That's bullshit man. No one forgets about those things.

How is he still that good after 15 years and like 11 deep playoff runs?? HOW??! 8:55 onward....watch how he dribbles hard to his right to pull Baynes away from Tristan, so he can dribble behind his back to the left and keep Morris looking at him, so he can throw the lefty bounce to Tristan for the wide open dunk.

Lebron is the only star that's not allowed to lose without his legacy being questioned. Did you see Pippen or Shaq playing with him ? No one has won more big games with less talent then the team he is playing against then LeBron James. Kobe, Jordan, Magic, Bird and Duncan can lose a game but LeBron can't.

Exactly! No other player in NBA history has the complete skillset of playmaking, scoring, athleticism, etc required to carry this sorry Cavs team to the finals!
I'm in my mid 30s. I've watched alot of jordan . Saw kobe grow into the star and he was my all time favorite rest his soul 😭 but you cannot sit up and act like lebron isnt the goat. No he doeant have that offensive killer instinct they had . But he has everything else and some. His all around game is second to none. Nobody really hated on him like that until he really started threatening the idea he was the best cus his first few years everybody loved him . The other excuse is the miami thing. He gave Cleveland everything he had the first time any smart coach would have done all they could to hey him help. He was gas'd so he made a move which paid off and than came back home and gave us probly some of the best ball hes every played in his career .
Yeah.. Couldn't agree more. Kobe and Mj were great. But put either of them in this Cavs team instead of Bron, no finals for sure. Only Bron can carry this team to the finals. Even Durant can't do this...
Whoever all time great player you put in that team, that 2018 and 2007 Cavs team are not going to end up in the finals. Only LeBron can lead that team.
LBJ is special. His 2018 playoff run is the greatest individual performance I've ever seen from an NBA player!!! This guy was on a whole different level and it showed.
Lebron only beat one 50-win team in the Playoffs during his time in Cleveland from 2003 to 2010, and that against the 2007 Pistons with no 4x DPOY Ben Wallace. *2007 Cavs faced one team above .500 in East.* Even in Miami, his East competition was very weak. *In 2013, For example he beat 0 ( ZERO ), 50-win teams before making the Finals.*
@@allanhouston6759 using the others to proof your hate is like bruh Actually never heard about any good team besides Boston in 90's or 80's don't really remember, even while there's "so many good teams wow" that MJ beat "We believe" Warriors is actually a good team so if you wanna talk like this Also it's an era of superteams, so I don't really care about the season-end standings. I'll be even more excited if there's 8 teams in the play-offs with maybe 1-2 wins differential between each other. More chances for everybody to win. What's the point of making 50% or more wins at the end of the season if you can't even make 6-7 games series against the best teams

Watching this, now i know why this man had so much hate in the eyes of the people. This man is a bad man. What a power and sheer determination. Ive never seen this kind of player. 🐐
Man I’ve been watching the 2022 playoffs and it’s been fun but nobody puts on a show from game to game like any year of prime Lebron. And I’m with you, 2018 Lebron was something else.
Even tho he still won the championship (2020) you can tell ever since he got injured back in 2019.. Lebron lost his bounce! 2018 was his last year dominating the league athletically
Funny thing is ppl were still trying to say then that KD was the best player in the world at that time.. The dude could never be double teamed.. Just the dumbest takes..
Watching this now after he has won his 4th ring with the lakers, it’s still unbelievable that he pulled off this incredible playoff run and took this G league team to the NBA finals. Unfathomable. That’s my Goat right there.
This is basketball nirvana.. the skill and muscle this guy throws at you combined with the greatest basketball IQ ever is not supposed to be possible. This is to me when we saw basketball skill & iq peak. There won’t ever be another player like this ever
Watching the games live, I will never forget that time he blocked Rogier's dunk and when Morris backriding him and he still scored. What a monster performance

@@michaelspeaks4398 Steph is good but let's be honest it's more likely he thrived under Steve Kerr's system. GSW coaching system is probably the best in the league
Lebron made the east look easy even when he didn’t have help. When you gave him a Wade or Kyrie, it was a wrap. The kryptonite for Lebron teams was always teams with great ball movement offenses like the 2014 Spurs or 15-18 Warriors.
LBJ dominated the game of professional basketball for over 10 years. He’s donated an entire conference for over a decade, give this dude respect. He’s the 🐐
Savannah Gonzalez yes Indeed. IMO the GOAT is Michael beacause of the ringzzz argument and what he achived during his peak years but LeBron must be the BOAT because of his overall play, his athletism and longevity and the quality of the opposition he is currentely facing. Of course this is highly debatable and all, in other sports GOATs may be BOATs (Schumacher, Federer,...) but it is not a always the case :)

Greatest player Ive ever watched. When this series happened I was new to basketball, but I still could recognize how great it was. My biggest observation was how Lebron moved at a different speed, like he wasn’t even trying.
I love how the refs don't give Marcus Smart charge calls any more. He has become the boy who cried wolf, lol. I counted like 7-8 blatant flops in this one video.
During the 2017 and 2018 playoffs Lebron averaged 33.5/9/9/1.5/1 those are prime Jordan playoff numbers for about 40 games in his 14th and 15th seasons.

