    In Lebron James 20 NBA Career he has created a bunch of Rivals, or has had rivals in the way of the one goal every NBA team has. A NBA Championship. So as Lebron James potentially goes into the twilight of his career in year 20 and now being the leader in NBA History with 268 games played in the playoffs and counting. I think it is a good time to go back and rank all of Lebron James biggest Rivals on a tierlist to discuss who Lebron James has had the hardest time with in the NBA Playoffs. Whether it be Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors, the Big 3 in Boston with Paul Pierce, or even his legendary Battle with the San Antonio Spurs!

      In hindsight I probably should’ve added the Bulls since he faced them 4 times in 5 seasons. But I think I mentally blocked them out since in 3/4 meetings they clobbered in 5 games. And as we know Lebron only faced a peak DRose in one postseason and the rest was Jimmy.

    Correction: The Raps got Ibaka in the winter of 2017, though they were potentially looking to sign him in the summer of 2016. Unfortunately, they lost Biyambo to the Magic as well, and they gave up Terrance Ross to Orlando as well to get Ibaka. So they lost some depth to get Ibaka, but it all worked out at the end of the day.

      @alecl9430 Год назад

      Came here expecting the Pistons, but I get the reasoning.
      However, for an extra bit of LeBron/Pistons history.. In the third to last game of the 04-05 regular season, Detroit beat the Cavs which I believe knocked them out of playoff contention that year (I was there, great game).
      So, I imagine when LeBron finally did pass Detroit by dropping 25 straight in that same building a couple seasons later, it may have felt particularly good to him.
      Great video!

      Pierce isn’t exactly a household name for a lot of people since he isn’t the flashiest. But he was always that guy in Boston and knew how to get buckets. I rewatched that game where he scored 41 on Bron and he makes it look so simple 😂. Mainly because he ain’t doing all the flashy stuff

Boston is the only team that thought they could beat lebron.

      As I defined in the intro a rival pertains to two groups going after the same goal and fighting for superiority. Yes Lebron may have not seen it that way, but for the other side he is the reason no one else can compete in the East. So while he didn't think of them as rivals, the other team did. I see your point, but I did explain what I said fully in the video.
