I get a feeling that this series was copied from Maximillion711
@@harrybthyname_ Go check the 1st movie I made for that series, and the 1st movie Max made for his series, and then revoke your defamation on me
Best player ever and most interesting career.
Man idc what anyone says. The best version of lebron I've ever seen is 2018. This is definitely his athletic prime tho.
I agree. Lebron might not have been destroying people with his athleticism in 2018 but his performances were still insane. 2018 playoff Bron was the goat for sure
@@SurvivinginCreative He didn’t rely on his athleticism as much as before. He was smarter, only using it when necessary like during crunch time
So many instances in his career that should've ended in a ring, he had a somewhat unlucky career in that he should have 5 to 7 rings by now if not for unfortunate events, i think destiny just didn't want a new goat that's just my opinion.
No cap
You know you are the Goat when you have different kinds of PRIME.
His left handed layup package is probably the best ever with his size and speed is insane plus he’s always hit big threes in so many huge moments
i just remember he was absolutely relentless driving to the rim in 2012. and no one could stop him
This man is really a fucking video game character no other way to put it lol. Will never be replicated in our lifetime. 🐐
Lebron was LEGIT possessed. He was like 26 going on 27 here i believe. At that age he was legit unstoppable
The GOAT player (perhaps along with Michael?) at his age The best player in the world back then
@@zhugelianges he was untouchable even till his last year on the Cavs. If he was Leonard or Durants age he would be besting them
@@myemail2418 I don't think Durant or Leonard have any chance beating Prime LeBron. Yeah, really no chance
@@zhugelianges i agree i think he wins everytime
6"2 Jason Terry ( age 33 ) outscored prime LBJ in the 2011 Nba Finals.
Jokes on people who says Lebron can’t play in 80s or 90s era. Lebron would bulldozer everyone in the era
Yeah niggas be trippin, Pierce was hacking the shit out of him and he was still cooking. Or the time he was scoring on Rasheed Wallace and Ben Wallace against detroit.
Shawn kemp will destroy lebron if he play in mid-90's
@@christianalvarez4048 Lebron too fast too strong. Lebron's speed rivaled Allen Iverson's speed from one end to the other.
He would be one of the strongest and dam show be the fastest...
@@christianalvarez4048 Shawn Kemp? too slow
buffest lebron he could literally drive to the paint anytime
The Greatest Inside scorer ever, and probably one of the GOAT
@@zhugelianges Even Skip Bayless said it.
It still angers me that the cavs wasted the first 7 years of this guys career
But it made him a man fast he learned alot on the fly min own his own 🙏
I feel it tho they should of put some pieces around him
If he played like this in the 2011 Finals, the Heat would have won
no shit
@@youngerudit2524 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Young LBJ’s athleticism was out of this world 🌎🔥
Thanks for your comment, bro
Greatest of all time to me
How is the Game 6 in Boston not on here though
Funny how everyone thought this was a superteam lol I guess the nets are a super saiyan team
Those celtics has 4 superstars and spurs..okc has kd,westbrook,harden and ibaka
I think might be the most underrated LeBron. You can make the case he should of been both MVP and DPOY similar to how you can make it in 2013
Miami Lebron was a beast , a different animal who played his heart out on both ends of the court and was devastating....
Whatever happened to Lebron's floater game? Looked quite reliable during this phase of his career.
2018?
he literally ended the raptors roster with floaters just a few seasons ago. well i guess the raptors are grateful for that seein how it turned out
@@Max-me9ol the raps glad he not in the east no more lol
Cap
2018 he was killing it with floaters too but I think lebron adjusts his game depending on what was needed. He was going up against a lot of bigs in the paint in 2012 like roy hibbert, kg, serge ibake, perkins, tyson chandler so rather than finish through them (which he's capable of), he just opted for floaters as to not bang up his body so much in the paint. It worked perfectly because in the finals he went full throttle and was finishing and double clutching like crazy to get his layups off. If he spent the entire playoffs doing that, he would have gassed faster throughout.
