LeBron's Most UNDERRATED Season! - He Played EVERY Game!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 9 เม.ย. 2020
- Before JR Smith's epic meltdown, LeBron undoubtedly had one of his most historic seasons of his career! He single handedly carried the Cavaliers back to the finals for his 8th straight finals appearance, but this time without Kyrie Irving and a lackluster Kevin Love. LeBron beat the Pacers in 7 games, tore up the Toronto Raptors with amazing shots and a buzzer beater for the ages. LeBron then overcame the odds and destroyed the Celtics in 7 games after they went up 2-0 on their home floor. The King would then continue his dominance in Game 1 of the Finals vs the SUPERTEAM GSW where he scored 51 points… The rest is history, but let's look back at his historic season and cherish LeBron's most EPIC moments for what might be his most underrated season of his long and beautiful career!

This was hands down probably his best offensive season. his skillset was very sharp this year combined with his passing IQ and athleticism.
nah its still 2013 but if we talking about playoffs then yes its 2018.
'17 and '18 are his best versions offensively... Overall, probably '13
Nah bro
I think 2015-2016 was his best season overall.
@Zachary Ravel I think you can definitely make the argument he was better this season notwithstanding his 08-09 stats. After LeBron's back injuries at the end of his Heat days/early Cavs re-run days, the game slowed down for him on the offensive end. He stopped making a lot of the bad plays in big moments that had plagued him throughout a good portion of his career at the time (2011 finals vs Mavs and 2013 finals vs Spurs, in which the Spurs were probably the better team). He understood how to get to his spots more easily, incorporated more post play, and was just much craftier overall on the offensive end. I believe this season, particularly his playoff run, showed how much he developed as far as his scoring prowess.
Box score treats buckets equally--can't always look there after a game. The nuggets lie in the nuances of the sport.
People started to say lebron is the GOAT after 2016, it was great but for me this is what made him the GOAT, In 2016 he had a pretty good team but in 2018 he had to work with so little, and they basically changed the whole team halfway through the season, i have never seen in my life one athlete carry his team by himself so much and leading them so far, in all sports. How he didnt get MVP baffles me
Speaking facts bro, no 🧢 lbj goat 🐐
BIG FACTS
sotskuo havin won nothing since 2016 goat what
@@timc5145 yea i dont expect people with no brain like you to understand greatness its okay tho
sotskuo I guess the whole word have no brains but you Lebron an the Lakers fans cause y’all the only people that believe the bs you talking
The day this man retires basketball will never be the same
@@Jesko_VRS exactly.
TheShadowang1s IKR
What it's changing is the game itself cause of all this new rules and stuff. Just the fact they don't call travel, or protecting players calling stupid fouls, etc.. That kind of stuff is changing the game imo
@@ronmb2200 hahahaha I was expecting a comment like this... We all know LBJ is the goat, but the game ain't gonna change when he leaves. That's a fact.
You never know. There could be a player 10 years from now that would make LeBron look like a scrub and make the prime Warriors look like a high school team.
Basketball is a forever evolving sport.
This man so slept on . And it's actually wild to say the best player in basketball is slept on .. Underappreciated for sure
James 💪🏾💪🏾
Too many haters
C P people like u make my stomach hurt
C P Same as Jordan being remembered for getting suspended from the league after his gambling addiction was publicized
C P negativity is bad for yiu
Best season I've seen a basketball player play. All 82 and then what he did in the playoffs. Game winners, like eight 40 point games. He was bugging.
Spoflash won’t ever be another king james 🤷🏽
@@goatmyles8661 They'll be a bronny but not king James Bronny is prince James tho
BeatsbyZay yup i feel sorry to lebron he dont have a back up teammate to score 25 points concistensy. And the game 1 of finals is the ref are trash
Facts
LeThanos and in year 15
they traded everyone and he still took them to the finals.
They said everything to this man, they charged him with every possible fault, they blame him for everything he has done and for everything he has not done since his first years where he played under a pressure that none has ever felt, not even closely. To all of them I say you will understand his greatness only when he will be gone and you will regret it to not have enjoy and embrace greatness in its pure ancestral aspect.
