LeBron James just signed a 2 year max extension to remain a Laker and there’s been a lot of reaction. Some people are in favor of the deal and some aren’t but no one will admit what it means for LeBron’s mission to catch Michael Jordan. This is a look at the final phase of LeBron’s career.

I didn't expect to hear the phrase "lebron is like an evil farmer" today
Bruh this actually made me burst out laughing
Yes😂
This made me laugh IRL and is the most accurate description of Lebron ever.
Bro that cracked me up 💀
That's not a farmer, that's a parasite!
"The LA Lakers are now the LA Wizards." Absolutely savage! Love it because it's true.
Almost at 200K! Been here since 100K, love seeing how far you've gone, keep it up 🔥
beeb here 20k

Prob one of the best basketball-youtubers on youtube, keep it up 👍
I think having no real expectations can help LA make the playoffs and be a sneaky dark horse around trade deadline for a russ trade for a team that wants to dump salary as an expiring contract to clear books and get shooting from the perimeter. Lebron should have gone to Cleveland as a free agent. Imagine him on that team. Geez nobody scores and lebron and co just wear you down on defense
Yes agreed. His children are quite old now. It’s not like he needs to stay with his kids. But these are the last 3-4 years he can still be an impactful player and chase/surpass Michael Jordan’s status to get very close in some people. I just feel that he really didn’t think this through
He didn’t go to Cleveland because he needs them not to be elite. He doesn’t want Bronny going to a team like Sacramento. He’s probably hoping he goes to the Cavs.
Cavs don’t need or want him.
@@Schi8694 They don’t need him but when Bronny hits the draft, you’ll see.
As of rn Bronny would be a late second round pick if he’s lucky. Dudes turned no heads & all he’s got going is the fact he’s LeBrond son.
@@larrycrumbs9219 He is thte 43rd player in high school and 7 best sg that is damn good and each year, he get WAY better
@@larrycrumbs9219 If Lebron didn’t make his statement, I don’t think he’d be picked.
Funny that the MJ Wizards team is mentioned cause MJ with Kwame Brown being the second best player on the team won more games than this past season's Lakers team with 5 future Hall of Famers on the team. I don't think it matters how washed up or injured everyone was. It's such a huge talent anomaly.
Amen and this is AFTER MJ spent his retirement out drinking and smoking cigars.. but UNLIKE Lebron, Jordan made his team MUCH better
@@ChrisSmith-tu9bu Jordan almost won 40 games
Shows how much easier it was to win when MJ played.
@@youtubegm8256 nope. it justs shows lebrons lakers play no defense and has the most turnovers. didnt even made the play in. omfg
@@unsungheroes8556 The Western Conference right now is the best Conference ever. The NBA is the most competitive it has ever been. It shows that LeBron’s team is trash because LeBron is still a good defender and possibly the best offensive player right now.
"Even worse than the Clippers" What, they had Lob city during that era, a rare time where the Clippers were actually the best show in town and one of the best in the NBA
Love you man always looking forward to watching new videos
Keep up The Grind! A.M Hoops. Love the content.
I honestly thought LeBron might’ve played out the season with the Lakers and join the Clippers next season on a discount. He could’ve remained in LA while still being on a contender... I’m surprised he signed the extension.
Unless lebron wanted to completely demolish his legacy by joining a trash franchise like the clippers on a $300k contract
he’d rather go to Cleveland
@@ry_an. I think if they have George and Kawhi. It’s not too bad. And at the moment, Lakers definitely sucks more than Clippers
Fire video dude🔥🔥🔥
keep up that grind A.M. Hoops !!! loving that content man
If Jordan took games off during the season he coulda been playing longer...but "load management" wasn't a thing bk in the day
Bruh he took 2 years off playing basketball completely i think thats much better than load managment
Bruh, Jordan rested for 2 seasons
That was bc of tht scandal
Lol yea this was a bad comment Jordan literally could have played atleast 5 more seasons and decided not to
Plus he was still active not at the game in street clothes
Don’t usually subscribe to sports commentary channels because they just pop up and I click on topics I’m interested in. But after watching these videos for a while now I’ve come to realize I really value his opinions because of the research that goes into it. I’m so used to commentary channels just going off the top of their head, saying things like “If I remember correctly he averages 30 points.” Their opinions might still be valuable but this channel has a more calculated approach to opinions which is crazy considering the consistency of uploads. Also those end of video transitions are smooth. So anyway that’s why I’m subscribing.
I find your analysis very sensible. Putting it plain and simple - its REALTALK.
