The Complete Compilation of LeBron James Greatest Stories Told By NBA Players & Legends (PART 2) 

Ok. And Bill Russell and MJ said Kobe was in a whole nother league than Lebron. Oof? You can't compare the two like that. They're both greater at different things. But you're probably someone that never played a second of basketball. Or any sport for that matters..

@@nickbrooks2408it’s different tho cause Russell ain’t a contemporary to them. He did not play against any of them so it’s different

@@erikescobar6616 Okay. Gilbert Arenas,AI, and even Ray Allen said the same thing. Is it still different? You can't compare the two like that. Same as Jordan and lebron.

@@nickbrooks2408 Duncan was better than all three of those guys

and he was right lol, only thing kobe has over bron is 1 ring that's it

You mean when the nba suspended Green

@@TheAztecWarrior100 and LeBron and Kyrie still dropped 41 the very next game he came back….?? Fuck is we talking about

What comeback? You can only have a comeback if you had a status and lost it. What kind of status are we talking about? I don’t see a relevant status🤷🏼‍♂️

They had 3 opportunities to close them out Foh

@@rayking2396 And then Bron dropped 41 again. These niggas say anything

Game recognize game

@@mak.lee_pnw5098 facts

and he definitely meant that shit 😂

TIM DUNCAN said that. That all you need to hear

Averaging 30+

He averaged 30 shooting 60 percent for like 9 straight games. That Miami season was crazy. But these things go unnoticed because people dislike lebron.

It may be 15-20 years from now that we will appreciate how great #6 really was in those 4 seasons

dude has the second highest ppg in 2022 rn im dead lol

@@boektcity while wearing #6

@@EXCEDRIN10 true. Just hyped because nba is boring and soft now

Coach.. point guard..sf..center..gm..lifeguard.. philanthropist..father 😂

He LeNba

he can play all 5 positions plus LeCoach and LeGM

Letaco enthusiast

True. When the hate campaign stop I'll get tired of hearing it.

Goat

Kobe was always Kool but he became big bro since the Olympics

People watched the last dance and declared MJ goat! Wait until lebron's! It'll be crazy

@@nanagyan1151 lebron's documentary is going to be crazy. The man is probably going to have about 25 seasons of highlights before it's all said and done. They're gonna need to make that a 6 part series each atleast an hour and a half long per episode.

On a team with multiple HOFers

Legendary 😊

Unless people don't want to admit Tim Duncan is the GREATEST PF ever, His statement about a 22 Year old player, makes him definitely The GOAT in year 2024

I agree people who say LeBron only likes to create super teams are stupid because whenever he leaves those teams they just get worse and can't even compete for a championship. Lebron does not create super teams, he's a super player.

@@Hunter-uq5fh facts lol lebron could’ve went to any team in 2010 other than miami and it would’ve been unfair

@@thedon5367 whats worse, they talk about loyalty as if lebron was the first one to leave a team ever. Meanwhile they clearly couldnt put players around him and clearly werent in any position to do so. The man gets hate for leaving a dumpster fire situation. I will admit rhe decision was incredibly lame and dumb but eh. I got over it 🤣

Bro thank you for this

@@ParamoreFAV3 anytime, I love basketball as a whole and grew up watching these two. People just try to project their hate on to these players. Kobe was mad happy that Bron went to LA and said he was family. He was the first one to congratulate him when Bron passed Kobe for all-time points scored. (That was actually his last ever social media post was celebrating Bron). Bron has always said how much of a fan of Kobe he was. People are silly but real basketball fans understand the truth

And the fact that he remembers each and every thing that goes on is also crazy. He has a photographic memory. I bonafide photographic memory.

he is just one of them Lab babies like Melo said

@@damnbruh6246 Melo said that

I’ve always wanted him to play for Pop. That would have been amazing! Unlike the other legends, Bron has never played for a legendary coach.

What If he was drafted to the Spurs….GEEZUZ 🔥

The Lay for Pop through me off.. But I got chu.. He never played for pops.

@@d.balbas6952 lol appreciate you catching that, cause I confused myself when I read it over again 😂

@@themaadtitan9940 Or LeBron could have gone to the Spurs instead of the Heat the first time around. Lord have mercy on the rest of the NBA....

I’d imagine it’s similar on the research and time commitment basis (subject dependent obviously). Highly agree with your comment.

Definitely

100%. I was thinking the same thing. Glad somebody said it.

FACTS!!!

Cuts off abruptly at the end though

2018 playoffs he was 95 percent too if it wasnt for JR smith and george hill we may have had the best finals performance and playoffs performance (which already is maybe the best he did in 2018 that run he saved his team every round by hitting game winners) in nba history if they won game 1 (cavs) who knows what could have happened.

I shed a tear as well. Great video

I Swear he do

Thank you!

why speculate in something like that, what pleasure does that give you? its completely meaningless?

@@whitemagicsponge7190 😂😂 dang bro 👍

Ayyy thanks man!

@@NickSmithNBA Bro I remember watching your lakers mygm in 2k16 crazy you just replied to me.

He owned the NBA? I guess Dirk and Jason Terry didn't get the memo 😭😭💀

@@whodat787 Jason Terry got his memo inside a segment of the 3 compilations 😂🤣 (dont pretend you didnt notice)

@@sonder.4718 the irony of you telling me to stop using "cliché arguments", and then you come back with the cliché argument that Jordan couldn't win without Pippen 🤣

@@sonder.4718 well now you know not to assume things about people you don't know. I'm glad that I was able to teach another LeBron fanboy this valuable lesson. You're welcome kid

@@sonder.4718 you're terrible at guessing. You're terrible at discussing basketball. And you're terrible at being a "smartass" in RU-vid comment sections. Drop the act kid. I can tell that you're still a child, and i don't play with kids. So stop bothering me

Ain't no next Jordan dude.....TF is wrong witchu!?