Davide what you talking about when he lose he is never at fault they always say he did not have any help when he wins he the only one to have achieved it he carried the team. 2016 finals no one seams to give kiyrie game winning shot props but they talk about lebron block. When he got swept 2018 jr was the one who seams to be why he lost the nba championship when he made 1 mistake in game 1 what about game 2,3,4 lebron is a top 3 player all time but don’t act like he gets the negative repercussions of his lost
@@h.r.a5480 cavs wouldnt have been in the those 4 finals if lebron didn't join
@@h.r.a5480 hes a top 2 player btw
@@andyly5377 top 3
@@andyly5377 Kobe's better than Lebron
The only people underrating it are LeBron haters who use that finals loss against him as somehow a negative to his legacy....Smh, never seen anyone put up an easy efficient 40 on a nightly basis in the playoffs like its nothing.
There were multiple players who did this and won, but what’s winning anymore? It’s just about putting up stats right?
@@tylerriley5976 how the fuck can you win against Curry, KD, Klay, Draymond with a team full of bums ? Put any player in that team and i bet that no one can lead that team to the final except LBJ. He dropped 51pts on 4 allstars bro.
Wade 6 agree bro, probably neither the 90s bulls could have won
@@Andrea-ok5bo GSW would destroy teams from 80-90s era with pace, ball movement and 3 point shots. People say 80-90s teams are better at defending but the fact is they just more physical and they didn't defense at perimeter so GSW could easily beat them. 🤷♂️
Brad Shango i was not even born in the 90s boomer... anyway the 90s bulls werent shit apart from jordan: 2 hall of famer in pippen and roddy, horace grant, kerr, kukoc....they were monsters, i think that the match up against GSW wuold have been a must watch!!!!
This was the season where the goat hype was the most legitimate
2016 NBA Finals: Best LBJ series ever
2017-2018 NBA Season: Best LBJ season ever
2018 NBA Finals Game 1: Best LBJ game ever

@Silver Is The Name Bruh they didn't even make the 8th seed IM DEADD!! HAHAHA
Silver Is The Name the pelicans aren’t winning this year probably one they get more experience but not this year
Silver Is The Name bruh
@@malikairace3028 well you cant lose if you dont make it there.

Well said
LBJ IS MVP IN THAT SEASON NOT JAMES HARDEN!!!
The real beard was dubbed MVP get off nuts Bronsexual
O Dogg did the beard make the finals? Oh ok
Amma lebron fan but the mvp that season is for the beard..
Shane j Villegas yup. But when Lebron left after that year the cavs were the worst team I. The league. That’s called valuable
@rxosn his ass got carried. L3-6ron
This man is the best basketball player I have ever seen. Unbelievable😲
Still have PTSD from the fadeaways in the playoffs he had against my raptors. it was unbelievable
When he hit fade-away on Lowry I turned that shit off and went to bed. I was mad asf the next day.
Kev but at least we got a chip from kawhi
I was speechless that game. I didn’t even understand wtf I was watching. Cuz had like 8 straight pts off fadeaways only.😂😂😂
*Mama there goes that man*
Phil Annan 😂😂😂
The only NBA player that could fit that line and from 2003 to the end, no question.
Dusk TheHunter facts
Thats his best season ever, the greatest season of any basketball player in history. Start to finish.
Agreed. He was so fucking aggressive and accurate in 2018. He should have won the MVP. No question.
EDIT: Also, his playoff run that year will NEVER be replicated. Unless he does it again.
I'm glad he has someone he can depend on now. But don't get it twisted... He's still a fucking monster on the court. Just look at his utter dismantling of the Bucks and the Clippers.
lol
no no boi
Brun no that was clearly not the best season of any basketball player in history
@YALL NEED HELP YOU Don't know basketball mj 1988 was the absolute best
As a Lebron fan, he was a beast this season but I also believed in the "Lebron system" where he was dominantly isolating or handling the ball most of the time. It really slowed down the flow of the offense but that was how they were running their game during that time. I had my doubts when he went to LA, cuz I thought that the "Lebron system" would be the flow of the offense. But he's really proven me wrong, it was great seeing the Lakers play their style of basketball with a really nice system. I don't know if Lebron just needed better teammates, better coaches, or management, heck they have better chemistry compared to the Heat days in 2010-2014 and that team had Pat Riley and Coach Spo! Just really amazed how he still gets better even at year 17. Props to Bron, wishing the NBA would come back soon, so we can finish this great season.
