Lebron's ESPYS speech is more proof as to why he's disliked 

The man oozes narcissism.

“When you're good at something, you'll tell everyone. When you're great at something, they'll tell you.” - Walter Payton.

"Any man who must say 'I am the King' is no true King."

He can crown himself all he wants if it helps him sleep at night. But we all know who the real GOAT is.

“Lethey/Lethem” is crazy 💀

Lebron’s narcissism is unmatched.

Respect is earned. No wonder a lot of people never regarded him in the first place.

This is on point. Jordan never talked like that. Always respected the ones before him. Almost cringed over the whole conversation. Jordan never felt insecure about it during his reign, let his game talk.

And this is why Michael Jordan will always be the best. His game speaks for itself.

Bro Lebron's corny asf. He's so insecure. Same with Kevin Durant (among multiple other instances) calling himself the greatest scorer of all time the other day. "Any man who must say 'I am the king' is no true king."-Tywin Lannister.

At least he's self aware enough to know that he's despised by at least half the NBA fan base. People that are respected don't go around asking for respect all the time.

Things LeFlop gave to the game 1) The most uncalled travels and the most egregious uncalled travels 2) The most uncalled offensive fouls (off hand stiff arm on every drive) 3) How to pretend to read a book

I'm really trying to be a better person these days, and not hate on people for superficial reasons, but dammit LeBron, why you have to make this so difficult?!?

LeBron has an anime girl temperament.

The “lucky for YOU, today is not that day…” line was the most egregious line he could have used in that instance. A Lebron is like an onion, just when you thought you couldn’t respect him less, he manages to peel away a layer and reveal a new reason to see him as less than before.

At this point - we jus need someone to humble this man.

Most insecure superstar in all of sports. I’ve never seen someone beg for respect and admiration like this. Sure there are ones just as egotistical, but they don’t beg for the respect.

LeCringe is a dork. Nobody can deny it at this point.

Most of the negativity that comes LeBron’s way is self inflicted ‼️

"I can guard 1 through 5." Mate, there was only one player who could ever do that, and that's Dennis Rodman, the best defensive player of all time.

"Any man who must say 'I am the king' is no true king." Tywin Lannister

Lebron is a product of the culture. He's a phenom. He's been worshiped since he was a child.

Ever since they called him the chosen one, I couldn't respect him. Can't stand how the leage and the media keep cramming this under achiever down our throats. The whole 🐐 discussion is so contrived and forced.

"Please welcome to the stage, the GOAT, respectfully, Lebron James" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I never seen the opening part and I'm already done 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡

Three things i took away from thr ESPYS: 1. The narcissism and desperation of this man wanting respect; he knows he don't have it. 2. The desperation of ESPN making this a top story of him not retiring. How is that a breaking story? Only one person tried to make it a story and it was him as he tried to deflect it from the fact that he got swept in the WCF and tried to burry the Nuggets. 3. My wife. She clowned him with the pearl necklace, ststing that he got it from the Bronsexuals load they were jizzing that night😅

Lebron has to remind his kids at the dinner table that he's the goat and says "The King says grace".

He’s now saying he’s switching back to 23 because he wants to respect Russell. He expects us all to be like omg look how humble and graceful of lebron to switch his number almost a year after the guy died. He knows that the media will report anything and it seems like he needs to be in the forefront of everything.

"Love me, I know some of you hate me but.. ummm" God damn man, I had to pause it. Just made me cringe so bad. I really don't hate Lebron but man he makes it easy for people to hate him. People who handled their shit and know it don't speak like this. You never heard MJ, Kobe, Tim, Dirk, and pretty much any other all time great talk like this. Cause they all know they got it like that, Lebron talking like this just says everything.

So damn full of himself… smh the older I get the more I dislike him

Lefraud back at it again

The real issue with LeBron is his incessant need for validation from others and he keeps on propping himself as the self-proclaimed goat. The true GOATs of the game never crowned themselves as the greatest, never had the media protecting them from criticism, but let their game, attitude, accolades speak for themselves. This just proves LeBron is insecure of himself still trying to prove and surpass the ghost of Mr. 23 that has done more in a shorter amount of time.

Coming on stage with Marge Simpsons pearls on his neck🤨🤨 Y'all willllll respect me 😂😂

I DONT EVEN HAVE A NUMBER 2 TO BE HONEST I JUST KNOW THAT IVE NEVER SEEN NOTHING LIKE JORDAN..HE’S WAY MORE THAN RINGS..MJ>

There is a reason why fans have latched onto guys like Kareem, Bill Russell, Larry Bird, Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant. Only a small piece of it is their skill set. The rest is because of who they are and their tenacity on the court. Lebron is not the same type of player or person as those guys. He is more of an entertainer of Hollywood.

