “he can’t even get 6” “he lost 6” his teams he played on lost 6 he in all of them displayed he was the best ever
@@kharianaflowers8033 Facts
😂 Prime kobe? Kobe's last chip was in 2010, and after that he can't even manage to survive the 1st round.. When bron make that legacy after winning 2 in miami and 1 with the cavs and later 1 with the lakers, it solidifies his resume on that goat conversation.. He has 4 now, maybe 5 if possible this year, but that record of being in the finals for 8 straight years is on another level, plus he's been on the top 10 all time record for points, assist, rebound and steal, not to mention he is now the all time leading scorer, it signifies that he is what people think he is.. Jordan has'nt done anything like that, aside from jordan's 6 ring, what else can you say that jordan is above lebron? If you are reffering to number of rings, look for russel though!
Being born in ‘92 and having to witness some of the best basketball from 97 to the present…Lebron is hands down The Greatest Of All Time…I can understand the opinions and it ain’t even because on paper he’s better than literally everyone it’s the fact that Lebron is THE ONLY player to actually beat the game of basketball…Jordan/Kobe beat players in great fashions but lebron did that and then learned how to actually win the actual strategic game of basketball…it took a while to understand and put into words but if you ask me that’s why he’s the GOAT…he didn’t have to give you 55 to barely win a game…he figured out how to give you 30 but ima get 3 other starters 20+ AND playing with the second unit constantly facilitating buckets…its not even a question
What people fail to mention is he did all this without a hall of fame coach, imagine if he had phil or pop for his whole career
u also fail to mention he is the king of doping. Kobe and Micheal didnt need steroids.
@@CitsVariants no one has ever accused him of doping. His name hasn't ever been linked or even close to linked to doping scandals. Also between the olympics and the League, he would've been discovered. I don't think you realize that owners don't like LBJ, because he encourages player freedom, and encourages players to take advantage of free agency, and not to be locked into bad deals.
If he was doping, they would've definitely poured money into exposing him.
Lue and Spoelstra will join the Hall of Fame thanks to LeBron. That’s the way it works. Phil was not in the Hall of Fame when he was coaching Jordan. Jordan put him in Hall.
You should update this now that Paul Pierce and KG essentially called him the greatest of all time after passing Kareem in all time points. If you know the history between them and Bron, you would know how absolutely insane that is. Paul George spoke about him on his podcast a few days ago too. You also forgot to put in the classic clip of Baron Davis and Paul Pierce calling him a combination of MJ, Magic, Pippen and Penny Hardaway back in 2018
People don't understand how much LBJ's High Basketball IQ enhances his game and makes him such an unstoppable force. He combines high IQ, strength, and rare athleticism, with an ability to control the entire tempo of a game. He's a player/coach as many on the inside have stated. These are intangible skills that are extremely effective in winning games but are not captured in objective numbers. Most of the people who cast aspersions and criticisms at LeBron are either fat, out-of-shape people who don't actively play sports or work out or who are so biased and full of hatred toward LeBron that they can't think critically. LeBron has evolved and developed skills that he didn't have in his prime years. This alone tells me that had he developed those skills early on he would have been unquestionably regarded as the best who ever played the game in almost everybody's mind, even in the rattled minds of his most loyal critics. Everybody with the rattled brain syndrome is quick to point out the hand-checking era in which Jordan played, the dominant big-man league, but do these people actually believe that defenders sticking their hands-on Lebron would stop his 270 lb frame from driving to the basket? I mean, guys weighing 250 lbs wrapping their arms around LBJ couldn't stop him from scoring but hand-checking would stop him? LBJ plays in an era where big Centers can not only shoot but can post up and handle the ball with finesse and skill. Comparing eras is difficult, though, because had Jordan's era been inserted into today's league, the shooting guards of today and the big, athletic Centers would destroy the Jordan-era illegal defense. Of course, you can't insert generations into any other time period. Each generation adapts to its unique circumstances and the rules of the game. Jordan would be great in today's league and LBJ would have been great in Jordan's day. Perspective matters.
