And the thing about his team is that it all works around him, so if you can bring LeBron down to half of what he can do, his team will diminish by alot
Zook T facts he relies on athleticism completely , no real post game/footwork like Kobe or Jordan=not much of skill offensively and easier to guard by a strong enough player
Zook T and I'm so glad u mention that the team is built around him therefore u stop him u win. Most fans don't understand this. It's also why without him they don't win
Brandon Johnson totally and it came up last week. It was so obvious that he needed to play off the ball a little and drive the ball but he waits til game 4 at the end to use his size to get to the rim. If he had played 30% off the ball, he would have got to the free throw line more and caused GSW's defense problems - who knows what could have happened. But he needs to stat pad and so the offense always flows through him. He has no killer instinct and always looks for someone else to create the win. And still the talk show media idiots surreptitiously suggest he's better than MJ? Please, lol...
Lebrun just plainly has No skills at all. Shove&shove&shove the defender or travel. How could this kind of basketball player be hyped as the "best" player?
Everyone talks about how surreal and sensational LeBron was in this series even though they lost but this is a pivotal game and LeBron just mails it in. 0 points in the 4th quarter in the biggest game so far? Really?
***** shooting 30 something % means you hot locked down...plus going 6-24 with 5 mins left/OT in the finals means you got shut down at least scoring wise. Amd the warriors dissed him and only hard double teamed him twice in the first 2 games. Gaurded one on one! Most other superstars get way more doubles
+Isaiah YSL Doesn't matter he had 3 chances to win a 3rd game 2 were at home and Lebron does his usual Lebroning and chokes it away and then would go on to trash talk then lose at home in front of the people who's stupid enough to actually put their money on Lebron after he gets cocky.It's just like Pacquiao who kept talking trash and then we all saw what happened.
Isaiah YSL That's literally a challenge, not just that, he went out of his identity and instead of patting himself on the back he brushed his shoulders off as if that's what he's used to doing but it's not of Lebron to be over-confident and/or setting the record straight as if he has to remind everybody that he's the best in the world we already know that he's basically boasting.
He never got outplayed because he got guarded by 35 year old Danny Ainge, 35 year old Detlef Schrempf, 30 year old Bryon Scott and 35 year old Jeff Hornacek for his whole career lol. LeBron guarded by Kawhi and Durant for his whole career.
This demonstrates that Lebron doesn't have a reliable scoring move that can get him buckets down the stretch when his team's offense stagnates. At this stage of his career, he should have 2 things: (1) a virtually unstoppable move and (2) a counter to the unstoppable move.
Thats what happened if u dont have any footwork and consistent jump shooting skills. Lets see whats going to happen to lebron once he aged and not improving his game.
Mohamed Matan Exactly, his offensive skillset will be exposed against the Clippers with Kawhi and PG guarding him, because they are both great defenders and are long it’s for Lebron to just blow past them. Plus, he’s not a great shooter, doesn’t have a great handle, doesn’t have elite footwork and doesn’t go in the post enough. A player like KD wouldn’t be fazed by their defense because he can score from anywhere on the court at an elite level. It’s no coincidence Lebron is only shooting 37% in the 4 games against the Clippers
"I really wish His play can live up to his words!" it's not talking trash, it's a simple wish....so you don't comment any player or any other human being? I'm not saint and I will never be as good as a professional basketball player but I have my thoughts towards his words and so you can too. Don't judge me if you can't differentiate the two.
@@alstonhsu3804 you’re acting like any other superstar in that situation wouldn’t struggle scoring when their 2nd and 3rd option both have been injured. Remember when Gary Payton locked up Micheal Jordan in the 96 Finals after he was finally given a chance to guard him or was the just a fluke too.
+Kaarel Vomm but those 36ppg came with a 39% fg, and when iggy's guarding him he has an even lower fg%, so I guess you can say iggy locked down lebron...

