It’s important to be honest about analyzing these players’ legacies, or other takes aren’t going to be taken seriously.

You don’t need to look at the media to see Kobe has one regular season mvp and 2 scoring titles. If Kobe’s best attribute was his scoring and yet Allen iverson has more of those than him it’s not a crime to say hey this guy is not better than lebron or even Kareem.

@@raprevenue1922 LeBron has no bag, no ISO game, no post-up game, has an ugly jumper, his game isn't smooth. He looks awkward when he tries to get fancy with moves that are out of his skill level He needs a screen to do anything. All he knows how to do is barrel down the lane and flop to try to get an and1. And at the end of the day we are discussing who is the best basketball player, as far as mastering the game of basketball. Every aspect offensive and defensive without having any weaknesses or at least the least weaknesses in their game, skill set, etc. And LeBron is very limited compared to other greats as far as basketball skill, and mastery. And then there is the fact LeBron is more known for losing than winning. There is no way a true basketball fan would put LeBron in the top 5.

Kobe winning those 2 having similar amount of help as Bron those 2 years and Bron needing to join perennial all stars to try to out talent the competition tells you everything you need to know. Bron is closer to KD than Kobe tbh
When Kobe was playing I hated him so much. At one point the media was doing the same with Kobe in the Goat debate comparing him to Jordan and it rubbed me the wrong way then. Now I miss him so much! How times have changed.
Same here. Used to hate Shaq and Kobe. I was a huge MJ fan and Iverson helped me over the tough times when MJ retired. I couldn't appreciate Kobe cos he was such a MJ knockoff, evem talking like MJ. So I hated him but I newer DISRESPECTED him. I actually liked LeBron his first few years but grew to disrespect him and now I am a genuine hater.
Here's my theory. The media kept hyping up EVERY young and talented wing as "the next MJ." First it was Grant Hill, then Vince Carter, then Kobe, then LeBron, then etc. But it took until Kobe RETIRED for people to examine the historical record and the STYLE OF PLAY to realize: It is IMPOSSIBLE to play like MJ unless you are PRETERNATURALLY GIFTED. Nobody can even IMITATE MJ because his combination of SKILL, Fundamentals, High hopes IQ, and Athleticism have never been seen before....until Kobe. Kobe is the ONLY one to really do MJs skill-level, real justice, and give fans a view of what MJ was like - UNGUARDABLE. 81 Point Kobe was like "oh crap, so this is what THE BEST VERSION OF MJ would do in this era!" There's a REASON MJ has said the ONLY player who might be able to beat him one on one is Kobe. Kobe ACTUALLY UPLIFTED MJs legacy because he showed that in order to PLAY LIKE MJ, you LITERALLY have to be the HARDEST WORKING ATHLETE EVER, and even then you might end up a ring short (6rings for MJ > 5rings for Kobe). MJ is the GOAT, Kobe is #2 EVER. Kobe won more with less talent than Kareem and Magic and Bird and Wilt and Russell. Kobe BLOWS LeBron away. LeBalco, even with all his PEDs (Chael Sonnen EPO), can't touch Kobe.
@@feynmanschwingere_mc2270 There always has to be the next best thing and because Jordan had such a cultural impact on the league and society they will always try to replicate that instead of promoting their stars. Jordan came in at the perfect time because the media just came in and said he was Jordan not playing like Dr. J.
If Kobe were alive Stephen A could not be doing this. As for Shaq boosting Kobe it's because it's the truth. The fact that they hated each other basically had to do with Shaq's lack of training. LeBron stank in that series vs the Celtics. Even an old Shaq was a beast in the post and LeBron should have been able to exploit it.
Shaq was way past his prime when he joined the Cavs. You all know this and you're trying to make it seem as if he played with prime Shaq. Kobe played with prime Shaq and won despite Shaq's poor work ethic. This whole debate is plagued with inconsistency, innuendo and one sided rhetoric.
@@YESHAyahu777 Have you ever watched basketball? It's a great game. You should try it. Even an old slow Shaq is still Shaq in the post, especially in 2010 when the league rules had not yet softened up. Shaq still had his strength and dominance in the post. Feeding him the ball would have still worked but that's not what LeBron did. As for the three rings that Shaq and Kobe got together, they got them together because again that's how basketball works. It's a team sport. I didn't say that Shaq wasn't still a weapon of dominance because he didn't train. That would be as idiotic as what you're trying to claim. I said, and maintain that the tension between Shaq and Kobe was that Shaq didn't train. If Shaq HAD trained, even half as hard as Kobe did, it would have been enough to keep the peace between them. It was a poor strategy move on Shaq's part, one that he has addmitted to in many interviews.

