As somebody born in the 90's I honestly can't even imagine the Nba without LeBron he's been in the Nba for as long as I can remember.....
Facts
I was born in 90, and I can't even imagine that.
Yeah lebron is still playing but from 2009-2018 he was in the finals almost every year he's not what he used to be
Thats why it will be easy to miss him. Its hard to miss someone who just doesnt retire already. Like Brett Favre
Ima 05 baby I can’t stand the game now ion know nobody I used to know everybody
I LOVE SEEING THE TWO OF YOU IN THIS ATMOSPHERE!!!
Wtf?
We will miss LBJ but espn will miss him more.
They will move forward just like they have when all the other greats retired lol
Facts 😂😂😂
@@liveesunflower people are crazy lol
😂😂😂
Man relax lol
NBA will never be the same without him
Yes your correct. It be even better when the bum retired😊
Thank god
@@Heatpad.Murray1you know that's not true at all
@@Heatpad.Murray1you definitely white lol
@@QuavoGotFameWHAT??? Here’s another race baiter making excuses. People can’t even have an opinion without being offended of their race feeling inferior.
Even the haters will miss him when he is not in the NBA anymore, he has not cheated the game, he has committed himself to his craft and he is so much more off the court. LBJ is a beast
I won’t
"He committed himself to the craft". Bro has played 30% of his career playing recognizable defense..... yall are blinded by PPG...
Once he's gone, his annoying fan base will wither out. The NBA will be great again
@@zureailol u don’t know ball begone
@@zureaitelling the truth! bronsexuals are bunch of pathetic whiners
😂😂😂 i feel Steph A when he says he’s gotta be in shape when compared to his other hosts.
Unpopular opinion. Lebrons stint with the lakers is the most impressive. I thought his game was going to drastically decline. He ‘a still giving us 27-7-7
With ease
Uhhhhhhhhh.... no. It's impressive. Like the rest of his career. But second stint Cleveland LeBron is a different beast
@@ThomasTheTankEngine22he wasn’t even that old with cleaved though compared to lakets
It's a valid argument for sure, though I'd still go with his 1st stint in Cleveland. Reason being...what he did from 18 ,& early 20's in terms of leadership, I Q , & taking THAT 2006/7 roster to the NBA finals was simply AMAZING. Again...your " Lakers" take holds weight, especially considering his age. It's hard to choose simply because his whole career he's played at such a high level.
@@AlexM-uq3cm I understand that. And while him being as old as he is, and playing as good as he is, is indeed impressive to me. I don't see that same level of dominance that I saw in 2018.
Love you unc shay shay stay strong brotha 💪💪💪💪 you got this
The “Lebron James” kid meme is that dude’s greatest gift
The duo I never knew I needed. Salute Kings 💪🏾
The LeBron-Jordan debate between these two is going to be awesome to watch! Get the popcorn ready! 😎
I’m so sick of that stupid debate 🤦♂️
They already had the debate mate, just watch it
Stephen A will at least say he has Lebron at number 2 even though he says Jordan is better. Skip will say he’s barely top 10 😂
Stephen only has LeBron as number 2 to shut Shannon up even though it doesn't work. In reality LeBron is 3rd or 4th. It's hard to put LeBron above Kareem or Kobe win you look at all of his losses with an underwhelming 4 rings rings in 20 years.
@@FlickSwitchGospeak for yourself. Lebron is the goat to Many fans, players, HOFers, analyst etc..he is comfortably ahead of Kobe for sure.
I love what SAS said to Unc. Essentially you are motivating him just by being in his presence. Iron sharpens …
He’s a legend and he will be missed and mostly unforgettable
hard to miss someone who just doesnt retire already.
Yeah, specially when he flops
We gone miss you Goat 😢
Goat?
yes goat.. stop u wasnt even alive when jordan was playing prob@@ajp5616
@@ajp5616 Greatest Of All Time!!

Love it 🔥
Uncle I see how you moving! 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
What does that even mean 😂
@@ajp5616 Huh that he have his own show! I forget you have to dumb it down for the ones who wear helmets! 🤣🤣🤣 My bad
😂😂😂😂 "I ain't gon' let you down" 😂😂😂
Stephen A shoes lit
Wish I had those OMG
Lebrons minimum expectation was 1st ballot and top 10...minimum
He outlived the hype
"But Nobody thought he would be THIS good"
"Thats why i have him #2"
😂😅
Make it make sense lmao
Lmfaooooo thank you
Makes perfect sense
When you put it that way it's hysterical. However, people really don't understand what it takes to be top 2 in the history of the world in any sport. People act like he's trying to destroy Brons legacy by saying #2.
