  • LeBron James is a 4 time NBA Champion, but before that he was being called the savior of Cleveland. While he may not have won a championship during his first run in Cleveland, I broke down the film to show exactly why he may deserve more credit than he gets.

      He is THE PERFECT example of why athleticism isn't everything in basketball, Skill matters more. He is not the most skilled player of all time but may be the most athletically gifted. I will die on the hill that skill>athleticism even though they are both important. That's why MJ=GOAT and Kobe>LeBron.

    I've had the chance to work on some top-notch basketball channels like "BASKET BALL CLUB," "JUMP SHOT," and "SWISHED" during my time at my previous company. I've really honed my skills in this niche, and I believe we can create some mind-blowing content together that will leave your audience in awe.

    Bro videos are underrated I’ve been saying this for awhile how Lebrons athleticism is main reason he was so dominant add in his longevity and staying injury free. Obviously a no brainer but what you covered in other videos MJ and Kobe had to use different skills vs just raw athleticism to score

    Honestly, lebron was a freak of nature. He had early MJ athletics in a tank of a body, but moved like a robot. Teams started to predict his 1st step and he adjusted by passing better and forced his team mates into set positions. His passing gets sloppy when his teammates miss imo. Watch his losing playoff series.

    I hate when people get made at lebron for leaving and when Gianni’s stayed they was happy with comparing their situation. I think if lebron in 2009 was surrounded by shooter in every position like Gianni’s I think lebron would at at least win 2 chips because it took 5 players building a wall to just contain him and lebron would still go off so imaginary if lebron had shooter that he could trust that the whole don’t sag off of and another reason is he is a way better passer than Gianni’s ever was. half of the playoff losses do be on Gianni’s most of the times.while I think in lebron case it was mostly his team fault.I think lebron in 2007 through 14 was a better athlete than Giannis and comebine that with a better jumper better handles and better play making.lebron just had better all around skills than giannis and with a way better iq.Gianni’s run people over while lebron how dribble back and re driver.

      scoring is not the only skill in basketball and by your logic kyrie is the goat and Kobe was better than MJ. MJ was heralded as Air Jordan and Black Cat for his athleticism, dude was jumping over everyone triple pumping fakes and blowing by defenders. He doesn't need to do two consecutive between the legs with hesis in between to a spin only to be contested for a jump shot like Kobe. You are calling one of the NBA's passing/bbiq savant not skilled because he can't gracefully shoot as well as those two lol

      This is just ONE example of a false narrative being pushed to benefit modern athletes, specifically LeBron. It's funny how the narrative around LeBron's basketball IQ ends when he plays defense. As a 39 year old shell of his former self, Michael Jordan was still a relentless defender with one of the most disrespectful blocks in NBA history recorded, especially when you take into account his age and 3 year hiatus from professional competition

      @@alsymphony7868 MJ was and is the GOAT because he had no weakness not because he was athletic, monster defense, monster offense he was the best or one of the best at both ends, with perfect fundamentals, no unnecessary dribbles, no wasted movements... Kobe was a carbon copy of that dude, he tried to be MJ but his body wasn't as gifted. Lebron only has his athletics, you can clearly see how clumsy he was and still is, all he does is charge defenders, no shooting, no threat in the mid or long range. He had some good passing but he was more of a ball ditcher not a passer, he passed every time he couldn't handle the rock, he wasn't looking to pass, he was looking to score and you can tell.

    Had no help? But he had the #1 seed two straight season. You might want to go back and look at Lebron’s playoff numbers from 06’-11’ where he choked in every loss. Yes he scored alot of ppg game but he choked in the 4th quarter and was a poor free throw shooter and a turnover machine. Where are his jump shot? Just a bull in the china shop, especially when the league changed the defensive rules stating inn 06’, Lebron is one demential
