JJ is a joke a worse than Ham 2.0. hes lucky to have LBJ/AD/Reaves otherwise team doesn't even win 5 games. Dont forget the refs help and many opponents have to b2b vs the Lakers many times this early of the season
@@Colecaraballo93 Exactly! He is the problem, not the Lakers, not the management, and definitely not his teammates… Dude can give half his pay for a third superstar ngl… It’s called ego 😂😂😂
JJ is conceited and he is way below his pay grade. He is eating Humble Pie. If he wants to help his Coaching Career he needs to bench James in the Fourth Quarter.
Lebron is the problem. He doesn't play defense and gives no effort anywhere on the floor. Lebron owns Klutch sports which is why they don't say anything bad about him
To be fair more than half the league doesn’t even bother with defense anymore. The NBA has become exponentially less entertaining. Also, I don’t know if they’re giving people drugs before they paint the courts but, at this point, it’s almost literally unwatchable - excluding any of the actual play.
That's true this season: he's a big negative on D. He actually had a couple or three seasons of solid D in LA (after not playing D *at all* his last couple seasons in Cleveland).
At some point you cant be considered the Goat if you always need help and never have enough. You cant "make everyone better" while "always needing help" at the same time. Pick one
Bron needs to find harmony between his inner spirit and outward actions. In the contemplation of the sky, Kynareth's domain, and the practice of the Voice, we strive to achieve this balance.
Lebron has the most fragile ego/confidence & is the most self-justifying player ever. He is constantly talking about how he does well & speaks to the “haters,” trying to prove he’s him. He’s a joke.
At least a few yrs ago there was some truth to the stuff being said. A nugget of truth here n there. Now it's 100% gaslighting. ESPN/FS1, journos on social media, and announcers telling fans to believe their own eyes and ears. I really want to see the list of people that Klutch is paying in the media. Not just the ones signed to Klutch I mean the ones getting slipped some money or being influenced through other means. I bet it's a long list of names.
@ he elevates his team to being the best offense in league history when he’s on. But they don’t maintain the progress when he leaves. We have shooters but not consistent enough to maintain the non joker minutes. We have slashers but none of them can create own shot nor can they get the ball with premium looks from someone other than Jokic. Jamal has the ability to create his own shot and make plays for others, but not consistent enough at the level of Maxey, Dame, Halliburton, Harden, Shai (you get the point). Plus no one seems to be able to guard the quick shifty PGs like KCP could. Perimeter defense has been real bad this year. I really like Braun and Watson, but they are still raw especially on the offensive end. The main thing is consistency. Jokic consistently puts up these numbers but no one else consistently gives him help. Porter is the streakiest shooter I’ve ever seen. Gordon is great, but he lacks the shooting prowess to really stretch the floor. Plus, when joker comes out, his replacement is usually sooo bad both offensively and defensively that no matter what Jokic did in his minutes, he still comes back to a draw or a major deficit.
@ unfortunately a majority of these guys would just be minimal role players on other teams. No one wants to trade for them because their value isn’t representing their contracts. They got paid as if they were KD, Booker, Embiid etc despite never having the numbers or personal accolades. They’re mostly role players and not legit superstars. Jamal was on the cusp but injury and inconsistency have kept him from that status. But he’s paid like he’s been an all star his whole career.
I wouldn't have a problem if he ended the interview with "I trust my teammates." Him adding "I make the right play EVERY SINGLE TIME" shows how egotistical he is. Yeah longevity and teammate mistakes plays a role but those 5,000+ turnovers you have aren't all father time and your teammates fault. Additionally in 02-03 MJ ended that season with a 102.9 defensive rating. 40 year old MJ with two knees so bad he had to get them drained multiple times while playing 37 minutes per game. That rating is better than 9 of LeBrons last 10 years. And the one year he beat that rating, 15-16, he had a 102.6 rating. A grand total of .3 better. His rating this year is almost 118 which is abysmal.
🎯 Had to make that moment about himself instead of celebrating Cam and leaving it at that. Responds to almost every criticism about himself but never for his teammates that Klutch Sports scapegoats.
When Tim Duncan saw his decline he retired before it got too bad. This guy refuses to face reality; it will get worse. I am 61 and time never loses, there are exceptions, but not for long.