Last Video you asked, if I wanted to see part 1, and I told you not to post part 2. But than you disrespected my clear order. There will never be a another Michael Schumacher, there will never be another Franz Beckenbauer, there will never be another Boris Becker, there will never be another Steffi Graf, there will never be another Bernd Schneider, there will never be another Muhammed Ali, and there will never be another Mischael Shordan. (it seems to be, that most of the greats are Germans🤷🏼‍♂️🥇🏆) All others are just Second, especially Le Boom. MJ took over and controlled the whole league, he builded the whole House … LaBoom just moved inside the house, started living in the basement, and moved up to the roof, but he never owned the whole house. Due to modern training methods and health care science, his career is longer, and so he will be able to have more points/assists/steels, but he never controlled the whole league like MJ did. GREATNESS means first of all !!Efficiency!! Efficiency means “winnings per career-year”. And secondly GREATNESS is measured in: “how many hearts have you been touched” … and we all know, who is by far the winner in that category. And by the way, I don’t know why, but LaBoom is one of the most hated greats that have ever played in the NBA … why is that?

Please do Russell Westbrook

@TheRealBandito quite please. Advantage Mister T

So he's so good and knows all this how come 4/6 in the finals I don't make no sense 🤔🤣😂🤣🤣 one thing about me I don't listen to bullshit 😂

2018 Lebron

Wilt in '62 and '67?

He was good, but have you not heard of Jordan?

@@baclava69 better career than lebron not a better player everyone knows this

@@lordazzeater8051 respectfully I disagree, James plays in an extremely soft league comparatively, not taking away from his achievements at all. Now imagine Michael's dominance in this league. It's night and day imho.

Supersonics ✊🏽

Much appreciated

I thought the Big Fundamental was perfect 😍

No worries! Glad you enjoyed :)

I'll try!

Jordan>

No

LBJ 🐐

That'd be Jordan

King

That shit crazy to think about

Interesting criteria you use. I look at the player's total offensive game plus their total defensive game. I rate those two equally. My GOAT rankings are #1 Chamberlain, #2 LBJ, #3 MJ, #4 KAJ, #5 Bird, #6 Russell, #7 Malone, #8 Big O, #9 West, #10 Kobe, #12 Magic, #13 Olajuwon, #14 Shaq, #15 Dr. J, #16 Stockton, #17 Petit. Different criteria, different results. My hardest part is comparing the player's peak versus their whole career. Bird's peak was equal to Lebron's I'd say, but injuries limited him after about 7 years in the league. KAJ's peak was almost equal to Chamberlain's, but he continued for 20 years while Chamberlain retired after 14. I think people underestimate the value of defense and rebounds, so my ratings try to take those into account. Unlike many, I don't care about NBA championships. I consider that a team achievement, reflecting the GM, coach, and supporting players, as well as the competition they faced.

1. Lebron 2. MJ . 3 . Kareem 4 . Magic 5. Kobe These men have reached untouchable status positions with the legacy they’ve layed down .

@@soulzy3596 Given that your GOAT Top 5 are all in my GOAT Top 7, our lists are quite similar. Please permit me to ask a you a question or three. 1) Do you use any particular criteria to establish "untouchable status" for these guys? 2) I rank TD and Wilt just above Kobe; for you do the careers of these two additional greats FAIL (in some way) to reach "untouchable status"?

@@AndyZach First, a bit more about my main criteria: Essentially, I am comparing, by position (first of all) each player's number of "Great Years". The reason I use the "All-NBA Teams" criteria is because the people who vote(d) each year are in the BEST position (most qualified) to judge each player's (relative) level of play each Reg. Season - AND, because there are so many voters, their sheer numbers basically cancel out any individual-voter biases - and, reviewing their collective annual voting, it amazes me how closely that comes to how I saw that season too. (And, imo, THEIR-collective voting definitely trumps in quality the MVP voting results (how the heck could the MVP-voters have ranked Russ over Wilt for the 1962 Reg. Season - as a prime example - there are a few other glaring ones too). Secondly, comparing my GOAT list with yours, the two lists are relatively quite close to each other. Given that, please assume that my questions to you that follow are the opposite of attacks. 1) By "Malone" do you mean Moses or Karl? 2) You don't have TD in your GOAT Top 17?? (or did you just forget to list him here when you posted your reply to me? 3) Assuming your "Malone" IS Moses, in your GOAT list, you've got CENTERS as: #1, 3 of the top 7 and 5 of the top 14 - have you considered that your ranking system MIGHT be giving undo precedence to centers? Lastly, as to your "... I don't care about NBA Championships ..." - I MOSTLY agree with you here. In my case, I take the WHOLE of each player's annual PLAY-OFF (not just Championship) performance as a secondary consideration - it was on this basis that, for example, I jumped MJ over Kobe (because I consider MJ's play-off performances so much greater than Kobe's (though his were great!) that MJ "overcomes" Kobe's advantage in the number of Reg. Season "Great Years" each had.

@@teddy1234599 Thanks for the details. Very cool. I hadn't heard of using 'great years' before. That partially resolves my conflict between evaluating a player at his peak and over his career. Regarding 'Malone' I meant Karl, the #3 all time scorer. I forgot Tim Duncan. I didn't even notice TD in your list. He'd be next to Malone. I don't care if you put him ahead or behind him. Karl was better offensively and Tim defensively. I don't limit my list by position as you do. Best is best whether centers or guards or forwards. I ask myself: Would this team be better with player A instead of B? This is where the defensive impact comes in and rebounding. Big men naturally have an advantage there.

2012-2013 was the first time around 2013-2014 they lost bcz the spurs shot the greatest % for the finals ever

Glad you enjoyed bro!
