KG energy is off the charts 😂
ALWAYS HAS BEEN OFF THE CHART😂
“Bron not top 5 right now!”
“If you had to pick one player to win, who?”
“BRON” 😂
😂
yep bron and Adam always have a shot at winning, arguably best duo in NBA history
@@bobbyd1632😂 Damn Why Adam Aint Help Last Year In The WCF We Sholl Needed It. Gets Some Help Kid Hate Is A Bad Drug For You Teeth!
@@PMKruthe refs could only do so much
YEAH THAT WAS CRAZY TO SAY...LOL
Rondo is lowkey a legend
Nothing lowkey about it if you know ball
He helped the Celtics & Lakers get their 17th Banners he’s a legend fasho!
Highkey*
Straight up legend
Lowkey? Lmao
Salute to Rondo! We don’t talk about him enough. He helped the Celtics get ring number 17 and helped my Lakers get ring number 17. Salute!!! Bron top 5 for sure to me.
#NBARigged #BoycottNBA 😂😂😂 NBA just announce that they will help the Fake Inseason tournament winners to be the 7th seed next year playoffs. So even Lakers missing the playoffs or with losing records 22-60 records, Lakers would still be the 7th seed next year 😂😂😂. It's too obvious already since 2020 Bubble ring that NBA helping Lebron and now this another Fake tournament and next year Leflop/Lakers will be automatically the 7th seed for next year playoffs as the benefits of winning this fake tournament. The desperation of helping Lelfop to be in the playoffs. 2020 Fake Bubble ring, 2021 1st round exit, 2022 missed playoffs, 2023 WCF swept and 2024 fake tournament as definitely Lakers is not winning a real ring anything thats why NBA helping queen leflop.
NBA is pushing a self-destruction. NBA fans might stop watching NBA games soon.
Leflop/NBA knows that once Leflop die he will be forgotten easily and real NBA fans will still keep MJ Kobe as the GOATS.

I like Rhondo over CP3
bron is definitely top 5 nba player of all time
@@julianpratt205 we are talking about right now buddy. Everyone already knows he's Top 2 and not 2 all time..
Thats crazy tbh. Playing for 2 of the biggest franchises and winning for them.
Just glad to see Rachel Nichols back in media with her own show.👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I like her style and approach to get conversations going.
She’s always been very good. I like her hair she’s rockin
Lmaoo KG HILARIOUS "cupcake"
I use to put Luka and Tatum ahead of Bron too but I realized that those guys are more exciting to watch right now more than Bron because they’re young and energetic. When it’s time to win like rondo said, Bron does his thing.
luka over bron but i doubt tatum
Wat happened in the WCF LAST YEAR?
lmao exciting and WINNING. Lakers are in the toilet this year
Facts, I finally had KD over lebron before the season but after their matchups I realized lebron still better which is crazy
@@isiah675and luka was in the toilet last year and lebron made it to WCF with a bad foot. And Boston is stacked af
Rondo speaking facts
lol you can tell Rondo was keeping himself from really getting into a arguement about it
Rondo's point is clear-being outside the top 5 NBA players currently and winning the In Season tournament, along with earning the MVP over the entire league during the tournament, is a significant feat. Boogie Cousins underscored this by choosing LeBron as the player he'd trust to win a crucial one-game situation, emphasizing LeBron's current prowess over past performances. This adds weight to Rondo's argument about the current impact and influence of Lebron in the league. 🏀💯
To be real with you nobody cares about the tournament 💯 it’s not a championship…that tournament is like AAU tournament 💯 it’s one game not best out of 7..one game is easy to win for any team…best out of 7 is a chess game
I'll put LeBron over Tatum and embiid. Jokic, Giannis, lukA, LeBron, and then embedded.
@@jsongz201cap!🧢 … u think they didn’t want to win that tourney just as much as Bron did. No it’s not the NBA Finals but people wanted that title. FIRST to claim trophy at that… Lasting a series is hard for Bron to do up against say a Denver, but if AD can tap into another mode they can compete with anybody even at brons old age. It’s just hard to have solid production with the no Bron minutes a lot of times and AD just doesn’t get the job done far too often
Lebron been that dude, its an insult to even consider that an in-season tournament or 7 games changes anything positively or negatively.
have u been watching embid he probably is playing the best in the league only other in consideration is joker@@donaldpowell6725
Top 5 should also include the ability to be consistent in the Playoffs. Luka doesn't control tempo on defense, Tatum is a coin toss past 2nd round, Embiid has consistently choked. Giannis has a ring, Joker, and Bron too, they're 123 imo.