The amount of deflecting and not holding LBJ accountable over the years is astonishing. LBJ is a joke. How people even have him in there top 10 is embarrassing
Plus, Imagine if MJ was allowed to travel like today to create space to shoot? Or if LeBum wasn’t? This comparison just needs to stop. It’s not even close.
I think this is the most overlooked aspect of the “era” debate. How on earth could you stop MJ if he had ONE extra step, much less the 2-3 extra steps that they don’t call any more. Plus, not that he ever needed to, but if MJ could carry the ball as much as they do now without getting called for it? Game over.
@@stevesheroan4131Yep. Plus imagine MJ with all that space and time he’d be allowed to have. They don’t hand check, they don’t clog the paint, any incidental contact is a foul. He’d average around 40 points a game! 🤦♂️
@ I won’t speculate on how many he would score, but I WILL say that the “zone defense” argument loses a lot of traction under the current “rules” of ball handling.
Imagine if Wilt & Kareem were allowed to play right after high school 🤔... imagine if blocked shots stats were kept during the entirety of Wilt & Kareem careers 🤔🤔🤔
@@zerotolerance5019 I agree. MJ is my favorite player, but it was because of his style of play. His era is most comparable to the modern era, so I’m really just pointing out that the arguments for LeBron vs MJ regarding zone defense are weak. I think Jordan would have had a hell of a tough time playing against Wilt, Bill Russell or Kareem. I also think if Jordan had any single player the caliber of Anthony Davis in his early career then the Celtics would have been in a lot more trouble. I don’t argue the GOAT, I just disagree with any notion that it’s LeBron James.
True! Now we have loads of people who never played in the mesldia talking like they know everything and everyone else doesn't know basketball. It MORE proof trugged! sports are rigged!
It was a mutual relationship. The NBA was panicking with the departure is Jordan. Bird and magic revitalized the NBA and Jordan took it to its peak. Kobe might've kept it going but the NBA decided to go all in on James and James had no problem with it. No surprise the NBA is failing
The only thing you can always count on when it comes to LeBron James is that you can't count on him. LMMFAO LBJ THE GOAT OF EXCUSES. It's just sad that this era of the NBA has made it that winning an actual game doesn't matter to push BS Stat narratives.
@bipolarminddroppings 40 year old mj was scoring better than this lbj based on adjusted stats for pace. While playing top 30 defense in the league compared to bron who is outside top 100. Lebrons defensive effort is embarrassing
I'm sure he figured if he missed a super long 3 he wouldn't be expected to make it. But the ALWAYS MAKE THE RIGHT MOVE guy had enough time to get several steps closer
The thing with LeBron is that his career is riddled with insincerity. He wanted to do better than Jordan but lost with Cleverland, granted getting to the Final much sooner than many expected. However, his record was then 'tainted'. He then failed to do well beyond that and went to Miami and wanted to win "not 4, not 5, not 6..." He was gunning for Championships. However, he lost again. He went 2-2 there. He lost against with Cleveland. From here, the balance shifted. He then solely went for statistics because sport was changing into a numbers game and he realised that's where he'll make his claim. He's done very well in that regard but it's the insincerity behind it. If you were to tell him, "You retire at 35 and are 7-0 but you're not the all-time scorer, nor did you play with your son, nor did you get so many All-Stars as you did, etc" and he'd absolutely take it though he'll probably deny it. LeBron's effectively become someone who's ashamed of how his career has turned out based on what his true prospects were. So, he changed the goalposts, and forced everyone to accept the new ones. The media bought it, many players bought it, but deep down they all know that LeBron, in terms of his peak and winning, has underachieved and nothing will truly save that despite the fact he's had an all-time great career in and of itself.