@@ScottRachelson777 if his IQ was so high then he wouldn’t make some of the worst mistakes in NBA history during crunch time
@@mrhoward19801 Your comment goes against what almost every insider, player, and coach thinks about LeBron's high basketball IQ. Even geniuses in any field make mistakes; it's human nature. How you can make such a claim (and what do you mean by worse mistakes) is only possible from a very biased perspective. You do realize that a high IQ is not equivalent to always making the correct choices or being incapable of making mistakes, even consequential ones, right?
@@ScottRachelson777 idc what anyone thinks. I watch it with my own eyes and everybody doesn’t think that. You’ve never heard almost everyone say that. If 100 people said it there still 101 that don’t believe it. I watch these games and I can even break down a finals game where he mad bad decision after bad decision in the entire crunch time. I’m not talking about 2011 either
@@mrhoward19801 Dude, do you make bad decisions? If so, then does that mean you're IQ is low, average or what? Read what I said. You also said that you don't care what anyone thinks, yet you commented on my post to try and persuade me to agree with your statement that LBJ does not have a high basketball IQ. I do agree that what people think is not as important as making a concerted effort in acquiring knowledge in the most truth-conducive way. That means trying one's best to avoid making fallacious arguments that are not logically coherent or supported by the available data as well as an abundance of first-hand accounts and testimony. You do realize that emotions can interfere with good decision-making, right? Also, fatigue and other issues, but even then, I still fail to see what you're talking about when you point to LeBron's "mistakes" or how, even if what you say is true, that means his IQ is not high. Moreover, since you don't care what other people think, why should I care what you think. Do you have something to say that is not only known or accessible to your mind? If not, then to each his own and to everyman, let his delusions and separation from reality help him cope with the discomfort that reality presents.
It's so refreshing to hear praise for LeBron. Feel rare these days when you watch coverage and analysis of Basketball.

Doc was cooking throughout this, his point on MJ being allowed to grow into the best as where Lebron was expected is such great insight on how we take Bron for granted. Great vid
Doc has never been cooking in his life. MJ is getting killed for his first-round exits with players nobody can even name. MJ won his first ring at year seven, Bron at year nine. They were both 27 yo.
@@penkima4923 idk man, seems like your biased. Doc made some great points and was indeed cooking, his coaching is something different. Hope you enjoyed the video
@@yonh5350 I probably am biased. I admit it. I think Doc is the worst coach ever. Can't remember what he was like as a player.
I listened to his take on the video a second time. But, nope. Can't give it to you. He's off on most his points:
"MJ suprised everyone how great he was."
Don't think so. MJ already had a shoe-deal, before his first NBA-game. MJ was the College player of the year, before he agreed to join the NBA-draft. And, he won a college title, making the game-winning shot as a freshman.
"We allowed MJ to grow into greatness."
The Bulls were fifth in their division before MJ was drafted. MJ had to carry the team since day one. And, he's receiving flack today, for not winning a ring in the 80's.
"LeBron is better, than anyone ever thought."
He was predicted to be the Goat, but he somehow exceeded that? That don't make sense.
"Bron's had some of the biggest clutch games in NBA-history, yet noone knows it."
Huh? Bron has been the face of the league for ages, and he's played some NBA-games fans don't know about? Yes, Bron's had some of the greatest playoff-runs, but he simply isn't the clutch-player MJ is. We do know that.
"People are gonna say, man, LeBron James, was one of the best players, ever."
That can't be news to 10 year-old fans.
I'm gonna react to comments on Doc, if I think he's off target. That doesn't mean I dislike you, yonh. I just disagree.
@@penkima4923 i respect your opinion. i appreciate you didn't resort to name calling or other low grade tactics. we disagree but i see where you are coming from. whatever side we may be on, we lucky to see both MJ and Bron play ball.
When Jordan retired I stopped watching basketball for years. I never saw a single game of Jordn with the Wizards. That meant I missed most of Kobe's games. Then I started watching the NBA again in 2012-2013 and haven't stopped. I watched a few of Kobe's lasts games, and most of LeBrons. I was sad I didn't get to enjoy Kobe more, but I feel fortunate to witness another GOAT during my lifetime in LeBron James. He's such a great player and overall better player than Jordan. I will watch him live before he retires, because I never got to see Jordan in person.