Not putting Steph in the top 5 currently is also insane. The rather have Embiid who has been a chocker and Tatum who hasn’t been able to flip the switch when the moment needs it.
at the end of the season, you can include playoffs.
They asking about this seasons so why are you talking about playoffs? Plus talking about defence when you need Kuzma to push lebron to defend. The top5 of this seasons are does mention by Paul. Put Lebron on Luka today and see his numbers. He will be cooking him like a mf with smile on his face
@@piotrsie5465AND THE DON WILL LOOSE THE GAME. WE DEFINITELY KNOW LUKA DOES NOT PLAY DEFENSE. SO
@@alejandroserrano7755I agree
KG giving LeBron his respect and I salute KG for keeping it real... 😎👍🏽
Not once in LeBron’s NBA career was he not Top 5.
aside from 2004, 2005, 2019, 2021, 2022, 2023, and now 2024 so yeah other than those 7 seasons (being 33% of Brons career) he's been top 5 for sure
@@bobbyd1632😂😂😂
@@lamarlashley8738 Ikr thinking Bron was top 5 every season is crazy I agree I almost shared laugh emojis too, but hey Bron’s been top 5 for 66% of his long career that’s pretty impressive
@@bobbyd16322019 he was on track to be MVP before he got hurt.
He’s not even top 10 right now
What are we even talking about this man is 40 putting up full minutes and crazy numbers. The only two players better, having more of an individual impact on the team right now, are Jokic & Giannis. Lakers got 14 wins, Celtics have all top tier players and luka has kyrie. AD hasn’t been consistent like that, but bron still put that team on his back. He’s #3 rn fs on everything
Ad is leading the league in 2 categories. what are you talking about he's averaging 24/13/3
I just hope yall keep this same energy. If he's a top 3 player in the league, then don't give him the excuse of being too old when he loses in the playoffs like last year
@@MikeBNumba6oh man you know excuses will roll. That fake torn tendon will start popping up everywhere!
Shai doesn't exist?? Embiid doesn't exist? Embiid is averaging 34/12/7 (rounded the .6/7's) lmao.
Yea if you spent a mil on your body a year you’ll play too at 40 even 45 lol
Lmao pierce really said “dong-kich, jannis”
Boy was drunk as shit 😂
What Rhondo said went right over heads. He said when it’s time to turn it on, Bron you can count on him turning it on…when it’s time to win, he wins. Those other guys play well during the season and put up all the numbers but win it’s time to get your team a Win, they fall short. Top 5 should be based on a combination of reg season and playoffs.
should only matter in playoffs. You think lebron and steph care about winning 60 games ever again?
Real talk though, I wouldn't pick any superstar that hasn't won a ring over Lebron right now.
That means I take Lebron over Embid, I take Lebron over Tatum, I take Lebron over Luka, I take Lebron over SGA.
He's top 5 in the NBA right now; along with Jokic, Giannis, and Steph those guys are locks for my top 5 in the NBA today.
great take
Facts I don’t see how people don’t get this 🤣
@@oo70mar i think that's because the 5th spot could be flexible to em
💯
Yea and I still won’t put any of those players over Bron, especially Curry and Giannis! Skill wise, I don’t see where Curry and Giannis could top Bron because Bron has carried more than they ever did.
Rondo has the highest basketball IQ out of all these guys. I side with his choice. And of course not surprised that Paul Pierce would say no. Feel like he's been envious of LeBron for the better part of two decades now
Embid literally shoots 12-20 free throws a night and Bron it’s lucky if he can get a game with 10+ freethrows.
Still better than Lebron
@@collllllll lemme know when he makes a finals in his career he lost to trae young
@@collllllllnot in the playoffs lmao
Embiid is another thirsty scorer. He lives at the free throw line
Then that's the point for Embid.
BRON IS #1 OF ALL TIME!! NO ONE COMES CLOSE!!! ❤ 🏀 🏀 🐐
YESSSSS HONEY YESSSSS 🎉
Give me a break. Jordan is at least right there with him. Jordan is 1a, Lebron is 1b for me ( maybe reverse order aswell, I'm not an expert). Although, if Lebron is winning the west without major help (aka Donovan Mitchel, Lavine is not major help), I'm gonna give the 1a to Lebron.
Lebron had to demonstrate what is being asked of nba players. To take charges, and score big, dominate defensively is everything.
