Visit www.nba.com/video for more highlights. Most players don't get their own Top 10 in a year, but in 2007, LeBron James made enough spectacular plays to have a Top 25.
Unbelievable how much athleticism he had. Still at 33, he's one of the best athletic players in NBA. But how majestic did he look back then in full flow
What he did to the 07 Pistons and the 16 Warriors in the playoffs earns him GOAT discussion. And he's still freakishly durable, skilled and consistently high level.
@@daytes4528 the 07 ecf finals and 16 finals are proof enough that he's GOAT. But he also dominated a 3 future MVP OKC team, is the only reason Pop/Duncan ever lost in the finals, was a two time DPOY runner up and went 44-5 in the first round between 07-17. Oh and his first playoff game was a 30 point triple double. How is all that not as impressive as Jordan, Kareem, Kobe, Bird or Magic or whoever you think is better?
man, its crazy how much strength and athletisim he has compared to many other nba players. im not talking abt skill. im talking his physical abilities, its just crazy. truly gifted
Shame on the Cavs for giving the greatest player of the 21st century some of the worst rosters of all time. Look we all know Cleveland isn't an amazing place to live, but its like they didn't even try. They somehow managed to not fuck up drafting Kyrie (who's become quite the polarizing figure) and they only got Love because Lebron insisted. Among the worst run franchise of all time up there with Dolan's Knicks, Hornets/Bobcats/Pelicans and Sterling's Clippers.
2. Eh...it was difficult but bball players are trained to throw up whatever possible when they hear whistles. 1. Simply amazing, one of the best plays in the NBA for '07.
hope u´re right, he sure deserves those titles. this "unwritten rule" that "only winners become mvps" sucks. it should be about the best and most complete player instead of the guy with the best team. its so great though to watch nba right now, because there are quite a few future legends on the courts: howard, kobe, lj, josh smith...we´ll remember them for long long times!
Maybe Rodman wasn't exactly the key to the Bulls success but Jordan didn't start winning championships until Pippen and Phil Jackson came along. That's a Hall of Fame player and THE best coach ever, helping the best player ever to win a championship. Jordan needed help, and so does Lebron (though he's getting it now). And Jordan is still the best, Lebron has a long way to go.
I thought that LeBron was slightly overrated a couple of years back, but after watching him more this season he has really proved he may be the best in the league. Don't get me wrong I've always been a big fan of his but i thought that there was too much hype around him.
LeBron's athleticism (explosion, quickness, agility) was so much better in Cleveland. He looks like he's moving in slow motion in the half-court now a days compared to this.
I'd say that Carmelo Anthony is actually a mixture of both Kobe and Lebron since, hes got the size and the great fould attracting ability that Lebron has, as well as a magnificent soft shooting touch that Kobe's got XD sooo that makes Anthony a very good player!
I'm a personal Bryant fan but, man, you gotta respect that dunkng technique. I'll be honest in saying that, in my opinion, his jams have been the best scince Michael Jordan's. Sure, Kobe's are pretty impressive, but the way Lebron does it just looks so much more satisfying. That power he gets when bring the ball down on the hoop is unmatched
I still don't understand why people haven't learned that Lebron is the master of pinning the ball on the backboard. I swear they just never learn.... They can just hope that Lebron would give them mercy once and a while.
nah im sayin more from his rythym wise back in the old days. When he was younger he seemed less hesitant from his shooting and just his release looked better too... like you aint seeing him pulling up 5 feet behind the 3 point line anymore is what im saying... but ur definitely right about the efficiency... hes way more consistent now
You just proved my point. Horry played his role and needed good players to help him win. Same as kobe. He needed Shaq to win, and now he needed Gasol, Odom, Ariza and Fisher. And in case you didn't know, Z, Ben, and Sczerbiak are no longer all-stars. Mo was a fill-in. P.S. Do you have Facebook? If you do, hit me up on the NBa page discussion board. It's easier to talk there than on RU-vid.
i think he is just preserving he's energy and reducing any injury chances, if you he jumps the same, but he is playing the game smartly these days he dont need to dunk it with power any more he jumps high and chose to lay it in most of the time and i admire him for thar
Whenever someone says Kobe sucks, or LeBron sucks, disregard their opinion. I don't care who you think is better (I'd take LeBron), but both are AMAZING. Just respect the talent
jdogg, althoguh YES, you are right that kobe did have shaq which is by all means a HUGE help, you can easily tell that kobe quickly readpted and is playing GREAT right now as the team is
I am Both Lebron and Kobe fan. Lebron james young and full of potential,still building his career. Kobe 5 rings,A legend and one of the best player. Why compare them?