Enjoy Lebron before he's gone, stop trying to find the reasons why he is not great and embrace such a generational talent.
I love how much Bron is better than MJ. The way Prime Bron with Prime Bosh, and Prime Wade played against the 2011 Dallas Mavs was awesome. The way Bron dominated that finals and scored a total of 9pts in a game against JJ Barea will and can not be beat. JJ Barea was the greatest defender of his era... MJ, Magic, Bird and Kareem would've had zero points against JJ Barea.
@@rockstar80 bron much better then jordan?😂😂😂
Not even better then kobe.....but ofc i respect bron and i like him a lot!
@@GremPTGamer their being sarcastic
@@rockstar80 Barea went toe to toe with Bron didn't know that.
@@rockstar80 chill. Y'all haters keep bringing up Dallas as if they didn't beat the Lakers who had just won the championship the previous season. That's all you have to hold on to but it's so invalid considering the following two seasons after and how he dominated the league and won back to back championships and Finals MVP and led both series and points, assists and steals. You hold on to the Dallas more than a baby mama who's holding her kid for ransom to make the Dad mad. Hate all you want. Plus you probably haven't been to the top of anything but your cholesterol levels. Lol
People spend more time criticizing him than appreciating him
The number one requirement to be the GOAT must win all rings with the same team. Not cheat, and go to different super teams to win a ring. Mic drop🎤🤯
This dude has played with Kyrie Irving, dwade, bosh, Davis, and has lost more finals then he won and Jordan won his rings with less time in the league how is this even a discussion and I'm a Lakers fan but this doc is dick eating and where does Kobe call LeBron the goat?
LeBron has aged more gracefully than any other nba player ever.
Sports medicine has come a long way
Everyone keeps saying to be the all-time scoring record and playoff scoring record it's about longevity. But no one mentions that LeBron has got the all time scoring title in significantly less games than Kareem. It also means something that LeBron did it in far less games. He's goated 💯
He was the fastest to every single point milestone than anyone else in NBA History
@@4316Ramboexactly
LeBron James isn't a top-5 scorer in the history of the league.
@@penkima4923he’s the number 1 scorer based on the record
@@spenser6353 The number #1 scorer isn't total points.
The Most Scrutinized Athlete Of All Time And The Most Accomplish
"Someday It could be another one that could be compared to me" This hits so hard, every no. 1 draft pick was compared to bron.
I think what people really forget is that Lebron not only is the all time scoring leader but he’s also number 4 in assists. People don’t realise the number of points that he contributes to his team not only from scoring so much but from helping his teammates score too. Not to mention the rest of the top 10 in assists are all guards who are known for their passing.
As we've seen in Russell Stats-brook case, having all those stats doesn't necessarily lead your team to success. When a guy is allowed to hog the ball all the time, he's gonna give you lots stats but usually at his teammates' expense.
In Jordan's 6 NBA finals, he only had Pippen as the other all-star level scoring teammate. His Bulls team averaged 23 assists per game. In Lebron's 6 NBA finals including 11-14 and 16 & 17 when he always had 2 all-star level scoring teammates (Bosh/Wade & Love/Irvine), team Lebron averaged only 19 assists per game, 4 less than the Bulls. How come? If you have one more all star scorer, you should have more chances to set your star teammates up and therefore more assists. Why did team Lebron average 4 less?
You see Bulls played a triangle offense system where Jordan let go the ball and let it flow within the team. Whoever got open received the pass. If no one was open then threw it to Mike to crack the nut. So Bulls let everyone get into the flow of the game. Team Lebron OTOH had the ball in Lebron's hand all the time so of course he got the passing stats but his teammates ended up with less possessions and therefore less shots and team assisits.
Playing a million years BAHHHH
@@TellenJonesthere also wasn't any good teams when Jordan played. Jordan caught the NBA at the percect time. When there was no good diversity or players. Without the warriors adding Durant then he would have 3 more.
@@TellenJoneswhy didn't Jordan go.to.more finals? If he was rhe most dominant ever. He should have at least went to.10. Because the league got.old and Jordan got.6 good years of it. And that's it. Before that he got swept over and over. Without pippin he was nothing or without Phil Jackson.
