all thats left is for LBJ to be a player coach...win or lose....in the modern era if he reaches a finals as a player coach...he will cement his name with the bill russell discussion as a gold standard TESTIMENT to GAME
Say whatever you say... but for the first time LeBron James showed the world an NBA player can be in control and call the shots.... and that’s powerful
I always considered it odd how people dislike him moving teams when most people are considered Labor and he was doing to management what management does to labor. It's crazy to me that because a GM created the big 3 of Boston it's less offensive than Miami's big 3. Because the Lakers and Celtics were able to draft or trade for talent it's less troubling than a group of guys deciding to play together.
You mean LeBron the one that jumps from team to team like a h03 that jumps from guy to guy. LeBron got tired of riding Wade's D.. ..K,so let me fly to Cleveland and ride Irving's. LeBron is the king of ring chasing. Now he's riding Davis D....K. Remember that.
@Ayuub NurI brought up the civil war obviously, its called a comparison. You saying the fans weren't cheering KD's injury is as dumb as saying the civil war wasn't about slavery. See what i did there?
3rd time in NBA Finals history an All-Star has faced his former team: -LeBron James (Lakers) vs Miami (2020) -Wilt Chamberlain (76ers) vs Warriors (1967) -Ed Macauley (Hawks) vs. Celtics (1957)
Thats a dumb Stat to look at......especially this is a COMPLETELY different team than 2013-2014 Heat.........if this was 2015, then it would be something to marvel at.....but saying this 6 years later is STUPID!
truth be told Lebron had already learned that which you speak of .. Lebron received that lesson when he was a teenager when "everybody" benefited off of him *except* for him .. Pat Riley was just 1 of many, who tried that trick with Lebron .. Riley found out the hard way that he TOO would receive the same admonishment that Lebron gave all those OTHERS from the past 🤣🤣🤣
Lebron has been showing he's a GREAT business MIND/MAN every since he walked away from a $10 MILLION check from Reebok as a teenager, and also empowered his friends to become legitimate threats in the Sports Agency and in the entertainment spaces. "Nothing personal it's just BUSINESS"
I'm a heat fan, but it's funny how Riley talks about loyalty but when it was time to let wade go, he pulled that trigger. It's always seems to be on the players to be there loyal ones
That’s fair. Wade took a discount when he opted out under the understanding that it would be used to fill in the pieces the roster needed. And they didn’t do that and gave Bosh a max long term deal. And then of course not giving him a deal that Chicago gave him. That’s the way it’s always done and probably will remain that way
Like him or not Lebron is one of the best players of all-time. 17 years in the NBA and he's still playing at a high level. First ballot HOF and he's on the verge of getting Championship #4.
Devin Pettit I honestly don’t see the Nets winning. KD just won’t be the same player after the injury he had, he’ll still be great but I don’t see him carrying a team the same way he used to. And Kyrie is just a toxic Bradley Beal who had a chance to get a ring with Lebron.

@Martin Shkreli with that reasoning and logic that you just use Miami should have five without LeBron, since Pat Riley is so good at constructing teams correct?
@Martin Shkreli I have to cut the line there that sounds like delusional hype for Carmelo, Mr Anthony throughout his entire career has done nothing close to being a championship contender.
@Martin Shkreli just a side note Pat Riley has been in charge of the Miami heat organization since 1995-2020 and has three championship rings to show for it, to say LeBron should have stuck with the heat organization doesn't make sense if throughout all that time he was only able to get one ring after they got d Wade then shaq, then two more when LeBron came with Bosh.
Teams love to play the loyalty card when they want to control a player and make him stay. but they forget alladat when its time to trade a dude without his consent/knowledge. LeBron fed Riley a teaspoon of his own medicine. dont hate the player, hate the game
There was a scene in Episode 8 of The Last Dance I enjoyed. Before MJ talked about his Kerr fight, he talked about how his newer teammates were not part of the 1st threepeat. I wish Kawhi had half of MJ's leadership.