+Kaarel Vomm Seriously, how many attempts he had to reach that amt of points? dont be fooled or blinded jus by the end stats. Take a look at the game stats too
Plus Ultra Negative Mega Kawhi averaged 61% shooting in 2014 because of Lebron’s D, and KD was in the 50-40-90 Club in 2017 because of his defense. He’s not a good defender.
my boy iguodala had lebron missing like 20 shots a game in the finals. my sixers miss that lockdown d on the wing. glad he got a ring. he was never supposed to be a number 1 option. but as a 3rd or 4th he will do what he do which is stuff the stat sheet
the man was probably fatigued, smh ya just hate on anything he does. lebron played most of the game, he has to score, rebound and pass to get his team involved and play defense smh haters are so annoying. if u hate lebron dont click his videos or make a hating vifeo about him, keep it to yourself
I didn't look at it as the best play in NBA finals. I saw it as the worst choke ever - still after more than a decade Leflop still can't shop at the dollar store, he has no 4th quarter.
Everyone seems to forget that a lot of star players get a lot of their points from when the team is still figuring out who’s guarding who look at shaqs Stats against rodman, it looks amazing until u realise they all came from when rodman wasn’t guarding shaq. it’s the same thing here in the finals
The next who says LJ is better than MJ or KB... I'll tell has NO IDEA of basketball. Lebron has some "things" that for me is a BAD player and bad shooter. Although in general he is good, he thinks he is better than he is.
+Carlos Jiménez MJ and Kobe are scoring machines..., they thrive off of contests, tight defenses and locking team defenses... So they are of a different mentality and mindset, Lebron is more of a go according to the flow type of a player in close out situations, although he has been quite aggressive at times and performed remarkably - Lebron is more like an orchestra conductor, whereas Kobe inspires with his solo heroic acts, One is a genius at using ordinary talent and elevating them and utilizing them with finesse, another is a genius at doing everything that it takes to win.., One is a Hunter.., another is a killer... Lebron reads the teams defense, he tries to set his players up and he attempts to take over the game by judging the game's flow and mood..., He is a tactical maestro..., Scoring is not his only approach and desire in a game.., He is not aggressive in his command of the game since he wants the rhythm to flow through him and into his teammates, he does what is needed of him in every scenario and purposeful moment... Kobe meanwhile sets the mood right from the start with his aggressive energy and laser sharp focus.., He is also great in late game situations because his game attacks with force and intensity..., Lebron is always divided about what is expected of him in late game situations, since he can close out a game in a variety of ways..., although if you take a look at all his games, he is quite masterful at being clutch... especially in big moments .... It's just that it is never consistent and hungry to the level of a Kobe, since that to him is not the most important thing ... He understands the team concept in his game style and he always seeks to engage his teammates... MJ and Kobe are different animals..., I believe that Lebron has a far better playoff career..., He has been very consistent and has always elevated his game come playoffs..., He has done great things for the game of basketball and has always been a treat to watch.., I just believe that his intensity during the final few minutes is missing since I feel that this would throw off his opposing defenders, He should attack them and not be so timid and take a long time to think things through.. He should play with his heart, guts and instinct.
+Carlos Jiménez hu r u to say he's a bad player n shooter? jesus did u even watch the finals? nobody came off 4 games in Finals for 40+ points not MJ, certainly not Kobe. 4 MVPs in 5 Seasons, not MJ nor Kobe got it
the defense on LeBron was mostly a team effort, but iggy was used to make LeBron feel as uncomfortable on the perimeter as much as possible and he did it well and when LeBron went into the lane the bigs like bogut and Draymond green would get physical and try to wear him down. still iggy deserves MVP honors
what happen to games 5 and 6 clips? i love watching andre lock up lebron, i wanna see how he stopped him in those games too not just 1 quarter..for research purposes
James was held scoreless in game 4 in the fourth quarter.. This was the pivotal moment in the series and James let a 6th man off the bench stop him to 7-22 shooting with 20pts AT HOME.. no goat would allow this on his own court
I think the thing about Lebron is that on the Cavs, they rely on him too much. During the playoffs, Kevin Love and Kyrie Irving got injured and Lebron actually carried his team to some victories but he just didn't perform well in clutch moments. Lebron is a great player but he just has some problems like everyone else. (And don't even talk about J.R Smith. All he does his jack up 3's)
Can you imagine if klay Thompson played good or even average or steph curry didn't have a bad start GSW were not at their best of course lebron will win splash brother were average this series
iguodala only locked him down in 1 quarter of 6 game 2015 finals series, Kawhi shutdown Lebron every quarter of the 5 game 2014 finals series. Remember who cried that it was too hot and had to be taken off the court like little b***h
Well like many have said this series would have ended differently if kyrie and love played. Think about it most of the shots lebron took were like contested and he really didnt have a consistent option to pass to.
