Eh. Legend. But not the greatest

@Critique Everything how is it hate cause im not slurping the meat off lebrons tip my boy? chil lyour horses

Ima be honest this goes to another player for me, but lebron is definite a legend but I don't see him up there with the greatest. I never saw him as a true ball player I just saw someone that played within the rules of the NBAs version of the WWE. When I think of ball players I think of Jordan, Kobe, Iverson, Steve Nash, nawitzki, magic, etc etc etc.

Ya but longevity is more of a testament to how he treated his body and kept it healthy, most top draft picks are in a situation to score from the get go, they just don’t stay healthy or have the longevity of determination of king James

@@dragonballs4143Lebron definitely a lab experiment

Luka maybe in his entire basketball career might go for more than LeBron . He's played profesionally since 15 and is still healthy and hungry for the game. He may be 24 but he has a decade of pro basketball under his belt and started playing it since he was a little kid.

@@Celon. you forget about lebrons entire career ?

The world will not even be caring about NBA at that point. A civilizational collapse will be happening soon. Thereafter the resulting dystopian world will be a very different place.

Some players get lucky with lack of injuries. Lebron is like that, as was Jordan, who in his prime, only had 1 major injury, and that kept him out for like 60 games. For whatever reason, some guys are almost immune to them, while others get bit the by injury bug.

@@JohnDoe-zr8pc lebron takes/spends ungodly amounts of money on his body and physical upkeep. It’s not just a stroke of luck.

@@JohnDoe-zr8pc Jordan went to play minor-league baseball for a couple years which might have saved him from further wear and tear as a basketball player.

One of my favorite Lebron facts is that when he got injured in 2021 for a couple months he only had 7 points in the game. However, as he was limping up the court they passed him the ball in the corner where he hit a one legged three to get 10 points and then subbed out. Also when he got ejected the one time in his career against the Pistons, he had exactly 10 points 😂

@@trueballer6880 hes just built different

Jxmmy is the goat of yt nba content but i disagree with this one. have you noticed stokton and malone's games played numbers. They are two examples of players that played non stop for almost 20 years. Think about the medical technology developing. Taller players last more bc they have this advance. Also think about the evolution of 3pt line. Look at the all time top 10 points leaders and notice how many 3pts half of them have scored. You see where this is going. One day, not so far from today a guy will step in have the playing longevity of today and even more as the med will provide (combined with his athletic state). Also when the organisation will choose the 4pt line will be there. i think Lebron will probably be the first breaking the 40,000 pts limit but the next one may break the 50,000 as we already have guys like steph, luka, trae, damian etc that are capable of scoring from such an extreme distance today. So what is expected is that one guy who will have the bag, distance scorring ability, physicallity and motivation. All that are in the hands of the nba organisation. If they wanna let the next point leader to be they will make rules that lead to softer defence and more productive offence. If they don't they will make the defence even harder. At this point i think non of them are necessery as the game have the attention needed. But economic crises may lead to a bad turn. If the game needs more attention meaning more money then something extrordinare have to happened and it will. And besides the bad ref calls i dig Adam Silver's work as much as jxmy's. Nba is in good hands.

@@user-zd9vy4nw1e lets have a healthy discussion on this one, you have a great point on medical advancement and with better nutrition these days, if there is one kid who is genetically good with good nutrition, proper training and with medical advancements that can omit injury, the chances of him becoming the next scoring leader will also be steep, cause he needs the psychological state as Lebron, the love and determination he has on the game to maintain and play for 20 years, other factors that affects current players like kyrie is mental state, and for this there is no "advancements" that can help, it's all based on how much the player wants it, and let me tell you my friend, is even rarer than the best genetics can give you to have a mentality like that, what are the chances that someone that can play well, play long and maintain not only your skill, but your mentality for decades. Not in our lifetime I suppose, and I hope that happens because it will be a phenomenal player to watch.

I was thinking the same!! 🥶

@@user-zd9vy4nw1e yes medical technology will help. But you still need to invest a lot of time and money in conditioning and taking care of their bodies. Also genetically Lebron is just a physical freak.

Jimmy was EASILY the best

I bet the player who'll do that is already born. See you in 40 years ;)

@@GuillaumeRx Doubt it. Unless the future of NBA plays are like the recent All-star games, Lebron's record will never be broken.

