The fact that this man won 66 games with delonte West and mo Williams is beyond crazy. When LeBron retires the haters will realize they were watching something special.
Omar Lee exact bro. Mike couldn't even sniff 50 wins as the lone Star but ppl call him the goat smh. This man back to back 60 win seasons 66 one year. U telling me he had 7 fewer wins alone than the 73 win warriors???? Niggas be hating on Bron BC they know
If LeBron could've had just one allstar team mate or even just a decent big man when he had this kind of dominance before, he would get that 2 or maybe 3 rings for his young career.
Omar Lee Jordan made the playoffs with an 32-50 record.Nuff said
To be fair Mo Williams was a good player but certainly not a good enough second option for most 66-win teams.
This team was great on defense and in rebounding plus everyone fit LeBron's style of play. If you go on basketball reference and look at this team they were actually expected to win 65 games. Replace LeBron with Jordan and they'd probably win the title.
Lebron is still an athletic freak but the man in this video was a video game character.
I swear 😳
Video Game James
This explains why Paul Pierce hates on LeBron James 😂
Enrique Alvarez he will be remembered as Lebrons bitch.This guy didnt even start at an all star game and never made an all nba 1st team.Not even top 25.
Enrique Alvarez I remember when Paul Pierce committed a hard foul on a young LeBron in a preseason game smh... I be telling niggas The Truth is his only rival.
Aaron Perry LeBron James has no rival . Steve Kerr admitted it after the Warriors beat the Cavs in 5. He said and I quote, "Michael Jordan and LeBron James are the top 2."
PP hated Lebron because Lebron made more money than him before he even played one NBA game #InSideSource
Enrique Alvarez Yeah I'm aware of that... but LeBron's rival is still Paul Pierce. Bron ended that shit in 2012 though. 😂
if lebron had at least one other all star on his team at this time boston would be cake every time man took on a superteam all by himself how amazing
Rorschach 0007 fax
Fr tho.
lol peak athletic cavs lebron with a all-star sidekick is a ring period faxx lol.
MJ >> LeBron >> Shaq >> Kobe
Adam Lebron didn't carry a bum team full of average player to the finals? At the age of 23 none the less. Something Kobe or Mike never did.
J Boogie he faced terrible teams that year to get to the finals
It's amazing how explosive he was! He's still great now, but imagine if he had his old body with his current IQ!
Elias Lee His Iq higher rite now😞
@@chi-raqbd2586 alot high in 2020 too 😂😂😂
Wil u right
That’s a scary sight
That's a 2K MyPlayer in 2013
Watching these highlights convinces me that LeBron James was the best player in the league in 2009, not Kobe Bryant
Many analysts and players say otherwise.
myles hernandez kobe is an overrated shot chucker
myles hernandez there's a difference between a shot maker and a shot taker, Kobe was a shot taker. 😏
+myles hernandez Actually they didn't
The Chosen One-23 I can link you 3 videos about 7-10 min. In length (ranging from 2004-2010), that attests to why Kobe was generally regarded as the "universal best player in the world" if you'd like. Like I said, these are public statements made by analysts, coaches, and players.
Damn these were some sexy highlights
The pass of time define greatness. It's 2017 now and he still put great numbers on the court, I wonder when will LeBron decline. Such a crazy man.
#CiscoVibe #KillerFrost ikr dudes a tank!
2 years ago after your comment. Lebron was still a beast.
Slowest decline of any player in sports history.
2020 and he's the finals Mvp
2022 and he still killin it.
Watching NBA basketball is going to be so strange once he retires. It is always a good time watching LeBron play. Respect to one of the greatest players to ever play🏀🏆
Sad thing is with all these sensational pundits/shock jocks & LeBron haters, games like this are forgotten like they never happened.
MVP LeBron was a fucking GOAT
LeChampion #3Rings Wwww
He might be the greatest athlete this planet has ever seen I swear he's athleticism is unreal and scary he's like a demi god.
Fullmetal he said might
@@carterbilbro4615 might is way to far lets leave it at basketball the guy is nowhere anywhere close to being the greatest athlete its not even a conversation

James Marsden W
LeBron > MJ #fax
Rings, success, goat status: MJ
James Marsden the only two things i would say is Jordan was more Efficient at scoring and I'd say their IQ is equal
LakerHead those are team accomplishments, it clearly says skill set.
LeBron is always MVP LeBron, the media is just bored so they give the award to other bums
Falkon 77 MVP
is a regular season award and these past few years the Cavaliers have underperformed in terms of record. Also the years that LeBron won MVP he wasn't sitting games out
bjsw534 it doesn't matter if they underperformed, the key word is VALUABLE. His teams always won more than 52 games, when he doesn't play, the cavs are 4-14 and when he plays their the best team in the NBA besides GS. That's valuable, not triple doubles.
