Cooking NBA talent at 15 is insane
From 15-40 Bron been elite that’s insane.
15-45
@@RogerBartolay lol true 🤣
He’s the greatest basketball player I’ve ever seen.
@@stevelumumbashabazzz5087 Same for me
Do what saying that LeBron better than Jordan
I wait for rashad mccants to say that lebron paid Ron artest to say this lol… there was a lot of rumour back in days that said lebron could have went to the league from his junior year in high school. He’s the greatest basketball player to ever touch the ball. You’re not going to change my mind. Go argue with your momma.
The same age as bron he definitely could have played at 15
That dude is making money off that stuff. He just another Skip
@@marlonsmith924 I don't even know if he's making money. Dude is just a hater. I blame Gil for giving him a platform
@@future62They all make money for appearing on podcasts
i'm with you dawg. i've watched both in real time and was with MJ being the GOAT but LBJ the best to ever play basketball it's not close. imagine playing so long that people actually forgot your prime. LBJ insane 😂
Metta said Lebron could have went pro at 15, that’s really saying something damn!!!!
It's Metta. This guy is mental 😅
@@PETERODZZyou mad😂😂😂😂
@@PETERODZZ 👎
Plenty of people said the same thing ..
Metta is NOT the ONLY one who's ever said that .. duh!!
@PETERODZZ MJ said it too, is he mental as well? Goofy ass yakub troll
Ron was a 2 way player in his prime
Cavs legend Terrell Brandon said Lebron was a beast and had his games on TV as an 8th grader
I watched his high school games on ESPN when I was in college.
That was wild
Im glad I have never taken Lebron for granted regardless of him having to face unreal pressure and scrutiny since being in high school and the spotlight on him day and night wherever he goes a true once in a lifetime athlete that will forever be remembered for Doing things and breaking records that He did seemingly effortlessly #Witness#Greatness
I will keep this perspective in mind watching my generations superstars grow up. Especially wemby. Thanks
Jordan arse Boys and Rashad Mcjealous. Big fuckin mad rn
@@luigirox8Ima miss the hell outta Bron! But the league is in good hands.
@@marlonsmith924without a doubt
You are absolutely right. I have been watching Bron since His high school days, and it is crazy that man has done everything that right way.
We will never see another player like him😢
People keep insisting LeBron couldn't play in the 90s...I mean if Ron badass Artest says it..
Dude Ron mental lol name is Metta peace
@@cheetahturner4576And? He was one of the best defenders in his era.
@@cheetahturner4576you hurt 😂😂😂
@@fredooogoated8335 yea lsu really need wrs lil we so hurt he 170lbs to small good luck
Mofo cries for 5 minutes rolling around on the floor when he gets "injured"
He ain't surviving the 90's
Metta is legendary for walking in on Kobe showering when Kobe had just lost the 08 Finals to the Celtics and saying that he will find a way to come to LA and help him win. The crazy thing is that he did.
That's was God tier....then kobe pass him tha rock.....rest was history
Yeah Kobe needed more help 😂 prime Kobe couldn’t beat a bunch of “old” guys.
Wasn’t Kobe around the same age as Boston’s big 3? lol
@@CG1224_ yeah all 4 of those guys were peers lol. KG 95' .. kobe and ray 96' and PP was 98' I think.
@@YZ4hunnid it’s just what everyone says about LeBron not being able to beat them is because they were “old”
Metta looking like he in a good space mentally, happy for him
Fa sho he def has mental issues but it looks like he can't along way. Never give up
@williambaldwin6241 took guts to say I wanna thank my psychiatrist after his chip!
Lebron a pro at 15 is crazy. Wow
The numbers don’t add up, LBJ turned 17 in 2001. He would’ve been 16 during the summer 2001.
@@atlanta1290Yeah, he was 16 in the summer of 2001.
People forget Bron was a man child. At 15, he was a big and strong kid built like a man. Same for Amari Stoudemire, he came into the league straight from HS and bullied grown men 😂😂
Bron was big for his age, but he was like 6’7 220 at the time, so basically like a young Kawhi, Tatum or PG. So he was big but not Zion big, Zion was already 270pounds in college, so i don’t know how much he weighed when he was 16, but probably around 250 so he was as heavy as a 23-24 yo Lebron already, thats a real man child lol, even in his rookie year Lebron was « only » 240
Who forgot? 😂
@@Anthonydu01630Don't think "man child" was used to say he was the biggest kid ever. I think they meant his combination of size, ability, understanding of the game etc made him well beyond his years from a basketball standpoint.