Jordan could never leave his mentor in Phil Jackson, goes to show how Phil was the true reason behind all those bulls championships and why Jordan was too scared to leave the tutelage of his mentor and try and win a ring without him at the in of the 98 season. Lebron was brave enough to go try do it on his own, and better yet his hometown. This is why lebron is the greatest basketball player and greatest basketball story of all time.
Somehow you got to get this comment to Skip Bayless, Shannon Sharpe, and Stephen A Smith ...this could be the best and most hated comment on basketball EVER!
God Son imagine what Jordan’s story would have been if after Phil Jackson gets fired Rodman and Scotty gets traded and he never goes to the finals again😬
The only things to measure.. MVP, Finals or Super Bowl MVPs, and rings... Brady: 3 MVPs + 4 SBMVPs + 6 rings = 13 LeBron: 4 MVPs + 3 FMVPs + 4 rings = 11
Brady: 3 cheating scandals Also Brady: gets caught everytime You Pats fans are the worst, pretending your dynasty is legit when it's clear as day you cheated for years. Yall the Astros of the NFL.
He really did tho... from 2014-2020 heat coulda easily added 3 or 4 more chips in those 6 years alone.. however in reality Lebron by himself has only captured one
@@4purs they had Whiteside for those good 2 years so LeBron would have easily made him a lot better than what he was and they had Josh Richardson tragic and couple of other fellas in Lebron could have recruited some people there
Two things I got from this video... 1. the finals just got a lot more interesting (LA currently leads 2-1) & 2. Lebron will be a NBA executive after his NBA career is over.
Please!!! He did not do it for Cleveland, he saw an opportunity to have another super team and not wait a year or 2 to build him another. Why u think he left Cleveland? Kyrie left him and he knew nobody was coming there so he left for LA. Always the easy rout. All his rings where by cheating the game. The guy is not a champion, he had to be carry by other super stars!!! But yeah his fans will say otherwise. 😂😂
@@verz3649people still have this type of lebron hate like it’s 2010? Bro he’s the all time leading scorer and came back from a 3-1 to a 73-9 team. People can’t appreciate greatness it’s wild
Indeed. LeBron even has to tell everyone that it's one of the biggest games in his career to make the championship run seem more legitimate, that he actually had to fight hard even with top player AD on his team. AD does 50% of the work. Lebron does perhaps 30%. Just look at game 3. When AD didn't show up, they lost. AD was the deciding factor in the game. People are saying Lebron deserves FMVP because he's consistent. Well yea, he's consistently the second best player of the team. But that doesn't earn him the FMVP. The fact that they have to do all these just to make Lebron seem like the more impactful player is just embarrassing. Lebron should give the FMVP to AD if they happen to win and not put a stain to his name by accepting the FMVP if they happen to win.
I told my pops that Giannis should go to Miami. He insisted that he should go to the Mavs since they have cap space. Either team would be a great move for Giannis
LeBron completely disrespected Pat Riley. End of story. I would rather have Pat for 20 years than LeBron for 20 years. Pat won 7 rings from 1982-2013 but constructed three different franchises. Each one made the Finals.
Finished watching Episode 8 of The Last Dance. Excellent episode. If the Clippers want revenge on the Lakers, watch that episode. It's revenge and redemption for Michael Jordan. In it, he says, "Payback is a MF."
MJ put his all into every game, every season, for his team, for the fans. Clippers are have 2 divas leading them who want to take days off whenever they have an ouchie.
LeBron is a genius. He may not be a better player than Jordan, but he is definitely better at team building and understanding the intricacies of building a champion. LeBron will win multiple championships as an NBA owner.
All LeBron had to do was tell Pat Riley what he was going to do next so Pat could be more prepared planning out the next few years for Miami. But instead, LeBron ditched Pat like he ditched Cleveland twice.
Why are they pushing Pat Riley vs Lebron James? Pat Riley wasn't even playing in the court he is the GM of Miami and what ever their past is its all business everybody move on. Can't it just be HEAT vs LAKERS. Lbj was not the only one playing the whole lakers team same as the heat. Media always makes it into a drama. This is basketball not a drama.
Lebron had a promise to keep and he did it. That Cavs title is worth like 3 titles in Miami. That must have been the first time somebody told Pat "NO".