They're
yeah its a marketing thing there was an article about it. They had to stop giving it to mj and lebron to make the nba look more balanced then it really was
No this is bullshit. Lebron has not been snubbed for any MVPs.
Every year he didn't win it someone else more deserving won it(D Rose, KD, Curry)
Why do I feel like his ball handling was better back then compared to now lol
IAJ3 no its all about style off playing...now day lebron play on efisien play ..lebron is jenius basketball player when he play like this on now day age maybe he risk on injury...
IAJ3 he was playing pg and sg a lot back then so he practiced on his ball handling the most to perfect it but now he can play any position but mainly sf so he practices many different things
I haven't noticed any decline in his ball-handling, but he was quicker ten years ago and did the jump step more. He does pass a lot more, but that's because he's got better teammates. The more you pass, the more likely you'll get turnovers.
@@AndyZach Yeah I think it just seemed that way cuz he was faster/quicker
He played like A small forward version of Drose
Cleveland wasted 7 years of LeBron smh look at that fucking team he had to play with and in the first 35 games they go 29-6 man that team without bron would be 8-27 through 35 games
Jahbari Milligan right instead of 8 straight finals could've been 14 straight if they actually gave this dude some help.
IDC what nobody pre ring lebron was shitting on pre ring Jordan
Reido S u dumb as fuck. pre ring jordan ran a 4.35 40. hes the undisputed goat, and when his athleticism was gone and his knee was weak he changed his game and won 2 more titles. lebron cant touch it. go watch jordan highlights, its no contest
As far as how far he took teams yes‼️ individual player wise. No
Reido S Ya lebron fans always looking for new ways to make lebron look better than jordan.Whats next.Lebron eats cereal better than mj??Pathetic
Facts that's why I know LeBron haters are some young dudes that didn't see LeBron his first 7 years in the league they see MJ highlights hear their parents phantasize over MJ and assume he never lost a game or playoff round lol
Omar Lee THANK YOU.
LeBron GOAT SF
MJ GOAT SG
Tyron Wells Yes.
MJ >> LeBron >> SHaq >> Kobe
A true sentiment..... for those who fight with GOAT comparison
LeBron cooking paul Pierce nothing new here 🐐💯
Most unstoppable slasher ever, move over Jordan
LeMagic James nah bruh prime d.wade best slashing guard
Lando you’re crazy bro
Wade and Jordan
Fullmetal wade nor Jordan slashes more than bron , bron is the best rim attacker we’ve ever seen
@@kadeemhefner6442 you sound slow lol he is NOT a better slasher then dwade
I miss L-Train. Great career.
LeBron used to have this swagger back than, jeez.
Man... this dude is unstoppable
This year was lit. Cp3 had career year, d.wade was on some flash 2.0 shit, Kobe just got his 1st ring as the man dominating having his best finals, LeBron was a cyborg this year especially in playoffs avg 35-9-7.
Ballin Too 2006-2010 was the best frfr. it was really competitive. fuck it the 2000s was competitive. I wish MJ played in the 2000s and face actually Great Offensive Threats
Ballin Too Facts bro CP3 was on some GOAT shit that year
Ballin Too This is true. Lmao. Mike couldn't guard Magic, Bird, Nique(never even thought abutting guarding him, Bernard King, Ron Harper, Clyde.
Ballin Too facts those weak ass 2 guards
When is Lebron actually gonna start to decline? This man still has supreme athleticism even after being in the league for 15 years. GOAT asf lol
Still in year 17 2020 present time, way too much athleticism at 35 (knock on wood)
Feb 24, 2020 the dude still runs the show
2 years ago, this man was still a beast.
It’s crazy how quick he was when he was younger ... shit crazy
Damn lebron going triple teamed by Rondo, Garnet and 43, and he still gets every dunk and layup. Thats some serious ass shit damn
The transition of Lebron playing style should be the model for all this youngins.
These jerseys are sick. They should bring these back as a throwback again.
Lebron was the epitome of peak basketball insane speed, agility, strength, body control, iq and swagger. He is the model in all of 2k
Damn How do you stop somebody who’s that Big that strong and Moves like that damn he was a beast during this time period
Why it look like Bron was playing a college team 😂😂😂
Deshawn Lockett because he that good.
In the last four years, I've heard announcers say many times, "You can't let Lebron do that," usually about a layup or dunk. What they don't realize the whole team was trying to stop him and he beat one or two players so quickly, they didn't even get time to react.