@@wakingforbacon6439 Jordan faced Celtics that had 4 HOFs and then Pistons that had 3 HOFs. He had to play against them 6 straight years in playoffs. There were super loaded teams in Jordan era as well. What you said was not true.
When your competition along with your teammates can retire and become your fan,... that's GOAT stuff...
I am an 80s baby who grew up watching MJ and he was all that until a kid from acron kame along like no other who was deemed the chosen one at 17 and not only lived up to every expectation but surpassed it he is truly my 🐐 like frfr yo and plus when I got older and really seen and noticed that MJ didn’t have nowhere near any competition in the finals like bron had period
Well put together video. He is the Ali of Basketball.
Reddick said it perfectly... But people HATE the fact that he's mentioned with MJ. Just accept it. I truly don't think there can be a true GOAT due to eras... Which has nothing to do with the players. It's not their fault that they were born in a different era HAHA. I do think Bron is the most complete player we have ever seen. Bron and MJ are in a league of their own.
Both are not complete players but one has many flaws compared to the other
If MJ is the GOAT for 90% of the people, who was the other player you can compare to MJ? KOBE
So there you have 1 and 2, the suposed GOAT can't do only 73.5% from free throw
@@GremPTGamer There are a few more things to basketball besides scoring points. Assists and rebounds are important too.
LeBron has over 80% more rebounds and assists than Jordan, on only 35% more games. No one in NBA history reached at least 8,000 rebounds with 8,000 assists for a career. LeBron has over 10,000 of each.
@@GremPTGamer In a recent poll with over 900k voters 41% had LeBron... while he's still playing...
@@GremPTGamer Kobe is not in the same stratosphere as the GOAT Convo. You bring up Bron's FT %. What about Kobe's dog shit FG%? Or his pathetic 3 PT %. Oh shit! Just ignores that.
I hate the goat talk because instead of appreciating the talent, we depreciate the other people to elevate whoever we think is the goat. I used to get so caught up in those arguments, but now I just appreciate the talent while they’re still playing.
GREATEST OF ALL TIME!!!! PERIOD!!!
LEBRON IS NOT THE GOAT:
1st missed feild goals
1st missed three point feild goals
1st in turnovers
7th worst plus and minus
4-6 in the finals
Swept 2x in the finals
Missed the playoffs 3x

6-0 IN THE FINALS
9x defensive all team
3x steals leader
10x scoring champ
6x champion
6x finals mvp
5x mvp
1st in PER and Value of Replacement
30:39 one of the best stories about Bron, absolutely amazing work ethic and brilliance 🐐
Such an amazing video man!!! Wow
It's awesome to see a compilation of all these takes finally.
It's a shame people's jealousy won't let them enjoy seeing greatness
Doc and Pat Riley thank you, this is exactly what haters do. #TeamLBJ💜🏀👏🔥🎺💯👑
10 straight finals give it to him man
8 finals in a row
In the Leastern Conference
@@kenwynejames1968 MJ played in the West right ?
And lost 6 of them. MJ the GOAT.
Was 10 straight it was 8
Idk if we’ll see another lebron James he literally owned a conference for so long and be great every year is insane to me
In his own right and how he played the game and still does at the level no one could, King James is up there with the top ten most influential players who deserve to be called The GOAT 🐐
The craziest thing about Lebron, is now he looks like a even more complete player, and he’s 38 years old! All the great players knew eventually the crazy athleticism they had will slowly diminish. So they perfect the moves that don’t rely on it. Like Mj, and Kobe did. If you look at Lebron, now he paces himself throughout the game, and doesn’t need to attack all the time. He’s shooting 40 plus from 3, he’s really good at making shots off the dribble, and in the post. All an all just an unbelievable player!
I'm happy to see my favourite basketball player gets all the credits he deserves
@Poitrekzprod thanks for this video
His stats will always go up because he’s played longer than most if not all the players he’s compared to. Not taking anything away from his greatness, after all he still had to go out & perform.
Iman acting like bron really got me cause everything he said I can see bron saying it just like that😂
I hope we get to see LeCoach when he is done as a player, shit is gonna be good and we might see plays never seen before with his experience on court.