When he gets the ball whilst being stationary and he has to score in iso he looks SO FUCKING MEDIOCRE its unbelievable. He doesnt have a psychological problem in finals. His problem is strictly about basketball skill in such situations. I 'm telling you if you make him pick up the ball when he is not already moving and put him 1 on 1 without help screens he moves as slow and as clumpsy as if he was Shrek.
Give this guy a break. He carried his team of scrap metal to the finals and went up 2-1 against arguably the deepest team of all-time. Iguodala was his worst possible matchup (not Leonard), being one of the brightest players in the NBA that has guarded him for his whole career and even played with him at team USA. Cleveland fucked up by standing around and not trying to screen him and get Klay or Draymond on him, but I mean, he has at least earned my respect
+PAN several other players played well against the Hawks at ECF tho, but then they're just too inconsistent. I mean in the first 3 games warriors just single coverage lebron, but found out that the other players weren't threats offensively. The only player that played well beside lebron that series was Mozgof(probably becuz of the small lineups kerr was using). Dellevedova? played well in the first 2 or 3 games but later on just flatted out, couldn't hit open jumpers. It would be a nice series tho if kyrie wasn't injured...
Funny thing is though Lebron complains all the time about calls but when it comes to the other team they dont really, im not just talking about the Warriors.
For the record, I don't consider LeBron to be the GOAT, but it is not entirely correct to say Andre Iguodala shut LeBron down. While Iggy certainly did a good job, you'll note he had a teammate lurking on every play, ready to cut off drives or employ a double team. This forced LeBron into tough, contested shots. The Warriors were able to employ this strategy because the Cavs didn't have a lot of other scoring options, and you'll note when LeBron passed, his teammate usually blew it anyway. In the 2016 Finals, the Warriors didn't have the same success with this strategy. When they tried it in 2016, Kyrie carved them up and when they didn't, LeBron was able to find a lot more success in true one-on-one situations.
it was the single most inspirational block, at a moment of stalemate in a game that could go either ways. Only people who hate it are lebron haters and warriors bandwagon fans.
Andre igoudola was injured his back made sure he couldn't guard cause before lebron averaged 19 6 turnovers and shooting 39 percent us cavs fan are lucky bogut igoudola were injured and draymond got suspended God was on our side
Iggy still guarded him very well and contained him in this series also when he guarded him. Game 6 he was completly ineffective and Game 7 he was still hurt. Just watch game 7, LeBron was having a great game up until Iggy started guarding him late in the fourth, on two straight critical/potential game winning possessions Iggy stopped James. So lets not act like James was dropping and schooling Iggy that series
Lebrons James downfall is his ball handling skills that need to greatly improved because he currently looks down for the ball to much. Also his footwork is awful, he doesn't know what to do when get gets stopped in a drive because he's so accustomed to going straight to the basket and laying it up or dunking. His overall game is great but the lack of those to skills is hindering him in this case and many others, also his teammates sucking don't help the situation.
+MrELMooSo he has no damn post game lol hes gotta atleast 30lbs and 2 inches on iggy but tries to throw his body on him smh not to mention he has no real jumpshot ... he can score easy when attacking but if you make him shoot he will miss alot . the cavs should of kept mozgov in cause he was beating the warriors bad ! i understand he was cloggin the lane but he was also doing his part ! lebron shouldnt have to attack to get his points ! he should of developed a jumper that he can rely on when he needs to
JR Smith is definitely a bigger threat than everybody on the court, but threat to his team Cavs, not Warriors. He literally averaged 11.2 ppg on %31.2 fg, %29.4 3p and %60.0 ft lol.