Man they don't make em like this no more ... #MostAthleticPlayerInNBAHistory
@Hold Up Not really
@Hold Up Lmao the fact you base athleticism on a single attribute
@Hold Up Jordan had a vertical of 48 LeBron low 40's but LeBron 260 in weight to Jordan 216. LeBron full court sprint is faster (coast to coast), LeBron is stronger, LeBron is taller 6'8 to 6'6. LeBron has more reach, stamina wise fairly similar. Conditioning as a total though goes to LeBron, he gets more mileage evident in minutes played and the concentration of those minutes. Flexibility Jordan takes that can contort easier and great body control. LeBron powers through, often gets fouled and no calls. LeBron is bigger, stronger, faster and better conditioned.
@Hold Up Say Jordan and LeBron both perform a standing jump and Jordan out jumps LeBron. However, LeBron is a lot heavier this needs to be accounted for since if you were to add an extra 40 pounds to Jordan it will definitely negatively impact his performance.
Your athletic performance is greatly tied to your height, just look at NBA Players, Gymnasts, Jockeys, etc..
Jordan also played on the Bulls a well run franchised. He actually had help. Equivalent would be KD on Warriors he has a well built team around him that can actually support him.
I grew up watching Jordan and he is up there as one of the best for me but that being said I try to stay away from biases.
If you really think LeBron doesn't run a full court dash faster than Jordan you simply are fooling yourself. I hold them as equals, its stupid to compare the two in terms of GOATS but as far as an athletic stand point LeBron is simply bigger, faster, and stronger.
@Hold Up Lol you really saying they have similar muscle mass despite LeBron weighing around 50 pounds more. Just as strong really.... come on man don't do this.
I am all for Jordan being as agile and flexible.
I am going to stop debating from here on out, seems like you have rose tinted glasses on my friend. Enjoy best of luck
Expect Something like this during Opening Night
Wolf Haley yup
Wolf Haley I need Boston vs Cavs in the eastern conference finals. It should be a good series LeBron is gonna do his thing but I see it being a close series even though some people have the Cavs in 6 and many say 5. If Thomas isn't 100 percent I could see Boston going to the finals especially if Brown and even Tatum step up next year.
FJO 9 brown and tatum step up? nobody steps up as a rookie it just doesnt happen and as of rn brown is just hype he needs a few more years
Sure, but KLove, DRose and IT can guard... no one. It's gonna be a scoring fest.
MJ >> LeBron >> Shaq >> Kobe
Man how the hell can anyone witness what this freak of nature has been doing on a basketball floor for almost 20 years and be hating. This is legendary
Damn man, can you imagine if lebron would've had a second star to run with his first 7 years in the league. Greatest all around basketball player to ever grace the NBA
damn bruh look at how quick this mans first step was. if only he knew then what he knows now
This man is the best I’ve ever seen
KING...Past,Present,Future!!!
this lebron was too explosive. unguardable at that size
I miss this Lebron. Look how lean and quick he was. This was the Lebron that dropped 25 straight points on the Pistons and averaged 38 ppg against the Magic. He bulked up when he went to Miami cause he had to play PF at times and lost a bit of his speed and quickness... which made him easier to defend and block around the rim.... even though he might've been a more complete player with the Heat....
If he had a fellow all star he would've made the Finals in '09 and '10
He’s gonna be on a mission this year
King Wani and failed lol
X02Overdose Nate Robinson sucks.
sad that ppl honestly think kobe is better smh
DB89 L
Kobe wouldve been swept lol
Jay_Are it's sad that u think it's sad that people think Kobe is better. LeBron fans need to stop overrating LeBron and underrating Kobe.
Swipa the Fox that's not true Kobe with kyrie is deadly. Kobe didn't get swept vs Celtics in 08. He had no Bynum, Odom was injured. All he has was pau. Lost 4-2. Against rondo, Ray allen, tony allen,Paul pierce, young perk and kg. I recall LeBron shooting under 40% everything he seen them before they got old in 2012. Humble urself and drop underratting Kobe. LeBron don't face big men and when he does? He loses they protect the paint
Ballin Too Kobe couldn't play with a guy like Kyrie. He'd make kyrie into a 15ppg guy
Prime Lebron in Cleveland and Miami is like the 2k my player you make with insane speed, athleticism, and muscle mass
this was peak Lebron, don't matter if he didn't get a ring yet this was the most dominant individual player in the league (pre miami days) by far
I love these announcers they're so hyped lol
Lebron has always been the best player on the court game in and game out its truly incredible to have witnessed his greatness throughout the years
IDC what anyone says, had LeBron had soem good ass teammates during his pre-2010 years, he would've had more than Jordan, nuff said.