@@matthewsdonnelly ppl acted like it was BLASPHEMY to have jordan #2 and Bron #1
Its been ridiculous lol
We gonna miss Lebron only reading the first page of a book.
Outta line 🤧
Or him tryna remember lyrics of songs
If he reads that lol
Even the people that Dislike lebron will miss him in some sort of way because that person they disliked won’t be easily replaced by another. Sure they could say Harden, Kyrie or KD but it won’t be to the same level.
No we won’t. He’s everything wrong with today’s nba
@@CantGuardTeeyou are delusional nba changing has nothing to do with lebron
@@colbyleon131flopping, crying, whining, jumping from super team to super team when things get tough, arrogant and narcissistic and egotistical.
@@CantGuardTee Don’t speak for everyone you airhead. Who even are you? 😂😂 Go cry some more
not the same level of flopping and cheating, that's for sure!
Shannon will miss him the most.
But that wont stop him bringing him up everyday for the next 10-years.
Shannon and SA merging well together.
It’s sad to think that we might not have a similar player in generations to come.
Though I don't love Lebron's " decision", or the way he went about announcing it, as a fan I have a much different perspective on it as time has passed. Bron was NOT blessed with a highly regarded front office in terms of pairing him with major pieces. Even with that reality, he made Cleveland a marquee franchise,& a perennial Finals contender. He elevated his teammates, made them better,& gave 100% night in/ night out. Btw...for you " KOBE'S BETTER THAN BRON FANS", I'd vehemently argue that a 22 y.o. Kobe does NOT lead that same Cavs roster to the NBA Finals in 2007. Anyways...back to the " decision"; Bron obviously felt that the Cavs GM wasn't going to add the necessary pieces to get the team over the top. I'd also argue that had he stayed in Cleveland,& gotten better free agents ( pre Kyree & Love) that he'd still be scrutinized for that too so he was in a no win situation either way.
We’ll never know because Kobe was in the harder conference when he was in leading his team and lebron was the easier eastern conference it wasn’t a cake walk back then like it became later but it wasn’t the west if we switch them lebron ain’t coming out west either bro lol
Live on television, Lebron stabbed his own hometown fans in the back. That’s what made it seem so wrong. A lot of fans thought that he was going to stay with his hometown team forever. They didn’t expect nor did they deserve to be treated that way. He didn’t have to be so dramatic about it. The fact that he made that decision live on tv when many Cavs fans thought he’d be using that platform to announce his return to Cleveland is EXACTLY what made it so wrong and shocking to the people that paid to support him and watch him play every night. Whether or not he was right to leave Cleveland isn’t the problem. The problem was HOW he chose to do it
I’m not saying that Lebron’s a bad guy though. I just think that “the decision” was a mistake. He seems like a good dude. The decision is the only problem that I have with Lebron (other than the fact that he seems to think that he’s better than Jordan)
@@ssohpkpckit doesn’t matter Kobe’s “give me the ball and get out of the way” play style does not work on that trash Cleveland team, Kobe himself said that play style never works, he’s not getting deep with that Cleveland roster let alone finals
He didn't make them better 🤦♂️🤦♂️in fact, stats are very simple, if you look at the stats, you will see that he never made his teammates better. He just joined a teams to play with teammates who were ALREADY great basketball players. From 2012 to 2014 Wade was worse than he was before. Same about Chris Bosh, before Miami, he was averaging 27 points per game at his best, in Miami he averaged 18-19. He never made Kyrie better, he was great player EVEN SINCE HIS ROOKIE SEASON. Kevin Love averaged in 2013 and 2014 27 points per game and when Lebron came in Cleavlend, he was completely different player. Look at AD right now when he is in his absolute prime and look at him at 22, 23, 24 years of age... He was better player for Pelicans than he ia right now for Lakers in his best years. So I really don't know what are you talking about. Lebron is great player, but stop it, he never made anyone around him better.