Pierce be ALL in his feelings 😂😂😂😂
I disagree that Bron didn’t have this last season … Bron is so great that we quickly forget what work he puts in because we be so captured by the moment. Last season before Brons foot injury, on his road to the scoring title he was BALLIN! just like this… Now you give him a early season goal to be the first to attach his name to the in season tourney, and you get to see how good he is… Bron is definitely still a beast! He’s just old and he gets tired way quicker than when he was younger…it’s a stamina issue for Bron. You often see him gasping for air, or signaling to come out the game. But when he got a goal (short burst goal) he can get the job done! … look what he did in game 4 vs Denver. He went for 40! …Bron skill is still there, it’s solely about him getting too tired and that’s just cuz he’s old with all that mileage on his body!
Only work he did was leaving cavs and getting chips
One of the biggest travesties in the way lebron is critiqued is that for some reason as humans and the media, we’ve just randomly decided that he’s not allowed to get injured. Like it just doesn’t matter for him. Like MJ missed almost an entire year with his foot. Bron plays through that so we just don’t consider it an injury. Everyone else in the league gets the “well he wasn’t healthy” card except bron. Why did jordan lose to the magic embarrassingly in the 2nd rd “oh he had baseball legs”, what does that even mean??? Bron literally had an injury to his foot and carried his team past the more talented griz, past the def champs to the WCF where if we had to pick another team to win it all after Denver it’s surely the lakers! Gimme a break
@@jsongz201Thats a funny way to say "dominated the league and won a championship with every team he played for"
@@yusuf8938 yes .. but absolutely all teams outside of the 2003-2009 years were leGMed and transformed into big 3s teams. Only Durant is a bigger stacker than him. So winning expectations come with the territory when you stack 2 all stars alongside and forcing trades to make the team good NOW.
I can’t put Luka above Bron…. Even Tatum is pushing it to an extent. Lebron offers more than just PPG
Luka is averaging 32 8 and 8 wtf you mean just ppg 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️😂
@@Zayk74u And he gives up just as much though..
@@papadiom9260 Not even close bro, why even speak when you gonna say some legit ignorant shit?
lol
What about TURNOVERSand FREE THROWS?
Boogie should still be in the league!!
Faxts!
Why? So he can get injured.
nope, not cause he’s trash because boogie is a beast but he just can’t stay healthy. Dude got injured during practice
Damn shame he isn’t
nah boogie washed and
Salute to Demarcus Cousins rocking the #HBCU Alabama State Hoodie.
Damn KG a Vice Lord 😂
😂😂 a real rich one too
So nobody caught that Boogie named 4 players ahead of Bron, but not a 5th player. Then he puts Bron at 6.
All I know is in a winner take all situation…I’m going with Bron!!! That’s a clutch gene within itself
I’ve joker? Really? Who stopping joker? And he don’t get blocks or runs full speed and still does everything
@@jsongz201Well Joker is definitely in the conversation. As well as Steph and KD.
hell yeah man Bron's got Adam on his team so he's always got a chance
@@bobbyd1632then why didn't he win last year Bobby???
@@Teebagzzz because even with Adam on his knees for Bron, a great team playing great team ball led by a player who's clearly better than Bron right now will win over a team led by a "Bron centric" system with a great player in AD and good-great player in Bron
KG got HEATED! I thought he was gonna fight Paul.
That’s how he talk 😂
He wasn't heated at all.
Tired of seeing his boy always be a hater LOL
I loved this whole video from KG and the truth gettin after it to rondo and boogie man that’s class to watch honestly
Im not even a Bron fan, but to see what Bron is doing this season... at his age, with the roster he has.. HE IS TOP 5. No discussion or debate is needed.
kevin SPEAKING FACTS. Bron still out there hooping, while Paul eatin saying embidd and luka, Tatum LOL
demarcus is my kings hero, but he deff mad lebron got rid of him during that bubble championship team
Tatum and Embiid are better than bron rn , they need to have that 1v1 tournament bron ain’t stoppin either one of them
@@krayyans you must be high asl. Lebron walks tatum every year, tatum is lucky bron left the east. and we all know embiid isn't making it past the second round even with bron out the east. stop it.
Big Cuz salty 🤦🏾♂️
lebron got rid of him or the lakers did cuz he was injured? cmon now
pierce is 46
The man just won MVP of the first NBA cup EVER. Why aren't those other top 5 not in it.