A couple of years into Lebron's time with Miami, he and some other players tried to get Spoelstra fired; Riley stood up for his coach and let everyone know that Riley was in charge of the team, and not Lebron or any other player. So, it's not that surprising that Lebron wanted to go somewhere where he thought his input into issues usually reserved for a team's GM would be more "appreciated."
I think the Bucks should absolutely prevent Giannis from ever getting any sort of meeting with Pat Riley. Assign personal bodyguards, surveil his home, hack his gadgets, whatever to prevent Riley from getting any sort of access.
Pat Riley did ditch the Knicks out of nowhere too but DWade should've known beforehand what LeBron was going to do instead of opting out which cost him $10M.
These awards are biased The mvp isn't given to the best player and only includes the regular season and the winner has to be alone on is team and have the best record ...kobe was robbed of many mvps by nash same as lebron Also kobe and lebron faced way better competetion than jordan like the spurs with 4 hall of famers warriors celtics big 3 ...etc These awards don't determin who the better player is if so bill russell is the best ever Robert horry got 7 rings too ...that doesn't mean he is better
Kawhi needs to talk to his teammates and push him to get to that championship level he's been on. He needs to be more vocal and strict. Yell at his teammates. Be a perfectionist. MJ was that and that's why he's the GOAT.
I'm willing to give Lou Williams one more chance. If he disappears again, Clippers will just move him or he should just retire. I don't think the Lakers would want him back anyway. He's too small. Such a defensive liability.
I'm only willing to give Lou Williams another chance because his offensive skill-set is very high and he's a decent playmaker but still turnover-prone. But if he disappears again, he's out. He needs to only think about REDEMPTION.
Lebron got pat riley two rings..... so he should be good. Lebron had to go bring one in Cleveland Miami n Lebron should've got 4 rings if they took it more seriously but lost to Mavs n spurs And now he about to beat pat riley heat for another ring. Bringing lakers a ring. Lebron showing the godfather.
If the Bad Boys didn't keep beating the Bulls for three straight years, Bulls would've never threepeated. If Orlando didn't beat Chicago in 1995, there would never be a 72-10 Bulls. Got to feel that pain, Clippers. No pain, no gain. 🏋🏿
If ESPN decided to update that list because that was only for 20th century athletes, then LeBron would still not be in the top 5. Babe Ruth, Muhammad Ali, and Michael Jordan are more iconic than LeBron will ever be.
"How LeBron out-Godfathered Pat Riley" LMFAO!! Man, Riley is a GM with REAL Power and influence of an actual franchise. Lebron DEF has sway and pull, but don't confuse the two....
Well wen lebron left, the god father couldn’t make the playoffs 😂😂. Lebron beat Riley at his own game. Didn’t pat riley leave the knicks when they were starting to get old and suck lmao. I don’t see wat was wrong with lebron leaving the heat to go home.
@@bibo5854 He planned on a future with Bron staying and he didnt. He retooled and are now back in the Finals, when so many other teams havent been to a Finals in YEARS. Sounds like a good GM to me...
Independent360 I would have agreed with u 100%. The problem is that in a few weeks lebron will have made 5 finals and won 2 rings since he left Miami. That’s just as many championships as he got on the heat. Pat Riley said that leaving Miami would be the worst thing lebron ever did 😂😂😂. But lebron in a few weeks will have more rings than the heat as a whole franchise 💀💀
Well if this is shocking it's not, once that report came out that LeBron was bitchy about not having his friends on the plane LeBron knew from that point just like Tim Duncan with doc rivers 😂 no? Lmao 🏋️😚🤟✌🏿they leave (regarding to LeBron) he's the reason the league is what it is today the perfect ambassador.

And they try to say my boy not cold blooded, he the whole basketball package with the business mind frame.

@Martin Shkreli with that reasoning and logic that you just use Miami should have five without LeBron, since Pat Riley is so good at constructing teams correct?
@Martin Shkreli are you saying four with him or four without him I think there's a mistake in your sentence
@Martin Shkreli I have to cut the line there that sounds like delusional hype for Carmelo, Mr Anthony throughout his entire career has done nothing close to being a championship contender.