I think that the "lebron system" its BS because he can and its willing to play off ball, it was just a matter of not having anybody that could create his own shot on the Cavs that year.

Diego Puebla yeah, he played amazing off ball in Miami
This is his finals stats

Wow
I don’t know how but he made everyone in the east look like bums well that toughhhhhhh 😂😂😂
Hilda Baah especially the raptors 😂😂
Maybe it’s because they were bums...
@@iNostraD Number 1 in the east got toyed with by Lebron and a decent team.
Troll King Number 1 in the east without their best player, don’t forget that.
@@iNostraD so they are thatgood right? Even without their best player, your logic is confusing
*THERE'S ONLY ONE PERSON WHO CAN STOP LBJ . . . ITS LBJ*
Yo it's jr smith... HAHAHAHA
Here's a fun thought experiment. Imagine in 2018 Harden was traded for Lebron straight up at the start of the season. How far would Cleveland go and how far would Houston go? If you think, like I do, Houston would get to the Finals and win, hit the like. If you think, Cleveland would have done worse with Mr. 32 ppg, hit like. If you disagree, please comment and tell us why.
There are no wrong answers, only opinions here.
Bron robbed from mvp 😔
Forgiven Sinner Houston is by far the better team. CP3, LBJ and Clint Capela on Houston and James Harden and Kevin Love on Cleveland. Both are playoff teams but Houston has the edge. I like this little theory.
GoldenHoops thanks for this video!
LeBron is the reason why nephews called the east for more than ten years weak (beginning with his first Heat Season).
You showed cleary that in 2018 LeBron carried his weak team (compared to other east contenders) and coaching staff to the finals against four Allstars.
*Yall can’t sit here and tell me if Vince can last til 43 in the league, Lebron could last til he 45 with the way he manages his body and health. Like be honest*
45 is hard for him as he plays lot of minutes
Vince became a role player for like last 10 years
LeBron ain't gonna be a role player for sure so 40 is max and that will be his farewell season
LeBron would finish with 45000 career points by the time his career ends
Veda Rishi *Damn, you ain’t never lied🆗🆗🆒*
@@Terror832
And have a 3-12 finals record
@Clippers Suck
Why you sucking the whole Clippers team do?
How could you hate on this man. This is one of the greatest seasons of all time
LeBron was COMPLETE that season from shooting, passing, IQ, well athletic (than most players), defense, and CLUTCH GENES! I remember he blocked Jimmy Buckets then hit a game winner over him too. And man, lots of clutch shots in the playoffs while carrying a team that had no business in the Finals..smh
His Greatest Season EVER! The Most Complete LEBRON Ever! 2012-13 LeBron was the BEST (Prime) LeBron but not this Complete! IQ was off the CHAINS!
And James Harden won MVP that year because he was robbed too many times. Harden was robbed in 2015 but 2018 he robbed somebody else (other James - LBJ).
THE GOAT!!!🐐🐐
Not in a long shot.
Russell Westbrook what do you mean?
Russell Westbrook who is the GOAT then🤫🤫
@@jonathan-dj5rl Michael Jordan
LBJ WAS ROBBED OF A MVP TROPHY THIS SEASON!!!! GOLDEN HOOPS STILL DROPPING DIMES🏆🏆🏆
That season was criminally underrated and underappreciated he carried a garbage team (if you can even call it that) through the playoffs to the Finals. Then while in the process of carrying them to a would-be decisive Game 1 win his sorry excuse of a teammate makes the dumbest mistake ultimately costing them the championship smh
Big Glock Horizontal Totally agree!!!
BIG FACTS!
Big Glock Horizontal idk about that last part. It was only game 1 when Jr’s dumbass did that. I think they would have won at most 2 games
give Jordan that kind of team, he’ll be out in 1st round :)
Fax
Bron had a solid year but do I see Jordan losing to Victor Oladipo’s Pacers in the first round with home court advantage? Nah lol
Jeffrey Grinds uhhhh lebron won that series
Franklon Rice I know. I never said he lost. I was responding to someone saying Jordan would have lost in a situation like that.
@@jeffreygrinds8322 i think with the exact same team, he would have. Jordan was a great player but jordan was a ball hogger. pacers had good defense and oladipo was scoring like 40 pts. the thing that makes lebron so versatile is making everyone around him better.