You can't be serious😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@Trablaz lebron fans have no shame
shame? those players played the same tourny and now its a problem when bron wins it lmao. you mfs need to get off yalls knees. its sickening now. @@eddardstark6179
Because they were not going for it? That's what the haters will say lol. Giannis and Tatum both got beaten by the same team that Lebron and the Lakers won against, but they are better than Lebron? Crazy. And the thing is, both teams, Bucks and Celtics, are better on paper than the Lakers and they had to go through the same team to win the IST. There is no ifs or buts, if Bucks won it or Celtics won it, folks would be singing Giannis's and Tatum's praise, but not Bron. The hate is real
He not wrong 😅
Love hearing from the nba players
I love it when Rondo said "so we talking stats?? " Thats perfect because the argument AGAINST LeBron being the goat is stats!! Now we are making the argument that stats make you a better player.
i feel kevin is caught up in history not today. u can argue he could be top 5 right now but the list starts with giannis, embid, joker, luka and the in season tournament is still game 20
how you gonna say that when kevin is averaging 31ppg on 50% 3pt? there is no wrong answer for a top 5 because there is at least 10 players who are interchangeable
i see nothing wrong with him i the running too, but my 3 with a bullet is embid, joker, and giannis. u can fill in others from there @@DurealzForReal
@@adreday10that's what I was saying. After Joel Joker and Giannis you can make an argument for LeBron being better than everyone else
It's funny that he only named four players but then said LeBron is 6 😂
Gotta feel for Rondo tryna reason with this stupidity
Maaannnn
The Suns needs both Boogie and Rondo right now ☀️🔥🤦🏽♂️
KG is real human no EGO at all what a ledend man ✊🏾
He's actually top 3 and could possibly be this yrs MVP💯
Thank you
Top 5 to 7 for sure. But the guy is 39 years old. That’s the crazy part
“I’m lord first!!!” 🤣🤣
Not after popping 🍾 🥂 like it’s JUNE‼️‼️😂😂😂
When you're talking about to 5 you're talking about consistency. That's why AD is never talked about in the top 5 because of his inconsistency. There is no player in the league more consistent than Lebron. He leaves his stamp on every game on both ends. And he has the stats. If Lebron had a game like Giannis in the in season tournament they'd crucify him but yet Giannis is often placed over Lebron in top 5 rankings.
He plays no defense compared to AD .. AD is more consistent than him if you take both offense/defense. He's a greatly consistent offensive player, with a great FG%, I'll give you that. But Giannis can do both much better on both ends., he's the most consistent in the league. SGA is better too, he's winning with similar talent around and has better stats. Same with Jokic, Embiid, Haliburton and even Luka. Lebron is better than Durant, on same level with Booker and Tatum. He is 100% top 10, but not top 5.
I wonder how it feels to be one of two players to win a championship with the Celtics and Lakers
😢dam. Never looked @ it like dat
the left hand dap KILLS ME.
Are we going to talk about to clip though lmao KG calling Paul Pierce a cupcake lmaooo
Boogie just trying to make an agreement just for this video 😂
Yep!
He’s telling the truth ‼️
Man im not putting Dudes With No Ring in The Top 5 ! 1.Joker 2.Bron 3.Greek Freak 4.Curry,5.Durant

Funny your list 3 of the 5 stayed loyal to their team patiently and got rings…the other 2 left to chase a ring so let that sing in too…does it change your mind? I feel like the greats should not demand or leave their team to finally win one or more 💯😏
@@jsongz201 Players got Smart and Took the Game into their own hands instead of letting Billionaire owners control their Destiny , Lebron was the first to do this and started a trend , so No i dont change my mind ,Cant stay stuck in the pass its a new era !
Who would of thought kg sticking up for bron love this !!
Somehow I agree with 3 of them. That was a nice segment.
Love hearing people calling it how it is never ain’t been done ! A spade a spade 😂
He’s definitely top 5
Kg's passionate about but nobody's really mad at each other it's just debating that's how real good friends that can debate this and have
I wish both of these guys were still on the court
Jokic. Embid. Giannis. Are the only players I’d say for sure are better right now. Luka is offensively a juggernaut but man he’s a liability on defense, Bron isn’t a great defender but he’s not a liability. Tatum is in the top 5, Bron is probably 5th right now
Man Giannis can't shoot to save his life. He can bulldoze to the rim but I guess you can put him over. I want to see when they play tgis year how ot turns out, so I'll save my comment until further notice. I want to see the Lakers and bucks play
luka damn near averaging a triple double w/ 32 ppg lebron isnt better
@DanielleAtronsParadiseValley we going to see tonight. I'm goingbto come back to this message
@@-_Bee Yeah because one game between players is the definitive answer to who the better player is at a team sport.