How about your insincerity? Lebron had a horrible supporting cast in his first Cleveland episode, he gave them 7 years and the front office kept making one terrible decision after another until he made the move. I completely agree the move was absolutely classless, both the interview and the arrogance of claiming multiple titles as if it was nothing. However, when you disregard the lack of class, you have to judge a player by his accomplishments, and not by his accomplishments compared to what he said he would accomplish, so "only" 2-2? I think most would agree that a stretch of 4 years where you end up with 4 finals appearances, 2 rings, 2 finals mvp and 2 mvps is not a complete failure 🙃 You basically said any season without a ring is a failure and any season with one is just meeting the expectation which is an unfair representation imo. You "forgot" to mention his epic ring with the Cavs and the one with the Lakers and then claimed he changed his game to stat padding basically? That's absurd and there's no data to support it! All his major stats are very consistent throughout his entire career So basically, don't be a hater I'm not even a Lebron fan, I'm a Jokic fan, but I don't understand why people can't separate between the disdain from his personality off the court which I completely share and the objective assessment of his career I still got MJ at #1, but I have LBJ at 2nd, and not so far behind
@@droraharonI can say , the evidence is there with him padding his 10pt a game streak the other night when he was playing garbage minutes to get his 10 pt. Soon as he got it he subbed out.
@Monkey-m8x you're right. It absolutely IS pathetic to miss a clutch shot so badly in the playoffs. He also airballs and hits the side of the backboard REGULARLY. He just bricked a 40 foot three off the backboard A FEW GAMES AGO, thinking he was Steph Curry and going for the win. I don't need to go back 2 years ago, I just wanted to EMPHASIZE that even in tne playoffs when it matters most, he still does the same thing.
@@J23LA24 its honestly crazy how weird haters are. bron isnt even my favorite player but i cant understand how people like you hate him so much. You guys call him "unclutch" and "pathetic" when lebron has hit the most game winning shots in history. i really cant understand it.
I can’t wait for the date this guy retires. He clearly has ruined the NBA where it’s unfixable at this point. The fact that he’s a part of two of the least watched finals in history is a big dent on his legacy. I can somewhat excuse 07 only because I feel most of America knew the Spurs were going to sweep the Cavaliers. 2020 is inexcusable. I know most people will say it was the bubble and they were competing with the NFL and the presidential election, but the fact they couldn’t draw 10 million viewers on average is so sad. The NBA hasn’t recovered since the bubble.
A lot of people say that Jordan's legacy was negatively affected by his two seasons in Washington. In my opinion, that's inaccurate. But if we're going to use that argument against Jordan, the same can be said about James. His time with the Lakers has been underwhelming, and all his flaws, as a person and as a player, have been exposed. Granted, he won the Covid-19 Mickey Mouse invitational championship. But beyond that, his legacy has been tarnished by his own doing in L.A. The best thing he can do for the benefit of the NBA is to retire and get the hell away once and for all.
why tf would he retire he should just take a paycut. hes putting up all star numbers. even if it was stat padded that doesn't mean he should be out of the league.
I would take Larry Bird any day of the week and twice on Sunday over LeBron James. Comparing James to any player is an insult to that player. James has a long way to go for any relevancy talk.
'I wanna be like Mike', that's what everyone was and still is saying, i don't hear nobody saying 'i wanna be like lebron', besides ofc teenagers and some a little over 20
When we said we wanted to be like Mike, we were talking about the depth of effort and skill we were demonstrating - showcasing our talents. When these kids talk about being like LeBron , I’ve only heard them say that with reference to his money and his clout.
You all have allowed his ego to get to this point. None of this LeBron inflation has been earned. So…here we are at the end where we aren’t acknowledging really.
Lebron has never truly worked on his jumpshot. Has very limited ball handling skills and can't create much separation. He has never really played off the ball and at this point in his career it's too late. He should have changed his game up years ago but all the sports media have been up his ass and he isn't smart enough to make the changes himself.
@Monkey-m8x do you watch the games at all? LeBron and the Lakers average like 1,000 more free throws per season than the second highest team. Superstars have always gotten a friendly whistle, but no superstar has even gotten as much of a whistle as LeBron's whining and flopping ass.
He is hands down the most obnoxious ego that has ever graced the NBA. He can take a big chcunk of the credit for the declining popularity of the NBA too. That soap opera with his son, I have no words for that dumpster fire.
I just wish a reporter would have the balls to ask Lebron about Diddy. Just once. Get his reaction. He gets asked about a lot of sh*t unrelated to basketball all the time anyway. Or ask him to respond about the allegations of him using steroids. Not one mainstream sports media outlet has asked him any of this. Go look it up for yourselves. You'll find nothing. But just type in Lebron's name and add "China" or "Trump" next to it, you'll get a lot of hits.