Oden came in at 50 years old
@@Anthonydu01630 Then what about Shaq before 18
15yrs old! Think about who you were at 15,lebron was playing pros as a baby and holding his own
NO TF HE WASN'T. Shut all that down you talkin.....
@@earlyreed357so a LOT of NBA pros lying?
@@earlyreed357 wtf would they lie about this for?
I was fat and playing halo 3
@@earlyreed357 you were pissing on your bed at 15
I like that Ron had to remind us that if Mike got the ball he’d score
Idk why people stay away from that pick up game and not elaborate....i think bron was really cooking and embarrassing nba players at that oick up game
Or maybe lebron was getting cooked
@@cheetahturner4576if Bron was getting cooked the world would have known about it

Bron was playing nba players at 15 while Jordan was getting cut from his high school team
What that have do with nba goat lol
@@cheetahturner4576means MJ wasn’t good enough and needed more high school experience and needed 3 years of college to become the player Bron was at 15. Try to think about where you were at 18 and be asked to be the face of the league. I don’t think many people could handle that pressure
@@DE4D_Poolhe wasn’t the face of the league at a 18 why do ya make things up
@@idgaf5794 bro he was literally on every cover of all the sports magazines “the chosen one” and his high school games were on ESPN. The nba was preparing him for it before he even entered the league. He definitely was being groomed for it as MJ was making his exit. Then magically his home town team gets the number 1 pick? Riiight keep lying to yourself but we all know he was the face of the league from day one ☝️
@@DE4D_Pool 👍
15 and could've been in the league? SHEESH
Bron the most hyped up player of all time.
Bron was 15 on pro level Bron different goat 🐐 💯
And live it all up to expectations, actually beyond expectations
Legendary story
Lebron at 15 was So great that he was able to give nba players a run for they money while Jordan at age 15 couldn’t make his high school basketball team for some reason people / new era haters love to hate Lebron for being a once in a lifetime player / athlete it’s easy to hate when you have seen someone be great they whole entire life in 21 seasons Lebron Is a 20 time all star and 20 Time all NBA player let that sink in #Witness
longevity merchant
You just proved that MJ is better caused he improved at a faster rate than Lebron. He hasn't improved on alot of his weaknesses while Jordan did.
@@ginuwinereynolds7291don’t be dumb mate jordan is better but not because of whatever garbage you just said
@@ginuwinereynolds7291actually we’ve seen LeBron evolve his game more than we’ve seen Jordan.
We’ve never seen a Jordan shoot 40% from 3 with a high volume of 3 point shots.
We’ve never seen Jordan play point guard and center in the same season.
LeBron has legit played every position and came in at the shooting guard position coming off screens and shooting middy’s
@@Ace-fe8gc Lebron's game has barely evolved. LMAO!! He still can't shoot 80% from FT line, still has bad footwork, still can't shoot going to his right, still has no post game, still has no consistent mid range game, and most important can't play off the ball
Did you notice how Metta said he couldnt remember that because Jordan and Lebron never were on the same court together, lebron confirmed this in his early interviews look it up.
Metta has so many stories
Why I just found this out now 😭
LeBron in year 17 is better than prime Charles Barkley. Bron won the chip that year
You sound all the way crazy. Like fck the helmet imma ride this bus no matter how many times my head hit.
@@earlyreed357 well then babie girl. Tell Dad how you feel. I can teach you about the game lil guy.
Met Ron a few times. Trained with his son when I was in school.
Now 21 YEAR OLD in the LEAGUE still ELITE BASKETBALL
What kind of slides is Paul George wearing? 2:54
salehe crocs
Yo like I would have been star struck just to watch all those pros in one gym.
King James will be miss when he's gone. Who will step up and be the face of the league.
Plenty of players can.
Ant is the most likely because he’s American and talks a lot.
Plenty of players can’t .. yall don’t even know what being the face means.. only person who can be the face is Ant or Wemby.. have to have the following and the talent. And personality
@@tyriquetaylor7827 You don’t know what grammar is nor what the word “y’all” means.
I’m one person writing “plenty of players can”.
Face of the league is simply who most ppl think of when it comes to the nba.
If Bron retires in a couple of years it could still be Curry. Second may be Durant.
Then again, maybe Ant or Wemby have overtaken them but it’s tough to overtake such notoriety.
Not me. Can't wait for that MF floper to exit the league
Lonzo ball
Lebron the greatest player I’ve ever seen. Goat 🐐!!
Ok blind man
Its ok lil boy, that just means you're ignorant and don't know that much.