He so clowned out and insecure, he had to have his wife say he's the GOAT for him because he didn't want to get dragged for saying it himself again 😂😂😂😂😂😂

He is good second fiddle in every champion team where he was . In Miami - Dwayne Wayde , in Cleveland - Kyrie Irving , in LA - young guys and Antony Davies . He never win alone .

She didn’t even believe that coming out her mouth

When it comes to the GOAT argument, it just feels like LeBron is doing a job interview telling everyone his accomplishments. I don't want to hear that, I can make up my own mind.

I was a fan of Bron (I still have MJ as the G.O.A.T) but the longer this man plays the more I'm starting to change my way of thinking. It's like he has to say things to not only convince everyone else, but to convince himself he's the greatest. Even his wife seemed uncomfortable calling him the G.O.A.T and saying he's done more for basketball than anyone 🤣🤣

The man stole Jokic's moment with the retirement fiasco

LeFraud is a G.O.A.T. of this generation, Jordan is a G.O.A.T. of all time. Jordan was never swept in a series 😆

Jordon wasn't there so lebrons wife is misinformed as she spreads misinformation

You don't ask for respect..you don't ask to be "kinged".

I’m a big lebron fan but imma be honest u did spit some facts

10 years after he retires, the media will barely talk about him while jordan is still in discussion and his shoes and apparel are still around.

It's just insane how Bronsexuals don't see this farce. I had a guy tell me in the cringey ESPY video comments that MJ won only bcos of his 90s defensive teams and "defense wins championships", and Scottie was READY BUILT. That was when I realised I was in the twilight zone with these Lefanatics.

Bro not even 3 seconds in and I'm already heated!

Don’t call him LeVader, cause Vader is an actual GOAT.

I still have Kobe over Lebron... I don't know how people pass over Kobe and Duncan like they weren't generational talent... so disrespectful. Lebron can have the records. Kobe had to TEACH Lebron what it took to win.. and he still hasn't learned. If it' wasn't for Kobe.. Lebron would not have won the gold. I truly believe that. Sad that his wife disrespected all that came before by saying that. They truly believe that if they keep saying it.. people will believe it.

Not once have I ever heard LeBaby say "I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for you guys"

I couldn’t have said this any better!!! I love the sense of annoyance expressed in this monologue also.I feel the same

Lol Lebron is so insecure. Future fans gonna be so confused when they realize Lebron only won 3.3 rings

Poor man is the most insecure professional in the history of the world. Oh well. LET'S GO HEAT!

"Their pronouns are LeThem and LeThey". Sent me to the grave! 😂👍🏿 I don't mind a minority thinks he's the greatest even though he clearly objectively isn't. It's the fact that he's tryna push this so much that it's honestly pathetic at this point. He wants respect he doesn't show or will get any by making those claims.

it's not just basketball. it's how to control a narrative.

I didn’t have a problem with the speech, I didn’t wanna assume whether or not Savannah said that on her own, but some of the other stuff you pointed out was pretty bad. I can’t believe he wore a shirt with his face on it😂 The timing with Wembanyama made it even worse

i like how lebron says he is the goat but mj doesnt say it but people still think mj is the goat, thats why i choose mj

The greatest of all time doesn't need to tell people he's the GOAT.

Mj ans kobe will always be better than this clown

The ps5 promise is sacred. You know when you swear on that you telling the truth😭

Why did Lebron have to come back from a deficit in the 1st place? I can't stand his arrogance!!!

He doesn't even believe it himself. He's trying to convince himself that he's the greatest.

1:22 That head twitch after he said some of you might hate me said more then that ESPY speech he said ever could.

“I swear on my PS5.” Dude, I lost it 😂

1:23 “Um is respect…respect me.” The stutter is deafening.

"But the one thing you will do is respect me..." You sure about that?

He just doesn't get it. What I don't respect about him is the way he plays and approaches the game. He has and is ruining basketball. What is he going to do with the new flopping rules in place. He is screwed!

criteria for greatness: -stats/records -winning/championships (and yes, **how** they won also matters) -innovation/game-changer -legacy/state of the league before and after -star power/charisma Lebron loses in all but the first category to Jordan, and honestly he loses in most categories to most other GOAT candidates. in fact he's arguably a net negative in the last two categories.

The Queen begging for respect does let you know that it bothers him that people don't like him and I can honestly say that make me feel good. Dude had a pearl necklace choker on I mean I don't care if that thing cost millions of dollars he should give it to his wife and let her wear it. Wow, what an annoying attention loving overhyped superstar he is. 🙄 😒

Demands to be called the GOAT, demands to be respected. And that's why he's disliked.