@teogotdasauce4233 makes you wonder who's really in charge, huh? Kyrie tweets about a documentary he watched and suddenly gets called "anti-semitic". Meanwhile, Lebron tweets about wanting a cop to get k*lled, bows down to China every opportunity he gets, lies about a "hate crime" that never happened to him, AND MANY MORE, but doesn't get any attention from the mainstream media. Only people that talk about that are independent voices that then get labeled as "haters" Can't even make this sh*t up bro. This sh*t GOES DEEP 🤣

A Laker fan told me Lebron took that shot down by 2 with 3 or 4 seconds left because he just wanted to go home. Either way the game would end there. That would explain the bizzare decision Lebron made. He just didnt care
Nope that’s just the narrative they wanna put out. It was really that federal investigation on steroids his trainer and wife got wrapped in back in 2014
44% and 40% for game winners, where the opposing defense is hyper focused on you and everyone knows you’re going to take the shot, is more than respectable - it’s exceptional.
Unbreakable records by Lebron: 3x betrayed his teams to join superteams 5,000+ TURNOVERS (AND COUNTING) 20 STRAIGHT MISSED 3PT SHOTS STREAK 120 Teammates Traded 8 Head coaches fired 3x Swept by opponents 14,485 Most Missed field goals (AND COUNTING) 104 Most playoff losses 110 Most NBA finals freethrow missed 33 Most NBA finals losses 10 Most NBA allstar losses Holds the record of most walkouts before the game ends. The only player to get swept in 3 different decades. Changed standard of sport that stats is more important than winning.

LeClown is the only one who actually believes his delusions.
Sadly no. And the media which should be educating the mass of delusionals are part of the fake narrative.
He make the right play every single time. Single mother syndrome, LeBron needs to be checked by a group of elders.
The thing with LeBron is that his career is riddled with insincerity. He wanted to do better than Jordan but lost with Cleverland, granted getting to the Final much sooner than many expected. However, his record was then 'tainted'. He then failed to do well beyond that and went to Miami and wanted to win "not 4, not 5, not 6..." He was gunning for Championships. However, he lost again. He went 2-2 there. He lost against with Cleveland. From here, the balance shifted. He then solely went for statistics because sport was changing into a numbers game and he realised that's where he'll make his claim. He's done very well in that regard but it's the insincerity behind it. If you were to tell him, "You retire at 35 and are 7-0 but you're not the all-time scorer, nor did you play with your son, nor did you get so many All-Stars as you did, etc" and he'd absolutely take it though he'll probably deny it. LeBron's effectively become someone who's ashamed of how his career has turned out based on what his true prospects were. So, he changed the goalposts, and forced everyone to accept the new ones. The media bought it, many players bought it, but deep down they all know that LeBron, in terms of his peak and winning, has underachieved and nothing will truly save that despite the fact he's had an all-time great career in and of itself.
the word you're looking for is insecurity. Lebron is the most insecure professional athlete of all time.
He took that title from Shaq years ago.
Well said bro 👏
hes the greatest of oat what else do u want?
How about your insincerity?
Lebron had a horrible supporting cast in his first Cleveland episode, he gave them 7 years and the front office kept making one terrible decision after another until he made the move.
I completely agree the move was absolutely classless, both the interview and the arrogance of claiming multiple titles as if it was nothing.
However, when you disregard the lack of class, you have to judge a player by his accomplishments, and not by his accomplishments compared to what he said he would accomplish, so "only" 2-2? I think most would agree that a stretch of 4 years where you end up with 4 finals appearances, 2 rings, 2 finals mvp and 2 mvps is not a complete failure 🙃
You basically said any season without a ring is a failure and any season with one is just meeting the expectation which is an unfair representation imo.
You "forgot" to mention his epic ring with the Cavs and the one with the Lakers and then claimed he changed his game to stat padding basically?