@Martin Shkreli just a side note Pat Riley has been in charge of the Miami heat organization since 1995-2020 and has three championship rings to show for it, to say LeBron should have stuck with the heat organization doesn't make sense if throughout all that time he was only able to get one ring after they got d Wade then shaq, then two more when LeBron came with Bosh.
Teams love to play the loyalty card when they want to control a player and make him stay. but they forget alladat when its time to trade a dude without his consent/knowledge. LeBron fed Riley a teaspoon of his own medicine. dont hate the player, hate the game
There was a scene in Episode 8 of The Last Dance I enjoyed. Before MJ talked about his Kerr fight, he talked about how his newer teammates were not part of the 1st threepeat. I wish Kawhi had half of MJ's leadership.
Kawhi's game is somewhat reminiscent of MJ, but his intangibles are nowhere close. Shows you how much those intangibles matter.
Let's go lebron lets get this championship for kobe
Kobe don’t need it, he got his own and earn them not like lebron jumping from team to team while forming super teams. That’s cheating the game 😂😂
Jordan could never leave his mentor in Phil Jackson, goes to show how Phil was the true reason behind all those bulls championships and why Jordan was too scared to leave the tutelage of his mentor and try and win a ring without him at the in of the 98 season. Lebron was brave enough to go try do it on his own, and better yet his hometown. This is why lebron is the greatest basketball player and greatest basketball story of all time.
Somehow you got to get this comment to Skip Bayless, Shannon Sharpe, and Stephen A Smith ...this could be the best and most hated comment on basketball EVER!
God Son imagine what Jordan’s story would have been if after Phil Jackson gets fired Rodman and Scotty gets traded and he never goes to the finals again😬
Ya’ll come up with any ol bs huh.
suntansuperman26 I know right like they really be reaching for stuff
Lebron James is a man that knows his worth..period. If Jordan did at his age then Nike would be working for him.
EXACTLY!
*foreal4real*
Wrong patrick ewing had the best idea hes his own brand lebron is still nike Jordan is still nike Ewing is ewing lol
The only things to measure.. MVP, Finals or Super Bowl MVPs, and rings...
Brady: 3 MVPs + 4 SBMVPs + 6 rings = 13
LeBron: 4 MVPs + 3 FMVPs + 4 rings = 11
why only put 4fmvps?
Brady: 3 cheating scandals
Also Brady: gets caught everytime
You Pats fans are the worst, pretending your dynasty is legit when it's clear as day you cheated for years. Yall the Astros of the NFL.
Finals MVPs are about the least important thing to measure, even Iguodala won one against Lebron:
2015 (points, rebounds, assists, steals, blocks):
Iguodala: 16.3 - 5.8 - 4.0 - 1.3 - 0.3
James: 35.8 - 13.3 - 8.8 - 1.3 - 0.5
Neither was Kawhi's performance in 2014:
Leonard: 17.8 - 6.4 - 2.0 - 1.6 - 1.2
James: 28.2 - 7.8 - 4.0 - 2.0 - 0.4
@@Ometecuhtli *exactly*
The heat traded Dwyane Wade for god sakes. If they weren't loyal to him, why would you demand any player to be loyal to any franchise?
I wondered who told lebron he was making the biggest mistake in life was
THEY were wrong
whoever *it* was 😂
He really did tho... from 2014-2020 heat coulda easily added 3 or 4 more chips in those 6 years alone.. however in reality Lebron by himself has only captured one
Not 4 not 5 not 6 not 7 > 3 rings
David Ebanks how? Bosh got blood clots and wade declined incredibly fast with his injuries. They would’ve had to rebuild
@@4purs they had Whiteside for those good 2 years so LeBron would have easily made him a lot better than what he was and they had Josh Richardson tragic and couple of other fellas in Lebron could have recruited some people there
Two things I got from this video... 1. the finals just got a lot more interesting (LA currently leads 2-1) & 2. Lebron will be a NBA executive after his NBA career is over.
