LeBron was 3 years into his career and was playing like a 10 year pro. AI was one of the most unstoppable players ever. Fun to watch both of them play!
Iverson's shot almost went in. Great game, AI at his absolute peak form, the 20 year old LeBron dropping 36/11/10 while guarded by Iguodala/Chris Webber all game long.
ensayofr Why are you comparing Micheal Jordan to other players when Micheal Jordan is the best player ever? Now you just went into a whole different direction with that. You can't compare Micheal Jordan to Kobe or LeBron. 6 rings, 6 finals MVP & 5 regular season MVP. Just stop. It's very disrespectful to even put them in MJ's league. LeBron never claim to be the best player. He just said he wants to be like his fav player MJ. Another thing, LeBron was not known as the scorer Kobe & MJ was. He's known as an all around player with athletic ability & great handles and passing ability for his size
That move and bucket by LBJ at ~15min was nasty...showed why he is the KING!!!...was unstoppable then and still he...He has a FANTASTIC game...G.O.A.T!!!
From 96-2005/06 there was no one on earth like A I. Shit, He was just different and too tough to deal with for anybody. Even Kobe had to admit his stretch was unstoppable!
@@solomons5669 no matter how efficient you anyone points out he wasn’t, it didn’t stop people like Kobe from saying he was unstoppable for a stretch offensively at just 5’11 with his moves. So yeah irrelevant to my comment
@@sanjuro2024 wow he lost the finals with an average team if only he would've been carried by 3 other all stars that'd make him a much greater/against all odds relatable player
Calvin Hobbes to be fair, jerry west is the all time finals loser amongst champions with a 1-8 record. And yet Jordan considers jerry west as goat worthy as he is. So as we can see, we Can’t get into finals wins and losses. They mean nothing
Iverson and Lebron are My two fav Players of all time and i don't like either one more than the other but Lebron Is definetly the better player . Whoever thinks otherwise might be delusional .
@@jakedooley5300MJ has a lot more skill than Lebron along with defense but Lebron is bigger, faster and stronger. Even MJ admitted that Lebron is a dominate player.
Iverson is my hero, my GOAT, he showed me that you can become something from nothing, if you're broke, with no money, future, car, house, etc... you can still work hard and be whatever you want. Allen Iverson saved my life. If I met him in person I would just say thank you. -Cam
I remind LeBron bashers all the time. When there was Prime Shaq, Duncan, Kobe, AI, Tmac, etc, LeBron was in the NBA already. Averaging 28, 7, 7 between age 18 and 21 for crying out loud!
15:03 Why were the sixers bentch looking for a travel call?! That was clearly 2 steps! Watch the replay! This is an example of LeBron being the 4th quarter man for Cleveland including a game tying bucket and a clutch free throw. Skip's clutch argument on him is pure hatung to me. Yes, maybe he's struggled sometimes at the free throw line more than a superstar should especially late in his career but you can't deny that he came up huge in the clutch (including free throws) during his first round in Cleveland and as a Heat player!
I've seen every super star miss and struggle during the end of games its just Bron had way so much expectations than all the rest of them that if he missed one or didn't take one then they were going to push a false narrative of him because of that but the man has been one of the best if not the best closer in nba history!!!
LeBron would've eventually got his ring in cleveland. The dude is a freak of nature. He's a threat from all angles and all aspects of the game. He can do it all and he can do it all WELL. It's fuckin scary how good this guy is.
He is a freak of nature with those attributes, but his 2007 team was awful. He made Mo Williams an All Star, he could not have won with that squad. Maybe if they did some trades and got some better players. I think he could've won with THIS squad. Larry Hughes was a good scorer, and Big Z's presence in the post was unmatched
LeBron was the only scorer, and playmaker. His team in Cleveland was built with spot-up shooters for floor spacing purposes to take advantage of his attacking game and ability to draw double teams. Yet 29ppg on 50% in 2009/10 with elite defense, something that A.I never came close too, and no, gambling for steals on every play does not make you a great defender.