👑LEBRON🐐
Based on what minus just paying for longer then everyone else
Kobe was that mamba mentality and Lebron was that goat mentality
It means the same thing lol
Lmfao lebron is the run away from a hard challenge ge screaming "I NEED HELP" and gets help from already established allstar/ hof players to only have a losing record when it matters most and the most finals losses in mba history
@@michaelperez3720And 2nd.most FMVPS! There's that! Lol
At 15 MJ was cut from his team. At 38 he was a shell of himself. Took yrs off in his prime.
Bron sustained greatness the entire time. Never quit the grind.
All that and still have more accolades than Lebron 😂
lebron have sports science around him. he literally have oxygen chamber on his apartment on his ig
PAUL MCPHERSON 💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿 CHICAGO LEGEND !!!
Lebron is like Shohei Ohtani of baseball ⚾
Wizards Jordan ain’t dropping no 30 a game 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Casual look up most points in nba history by age damn fool
MJ ain’t losing no finals or going 7 games neither 😂
@@user-ih7cd6xv5zwho did MJ face in the finals? A bunch of nobodies. Did MJ ever face 7 footers that could shoot lights out like Dirk and KD.. no. Did MJ face the greatest shooter in nba history… no. Did MJ face a player like Tim Duncan and a spurs team that had 3 HOF players in their prime? Nope. Well he did face the Celtics and we all know what happened… he was taking L’s. He just got lucky he didn’t face the pistons, lakers and Celtics in the finals
@@DE4D_Pool you just named a bunch of dudes that beat Lebron in the finals. Yall clowns always say he faced nobodies but he stopped a bunch of hall of famers from getting rings. You said a bunch of nonsense and don’t even know what you’re talking about. Jordan never beat the Celtics in the playoffs but he swept Detroit and beat the Lakers 4-1 for his 1st ring. He ended the pistons’ potential dynasty and killed the lakers’ dynasty in 91’. Do your homework kid…
@@Bottles93145 the lakers were already a dynasty son and Magic was old with aids. MJ didn’t beat anyone. The same Spurs MJ ran from as soon as Tim Duncan got into the league otherwise MJ loses to Duncan and David Robinson in 99. LeBron has faced wayyyyy tougher competition in his career and it’s not even close. KD and Steph on the same team? Who in MJ’s career compares to that? Duncan, Manu, Tony Parker and Kawhi? What team did Jordan face that compared to that? Hardin, KD and Russ? Sit down little girl this debate is over
You played nasty from the start
The numbers don’t add up, LBJ turned 17 in 2001. He would’ve been 16 during the summer 2001.
Bron said he was on Jordan team
that was 2004.
Lol he says LeBron was on Mike's team. He didn't want that SMOKE
Bron is just a freak of nature
Lebron at 15 crazy!!!! Cooking NBA guys but yall always say he’s not a dawg or don’t got it in him I say it all the time you can’t get this far without having dawg in you 🤣🤣🤣 smh
Leflop! Peds is one hell of a drug.
Grow up
Metta World Peace is a LAKER LEGEND for bombing threes and blowing kisses against BOS in Game Seven. Bryant's rebounding and his timely shots secured Title #16
Lebron may not the greatest basketball player, but he has the greatest NBA career by a mile. The amount of pressure young Lebron was already facing before even entering the league was insane. He went beyond all expectations. Dude is still getting criticize in his late 30's for how good he is. Others would've had a mental breakdown.
Bron bron is a monster!
🔥🔥
Lebron had games on tv in 8th grade
I remember because Mav told me they went. LBJ was a goon early and still lol We are the kids from Akron … I think Bron was 16
THEY were there, and THEY said 15
*(lebron was a sophomore in highschool)* duh!!
@@eyewatch2see77This was the summer of 2001. LeBron was 16.
this doesnt diminish lebron's legacy as the undisputed 9th greatest of all time!
MJ wasn't even close to Lebron at 12 years old . At 16 Lebron was being considered to be a pro while MJ was being cut in his highschool team .
What's your point? Players blossom at different times. No one cares who was better at 12 yr old lmao
And as professional basketball players lebron is by far inferior to Michael Jordan AND Kobe Bryant.
*@benjaminpadilla* 👍 EXACLTY!!
Lebron's been GREAT "his entire basketball existence"
THAT's the "true" meaning of his longevity ..
@@michaelperez3720Take that man draws out you mouth. You sound like a got DAMMMMMMMM fool.

He had just turned 16 basically
if it was the other way around you wouldn’t had said this 😂😂

Lebron was a "sophomore" in highschool

somebody DIFFERENT is asking him about it ... duh!!