I dont get it, this guys videos are under-rated man
As a lebron fan from his high school days , this was an amazing video and much appreciated 🔥
5 allstars on a finals game🤣
I have to agree Lebrons 2017-18 season we saw he can be killer when needed #goatjames
2018 Lebron was juss a different breed💯💪💪
Great vid dude
Great vid
this video gave me chills. AMAZING
Loved it!
This is my favorite LeBron season by far. Although it ended terribly, you just got to see everything he had in his bag. Should have won the MVP
It’s funny how he carried that sad excuse of a team to the nba finals
Funny but remarkable!😉
2018 Bron was something else. If Harden wasn’t going crazy and or have won a MVP earlier, this one was for sure his.
I see ya everywhere dude lol remember me
Your comments about lebron is everywhere
his vision is honestly godly.
Happy to see you play in my era 🙏🏼
What a season
This is some dope content
That and one at 1:17 to go up one got me so hyped I almost punched my TV
2018 playoff bron is the greatest basketball player ever imo
Epic montage
And with the REAL winner of the 2018 MVP Award: LEBRON JAMES
I dont understand why his driving spin move is so underrated. Its kinda 9ne of his go-to move.. so smooth
Nice vid
Man it's unbelievable. One man army and show. Hail the king.Miss watching him...
He deserved the MVP this year... 27.5 points, 9.1 assists, 8.6 rebounds. He played 82 games! He was clutch in every game.
You know it’s a great vid your watching when it’s 8 minutes long but felt like 3 🤣🤟🏼
This one of the hardest LeBron videos I’ve ever seen🤣🤝
Unstoppable...only this
Again...mama there goes that man...You amazed me lebron everytime you play basketball
2018 LeBron was insane. If we see this version of LeBron this year.....
THAT WAS FIRE
Lebron carry everything start to finish and did not even miss a game! That’s amazing! Lebron s top 5 no matter what
Appreciate Greatness 👑
this was my all time favorite season of watching Lebron James. This man was a literal one man wrecking crew and the way he went through the playoffs like he was on mission. Plus (no homo) he looked good on the new Cavs Jerseys too.
One of the best seasons I’ve watched , dude was unstoppable
Who would have ever known when he got drafted in 2003 he would be this good and go to the finals and win MVP's and hit so many buzzer beaters. And on a side note I have a you tube channel type in Russell Mills May 22, 2017.
NOW THATS MUSIC TO GO ALONG WITH THIS AMAZING LEGENDARY INTRO!!!!! GOLDEN HOOPS YOU THE MVP!
Season 2017-18 proves that he is legend 🔥
he was unbelievable that playoff-run
do a video on stephen curry
(love the vids)
The Goat Of Basketball End Of Discussion honestly the way he plays is so much better and entertaining than mj
bro this season was so good man
Agree! i Believe this season is soooo underrated. He was a god, unstoppable. Just so sad for that game 1 of the finals
The goat debates started after 2018 :) shook their feet
Most of his seasons are underrated man should win mvp almost every damn year
i swear y’all gon miss him when he gone man... like frfr erybody got somn to say when it comes to him but this league thrives off off him. respect to the king man on erything i love he deserves the crown 👑
The most focused athlete of all time he didn't even let the midway of the season team change brother him I still can believe that season that year he had
5:11 and 5:43 wow so clean
The strength speed athleticism and vision there will never be another Lebron
he is like Kratos! old but Gold!!!!
So cool
He was probably a more complete player here than in Miami, better shooter. But the efficiency and dominance in Miami I think were the best of his career, 12-13 in particular.
Best 2018 cavs
What more can you say about this guy because he has done it all on the basketball court and he has been a force in the league for a long time. And on a side note I have a you tube channel type in Russell Mills May 22, 2017
the season he became my favorite player ever. LONG LIVE THE KING
That man is playing a game from a different planet!!
This is my favorite lebron season . With a nice a lil 50 ball game 1 in the finals
Unbelievable
A video on Boban marjianovic please. The unsung giant.
Wow.....
Greatest playoff performance
#1 The History
2015 -16 was also good
WoW!!!!!!

Golden Hoops 💪🏾💪🏾
this was an unprecedented play-off performance. mj couldn't have performed a sequence of games like this.
Gotta love bron even if you not a fan much respect
A good one