Kobe better

6:26 Exactly, and the stage is already being set for that right now as we speak. We already have this wave of European players coming in and dominating at an MVP level and the game is becoming more representative of worldwide talent. There are definitely gonna be fanboys who will hold that against LeBron because the league will be more diversified and position-less than when LeBron first joined. And unfortunately, his fans are blindly contributing to that culture when they talk about Michael Jordan in that way.

you dont demand respect... you EARN that respect

You got my subscription bro! Love the no nonsense talk. So many creators are just gaming algorithms and I’m not hating on them, because I get it, but it’s a breath of fresh air hearing a creator valuing content and artistic choices over views. Keep it up!!

I have LBJ at #3 in my opinion. Kobe is #2 for me cause even tho people will say a lot of different things about Kobe’s career but Kobe did 2 things that I don’t think we will ever see again and I think it will age great like wine. Kobe’s 81 point game and him out scoring the hole Dallas Mavs team. -Lets be honest here….nobody has ever witnessed Wilt’s 100 point game so for Kobe to came 19 points away from it is the closest thing we will get. Heck he did it where the 3 ball wasn’t crazy. Also I want y’all to ask this question: Who do you think has a better chance of getting close to Wilt’s 100??? -Seeing Kobe out score the whole Dallas Mavs roster (even tho it’s by 1 point) that will never be seen again. Similar to the last one who do you think it’s capable of out scoring everyone????? (Sure people will say that Kobe was a “ball hog” for both of those games but yet again who do think is capable of ever doing that again????)

Lebron would be lucky to be in the top 5 maybe 6-8 all time

The comparison of lebron and drake is accurate. They both complain for ANY criticism and are emotionally driven.

Ffs. If he was just great, and not loud and narcissistic, he wouldn’t have the amount of haters he has.

LeBron forgot that a true GOAT doesn't need to win after being down 3-1 cos a true GOAT doesn't even let that lead happen.

any man that has to say "I am the king" is no king. it is what it is.

The fact he got his wife to say that bs is crazy

That 2018 run is overrated, he ain’t better then kobe

1:19 Lebanon wearing a pearl necklace as a CHOKER. 🙄Since Kobe died this guy totally started showing who he really is. The chopped up snake on the laker court is FUCKED UP! 1:43 well said!

I’ll say this Over 120 trades since July of 2010 & getting 2 or more superstars or all star caliber players to be great same with KD these guys aren’t great without superteams build around them

If a person says "I want y'all to respect me" only proves that he doesn't have it. Respect is earned not given. Closing his mouth is the better choice to do, instead of repeatedly asking for it.

D Wade out here painting his fingernails 😂

I want to say that LeBron James is nothing more than a sports media creation hungry for more Michael Jordan after he retired, but I see the talent James has and I thought sports media was trying to get over their Jordan addiction by following Kobe. Now I see LeBron as Triple H during the Attitude era, only without marrying the boss's daughter.

Narcissist

Bear in mind that this guy is surrounded by people that would only ever kiss his ass. It's not entirely his doing. But when people are friendly with a celebrity, they'll tend to avoid being confrontational to maintain their acquaintance. Basically, he has a ton of two-faced friends and business partners.

Also to point out the hater thing: Everybody who gets big enough will garner haters, but he just seems to stir the pot on purpose and rile up people. Haters are like hornets: Your gonna get stung every once in a while, you shrug it off and move on, but certain people who take a stick and whack the nest?!?!? They get no sympathy, cause that person knew better and did it anyway.

Jordan fans are the only people that want a man's wife to give praise to a different man at his own speech 😭Mike's my GOAT tbh but i swear some u jordan stans are gay.

Love your content brother. Never heard someone I agree w on damn near every topic to do w the NBA.

"Anyone who says 'I Am King' is no true King," said a wise man from Westeros.

1:06 “When I beat those 7 teams who had a combined record of 55-75 (42% winning percentage) and won the In-Season Tournament Sin-City Las Vegas Nevada Championship plus the BLM Mickey Tricky Orlando Bubble Championship, that one right there made me the greatest player of all-time.” - LeBron James 💪

After digesting the entire video, great job. Love your take. Only I believe in one different thing. If lebron would've waited till this moment to speak as he did, I would agree with him. Because in this time and age I feel as if alot of people lack self confidence, and someone of his status saying that may inspire people to be proud of themselves. But in this case specifically, he has definitely over done it. Creating a world for himself to live in. Maybe he's chronically online?

Didn't Robert Horry win a 🏆 with the Lakers,Spurs, and Rockets???

Honest people don't have to tell you how honest they are, those that tell you their honest are usually con-artists. Those that are the best, don't ever have to convince others. Not one other player in my lifetime has claimed to be the GOAT. The only thing Lebron has given the NBA is super teams, disrespect of players towards coaches and fans, Load management and great acting awards.

“Any man who must say, I am the king, is no true king.” Shoutout Tywin Lannister 💯

I know one thing that I don't think Lebron realizes is that it's going to be very hard for Bronny in the league if he makes it. You can't make people love you.