I'm an 80's baby I never thought I would ever see anyone surpass Jordan as my Goat but dammit at this point I can't even argue anymore... I can't believe he not only met but exceeded the expectations!
The greatest ever basketball player in my opinion and also top 5 sportsman of all time in my humble opinion.
Dope edit broo! 🔥🔥🔥🤯
I loved that "It ain't our ball? It's our ball?? It's our ball!!! Aye! Its our ball!!" moment
This is a great video. Really captures Bron’s greatness in the eyes of his peers.
I also think lebron is really mentally balanced. It’s never just physical. He always seemed like a mature adult. Even as a rookie.
LeBron was paving his way when he went to the NBA. I was paving my way to beat alcoholism. He fought relentlessly to be a winner. And I am fighting hard to be sober. LeBron is more to me than the game. I won the championship 3 years now against alchohol. I broke through. And now I need another 3 peat. LeBron is my inspiration.
❤ you will bro.
You're MY inspiration Bro! Keep winning! You got this. 💪
@@wanderlustly313 thx it means a lot to me
Keep up the good work. Your a inspiration!
Baron Davis had an incredible point. LeBron has had the weight of expectations since he was a teenager and has basically been a Micheal Jordan level icon with the etiquette of Obama
Etiquette? The guy is a flopper and an actual super dirty player. He hits people while refs not watching. And he has no ethics. He is the type of person that will smile and be nice to your face, but will undermine you in the most passive aggressive wave possible behind the scenes.
@@bna441😂😂😂...ur life and ur brain is empty

It would be so crazy if lebron starts his own league. And other legends in the league joined him. He would open the doors to so many new owners
Will never happen. Illuminati would kill him.
That would be one of the craziest things I’d ever see tbh
He might fuck around and do it the man is a genius
As a LeBron fan, that was the greatest video tribute to LaBron James that I've ever seen. The only thing I could add is his off the court contributions. DAM!! How could he not be the GOAT???

LBJ has more agility? Nobody goes that much too far, so why say that?
Ability? The numbers and rings say otherwise.
Humility? MJ never said he's the GoaT, because the real GoaT doesn't have to do that. LBJ has said he's the GoaT many times.
@@JasonWilliams-um8im😂😂😂😂😂
FUN FACT: EVERY "highlight" reel, MJ/Kobe IS making the shot by milimeters, Lebron... his guard is just standing watching him dunk or shoot. Meaning they're told not to try.
It feels unreal when LBJ's getting praised. Loved the way DWade describe the statistics of the end of someone's career and when Richard Jefferson said some sheesh about his record.
When LeBron retires It will be even more stories and even more people will be choosing LeBron over anyone else. You will see highlights after highlights, interview after interview and then this special documentary movie will be released and even MJ or any other players fans will realize that Kid from Akron is on the top 👑🐐

1 year later and he still averaging 25 with 7 rebounds and 8 assists per game and going strong
This is how I see it. At this point the GOAT debate is almost an existential debate. I’m 62, I’ve watched it all. Jordan was meteor, a majestic supreme meteor… Lebron is the sun, always there… for years… who’s still here… for years, still shining bright. You’re picking nonsensical hairs if you’re going on and on about any GOAT debate. They are both… ASTRONOMICALLY AMAZING. To belittle one to build the other is a disservice to the game. BOTH are GOAT, sometimes there’s more than 1.
MJ is James Brown and Bron is Michael Jackson
haha... Man MJ is Michael Jackson, The Beatles, The Stones all rolled into one... Bron is more like Milli Vanilli
LEBRUN is greater than Michael B Jordan
All the Goats have the initials M.J..
I saw both LeBron and Jordan play virtually every game in their career.. in the context of the GOAT debate, as fans we fall in love with players especially when they appear larger that life or have inspired us to be a best versions of our selves.
That in term makes it hard for fans to be objective even when the fact and reality around them have been greatly altered. In that sense and in terms of who is the GOAT we often battling with our own biases and version of reality rather than one rooted in facts.