Legit brain dead take.
@@Grinner94These people are nuts I just can’t believe they are Rating anyone in Reference to this Fugazy IST! And not they are Considering Giving the Winner an Automatic Playoff BIRTH FOR THIS TOURNAMENT and Lebron has the Most Turnovers in History.
LBJ is still top 5 currently and is my favorite player to watch.
Reallyeeeee,you just said that,what aspect of his game is entertaining, seriously asking,cause a 6'8 dude laying up and doing the same lane ass dunk and jacking up 3's and playing zero defense, you're rite,he's so entertaining to watch 🤡
you havent watched any lakers ball this year apparently lebron has been playing great defense @@jamalblades3040
his game is ugly af bro ?!?! oooh uncontested layups and shoulder shrugs
@@jamalblades3040it's called an opinion. You didn't have to cry and wine about it just disagree....😂
Was is it wid y'all gen v and these bs rebuttals,cry about what,I asked a question,which none of you can answer because deep down tall know he's a propped up so called superstar
KG a real one
he's sippin' too early lol
He is top 5. There's no question about this. ❤❤❤
He's not Top 7 of all time. Aloha
hmmm yeah there's a massive question he's top 15 there's no question about that. He's top 12 very arguably. He's top 10 maybe... he's not top 5
KG ain't *_EVER_* gonna change 😂😂😂
(edit): Maaaaan Damarcus ain't ever gonna change either 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Boogie just contradicted his self smh
Like a mf
Boogie's logic makes as much sense as his career lol
😂 the man 38 check the stats he’s a beast
People want to do anything and everything to minimize LeBrons accomplishments…that’s how you know he’s GOAT!
so winning matters now or doesnt not matter at the end of the season ....cause there he has a losing record
The disrespect of nobody bringing up Curry's name is wild. He's been top 3 for a decade and nothing's different this season.
Lebron fans hate curry💯😭there’s no way you’ve been watching hoops the last decade and can’t say this wasn’t the curry era💯and 10 years prior to that it was the Kobe era. The lebron era was made up and manufactured but he was never that dude like the other 2 I just named
That’s crazy
Rachel Nichols over Malika Andrews any day ESPN took a lost
🤔 Bottom line is this... if your life depended on one NBA game to win and you could pick any player in the NBA to Captain that team you be a dead man if you didn't pick LeBron James!
Who are the 5 players ahead of him this season? Giannis, Luka, Joker and then who? Is not just stats. It's also impact. Maybe only Jokic is more impactful. In my opinion.
Yeah, I gave the edge to Joker..... 1) Joker, 2) Bron. Crazy to even be in this discussion at 39 lmao.
Durant embid Jokic giannis dame luka tatum brown Murray curry shai Hali edwards kwahi booker PG zion Ingram Anthony Davis shall I keep going yall boys is blinded by the stats and status😭💯
@@Dipset415 🤣L Comment bro. No one is blinded by status. You literally put Zion. ZION. I have no words.💀
Boogie talking talking for real
If you put Bron on The Bucks, Nuggets, Sixers, Celtics, and the Mavs, in the place of Tatum, Giannis,Luka, The Joker, and Embid…those teams are still top contenders. Put those players on the current Lakers squad without Bron… and they’re play-in game contenders maybe.
1. Joker
2. Giannis
3. Luka
4. LeBron
5. Curry
Embiid is disqualified from top 5 until he does anything in the post season imo. They don't lose despite him putting up great numbers. They lose and he has mid numbers to go with it. He actually has the skillset to be number one but the greats go down swinging
I'm a Lebron fan but at his age now I can respect that list💯
Embiid not on your list then your probably hating for no reason.
@@oo70mar I feel you on the defense but he always goes down swinging. He'll have great games but his teammates don't show up. With Embiid, his teams don't show up and neither does he, imo. I don't mean to be disrespectful. He's a phenomenal player
@@calebdejoun939 I promise I'm not. He's a great player but I put him in the same category with AD where they just don't show up in the big moments man. I'm a Heat fan. There's no way we should've beat them with the team we had versus him and the team they had but he doesn't seem to want it more. I promise I'm nota hater. He's a great talent but I just don't see the heart. I think Maxie might have more of a will to win than him. As far as I believe.