Thank you for educating these kids on Jordan wizard yrs✊🏿✊🏿💯💯💯
It’s a better day when am hoops uploads
Been here since like 50k. Proud of u man for reaching 200k
Kind of like how I get closer to England when I swim 10 feet out into the ocean!
I love your videos
I disagree. Bron wants more rings. He just wants to do it his way. Same thing with Dame, except Portland really doesn’t have a chance.
facts
Nah, he'd rather stay in LA then win more rings, which is different mindset to him in the past. But theres nothing wrong with that anyway
Yeah because the only argument jordan fanboys have against him is “6 > 4”
His way is jumping teams, so this is opposite of his way.
@@EezoTheChezo
Or 6 wins vs 6 losses?
😆😆😆
200K !? it should be 1m before 2023 ,,, your fan from SAUDI. keep up the great work
1. Yeah it’s about to be 10 years since lebron won his last MVP. You have to acknowledge he was cherry picking last year to catch Kareem’s record. He even planned playing in just enough games to qualify for the scoring title but sat out when he saw he had no chance to win.
2. I can’t believe you just called lebron running to contenders instead of grinding with one team, his “killer mentality”
3. As long as lebron is under Jordan, his priority will always be winning. He defined his entire career by chasing jordan and 19 years in he’s still coming in short. Yeah his priority is still winning. Especially when you see he could have caught and even surpassed Jordan. That hangs over his head.
4. Jordan did not come back to the wizards because “he loved the game” of course he loved the game but the actual reason was because the Wizards front office promised him a 20% stake of ownership. Only to have him boost their profits for two years then fire him to avoid giving him any ownership. He was tricked.
You must dream a lot about Jordan.
LeBron averaged 36 points the last 11 games he played last season. And you're telling me he sat out the 9 remaining games because he thought had "no chance" of beating Embiid for the scoring title who was ahead of him by a measly .3 point average? Well I guess if you're riding Jordan that deep, you'd be delusional enough to forget about basic math.
Seriously why is your videos on top of my notifs every morning you put Magic in A.M
Best transitions of any bball channel!
Awesome analysis
dropping facts!
Something that has to be stated - if you would've asked the Lakers' goals before the AD trade, I think their realistic hopes were winning 1 title/2 deep playoff runs - 2 titles or more would've been a huge success... And the Lakers have matched their goals - winning is the only thing that matters, The Westbrook trade was bad, but they would've lost anyway this year - probably a play-in team sneaking to lose to the Griz/suns again. AD was always an injury-prone guy, Lebron is old - this duo was good for a very short term.
I wouldn't call that matching their goals. I'm pretty sure they didn't plan on one title run sandwiched in the middle of four years of mediocrity and no future until 2035.
@@whobitmyname they have a future because they are the freakin lakers. They won a chip because of the AD trade. Their realistic goal for this year, back when they did the trade was not to be a contender, but to consoldiate for the future. The trade was good short term and terrible long term
@@whobitmyname This is the Lakers, they will get superstars until 2035 - they don't need this picks as much as other teams do. If they planned for 3 championships, they should've never trade for AD/make it Lebron's team - This is practically a miracle that Lebron is playing at the level he is at right now - it is unexpected IMO. Their ceiling was 2 titles, if AD would've been healthy in 2021, they would probably win it, and that's it - it could've been a disaster like the clippers/Nets - they are the only 2019 superteam that was successful
I totally agree.
LeBron is now at the point where winning doesn't make a significant impact on his legacy. Already at Mt. Rushmore already of basketball.
On yours lol
Lakers made a big mistake. They should’ve traded him.

He wants someone to retire his number, hence the reason he has decided to stay in Lake Town instead of burning more bridges ;)
This vide aged like a fine, fine wine
I hate to see LBJ start to not chasing down MJ
Maybe LeBron signed 2yrs to give Bronny time to develop in college
If Lebron leaves people would say that he is a ring chaser, if he stays, he doesn’t care about winning no more. Lose lose situation for Lebron
Winning was definitely Michael Jordan's top priority in Washingtion. He damn near had them in the playoffs until his injury in his first season with them.
Casey I know trade rumours are down but can we get an award predictions video
Idk why everyone it's writting off Lakers.... Westbrook,AD and LeBron can contend if healthy
I love how you said “Mariah Carey”.
Brady was never the highest paid QB in the league and has 7 rings. Bron always demands top dollar and team control, it doesn't work. If Bron took the Vet minimum or even like 10 mil less a season, every team he ever played with would probably be dynasties at least going back to back. But having bron is like having a pair of golden handcuffs. They look nice but you can't do much with them on.