That day cant come soon enough
MJ’s the GOAT. Lebron’s the next best thing though. I hadn’t thought about it much, but I probably will miss watching him play in the playoffs whenever he decides to retire
i love these 2 lmao
Shannon and Stephen a dwade and Lebron 🤣🤣💎💎🔥🔥
Ima be Totally honest with y’all I won’t miss him not one bit I’m ready for a real star WEMBY ITS TIME
Bet you Wemby tears that one those fragile ACL’s this season. That’s a “Real Star” for ya 😂
I think number 2 is the most accurate Lebron ranking, after NBA and ABA merger Jordan has the most FMVP. Meaning he won most title as the best player. But Lebron's 4 FMVP is right behind him. Magic, Duncan and Shaq all had 3.
How many times you do it as the best player is what matters the most.
I agree
luckily we dnt care what you think. Especially if its bs like that
Ad was the best player in 2020
But was indeed the best player during the 6 losses
Fmvp doesn't matter much anyone can get it Its about the rings
@@jose.g2753 fmvp absolutely matters unless it's a bogus situation like 2015 with Iggy
@@jose.g2753yup, Jordan has most rings as starting player after NBA ABA merger as well.
It’s true. I dread the last game of his career. I may shed a few thug tears 😢
Honestly whats more sad than lebron retiring is his fans begging us to miss him, its never enough for these idiots unless you treat him like the second coming of christ, i bet you anything no one was making segments like this back in the day about magic and bird and Jordan begging us to miss them.
Who’s begging are y’all weird? 💀
🐐 James never left Cleveland! Lakers got what’s left in the tank ….
I prefer to watch these two here over first take!!
I agree with SA on his take on LeBron
FACTSSS
espn will miss him more
Spoke nothing but facts about AD and it’s such a shame
It lets you put in perspective who cares more about the game.
We’ll get over it.
I won’t miss em I want others to win and shine but he’ll be appreciated more most definitely
From the South Side of Chicago, I fu**s witchall.
BLESSINGS
These 2 understand each other…
That’s y it boring opposites attract
Will not miss any of LeBron's drama, excuses, team hopping and stacking, etc. Will be VERY glad when he's finally gone.
legoat
Stephen A. finally got it right.
Nah im tired of the queens antics. But most importantly, his fan base will wither out and thats the best thing that could happen to the league
Lbj a OG fasho
Oh please
Uncle Shay and Stephen A. Will have LeBron on the show when he retires and that show is gonna be epic. I can't wait for LeBron to tell his story shut up the haters not on the Goat debate. But on the things he achieved on the court and off.
The game will move on!
We will not miss him the media force him upon us wtf 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I won't miss LeBron. I was glued to certain NBA superstars in the past, but the NBA and media personalities show too much favoritism towards him. Not only that, his egotistical manner of a self-proclaimed status is nauseating.
so true, ppl are blind not to see that, leflop is the reason why this game is not as spiritual as be4
I Won’t !
No we won't, speak for urself Stephen A
Lol he is😂
Coming outta high school is under rated…
If theres no more super team stacking, flopping, complaining, media divaing. Then no.
Name a way lebron has not cheated the game would be easier than explaining all the way he has. Lebron would be 2/10 in finals if 2016 and 2020 the other teams weren’t injured to two starters. It’s really weird to say lebron is more than great. Lerbon isn’t the best at anything so how can he be anywhere close to a goat he aint
No we're not
Lmfao
No many of us aren't
"Not one not two not three not four not five" but infinite seasons of sweet relief. Well, except it seems his son is in even if he isn't in the same caliber
Shannon Sharpe still live in LA? I thought he moved once he got to ESPN
I’m just waiting on the Lebron James interview
speak for yourself lmao 😂💯 ain’t finna miss this diva
So why comment
The GOAT
Go On Another Team
Shay u have to put this point in the argument Is that Mike didn't win until all of the greats of his time left the game please make people understand that point
Why would he say something that would be factually incorrect? Magic, Bird, Isiah, Barkley, Moses, Karl, & Hakeem we’re all active when Jordan won. The only 2 greats that were gone from the game were Kareem & Dr J.
The media will still talk about him every week after he retires. Dw. xD
NBA be better when he's gone
Only people gonna miss lerun it’s he’s fans if u gotta favorite basketball team u gonna be ok
Huh?
How you edit your comment and still got grammatical errors back to back 😂 "it's he's fans"
@@alexgarza6858 if u gotta a team u not gonna miss one player
When Kobe retired in 2016, even the most die hard Celtics fans and haters haters missed watching him play he’s an all time great. Believe me bruh, when an all time great plays for 20+ years people are gonna miss him whether or not people have their own teams especially against Lebron. Be fr💀
Dude didn't mean shhh2me
We’ll miss him when he’s gone but it’s time for that chapter to come to an end.