That's absurd and there's no data to support it! All his major stats are very consistent throughout his entire career
So basically, don't be a hater
I'm not even a Lebron fan, I'm a Jokic fan, but I don't understand why people can't separate between the disdain from his personality off the court which I completely share and the objective assessment of his career
I still got MJ at #1, but I have LBJ at 2nd, and not so far behind
@@droraharonI can say , the evidence is there with him padding his 10pt a game streak the other night when he was playing garbage minutes to get his 10 pt. Soon as he got it he subbed out.
Thank you UC for continuing to create this content! Your work is amazing 💯

so are you looking at this comment
bro them backboard brick shot edits are priceless.
Not much different from the real shots. He clanked it off the side of the backboard against the Nuggets in the West Finals 2 playoffs ago 😂
@@J23LA24 bros bringing up shots from 2 playoffs ago. this is pathetic at this point
@Monkey-m8x you're right. It absolutely IS pathetic to miss a clutch shot so badly in the playoffs.
He also airballs and hits the side of the backboard REGULARLY. He just bricked a 40 foot three off the backboard A FEW GAMES AGO, thinking he was Steph Curry and going for the win.
I don't need to go back 2 years ago, I just wanted to EMPHASIZE that even in tne playoffs when it matters most, he still does the same thing.
@@J23LA24 ok bro how about we bring up all of mj's missed clutch nba finals shots from decades ago.
@@J23LA24 its honestly crazy how weird haters are. bron isnt even my favorite player but i cant understand how people like you hate him so much. You guys call him "unclutch" and "pathetic" when lebron has hit the most game winning shots in history. i really cant understand it.
The Lakers are dragging an anchor in a boat race... LeBron's teammates don't have enough help.
I can’t wait for the date this guy retires. He clearly has ruined the NBA where it’s unfixable at this point. The fact that he’s a part of two of the least watched finals in history is a big dent on his legacy. I can somewhat excuse 07 only because I feel most of America knew the Spurs were going to sweep the Cavaliers. 2020 is inexcusable. I know most people will say it was the bubble and they were competing with the NFL and the presidential election, but the fact they couldn’t draw 10 million viewers on average is so sad. The NBA hasn’t recovered since the bubble.
He must be a great player to have that kind of impact sheesh
💯
“Nobody hates the good ones. They hate the great ones”- Kobe Bryant. ill let that speak for itself
A lot of people say that Jordan's legacy was negatively affected by his two seasons in Washington. In my opinion, that's inaccurate. But if we're going to use that argument against Jordan, the same can be said about James. His time with the Lakers has been underwhelming, and all his flaws, as a person and as a player, have been exposed. Granted, he won the Covid-19 Mickey Mouse invitational championship. But beyond that, his legacy has been tarnished by his own doing in L.A. The best thing he can do for the benefit of the NBA is to retire and get the hell away once and for all.
if the covid ring was so easy, why didn't your team win????
He barely hit the ring against the hawks on that last shot.
jit cant spell rim lmao
LeFraud Blames is also the greatest of all time to put his team 4 on 5 on defense
so does luka and yet nobody mentions that. crazy
I wonder why doesn't he stat pad game winning shots since he stats pad everything else?
Kobe was the last legend to play basketball
jokic is still playing.
Jokic and Stephen Curry after Kobe.
all the good fans left with him and now we're left with bums like you
Lebron makes me sick and so does espn. I’m so damn tired of his excuses. But he has been pampered since he was in highschool.
Thank you. I feel the same way, it's sickening!
womp womp just ignore him if it makes you cry
@Monkey-m8xignore him. That’s all everyone talks about. But as far as your comment about me crying. How cute.

LBJ still think he's that guy from highschool the whole nation was looking as the King. Dude, you're older with bad feet... Retire!
why tf would he retire he should just take a paycut. hes putting up all star numbers. even if it was stat padded that doesn't mean he should be out of the league.
A super cut of all JJ's pregnant pauses before answering questions at the end of the year will be amazing.
The ESPN, FOX and the NBA protecting this Diva like that time Putin, scored 10 goals against a Russian hockey team.
LBJ is ruining the lakers
LeBrick rhymes with Redick. Bromance forever.
I would take Larry Bird any day of the week and twice on Sunday over LeBron James. Comparing James to any player is an insult to that player. James has a long way to go for any relevancy talk.