Yo mj is the GOAT #betterthanbron
I listened to the 1st seven minutes of this video and still didnt understand how bron got closer to mj
Jazz isn't trading for Russ. Danny Ainge isn't that dumb.
Obviously your wrong because he's got players option to leave after 23/24 if it don't go as plan these next to seasons
Stop comparing these dudes damn man
Hi Casey!
The problem with the Lakers acquiring Kyrie is that there would be no excuses, nor scapegoats should (when) they fail to get past the 2nd round of the playoffs (even with Kyrie).
LBJ taking the max is the greatest indicator that winning is no longer a priority and as long as the team’s construct is suspect, excuses will arise and LBJ will be completely absolved (unfairly) of blame.
So many things wrong with this video. I'd love to see what Stephen A would say to you 🤣
Only OGs know when casey lost a bet and shaved his hair. Been a sub before you hit 10k subs and its been a great journey for you ever since. Lets reach that 500k! Much love from germany ✌🏽
0:40 Can someone fact check these statements?
1) Is 2013 the year Kobe had his career worst field goal %?
2) The worst shooter of anyone who scored at least 20 pts per game in the last 50 years?
2015-16 kobe’s final season he shots. 36% from the field on 16 attempts
2014-15 Kobe averaged 22 on 37% shooting. I believe the worst season efficiency wise averaging 20+ by any player
Kobe shot 37.5 percent FG scoring 22 per gMae in 2014( he only played 6 games in 2013 recovering). It was his worst FG and indeed the worst for a 20 point scorer, but it ended up being Kobe’s second worst FG cuz he shot 35 percent his final year.
Why can't you look it up
@@NewAgeSlaves I think his point was for us to see that this guy lied in the video. Which is true because google says other wise lol. It took me 3 seconds to see, wonder where A.M got his info on this one .
Your finger fucking broken?
😆😆😆
I love am hoops
Same
Same
2:40 he said lebron got killer mentality
2012 ECF Game 6 & 7
2013 Finals Game 6 & 7
2016 Finals Games 5-7
Hevthevgoat
Nets not trading KD, so they not trading Kyrie
That Wizards team wasn't that bad before the injuries. If they had just a little more time to grow, they could've been Eastern conference contenders.
The LAWIZZARDZ LMAO
No LeBron impact is not the same don't pump him up he's doing just fine
The Lakers held him back??? Lmfaoo these excuses for LeBron are wild. He picked this team and the went under 500. He wasn’t an MVP candidate last year. On a good team, the way he can play, absolutely, but not last year.
I think he was in the top 3 mvp candidate before solomen or whatever his name is rolled his ankle. After the injury happened, it was game over and had no chance of winning it. I don’t remember but I think he was 1 or 2 before injury.
I mean its like what four future HOFers, One was recently an MVP
“how does this affect lebron’s legacy@
It doesn’t bro.
Nice.
Lebrons whole family doing tiktok dances makes me want to go to the next plain.
Bron gets hate for moving teams to win and gets hate for staying with a bad team 😭😭
You watch how many buckets labaran he gets in garbage time. Jordan sat when games were over....still not close. Jordan played for Charity at 40. It doesn't matter how many crosses and churches lebroon is seen at, his political tare is only getting to 2. In my eyes 3.
Jaylen Brown next video A.M. Hoops 🙏🙏🙏
I believe Russ called LBJ. like Russ called Kawi.
I'd partner Russ and a pick for Beverly and Bojan. Then partner THT + Nunn and other pick for J Isaac
Beverly. Reeves
Walker
Lebron JTA
Bojan Isaac
AD Bryant
I think this defense (with enough spacing) will return them to 2020 levels. Kyrie I believe will make defense worse and only help spacing so much (he's one guy). I'd rather bet on a healthy AD + Lebron with great defense and ok spacing
Asking players to take less money in order to win is the worst take in bball ahaha. These fucking franchise owners and billionaires would never fucking take a pay cut for the players, why the fuck should players take less money for them?
The only way he gets close to MJ is they happen to be dining at the same restaurant!
Lebron?? Killer mentality?? Haha now there’s 3 words that are NEVER EVER USED TOGETHER. LBJ never had a killer mentality.
LEBRON IS THE BEST PLAYER OF ALL TIME.
Lol, no he aint
2nd best
At his peak he joined D Wade's team to get his first championship. That is not GOAT mentality at all.