He's PERENNIALLY leading ALL PLAYERS in the Finals in Turnovers. All this despite having the most help. Bronsexuals need to understand that if we are going to use STATS like PER, VORP, etc then Jokic HAS ALREADY PASSES LEFLOP 😂😂😂. And he's about to Catch LeFlops MVPs too. He will STATISTICALLY, in terms of "efficiency," blow LeFlop away (he already has).

The thing is the media brainwash is so real people will forget or call scrubs those great pieces like Smith, Green or Korver who would be considered major help in any other legend's case. It is an ongoing systematic degradation of every good player that have helped Lebron reach the finals or a ring and it started more brutally from his 2014 finals loss and his 2nd stint with the Cavs when we saw a top-5 PF of the decade (Kevin Love) be thrown around in media conversations like he is a plumber. Truly an insanse revision of history. Lebron's career is one of the most perfect cases of propaganda in recent history not only in sports but in general.
Don't forget about James Jones, Miami Heat. He was a 3pt sniper as well. Lets also not forget about Kevin Love and Rashad Lewis, who were both 3pt specialist as well.

They constantly downplay other all-time greats like Jordan and Kobe and so on to make LeBron look better.

He is a has been. He doesn't play defense and quits on his team. He always plays GM and Coach. He is no longer in his prime and no team is stupid enough to tolerate his nonsense maybe the Lakers. The Lakers are being forced to waste their top pick for his useless son.
I am with you, and I will most certainly be ready, willing and able to ring that bell the moment he officially gets the all time mark. He is already number one overall in most missed shots in the playoffs. AND he has the most turnovers in both the playoffs and regular season as well.
@@skap_attackthe hypocrisy. You’re ready to hate on Bron for that but you’ve never said a word about it in all these years of Kobe being the leader in all time missed shots.
DUDE, Lebron ALREADY has the record for most MISSED shots when you include the playoffs. Its already happened. The media likes to pretend like the playoffs don't count when it does. In fact, playoff MISSES should count MORE. And guess who has the PLAYOFF RECORD for MOST MISSED SHOTS? LeBalco. Guess who has the playoff record for most TURNOVERS? LeBalco. Guess who has the NBA record for most MISSED Free Throws in the playoffs? LeBalco. Guess who has the most TURNOVERS in the 4th Quarter in playoff history (by far)? LeBalco. Guess who has the most MISSED FGs in "Clutch Situations" in playoff HISTORY? LeBalco. The TURNOVERS stat could be it's own video. And ANOTHER idea I had for a video my dog Skap could do is on Lebron PADDING HIS STATS and his FAKE EFFICIENCY numbers by FLOPPING to the free throw line. Through 15 seasons, LeBalco has 500+ Free Throws more than MJ. He has over 600+ Free Throws more than Kobe. Of his Total scoring output, a FAR HIGHER PERCENTAGE of Lebron's scoring has come from the Free throw line than both Kobe and MJ. And, lastly, there have been THOUSANDS of LeBronze's MISSED FGs at the rim that have been BAILED out by Free Throw calls. If you took away even 10% of those calls, his field goal % DRASTICALLY plummets because MISSED FGs that were ERRONEOUSLY called as FOULS would be correctly registered as MISSED FGs. This gets EXPOSED in CLUTCH TIME when the refs swallow their whistles in close games and let the players decide. For anybody who needs a refresher, in the two biggest games of Lebalcos CAREER, Game 6 of the 2013 Finals, in the 4th Quarter he bricked a ton AND led all players in TOs until Ray Allen saved his butt. And in the 4th quarter in 2016, game 7, LeBalco MISSED FOUR STRAIGHT FGs playing hero ball until Kyrie BAILED him out with the most important shot in the history of the Cavaliers franchise (especially because