Andre is a truly professional player.

iguodala only locked him down in 1 quarter of 6 game 2015 finals series, Kawhi shutdown Lebron every quarter of the 5 game 2014 finals series. Remember who cried that it was too hot and had to be taken off the court like little b***h
Um.... Are you against or supporting Lebron?
@@sebastianvelez2770 Seems like he's supporting Kawhi
Who among you watch this today as we know the heat with iguodala meets again james in the finals.
😁😁
What do you think about a new nickname for Iguodala? i'd go with "Kryptonite"
Well like many have said this series would have ended differently if kyrie and love played. Think about it most of the shots lebron took were like contested and he really didnt have a consistent option to pass to.
the year after the year bron won be like swoosh game 5
Iggy and Kawhi are elite defenders, its not like his getting locked up by some scrubs
To be fair the entire warriors team packed the paint and lebron got a concussion and stickers after this game
0:40 wtf the ref doing there ?
iggy so classy and yes 6'11'' wingspan is not so bad
When he gets the ball whilst being stationary and he has to score in iso he looks SO FUCKING MEDIOCRE its unbelievable. He doesnt have a psychological problem in finals. His problem is strictly about basketball skill in such situations. I 'm telling you if you make him pick up the ball when he is not already moving and put him 1 on 1 without help screens he moves as slow and as clumpsy as if he was Shrek.
its because iguodala has a gold badge in perimeter lockdown defense
7:00 did he just said LJ is the best player un the world after curry getting the mvp? SAVAGE
I’ve always said lebron isn’t hard to guard but in this game they helping on driving and sometime doubling lebron
The all time leading scorer isn't hard to guard 😂😂😂
@@sportstalkonly1442But Lebron didn't try to adjust. He kept doing the same thing expecting it to work. That's not very high IQ 😂
@@fcarter3863 he missed his two best teammates.
@@sportstalkonly1442 Lebron always been like that
@@fcarter3863 man wtf r u talking about
Iggy played good defense on lebron..that said the league robbed curry his finals mvp
Give this guy a break. He carried his team of scrap metal to the finals and went up 2-1 against arguably the deepest team of all-time. Iguodala was his worst possible matchup (not Leonard), being one of the brightest players in the NBA that has guarded him for his whole career and even played with him at team USA. Cleveland fucked up by standing around and not trying to screen him and get Klay or Draymond on him, but I mean, he has at least earned my respect
+PAN several other players played well against the Hawks at ECF tho, but then they're just too inconsistent. I mean in the first 3 games warriors just single coverage lebron, but found out that the other players weren't threats offensively. The only player that played well beside lebron that series was Mozgof(probably becuz of the small lineups kerr was using). Dellevedova? played well in the first 2 or 3 games but later on just flatted out, couldn't hit open jumpers. It would be a nice series tho if kyrie wasn't injured...
🔒🔒🔒🔒 locked down lebron
He was clearly double teamed or a double team was coming with Iggy on him. Let's see what happens this year.
The players defense LBJ win fmvp. LBJ is a fmvp maker.lol
Watch Delly. He is playing so dirty.
Funny thing is though Lebron complains all the time about calls but when it comes to the other team they dont really, im not just talking about the Warriors.
LBJ isn't better than Kobe and MJ
And some people say lebron was great in this series LMAO
Dats a paddlin That’s a lie. Lebron was only shooting 36% this series. Most of his points were stat padded.
@@mrsky67 how those games were decided by 5 or less points
@@mrsky67 and if you watched the series you would know that Lebron went off and did what his team needed him to do
Club Shay Shay If he went off his team would’ve won. Instead he got locked up.
@@mrsky67 he had his 2 stars out. And after kyrie went out everyone thought it would be a sweep.