Guys, he just wants attention.
@@javigar133 is my opinion, u have yours
It's fair
Again with the stats. LeBron knows how to pad his stats so nobody can give him shit. Look at who he faces while he ducks the actually good teams. Doesn't play a lick of defense too. This is a rare moment when AM Hoops doesn't know what the fuck he is talking about.
Bron had 56 points against the warriors last season and what happened? They won
@@killinghawkz They didn't make the play-in tournament with 5HOFs and 4 top 75 players lmfao. what a joke, that's what happens when you have 2 stat padders in th team in LBJ and Russ
I spent the nineties watching the Bulls dominate. For me, MJ is the best of all time when he was at his best, but he retired twice and his level dropped off. The fact that LBJ is still a top 5 player in the league today after such a long career at near MJ peak levels is unbelievable.

@Bebeto_7 wiz dude
sorry but Wizards Jordan was bad. stats might say otherwise but watching him was painful.
He came down from the office to play because the Wizards sucked, what were you expecting?
He was still All Star level but found himself as nearly the only scoring option, he was forcing a lot of shots because the other players weren’t stepping up.
Bro why does everybody keep putting Russ to the jazz they do not want him
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣all them 7 30pt games were in blow out losses and stat padding garbage time buckets to get 30 stop cap 🤣
That trade is spot on, Brick+1 pick forctwo good players is way better than trading for a nutcase, Lakers are a disaster
I honestly don’t trust kyrie. I would rather go for the jazz trade. Obviously kyrie is better but the thing is can you trust him? No drama, no bs, actually show up to games, etc.
@@TSierra they got Lebron handling Kyrie's drama
This whole video is just low key disrespect to Anthony Davis. Y'all remember that dude who almost won finals MVP in 2020? The guy everyone was saying is more skilled and better than Giannis? Now the guys been hurt for a while, but I think AD and Kawhi are about to put on a SHOW this year. Lakers aren't a dumpster fire yet. They've had a couple down years with injuries but I'm hopeful that this year will be a revenge tour.
wow
Bron secured big 💰💰💰
“Last December” lol it’s a month man
Lakers today is in a much better situation. They have superstars and hall of gamers whereas Wizards had no one. Also MJ retired for a few years before he came back.
MJ played for lowly Wizards because of agreement to sell his minority share in exchange to play for ticket sales. Because of his playing his 10 percent share could be valued much higher. So he perhaps still had love for basketball and wanted to get the Wizards to playoffs but ultimately he played because he was to get a huge gain for his investment so that he could have enough money to buy a franchise.
I don't think this is completely fair, it's not like Anthony Davis is some scrub. And I don't think they're done figuring out a trade for Russ. I thought he might have leveraged signing an extension to make them expedite the trade on the terms that he would like but he may also consider some of his past tactics to be a bit of a distraction for the team
He really wanted demar
Can Lakers trade Westbrook for Jazz Mike Conley and Donovan Mitchell?
No why would a rebuilding team trade for that price they will atleast want 3picks after the gobear trade they made
I predict am hops will hit 1M subscribers within 2 years
Hi am hoops!
Don’t sleep on the lakers we’re not done yet
Lebron is like Galactus, who consumes planets to sustain his life force.
Casey Kerman should work for espn
tryin to send my Blazers to LA? come on, man!
they may trade Hart at the deadline, but I think Grant will be a Blazer for the at least a couple years.
to be fair to jordan, he played for the wizards because he was involved with managing the team
he is closer to mj in his wizards days…because he is ood as hell but thats about it.
I assume team hopping before Bronny is in the league is pointless to LeBron.
Lebron James wishes he could be Like Mike
He's just waiting for Bronny. Why not stay in the best market where he can watch the boys develop.
6 and 0! You can't beat that....!!! It's done deal...
Great video... you're delusional tho if you really believe that
I think we are a bit over-complicating things here... LA tried to get better this offseason but couldn't by having Kyrie and getting rid of Russ. Lebron is fine playing out next season to average as many points as he can and get his alltime record... The Lakers won't be relevant and Lebron knows it... Next year's offseason is going to be loaded. Lakers can def get Kyrie by then and another max player with AD and Lebron taking a pay cut on 3 years. Last but not least, Bronnie might not be in the NBA in the next 2 years so Lebron can wait out to improve in the next 2/3 years with LA before his 'farewell' tour. Believe it or not, he can play at high level until he is prob 43-45 barring a huge injury...
How old is affect LeBron’s legacy