Outside of the media driven narrative, personally -cultivated reality and personal nostalgia of one’s own experience, it’s rather difficult to not see LeBron James as the GOAT given all that’s widely noted here in term of his skill-set, basketball IQ, will-to-win, leadership, physical abilities, championship accolades, longevity, the evolution of his game across decades, turning corpses in championship caliber players, making his teammates believe they can do virtually anything but fly while maintaining his own sense of gravity on an off the court etc.
Distill these underlying substrates in relation to the game of basketball, the GOAT debate becomes merely about one’s own personal biases and culturally groomed opinion of what constitutes the greatest basketball player of all time. LeBron is the GOAT IMO.
Congratulations or sorry that happened
Well said!
🎯 💯
_"it’s rather difficult to not see LeBron James as the GOAT"_
Difficult? I don't know what you were paying attention to when it happened, but It was _overwhelmingly obvious_ by summer 2011 that LeBronze has no chance of ever equaling or surpassing Jordan. No chance, PERIOD, kidz. N A D A.
And It's ok, life goes on. I had high hopes for him and got over it, you can too!
Bruh when LeBron finally retires.... his documentary will be twice as good as the Last Dance!!
AMazing!! Such a wonderful player to watch. After 21 years of playing the game he's not showing any sign of deterioration and weakness. MY G.O.A.T. will always be.
Good video 👌
Whoever put this together awesome job
Championships during MJs era were more of a determining factor in overall greatness bc there weren’t a lot of “superteams”. ALSO if you compare lebron and MJs teammates each season BEFORE they each both won their first ever rings it will only surprise you more about the greatness of the numbers LBJ was putting up in his early career…BUT on the flipside MJ took 2 years off in his prime and had an overall shorter carer which is DAMN impressive. I think it’s a tough call comparing either of them honestly and people need to stop hating so much
Lebron is definitely a goat of this era, and will always be in the top 5 best NBA players of all time. Mad respect to him.
Awesome Documentary Video 📸
bron is a cheater 🪢💉💉💉🩸🩸
This is his time. Let’s give him his 💐 and celebrate his talent, his God Gift❤
Young Lebron “ima keep working hard, one day there can be another that can compare to me” he knew he was gonna be goated 💪🏾
I've come up in the era of both Jordan and Bron. I've also loved watching Magic and Bird doing their thang. Bron is my GOAT hands down. People only say Jordan because of 6 rings, big whoop. LaBron James has been the man since he entered the league at 18yrs old. He's only gotten better and now in year 20, 38yrs old he's even better now than he was then. Can't nobody in this sport have that claim to fame. He's King James for a reason. If you're a true lover of basketball, you have no choice but to give this man his props.
Let's just agree that if we could have a prime MJ and Bron on the same team it would've been the scariest sight in the nba, 2 of the greatest all around players in nba history would've led a team to the finals every single year they played, and if it didn't happen everyone would be shocked, these guys are generational talents, like giannis you won't see players like these very often, and the fact that Bron has done this for 20 years now, and wants to play more is even more of a statement to his greatness, Both MJ and Lebron are amazing players and have more than earned their accolades, and people saying bron wouldn't survive jordans era, you're talking a guy who has adapted to how the nba is now. That's why he calls for fouls so often, This man in his younger years was 6'9 250-255 lbs and pushes centers around, him getting physical is absolutely not a problem, while everyone can say he wouldn't survive you have to realize that all players adapt to how the game is now, harden gets 20+ foul shots a game, any superstar gets 10+ in a game everyone is looking for fouls. Back in Jordans era it was less fouls and more physicality, Bron can do physicality not to mention he is again.. 6'9 big and FAST for his size, faster than most guards even, would he score less points in jordans era? maybe, maybe not, but don't act like he would be useless in his era.
since when jordan an allaround player?
This is Bullshit MJ IS THE GOAT HE SCORED OVER 3000 POINTS IN A SEASON NOBODY HAS EVER DONE THAT AND HE WOULD HOLD RECORD FOR MOST POINTS ALL TIME IF HE WOULD OF PLAYED 20YRS HE WAS 10X SCORING CHAMP AND DEFENSE PLAYER IN SAME YEAR NEVER BEEN DONE THE GOAT MJ NO DOUBTS