Lebron needs to rely more on perimeter shooting. Moving pump fake one dribble shot, etc.
can't shoot
+Goat Duncan yea his 3 pt shooting is ass, he had the worst 3pt percentage in the history of the finals or playoffs i cant remember. Behind Wilt
+Joe Cool Wilt didn't play when it was a 3pt line
For the record, I don't consider LeBron to be the GOAT, but it is not entirely correct to say Andre Iguodala shut LeBron down. While Iggy certainly did a good job, you'll note he had a teammate lurking on every play, ready to cut off drives or employ a double team. This forced LeBron into tough, contested shots. The Warriors were able to employ this strategy because the Cavs didn't have a lot of other scoring options, and you'll note when LeBron passed, his teammate usually blew it anyway. In the 2016 Finals, the Warriors didn't have the same success with this strategy. When they tried it in 2016, Kyrie carved them up and when they didn't, LeBron was able to find a lot more success in true one-on-one situations.
Name ya's Top 5 defensive players in the NBA right now.
He won't have that moment again lakers in 5
He's lucky that he's getting fake fouls from the referees
not that IGOUDALA was a great defender...more like LEBRON is overrated..
A lot of players have made LEBRON fail in the FINALS.
SINCE 2007, 2011...
cavs over here screaming and1 before they even start their drive lol
Goat my. A🤣🤣
Funny Iguodala will be guarding James once again both wearing different uniforms.
Do this this year iggy
Will he be able to stop Lebron again? Later in the evening is the start of the NBA finals 2020 the underrated Miami will fight the Goliath Lakers.
LeBron fears Andre after these finals.
1 year later James goes up and rejects his ass.
1 block isn't even close to all the steals blocks and forced turnovers iguadala has on his ass
it was the single most inspirational block, at a moment of stalemate in a game that could go either ways. Only people who hate it are lebron haters and warriors bandwagon fans.
Andre igoudola was injured his back made sure he couldn't guard cause before lebron averaged 19 6 turnovers and shooting 39 percent us cavs fan are lucky bogut igoudola were injured and draymond got suspended God was on our side
Iggy still guarded him very well and contained him in this series also when he guarded him. Game 6 he was completly ineffective and Game 7 he was still hurt. Just watch game 7, LeBron was having a great game up until Iggy started guarding him late in the fourth, on two straight critical/potential game winning possessions Iggy stopped James. So lets not act like James was dropping and schooling Iggy that series
+nomooon well i like lebron and I am a lakers fan so explain
he got distracted everytime he saw the face of iguodala he thinks he looks in a mirror.
Iguodala *"locked down"* LeBron with a help defender lmao
So the other guys on the court are not supposed to be involved? Tell us you don’t play basketball without saying it clown🤦🏾♂️
Where was this amazing defense by Iggy in 2016?
Injured back
Injured draymond had to be suspended and they didn’t have bogut
Lebrons James downfall is his ball handling skills that need to greatly improved because he currently looks down for the ball to much. Also his footwork is awful, he doesn't know what to do when get gets stopped in a drive because he's so accustomed to going straight to the basket and laying it up or dunking. His overall game is great but the lack of those to skills is hindering him in this case and many others, also his teammates sucking don't help the situation.
+MrELMooSo he has no damn post game lol hes gotta atleast 30lbs and 2 inches on iggy but tries to throw his body on him smh not to mention he has no real jumpshot ... he can score easy when attacking but if you make him shoot he will miss alot . the cavs should of kept mozgov in cause he was beating the warriors bad ! i understand he was cloggin the lane but he was also doing his part ! lebron shouldnt have to attack to get his points ! he should of developed a jumper that he can rely on when he needs to
This didn’t age well
@@kennethopoku226 why
People talk about how Andre did an awesome job on LeBron. Didn't LeBron avg like 40 pts in the finals?
Nope, 35.8ppg
On 36% shooting, that’s horrific, along with his assist to turnover ratio…
Of course its easy to guard him when no one else from his team mates is a threat.
JR Smith is definitely a bigger threat than everybody on the court, but threat to his team Cavs, not Warriors. He literally averaged 11.2 ppg on %31.2 fg, %29.4 3p and %60.0 ft lol.