it was a 3 and NOT a 2 point FG, to out the game out of reach, which is something that isnt spoken about enough). Lastly, could you do one on how Lebrons BAD DEFENSE on KD and Kawhi led to Finals LOSSES and how Lebron RARELY EVER guards the teams best player for any length of time in the playoffs - and when he does he gets COOKED. KD and Kawhi has 3 of the top 10 Game Scores for ANY Small Forwards in the history of the NBA FINALS. All vs LeSteroids. So to summarize, next video: LeBalco's Turnovers (especially in big games and in the 4th quarter). His RELIANCE on Free Throws to prop up both his "efficiency" stats (especially fg%) and his scoring output. His 65% CAREER 4th Quarter free throw %. And lastly, his bad defense in the Finals cost him 3 rings at least. So much material to plumb from! 😂😂😂 Love you Skap! ❤
@@skap_attackLebron ALREADY has the record for most MISSED shots when you include the playoffs. Bronsexuals use the "the went 16-6 vs Kobe in the regular season." Which is easily debunked by, 1, showing ALL the super stars with WINNING records vs Lebronze in the regular season (e.g. Paul Pierce, Duncan, Curry, Kawhi, Jokic etc). You can also show how REGULAR SEASON matchups are meaningless: Phoenix Suns beat Minnesota (2023/2024) FOUR STRAIGHT TIMES in the regular season (4-0), only to get SWEPT by the exact same Minnesota team when the real games matter in the playoffs. That alone is sufficient to debunk the silly "LeBum was 16-6 vs Kobe in the regular season" 😂😂😂. And then you can show THREE STRAIGHT POST SEASONS of Kobe BEATING TEAMS that directly annihilated Lebron in the post season (07 Spurs, Kobe gentleman swept in 2008 WCF, 2009 Magic, Kobe gentleman swept in the 2009 Finals, 2010 Boston which Kobe came BACK from 3-2 down - with two broken bones in his shooting hand and a partially torn meniscus - to BEAT the Boston team that sent LeBronze packing to south beach. As for the "Most Missed Shots" record, it's already happened. The media likes to pretend like the playoffs don't count when it does. In fact, playoff MISSES should count MORE.

😂😂💀💀 it’s sad how you all disrespect the whole team and praise one or two players. You all must’ve forgot the Derek fishers, big shot bob robert Horry who might I add was apart of 7 championships where he made several big shots. It’s so many players that contribute to the teams winning championships. Just shows how selfish this culture is.
@@raprevenue1922that’s why the Queen gets so much backlash because he constantly disrespects coaches and teammates look at all the hof and all stars he’s played with but yet he’s constantly blaming teammates and coaches for losing when 2 of his chips was won by sidekicks but he gave his self all the credit still does til this day
@@shonrobinson1742 jealousy will get you nowhere. You don’t have to disrespect or hate another man because you want to uplift your favorite player. I’m not a fan of Kobe or LBJ but I respect them for being top players. They both played with teams and every one of them had different roles to fulfill.
Can't agree more. The hypocricy, and disrespect for Kobe's greatness has been something that has always rubbed me raw. I can't stand how people talk about Kobe's first 3 championships as if they didn't happen, or talk as if Kobe was in sitting in a car seat with a pacifier while Shaq was driving. It's revisionist history. Every great player played with at least one other great player. I was alive to see those championship runs, and the toxic media debate at the time was "who's team is it"? How is their a question in the media back then if Kobe was being carried by Shaq? In fact, Kobe covered for Shaq a lot of times when Shaq was sitting out from having surgery, being out of shape, or being stuck in foul trouble. Without both of those guys playing together at the height of their powers, the Lakers don't 3-peat back then.