'I wanna be like Mike', that's what everyone was and still is saying, i don't hear nobody saying 'i wanna be like lebron', besides ofc teenagers and some a little over 20
When we said we wanted to be like Mike, we were talking about the depth of effort and skill we were demonstrating - showcasing our talents. When these kids talk about being like LeBron , I’ve only heard them say that with reference to his money and his clout.
so you have heard people say i wanna be like lebron or haven't because from this comment it seems like you have.
You all have allowed his ego to get to this point. None of this LeBron inflation has been earned. So…here we are at the end where we aren’t acknowledging really.
Le"Clutch Genes" delusional😂😂😂

more clutch time points than your favorite player lmao
womp womp keep crying buddy
Wish I could be paid 50 million a year to be checked out and have everyone under the sun make excuses for me
Much like Wings of Redemption, LeWhine is a carried diamond.
Nobody is carrying Wings anywhere. Even at his funeral they're going to have to use a forklift.
He is getting his KARMA for how he did to Doc, Hamm, Quincy, Frank, Westbrook, etc. KARMA.
Lebron has never truly worked on his jumpshot. Has very limited ball handling skills and can't create much separation. He has never really played off the ball and at this point in his career it's too late. He should have changed his game up years ago but all the sports media have been up his ass and he isn't smart enough to make the changes himself.
He's not playing to win. He's playing for stats. The refs made sure he never needed to improve.
@@J23LA24 kobe and lebron both averaged about the same free throws per game. so the refs saved kobe as well?
@Monkey-m8x do you watch the games at all? LeBron and the Lakers average like 1,000 more free throws per season than the second highest team.
Superstars have always gotten a friendly whistle, but no superstar has even gotten as much of a whistle as LeBron's whining and flopping ass.
@@J23LA24 the lakers are 6th in the league with lbj being 25th in the league. you can't make it more obvious you don't watch basketball at all.
What's sad is leflop had a better chance of hitting that garbage 3 than he does at sinking 2 free throws to tie it 😂
just replace all the “lebron james” on the news with “anthony davis” and it’ll make sense

Every single time... Wow! Including the ones when he led in turnovers? 😅

I just wish a reporter would have the balls to ask Lebron about Diddy. Just once. Get his reaction. He gets asked about a lot of sh*t unrelated to basketball all the time anyway. Or ask him to respond about the allegations of him using steroids. Not one mainstream sports media outlet has asked him any of this. Go look it up for yourselves. You'll find nothing. But just type in Lebron's name and add "China" or "Trump" next to it, you'll get a lot of hits.
Because they are lies and speculation to bring down a black man
I get Kyrie was in New York but they were on his head… Lebron in LA feels like you mentioned they don’t ever put em in the hot seat. 😂
@teogotdasauce4233 makes you wonder who's really in charge, huh? Kyrie tweets about a documentary he watched and suddenly gets called "anti-semitic". Meanwhile, Lebron tweets about wanting a cop to get k*lled, bows down to China every opportunity he gets, lies about a "hate crime" that never happened to him, AND MANY MORE, but doesn't get any attention from the mainstream media.

A Laker fan told me Lebron took that shot down by 2 with 3 or 4 seconds left because he just wanted to go home. Either way the game would end there. That would explain the bizzare decision Lebron made. He just didnt care

LBJ Is a sell out
All Jordan years outta his prime too
What excuse does the soon-to-be 40 year old have now
44% and 40% for game winners, where the opposing defense is hyper focused on you and everyone knows you’re going to take the shot, is more than respectable - it’s exceptional.
Unbreakable records by Lebron:
3x betrayed his teams to join superteams
5,000+ TURNOVERS (AND COUNTING)
20 STRAIGHT MISSED 3PT SHOTS STREAK
120 Teammates Traded
8 Head coaches fired
3x Swept by opponents
14,485 Most Missed field goals (AND COUNTING)
104 Most playoff losses
110 Most NBA finals freethrow missed
33 Most NBA finals losses
10 Most NBA allstar losses
Holds the record of most walkouts before the game ends.
The only player to get swept in 3 different decades.
Changed standard of sport that stats is more important than winning.