Who tf are you
Yea I’ll stop playing too if I avg 29-8-7 50%fg… it’s time 🤦♂️🗣️🗣️🗣️
@@archertsg4726Right lol Bro was averaging 30 in season 20 until he hurt his ankle but it’s time to retire lmao
@@jamaalbethea_even if his stats dipped and he could only play 20mins a game I still don't think he would retire. Only way I see him retiring is if his body is telling him no more or his wife
@@kamikazehound3243 I agree. He’s still too good.
Look how we miss Michael, Kobe, Allan, Dirk, Shaquille, Dwayne... we gonna miss LeBron.
Anthony ain't want it like how the real ones do.
*you knew every players last name reading that without ANY HELP*
Who’s Allan? Allen Iverson?
No one will miss Lbj more than skip when he retires Skip will be criticizing his off court endeavors lol😅
I love watching Lebron play he loves the game still after 20 years of grinding
I genuinely will not miss him. He's played long enough
Don’t comment you mad he still playing
@jaidenknight2358 nah I'm chilling, couldn't care less either way
Basketball will actually be better off without him.He and his people have completely ruined nba media coverage
Not going to miss lebron..a lot of people will be glad when he is finally retired
I would if ESPN didn't talk about him 4 topics for two decades at the cost of missing out on everything else that was amazing during that era. Or the mountain of excuses that get made any time he doesn't win.
I'm so ready to be done with Lebron. Won't miss him.
same here!
Life moves on. Why would we miss him when the game will continue with new stars?
Shut up
I still don't understand how ppl really think bron is better than kobe
Where is Kobe better than lebron at?
@@blixkyboydee8624nothing
I honestly don’t understand how people have Kobe in the top 5
@@BoskoShabazz Kobe is top 10 it’s Micheal lebron and Kareem or if people wanna put lebron first Micheal second it’s either or it don’t matter
Mate it’s simply because lebron has more individual accolades and higher production across the board in both the regular season and playoffs. I’m with you in liking kobe more (he’ll always be my favorite player player ever and basketball idol) I prefer Kobe’s game as well, but I can’t really make an object case outside of feelings that would put Kobe above lebron. So that’s why most people in the media have lebron ahead of Kobe
LEBRON THE GOAT
As someone who enjoys parity and dislikes super teams stacking stars I won't miss him. Lebron went to 10 finals.. I've seen enough.
no, were not gon miss him, were gon LAUGH about him, LEFLOP! 😂
More successful than you 🤡
🤦♂️🤦♂️
He will not be missed
Why?
Not Really 🤷🏽♂️
😂😂😂 no we wont...
They game will not miss LBJ ...
When he gets swept next year and retires
Really makes me wonder who got next when LeBron is done in terms of being face of the league?
This upcoming season might give us that answer. Might be between Giannis and Jokic
Maybe wembenyama if he has a good rookie season
Why would I miss lebum. He didn’t do anything
LBJ will be missed definitely!
I won't miss him. He's been shadowing better more talented players for years. I can't wait for you guys to quit talking about him. It's annoying. The LeBron narrative been getting pushed so hard because Nike is power and they wanted it pushed. It's good for business I get it. I'm ready to pay attention to everyone else besides LeBron
Yeah...
i cant wait for him to call it quits.
tbh? im tired of him and the media around him.
He right about AD
Didn't Lebron get swept again last year for a third time in his career?
By the best team all season, in year 20 on 1 leg, while he was the best on his team. He did go against the what should have been 3 time mvp in a row.
Lebron should be the 3rd best player on a championship now… not #1
@@moneymoney3235if he did win 3 that would be racist tho so...
And ? 10 finals appearances and he started the season 2-11 just to lose in the western conference to the later Champs and 2 time mvp … in year 20… what’s your point ?
Im not. And its partially their fault for the constant media about him.
Nah, lol Bron was ok but he wasn’t winning like that.
Skip will miss bron more than anyone
Ima miss that man I swear I am
Biggest hype and actually outperformed the hype. LeBron is up there with the NBA Gods.
I will not miss him when he's gone saying he's number is ridiculous and baseless it would be hard to even logically call him top 10 and he's literally done nothing socially stop the lies