Durant had a defensive monster in ibaka, an athletic scoring freak in westbrook and an all around player in harden. Lock down defender is sefalosha and a big man presence with perkins. no excuse.
LeBron just had a year that A.I. Wishes he had. Gold Medal, Championship, Finals & Season MVP. I'm a fan of A.I. but at the end of the day, A.I. is no way near on the level of LeBron James. James -- Overall two way player, A.I. -- Scoring machine.
LeBron in his prime crushes Iverson. Iverson played one side of the ball, and simply gambled on the other end. The only position in which he could contribute to his team was in the franchise position and having the optimal defensive team surrounding, allowing him to hoist 20 FGA per game. Only player in history who can't be guarded by anyone? Shooting horrendous percentages does not warrant that title. Winning the 02 scoring title shooting 39% is nothing to be praised.
A.I. Hall Of Famer the greatest little man of all time.....better scorer than Tiny Archibald ...as fast as Calvin Murphy and as tough as any man big or small that ever put on sneakers. You guys can say all you want but I watched Allen since day one and you don't know what you have until it's gone. I miss his 110% effort everytime he played. Not just anyone can put up a 60 point game that's under 6'1 :)
You're speaking in past tense, was my point. LeBron got by on athleticism years ago, before he had a post game. Because he gets like 3-4 breakaway dunks a game, people overlook the stepback jumpers and post moves he's added to his game. Kobe has more moves and the ability to hit tougher shots, true. LeBron (like Mike) has the ability to get EASY shots, which makes him a better scorer. You discredit his above average ball-handling for a 6'8 guy, and his ability to finish with both hands.
then AI wouldn't have been as fast as he is at 6ft . that's one of the things that makes lebron special is the fact that his so big yet so fast . they guy is a freak of nature . by the way AI and lebron are 2 favorite nba players of all time but lebron is on another level .
xBXRxAaron Faster pace, MJ averaged 40/9.9/9.9 per 100 possessions. Lebron has averaged a triple double per 100 twice in his career and has been close a few more times.
TroubleMan Dblock I didn't know how good Magic was till I began reading about him. You guy's know the Magic went to the Finals 9 Times....LeBron is mostly resembles Magic. LeBron=Magic. The closest one the resembles Jordan is Kobe.
Lebron has a jumpshot now , haven't you been watching the nba lately lol . Lebron's game has left the planete now . he's unguardable Now . His shooting 56 % from the field and 42 % from 3pt range .
I been searching for videos of guards killing AI none to be found but I see AI destroyed everybody. and Lebron is just a dam machine. amazing Jordan Bron AI Shaq Kobe My top 5
People have weird definition of the word 'scorer'. When you see a guy taking a LOT of shots and making a LOT of shots(you too, Kobe), people think he's a better scorer than a guy who takes smarter shots(Jordan). LeBron WAS just an athlete years ago; now, he consistently scores from everywhere--mid-range, the post, iso, even 40% from 3. If LBJ wanted to, he could average 40+.
Iverson's MVP "Seasons"?, fool he only got one, hey, and now since you want to bring the Finals up, who got a Finals MVP though? Bron or AI, exactly, The King has prevailed once again.
The only problem is that he hasn't mastered the 2 foot hop step, that's only only thing separates between Jordan's offensive game and LeBron's offensive game.

Amazing...LeBron was so unstoppable. Scored 36 without even having to connect on a jumpshot.
ensayofr He didn't went to the finals that year. It was in 2007
ensayofr VERY stoppable how? The only bad finals he had was in 2011 & 2007. The rest of the finals LeBron has shown up ..

Crazy seeing snow vs iverson always remember them on the same team..
If only they have made the playoffs this season, he was putting up MVP numbers, higher than his MVP year.
I’m watching Lebron beat the sixers 14 years ago and tonight when the lakers play the sixers he will beat the sixers like he did 14 years ago