It’s not being cold blooded going back to Cleveland. It was doing what’s right and no one should knock the guy for that
Please!!! He did not do it for Cleveland, he saw an opportunity to have another super team and not wait a year or 2 to build him another. Why u think he left Cleveland? Kyrie left him and he knew nobody was coming there so he left for LA. Always the easy rout. All his rings where by cheating the game. The guy is not a champion, he had to be carry by other super stars!!! But yeah his fans will say otherwise. 😂😂
@@verz3649people still have this type of lebron hate like it’s 2010? Bro he’s the all time leading scorer and came back from a 3-1 to a 73-9 team. People can’t appreciate greatness it’s wild
The match up is so bad they have to hype up the game by talking about pat riley 😂😂😂
you mad?
True lol but don't get it twisted the Heat still goated in east
Cuz your clippers lost
Indeed. LeBron even has to tell everyone that it's one of the biggest games in his career to make the championship run seem more legitimate, that he actually had to fight hard even with top player AD on his team. AD does 50% of the work. Lebron does perhaps 30%. Just look at game 3. When AD didn't show up, they lost. AD was the deciding factor in the game. People are saying Lebron deserves FMVP because he's consistent. Well yea, he's consistently the second best player of the team. But that doesn't earn him the FMVP. The fact that they have to do all these just to make Lebron seem like the more impactful player is just embarrassing. Lebron should give the FMVP to AD if they happen to win and not put a stain to his name by accepting the FMVP if they happen to win.
You can’t out godfather The Godfather
Exactly, he’ll just bring a superstar to Miami to win many more rings.
Legodfather*
Well the godfather bout to get swept by the son of godfather
Godfather iv.......
Coach Rob Newell 🧢
"no more smiling faces with hidden agendas" 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Pat cooked
Riley is a smart cookie, and he would have found a way to get LeBron more than the two rings he's got since leaving the Heat.
Exactly. I’m ok with the 2nd Cleveland stint. He fulfilled his promise. But he should’ve went back to the Heat after that. Easier conference too.
2011 Final against the Mavs still haunts till this day.
No way the Heat lose the finals and Pat Riley DOESN'T get Giannis this off-season
If the Heat lose in the Finals, they are not guaranteed to get Giannis and who would you trade him for again if you are the GM?
I told my pops that Giannis should go to Miami. He insisted that he should go to the Mavs since they have cap space. Either team would be a great move for Giannis
He beat pat on his own game dayum
LeBron completely disrespected Pat Riley. End of story. I would rather have Pat for 20 years than LeBron for 20 years. Pat won 7 rings from 1982-2013 but constructed three different franchises. Each one made the Finals.
LeGM is the goat GM
Finished watching Episode 8 of The Last Dance. Excellent episode. If the Clippers want revenge on the Lakers, watch that episode. It's revenge and redemption for Michael Jordan. In it, he says, "Payback is a MF."
MJ put his all into every game, every season, for his team, for the fans. Clippers are have 2 divas leading them who want to take days off whenever they have an ouchie.
LeBron is a genius. He may not be a better player than Jordan, but he is definitely better at team building and understanding the intricacies of building a champion. LeBron will win multiple championships as an NBA owner.
Chris Bosh look crazy
A lot of people need thank Lebron
This Is the kind if content we need more of
Bruh just imagine if Lebron stayed in Miami
LeBron knew Miami was self destructing and he left that was a smart move
@@cruelmaxtv Players were lining up to come to Miami so he would be ok.
@@libraalibaba Well Deng and Dragic weren't taking a pay cut so they certainly couldn't add them with Lebron on the team.
All LeBron had to do was tell Pat Riley what he was going to do next so Pat could be more prepared planning out the next few years for Miami. But instead, LeBron ditched Pat like he ditched Cleveland twice.
FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACTS. I've been screaming this from the top of my lungs. L
@God Son How many chips and how many finals appearances they bad comparison
I think Doris Burke is in love with LBJ
👀
*most people are*
HATERS, hate THAT fact
He’ll Retire with a Least 5 Rings. Well Done 🐐🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆👏🏾👏🏾
I want a last dance but LeBron carrer.
not that title for Lebron .. Zion's the one who says > let's dance
Why are they pushing Pat Riley vs Lebron James? Pat Riley wasn't even playing in the court he is the GM of Miami and what ever their past is its all business everybody move on. Can't it just be HEAT vs LAKERS. Lbj was not the only one playing the whole lakers team same as the heat. Media always makes it into a drama. This is basketball not a drama.