​@@JR-wj9bh I doubt it as well, don't worry. But the thing history shows, especially with sports, is that: We always think records cannot be broken, because it seems impossible when it happens. I bet you most people thought nobody would ever surpass Kareem when he broke the record. Yet, 40 years later, here we are. Does not matter how long it takes, there is always one guy that does it. It's human evolution and progress. I'll give it to you though, the chances are very slim, and it does indeed seem impossible.

​@@JR-wj9bh I mean, there are kids entering the league now, that shoot more 3's than Curry ever did at the same age, with pretty much the same efficiency. Of course, Curry will still be considered the GOAT shooter by many people, even if (when) someone breaks his 3Pt record. Just because he impacted and changed the game, and did it better than anyone before, when nobody was doing it. And Lebron's record is sure way harder to beat. But still, the evolution of the game makes it so that there are probably a few players that will beat Curry's record in the next 15 to 25 years. This reminds me of a fascinating story, of a man you may have heard of, called Roger Bannister: Before 1954, most sports specialists thought no human being could ever run a mile in less than 4 minutes. People wanted to do it since 1886, and nobody had ever succeeded, in 70 years of trying. Because it was "impossible". Then, in 1954, against all odds, Roger Bannister does run a mile in less than 4 minutes, for the first time in history. The interesting part is that, after he did, a lot of athletes around the world started doing it as well. The same year, in 1954, someone beat his 3:59 time. The next year, three other guys beat them... In the same race. And a thousand followed until now. Roger Bannister had just made the impossible, well, possible. I understand Lebron's record is a different situation, but my point is, someone probably, eventually will beat his record. But I might be wrong, and only time will tell :)

I want to live long enough to see that, and I'm only 18😂

And he got so many haters it's sad let the man be great!

How many times has he played all 82?

​​@@blaque5582hey won't answer your question.. nor will the acknowledge that Kareem didn't shoot a bunch of 3s, didn't have the highest turnovers in NBA history, and Kareem has won more championships (on the same team) as leading scorer.

@@rahiemthomas5617 he’s only played all 82 once, but I don’t get what’s so bad about that. Also Kareem and LeBron can both exist as two great all time scorers, Kareem is still recognized for his greatness

It's pointless to argue who's the greatest. Just enjoy it. Not everything needs to be argued. Lebron has delivered on being one of the greatest ever.

The truly unbreakable records are ones that the current rules and meta of the game will not allow a player the opportunity to break it. Those are two good examples of it.

Because not all teams can compete in the postseason and not all series consists of the same amount of games, so sweeping a team impact your playoff total.

@@tarikwalters854 sweeping a team means you get to play another whole series though. And a player good enough to break the scoring record should certainly be going to the playoffs about every season, especially in today's league where if a player is unhappy where they are they just leave.

@@tarikwalters854 there should be some merit of dragging your team to a playoff. Probably only 3 players in the history of basketball could will that 2007 Cavs team to the playoffs.

​@@yamamancha, Truth.

​​@@yamamancha huh? It would start a conversation over what is better, winning more in less time or winning less in more time. Also if you count LeBron's first 14 seasons, MJ has more points. On top of that, LeBron has played over half his career in an era where they score more points, games don't finish 90-80 anymore, they finish with 20-30% more points scored. Adjusted for pace no player comes close to MJs numbers, not even James Harden and he has been the best scorer of this generation about to retire.

Well said!! Agreed

Hopefully this record makes him reevaluate his bad take on the scoring title.

This is finally like the context of Stockton’s assists. I hate Stockton, though.

"Just longevity" might be the worst attempt at an argument in all of sports. It's genuinely one of the very best things for an athlete to have.

@@Banned4Life exaclty I don’t get it, it’s not like LeBron is the only player to have played for 20 seasons, last I checked, Kobe, Tim Duncan, Kareem, Vince Carter, Dirk played 21, Karl Malone and Stockton played 19 and so on and LeBron has now surpassed them while ALSO being top 4 Assists leader, and no player NOW is even on a reasonable track to top LeBron, there’s a point where “longevity” is no longer a criteria but excellence is.

There's another side to this story, that's that through out history major breakthroughs in technology and sports both occur around one another often.