There just tryna hype up this Brony agenda
King was an allstar level st 15 and still is now at 40
He definitely cooked Jordan Artest cant tell the truth and u can see it in his face 😂
Jordan and LeBron were on the same team...
Don't you think if the self proclaimed King played against Jordan AND cooked Jordan he himself would be bringing it up every chance he gets?
Tired of the rib story after this lls
The LeGlazers are about to have a filed dah on this....😂!!!!! Still don't matter he a walkin garbage can.....20 yrs amd 3 chips!?!? I DONT THINK SO!!!!!!!

why is everyone doing a podcast now lol
bruh go win a chip
Bro is trying to lol. A lot of great players never do.
Why u guys always have to bring up bron a** literally in every episode? U been milking this guy since he was 15, smh!
Every single basketball podcast, show, discussion, comment section etc… anything basketball related he’s being mentioned somehow. I get it he’s a legend but it’s absolutely ridiculous at this point.
This what happens when you’re the baby goat and he still playing at a high level
😂😂😂😂😂😂 if it was mj or Kobe it’ll be cool
@@runninwitdatmop152right most these people ain’t even fw Kobe until he died…let Bron get his shine
@@chuckk2fuego76 no bs folks stop glazing Kobe around that series when he had Dwight and Nash on his team and then when he passed away he was called the greatest 😂 he had maybe 5 seasons where he was the best player in the league
I’m surprised he didn’t say “MJ proceeded to drop 50 on me the next game.”
There are no goats in that family, its a joke to even think it. How much is labron paying these guys seriously
👑LEBRON 🐐
LeBron can't get pass Kobe to be number #2 and Micheal #1
Kobe’s is my personal idol/favorite player ever but he’s not number 2 all time. Number 2 is either ksreem or lebron it’s pretty much a toss up. I think I’d give it to lebron slightly
He’s definitely a better player than Kobe
Lol
Kobe isnt even Top 5, not even better than Tim Duncan who went 5-1 in the Finals, 1 Ray Allen shot away from being 6-0 like MJ, and he won 3 FMVP and 2 MVP, Kobe only 2 FMVP and 1 MVP, and Duncan didn’t play with prime Shaq (Best player in the world between 98 and 2004), his first 8 seasons… You see Jokic todays ? Well Shaq was just as dominant if not more ! Kobe was just Jamal Murray in the 4 Finals they made together, Shaq won all 3 FMVP, even Shaq is better all time than Kobe, at least if you value peak over longevity like most MJ stans 😉
@@Anthonydu01630 Kobe is not even the greatest laker of all time. To me the greatest laker of all time is magic Johnson.
For some reason I think they played against each other but it will be put out in footage when bron retire….i think every player that was there that day have been tight lipped about bron and Jordan runs there.

Elaborating that well doesn't make you an expert bruv. Your just a hater. I'm a LeBron fan for long but I consider Jordan as the number 1 GOAT. But your rant there doesn't make sense since some of that are opinionated.
While Jordan is currently unsurpassable, Lebron have something to say in the conversation too. Those who deny that are just purely haters. He could be number 3,4, or 5 but not including him in the Greatest of all is clearly stupid. As the best prospect, he clearly exceeded the expectations. because he was compared too much and battled too much with MJ, that's the reason people disrespecting him cuz "he didn't surpassed" Jordan. Lol he doesn't even need to surpass someone to be in the conversation cuz right before he got 4 chips, his stats and individual accomplishments are already qualified in the GOAT convo. Stop making Jordan like "he's the only one in the conversation" like bruh, Jordan's the GOAT on top but he's not the only great player out of many.
Ya Jordan fans make that nigga like he can’t be touch wtf if he was so great why he didn’t win one Without Pippen ✌🏾
Why did you stop Lebrons at 35 ? Stop cuttin his career short
You said LeBron played with guys that totaled 100 all-star appearances and MJ only 10. Why bring LIES into the debate? It makes all the "research" you provided non credible. MJ played with George Gervin, Artis Gilmore and Robert Parrish...that's 25 playoff appearances right there. He played with Pippen, Rodman, Richard Hamilton, BJ Armstrong, Horace Grant and Stackhouse ALL of them were all stars...that another 19 appearances. If you lie to debate...that means you are fabricating evidence...which means you feel like you don't have strong case.
@louralls1 I think it's funny how they bring up ALL of lebrons teammates , like he had 40 man roster with all of them on the same team...like bruh NONE of lebrons teams were as stacked as the bulls with Rodman pippen kucoc kerr ect. Ect.
P