The art of the Ring Chase that's what it is and he has got real good at it lol
Riley made some comments during LBJs departure and return to Cleveland . Bron wants to beat the Heat. This is a chess m
Loyalty...
Wade taking less to preserve the cap, thinking the heat would mAke him whole.
Wade goes to Chicago.
D Wade torpedoed his legacy
@@selfishstockton6123 how so?
Brian Windhorst spit’n facts.
Lebron had a promise to keep and he did it. That Cavs title is worth like 3 titles in Miami. That must have been the first time somebody told Pat "NO".
A couple of years into Lebron's time with Miami, he and some other players tried to get Spoelstra fired; Riley stood up for his coach and let everyone know that Riley was in charge of the team, and not Lebron or any other player. So, it's not that surprising that Lebron wanted to go somewhere where he thought his input into issues usually reserved for a team's GM would be more "appreciated."
Riley just brought a team with rookies bam and jimmy who is not all star in the west to the finals when no1 expected him to, i would say hes fine.
Let’s goooo LeBron let’s get this for Kobe
Riley in Knicks ownership....what if
The Knicks organization are just stupid.
He left the Knicks without any warning, he wanted to go to Miami. Then he lost to the Knicks three times in a row in the playoffs.
Bret Maverick No, you missed the part on this video when Pat Riley specifically told the Knicks that he want total control of the franchise.
@@BSmokeyGaming he still wasn't expected to leave like that and he quit through a fax lol
Brian is right
I think the Bucks should absolutely prevent Giannis from ever getting any sort of meeting with Pat Riley. Assign personal bodyguards, surveil his home, hack his gadgets, whatever to prevent Riley from getting any sort of access.
Pat Riley did ditch the Knicks out of nowhere too but DWade should've known beforehand what LeBron was going to do instead of opting out which cost him $10M.
Riley should’ve never said what he said in that post season media interview lol that probably made LeBron wanna leave even more
I'm not a "business man!" I'm a "business" man! And I own 💯 of me so every move I make is "business" "man" 🏀💰🏆🌮🍷
*EXACTLY*
Pat riley is like Don Corleone or Scarface
LeBron is like Chili Palmer
He's still no Jordan ...
Lebron learn how to play the game and he's winning he learned what's it really about winning and keep winning
Kobe: 1 MVP + 2 FMVPs + 5 rings = 8
LeBron: 4 MVPs + 3 FMVPs + 4 rings = 11
MJ: 5 MVPs + 6 FMVPs + 6 rings = 17
MJ accomplished more in half the time.
why put 3mvps not 4?
If the lakers sweep/win this series against the heat, AD will be the finals mvp
@@JirenTheGrayOfUniverse11 🤦♂️
These awards are biased The mvp isn't given to the best player and only includes the regular season and the winner has to be alone on is team and have the best record ...kobe was robbed of many mvps by nash same as lebron
Also kobe and lebron faced way better competetion than jordan like the spurs with 4 hall of famers warriors celtics big 3 ...etc
These awards don't determin who the better player is if so bill russell is the best ever
Robert horry got 7 rings too ...that doesn't mean he is better
Owari Da Jiren said who?
First... everybody bless up
cringe
🙏
That “somebody” who told LeBron that me made the biggest mistake is bouta show when we see the heat take the chip in 7🔥
Kawhi needs to talk to his teammates and push him to get to that championship level he's been on. He needs to be more vocal and strict. Yell at his teammates. Be a perfectionist. MJ was that and that's why he's the GOAT.
How has the yelling and head slapping being working for him in Charlotte?
That’s like Shi fu and Ty lung story in gong fu panda
Put some respect on LeBron period.
Bron don’t owe that oldMan anything. Its all business.
One thing fellas I can tell you don't give up. Live to be an old man. Old men run the world. Remember that.
I'm willing to give Lou Williams one more chance. If he disappears again, Clippers will just move him or he should just retire. I don't think the Lakers would want him back anyway. He's too small. Such a defensive liability.