Lebron > kobe
Period
Mohamed Momo Kobe fans only use "rings" as an excuse because they know LeBron is better than him in every statistical category. Also more MVPs and Finals MVP.
Yup. Kobe is great, but LeBron is better.
KD > LeBum
Jordan, I'd go farther than that. Since at least 2008
I thought I was crazy because for a second I thought Lebron was on the Lakers!!
👀👀
I always say young Lebron at 225 was the most unstoppable player ever
Lebron was never documented at lower than 230, maybe before his senior year in high school that's true but since his senior season in high school he's always been 240-250, maybe 260 in Miami.
Back when the Cavs played D.
Wolves bandwagon fan since 1998 The 2009 Cleveland Cavaliers were ranked 3rd in defensive efficiency.
Zakariya Abdul-Alim they play defense yet nobody besides LeBron are good in passing and scoring lmao bunch of Scrubs
lol and were mediocre/trash on offense except lebron smh lmfaoooooo...........both those team trash tbh........best team lebron played on is 2013 heat pure faxx lol.
Zakariya Abdul-Alim bc mike brown is a good coach who can establish a defense, tyron lue is a trash!
That lebron is amazing
Kyrie gonna regret requesting that trade after the opening game kekekeke
BEAST
GOAT. Simple!
Imagine thinking lebron was suppose to beat the Celtics and lakers with these dudes lmao
Man I miss these days
That is the definition of 99 overall player
Hell yess the greatest!
This is peak LeBron. 6'8 Westbrook literally
Ballin Too correction: 6'8 westbrook w/ extremely high bball iq
More explosive? Faster? Nah
"5 inches shorter" = EXACTLY. This Lebron is at least as fast and as explosive as russ while being 6'8 and 255 lbs.
6'8" derrick rose actually.. they both had the circus type layups and dunk landings
The Wallstar lebron was way faster and more expensive than Westbrook.
Lebron was fuckin fast and explosive asf!!!!
is this the year that people wants to see kobe vs lebron in finals?
It's fun watching this from over 8 years ago. You can really see Lebron's quickness. Everyone else looks a step slower.
I want that CAVS jersey authentic so bad!
missed that time when all and everyone witnessed Lebron show
Soon as he said the ball slip out your had my phone slipped out my hand 🤣🤣
The L train 🚂
Man he is the GOAT real talk then Jordan
This LeBron looks unstoppable , he was so quick then, his athletism was very high.
Still is but he ain't crossing like this anymore. He shoots more.
He abused all if them! KG talkin that crazy shit that they broke Bron. He went and got him a squad and said run it back! Celtics been in their feelings ever since. Bron was killin Pierce...its like being on the court and a group is running the court while you playin with mediocre dudes but still killin. You pick some dudes who can play an have skill and all of a sudden the bullies of the court dont want no problems.
I hope this is how the Season Opener of 2017-2018 looks against kyLie
He's my GOAT period
I mean it’s weird LeBron used to be smooth but somehow he lost all his smoothness.
He’s still great but just a bit mechanical.
Only true Warriors fans will remember the time Lebron was on the '08-09 Warriors with Varejao
This is more of LBJ supreme prime... the speed the attacks the defends the jump the energetic.... then when u look at Daniel Gibson.. is remind me of him and Kyrie Irving similar...but of cos Kyrie Irving got better handling ball and rims attack.. and they both have the sharp shooting 3s
Dan Daniel Gibson is a bum lol. Not even comparable to Kyrie.
Le Goat
this is going to be a great year for the New Era Goat!
He looks damn good in a Lakers uniform
That jersey is super clean
3:36 wasn’t even touched lol
Man everyone on the at cabs team was either out the league or on the end of the bench by the end of 2012
LeGoat was in his prime since he was born 💯
i never knew lebron played for the warriors! amazing!!!
Best Athletic Version Of Lebron 2009
Lebron vs the Big 3 Celtics..... He destroyed them single handedly 🤣🤣🤣
Lebron has been the best player in the league since 08, that’s insane.
Great jersey
Dude was only 24/25 in this.. the age Kyrie is now. Holy Shit.
Cuz was beasty as hell bruh...
my lord !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lebron the goat !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
More 2009 LeBron! :D
These uniforms 🔥
amazing player
Best lebron idol
Im watching this high. These announcers killing me 😂😂🤦🏾♂️
Mike never played on lebrons level lmao
Bron had no space and attacked the rim and he still scored
4:56 4-pt shot, he just that good
LeBron locked Pierce up this game too.