@Thomas Sankara wdym then the nets?
@Thomas Sankara sixers won't be in the finals anytime soon and whether the Nets make it or not depends alot on if KD can lead them their cause Kyrie ain't built to lead a team like Lebron
What you mean 4 straight? It was 8th straight 2011-2018
I've never seen a more complete player than this version of LeBron James. UNREAL
How is he still that good after 15 years and like 11 deep playoff runs?? HOW??! 8:55 onward....watch how he dribbles hard to his right to pull Baynes away from Tristan, so he can dribble behind his back to the left and keep Morris looking at him, so he can throw the lefty bounce to Tristan for the wide open dunk. This is a guy controlling the game by playing 3 steps ahead at the highest level, like 1,400 total games into his career.

Michael YU - You sound so stupid. If you knew ANYTHING AT ALL about basketball, then YOU would know that the Coaching staff's job is to teach the team what to do on Offense and defense. The basketball players jobs are to execute those offensive plays and defensive schemes/sets as well as they can. Lebron doesn't COACH the team idiot.

No he doeant have that offensive killer instinct they had . But he has everything else and some. His all around game is second to none. Nobody really hated on him like that until he really started threatening the idea he was the best cus his first few years everybody loved him . The other excuse is the miami thing. He gave Cleveland everything he had the first time any smart coach would have done all they could to hey him help. He was gas'd so he made a move which paid off and than came back home and gave us probly some of the best ball hes every played in his career .

Also it's an era of superteams, so I don't really care about the season-end standings. I'll be even more excited if there's 8 teams in the play-offs with maybe 1-2 wins differential between each other. More chances for everybody to win.

Mj had scottie one of the best 2 way players and arguably the best perimeter defenders who carried mj in every stat and rodman arguably best rebounder at least top 3 rebounder and arguably the best defender defender also Steve Kerr who leads the NBA in 3 pt % till this day haters are crazy
@@akplayz417 Check your facts, dumba$$.
Kevin Love was in his Prime when he played with Lebron James. He was only 26 years old when he joined Lebron James.
Ray Allen, Dwight Howard, Rondo ? ?
But RODMAN was also not in his Prime when he played with Michael Jordan. He was already 35, 36 years old. He was very good in 1996. But in the 1997 and 1998 Playoffs he played very poorly.
1997 Playoffs:
*RODMAN ( age 35 )= 4-ppg. FG-37% 8-RPG.*
1998 Playoffs:
*RODMAN ( age 36 )= 5-ppg. FG-37% 12-RPG.*
@@allanhouston6759 When ur trying to show LeBron has had all this help but the best you can do is an injury prone D-Wade & Chris Bosh, a one-dimensional PG who can't lead a team, an underperforming Kevin Love, & a out of prime Ray Allen, Rondo & Dwight Howard. AD is the only MVP candidate you got, & LeBron joined him at the age of 35 & just turned 36, which according to u means an athlete is far out of his prime, as u said that since Dennis Rodman "was already 35 & 36" he wasn't effective.
Put Kobe, MJ or KD in this Cavs team and let's see if they can carry it as efficient as LeBron did
They wouldn’t be able to
2017 ECF:
5"8 Isiah Thomas was the best player of the Boston Celtics. But even he was injured and did not play vs Lebron.
2013 ECF:
*In 2013, Paul George ( age 22 ) was not yet a superstar, only averaged 17-ppg, on 42%.*
Still needed 7 games to beat the Pacers.
2018 ECF:
Rookie Jason Tatum ( age 19 ) vs Lebron James.
Still needed 7 games to beat the Celtics.
2012 ECF:
Post-injuries Kevin Garnett ( age 36 ), Ray Allen ( age 36 ), Paul Pierce ( age 34 ), Rondo.
Still needed 7 games to beat the old Celtics.
*Even Andre Iguodala was able to win 3 games against the old Celtics in the 2012 ECFR.*
And he didn"t have a teammate like D Wade.
*If MJ in the East, played against such weak teams, he would play in the Nba Finals every year.*
Lebron feasted in the weak East.
@@allanhouston6759 then Jordan feasted on a weak east too, only beat the celtics and pistons when they got old, stop the bullshit

1991 Pistons:
*Dennis Rodman HoF ( age 30 ) - 2x Defensive Player of the Year ( 1990 and 1991 ).*
*Isiah Thomas HoF ( age 30 ) - All-star 1991.*
*Joe Dumars HoF ( age 27 ) - All-star 1991.*
By your logic, Prime Lebron James lost to the elderly and disabled.
2014 Spurs:
Tim Duncan ( age 38 ), Manu ( age 36 ), Tony Parker ( age 32 ).
*In 2014, Kawhi Leonard ( age 22 ) was not yet a star, only averaged 12-ppg.*
@@allanhouston6759 my logic? Im going off the bs you’re saying lol talking “weak east” as an excuse what happen before the 2010’s? Was the east weak with Boston and Orlando? Detroit? you probably think Jordan would be undefeated in the finals had he been in the same spot as Lebron when in reality he would’ve gotten his ass bent sideways and would’ve retired if he had to go against those (2015-2018) warriors, cause he was not winning a single chip with the rosters Lebron had