Let me make 1 thing clear lebron has never and will never out god father pat riley
Is this from a 30 for 30 or something. Where can I see the whole thing
Wow so fascinating....... Lakers in fo
I'm only willing to give Lou Williams another chance because his offensive skill-set is very high and he's a decent playmaker but still turnover-prone. But if he disappears again, he's out. He needs to only think about REDEMPTION.
Lebron got pat riley two rings..... so he should be good. Lebron had to go bring one in Cleveland
Miami n Lebron should've got 4 rings if they took it more seriously but lost to Mavs n spurs
And now he about to beat pat riley heat for another ring. Bringing lakers a ring. Lebron showing the godfather.
Anything to make a story lol I wonder what the tag line would have been for Boston vs Lakers.
Sparked the heats run 😂😂😂.. alright ESPN
@ESPN,You guys could've told Chris Bosh he as something under his lip before starting or am i seeing wrong and it's just a lip stud?
If the Bad Boys didn't keep beating the Bulls for three straight years, Bulls would've never threepeated. If Orlando didn't beat Chicago in 1995, there would never be a 72-10 Bulls. Got to feel that pain, Clippers. No pain, no gain. 🏋🏿
If ESPN decided to update that list because that was only for 20th century athletes, then LeBron would still not be in the top 5. Babe Ruth, Muhammad Ali, and Michael Jordan are more iconic than LeBron will ever be.
Lebron could've had wayyyyy more then four rings had he stayed in Miami
And Lebron is going to cut himself a 4th ring. That's all folks.
pats just a manipulative taker. lebron is too smart to fall for that bs
And LeBron ain’t? Whenever he feels he can’t win, he either leaves or the whole team gets traded.
MVPs + Finals MVPs + Rings
1. Michael Jordan = 17
2. Bill Russell = 16 (no FMVPs his time)
3. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar = 14
4. LeBron James = 11
"How LeBron out-Godfathered Pat Riley" LMFAO!! Man, Riley is a GM with REAL Power and influence of an actual franchise. Lebron DEF has sway and pull, but don't confuse the two....
Well wen lebron left, the god father couldn’t make the playoffs 😂😂. Lebron beat Riley at his own game. Didn’t pat riley leave the knicks when they were starting to get old and suck lmao. I don’t see wat was wrong with lebron leaving the heat to go home.
Yahya Habibi plus lebron is a player with power that can leave your franchise and it becomes a lottery team
@@bibo5854 He planned on a future with Bron staying and he didnt. He retooled and are now back in the Finals, when so many other teams havent been to a Finals in YEARS. Sounds like a good GM to me...
yeah lebron can not influence a franchise or command power LMFAO just like how he recruited AD LOL
Independent360 I would have agreed with u 100%. The problem is that in a few weeks lebron will have made 5 finals and won 2 rings since he left Miami. That’s just as many championships as he got on the heat. Pat Riley said that leaving Miami would be the worst thing lebron ever did 😂😂😂. But lebron in a few weeks will have more rings than the heat as a whole franchise 💀💀
THIS VIDEO SHOWS LEBRON JAMES IS THE KING. LEBRON JAMES IS THE GOAT TOO GREATEST OF ALL TIME.
No Bam or Dragic again for Game 3. Kobe died. This 2020 was meant to be for the Lakers to win the Kob-id championship.
"KOBE! THIS IS FOR YOU!"
Delivering cryptic messages through the media...
LeBron: "Cleeeeeeeeveland. This is for you"
I wonder what that might mean
Well if this is shocking it's not, once that report came out that LeBron was bitchy about not having his friends on the plane LeBron knew from that point just like Tim Duncan with doc rivers 😂 no? Lmao 🏋️😚🤟✌🏿they leave (regarding to LeBron) he's the reason the league is what it is today the perfect ambassador. LeBron sparked both Miami and the Lakers so he's bringing another team once again to the finals 😂 along with his ghost 👻 team the Miami Heat 😭
Game three?
Irony that management doesn't think a player is loyal enough. Irony...
Just to make one thing clear, nobody, and I mean NOBODY, out-godfathers Pat Riley