I wouldn’t put Luka over Bron
The 5 they put before bron has better teams, but still fell short. Bron has always done more with less. Ad is super inconsistent! That’s supposed to be brons second star
Shut up who is a nobody on his team when he was winning
Now y'all know good and damn well that Paul Pierce not giving LeBron NO CREDIT, NONE
05:14 Right, there is what we are talking about
KG was talking about All Time while Pierce was talking about today/this season...
KG is the perfect example of overly emotional men who get upset easily and didn't even listen to the question
Nah kg was stating facts lebron is still top 5 his mind way above everybody he named and he can still play wit the best of em
I disagree. He understood the question. When discussing elite players, their overall career contributions are crucial; otherwise, what's our benchmark? If we only consider the season's first 20 games, then Tyrese Haliburton is among the top 5. Ultimately, determining who the top players are at any given time is a blend of their historical and recent performances.
@@taygoated313 well stated bro
Stop drinking tap water.. top 5 NOW.. hell no! Boogie talking facts 💯
KG I feel u‼️💯
Bron carried the in season and got tourney MVP.. not to mention he’s still just playing amazing basketball ESPECIALLY for 39 years old.. And like that clip of him talking to AD about how to dismantle Myles Turner’s defense, his impact on the court is FAR beyond anyone else’s right now STILL.
Aye Rondo 1 of the realist 💪🏾🔥
I disagree with Cousins, he tripping 🤷🏾♂️
The problem is the narrative. When LeBron stacks his team and wins…he’s the greatest. When he stacks his team and loses, he needs more help.
I have to ask myself, if I’m starting a team, who am I picking up before Bron?
Steph, Jokic, and maybe Embid.
That’s it.
Yeah I’m taking Jokic embiid and Giannis and that’s it. Curry too.
the issue is...Bron doesn't have 5 years. In 2024, sure, Lebron should be on everyone's lineup.
And Embiid? His only chance is if he follows Dirk and just mentals-up.
Lebron and Jokic are the only Swiss-army-knives that can do a bit of everything. Even moreso Lebron because he can still guard 1-5 in high leverage situations. Best playmakers are Lebron & Jokic. Definitely wouldn't take Curry over Lebron you can always find a shooting specialist. Embiid is debatable not so much because he's better but because their is a glaring void at the Center position in the NBA. Most Centers are either undersized or weak/skinny and have no strength, on top not being very skilled either. Embiid & Jokic are literally the only Centers that aren't undersized or weak/skinny and actually have respectable skills.
@@cyberbron2077he just outplayed curry in playoffs
Lebron choked against the Nuggets!
Boogie said it in such a respectful way and gave context behind his take that at the end of his explanation you have more respect for LBJ. Good articulation. Rondo also has a good take but his explanation and contexts are all over the place and are designed to trap Boogie.
If the MONSTARS showed up on earth today, WE ARE SENDING LEBRON JAMES. Period.
He's not on my top 5. Too many turnovers a game. Sucks at free throws. Rarely plays defense. Chokes in close games.
Lebron is no.5 behind Embiid, Jokic, Luka, and Giannis. Tatum isn't better right now, neither is SGA, Anthony Edwards or anyone else
Garnett cooking Pierce is the best part. LOL. I am not a Lebron fan, but man. When the rubber needs to meet the road and the games matter. He shows up and balls out. He's top 5 for sure. Doncic is a top 5 point producer. But not a top 5 player til he starts winning meaningful games. And Doncic is my fav player, but lets be real. Winning gotta mean something. Balling out when the games matter, has to mean something. Lebron shows up when the lights are brightest and his team wins. Hence the IST win. If any other team won, they'd kill Lebron and celebrate the IST. But because Lebron won, now it's kinda looked at as whatever.
He’s not top five in anything really but he is number one in flops turnovers points and missed shots. If he’s not top five now and that’s a debate then he can’t be top five all time. Think mcfly think
This is good hoops talk
Paul pierce needs counseling, holding hate in your heart over sports is not healthy.
KG Threw up the VL and then said I’m a Lord firstAs a fellow brother I couldn’t do nothing but laugh
Boogie trying so hard to not mention the extra “help” they had ahhahahahah
5:12 When Boogie called game on this debate
Cuz keeping it real
1. Joker
2. Giannis
3. Embiid
4. Lebron/Doncic/Tatum
I would say lebron is probably the second best player right now behind only joker!
KG didn't understand the assignment.
You can't ask PP about lebron😂
Paul is still salty for the butt whooping Labron gave him.