Sports a similar thing occurs where when it's time it's time and many hit the new plateau separate of one another. I love the story you've shared here and am familiar with it

It just takes someone to break the mold

The 4-minute barrier is a bit mythologized. Those within the sport considered 4 minutes to be less impossible and more overdue when Bannister made his run. If not for WWII culling and distracting a generation of athletes, plus Sweden's Anderson and Hagg receiving bans from competition, the barrier most likely falls years earlier. Until those two events the record was falling incredible fast, from above 4m 10s as late as 1931 to 4m 1s in 1944. Not exactly indicative of a record with a mental barrier. Compare that to the 100m and Long Jump, which saw Jesse Owen's records remaining unsurpassed for 20 years since the mid-1930s in disciplines that drew much heavier competition.

I think the difference there is athletic capability evolving for a chance to do the extraordinary in one race at the height of a runner’s career. The scoring record isn’t just about the game’s evolution, it take’s timing, skill, and luck to be that good, that young, and for this long. It’s like Cal Ripken’s game’s played record.

@@efisgpr he surpassed MJ with less shots taken and higher percentage for your knowledge. While being 4th in All-Time Assists, and the #1 Scoring leader in playoff history 💀

​@@efisgpr ok?

@@efisgpr 🤡

@@SharksPro123 Jordan though has a higher PPG avg. during the regular season and the playoffs and the way in which Jordan got there overall is just as if not a little more impressive (3-peating... taking time off&steppingb ack- coming back and basically 3-peating directyl thereafter- and a 3peat is just incredibly hard to do- just ask the Warriors... luck that non of ur guys gets injured plays a significant role ofc. )- not to hat on LeBron- Jordan will remain the more iconic player I believe but however you value Championships/Final MVPS LeBron's maybe the more decorated player (mostly bc. of longevity ofc. but still)

A list which is normally swarmed by guards.

@@aldrincayanan9500 And non-scorers.

​@@aldrincayanan9500crazy shit

​@@MrClebophdGOAT shit

He is a scorer lol wtf 😂 where are people coming up with this? Bruh if you want the definition of a pass first player and not a score-first guy then go watch John Stockton. I can’t believe people are still saying this shit. Crazy how people bought into this shit in the first place 🤣

I remember he was the youngest ever to hit 20k points against the warriors I was back in 6th grade lol

It naturally shifted to more offense because of the rule changes. For example, making hand checking illegal in 2005. Less physical means more scoring.

@@djbrysonnot really because back then you could hand check but couldn’t double off guys so it was 1 v 1 every play on the perimeter

@@djbryson hand checking is bad defense anyway

I always taught my kid when he got into sports that defense players are THE unsung heroes in all of sports. Imagine a poster shot of Reggie Miller denying Michael Jordan the ball. You'll never see it, but that's how the Pacers nearly dethroned the Bulls in the epic '98 eastern conference finals.

Can’t really include anyone who guarded Jordan because Jordan got the most preferentially biased treatment of any player in nba history. I’ve watched almost every game of Jordan’s, the amount of fouls that were called on his defender without actually touching Jordan are ridiculous. If you out a percentage on that amount I’d say about 60% of Jordan’s foul calls are phantom calls. Possibly higher.

@@Dudewheresmycar189 True, Jordan would have bought the refs all new cars so long as they gave him the calls. As Jeff Van Gundy put it, he was a con man as much as an athlete, or something like that. But what amazed us most is the dude was clutch went it counted the most. No con man could make all those high pressure shots without also being best baller. We'll never see the likes again.

@@Rick-the-Swift Jordan doesn’t even have the most made clutch shots lol it’s not even close.

the goat

I got chills from this appreciation comment fam😅😅 you are 100% right, JXMY, we gonna love u and appreciate the work u do forever

Exactly!!!!!

Yes. Hung 48 on Prime Billups and Wallace Detroit 25 straight with no bag. Lol

Having a bag is irrelevant, two of the last all time leading scorers (Kareem and Wilt) didn’t have a bag.

@@jaydot4956 what is a bag define that. Is it a bunch of superfluous moves on your way to a bucket? Cause the stat sheet don’t count style points.

says @@jaydot4956 , a guy who can easily score because he knows the definition of a bag . your dedication to discredit players is really up there ... Einstein level delusion