This version of lebron could have dominated MJ’s era. Can defend all 5 positions, clutch at crunch time, monster athleticism and finish, and most of all he can give you 28-30 ppg in minimal minutes
not to mention court vision and willingness to pass. he literally did everything at all nba level
You should spare some time to watch Jordan v.s. Lebron by DangerProduction.
Doesn't make sense. He couldn't dominate Kobes Era and Kobe couldn't even score 40 pts in the 90s. Kobe has already said the 90s were way tougher to play in.
@@jeremytucker8853 he did dominated individually lmfao in his second season averaged 27ppg then 3rd season 31ppg iitc
@@jeremytucker8853 Lebron brought a trash ass 2007 Cavs team to the finals all by himself. Something Jordan never would never do without Scottie. Plus Kobe played limited minutes back in the first few years because of his old coach before Phil Jackson. So your argument is now invalid
8:21 Bron said "gimme that shit"
this has to be the most unstoppable anyone has ever looked
I swear I ain’t seen Bron do a floater since he left the Heat
holy shit. now that I think about it, you're right. Maybe it's a Coach Spo thing xD
He had a game winner in the 2018 playoffs using a floater
@@absolutejazz1676 He doesn't mean that running out of bounds and throwing it off the backboard shit. He means penetrate the inside and floating it straight up like Tony Parker, and Steph.
Lol I think it might have to do with small ball. There are no longer that many traditional shot blocking centers in the paint, so he doesn’t have to use the floater tbh. He’s strong enough to finish through those small ball centers
This is PRIME LBJ 👑 🐐
Wish he would have participated in atleast 1 dunk contest.
This was lebron in his prime 🐐
Thanks for your comment bro!
Miami lebron is the greatest thing to happen to the NBA. I'm so glad i got to witness those glorious 4 years.
can u imagine if they went 4-0 man his haters gonna lose it 🤣
@@JD-zj7rh they could have honestly. But unfortunately, the Mavs were a different breed in 2011 sweeping Kobe and the defending champs. The spurs were clicking hard with Kawhi and Wade was declining
Yo he's moving like 2k omg. I remember each moment.
Bro this was a great compilation. BUT How in the world you left out game 6 versus Boston. That was the series after trailing 3-2. The assassin King James 😶🌫️😏😶😑 30 points first half an 45 in total
08/09 mini fro Bron was the most athletic Bron Miami Bron was the best all around as far as skill set and defense Bron return to the Cavs I think was the best playoff run (2018) he had, mentally just seemed like a different player, even I didn’t appreciate it till years later lol 🐐 🦁
How did you NOT include Game 6 of the ECF, lmfao.
He did DURANT SO BAD NOBODY TALKS ABOUT THIS
THE ONLY THING THAT CAN STOP MR. JAMES...IS MR. JAMES HIMSELF.
FAX!!!
We love you the GOAT
Simply as that
👑 James
everyone forgets he’s 6’9 and at his highest peaks he weighed almost 260 no one had the talent or athleticism like LBJ 👑
Lebron Best to ever do it 💯
One of the GOAT candidate
@Gerald Taylor How
@Gerald Taylor KD not even better than Steph tho
@Gerald Taylor 2 of the top 5 players but Lebron #1
@Gerald Taylor lebron has same mvps and finals mvps as them 3 combined😂
Maybe not his best season, but most certainly my favorite season of his. 2011-2012 lebron had a certain hunger in him. He even worked on his finesse game more as u cud see he wasnt bulldozing in the paint as much. Its weird tho for some reason he has kinda digressed back to doing it lol 🤷🏾♂️
I agree..he pretty much perfected that floater this season and then he just stopped using it, 🤔
@@georgebrown1575 Ooo yeaaaa i remember them floaters he was using that year lol 😆 😂. Used it vs celtics in playoffs and vs Oklahoma city in da finals 👍🏽
@@bobbyvalentino6773 yep..you can see him using it throughout this video, that one handed floater..he had it down packed, I don’t understand why he stopped using smh

Hes a Sharpshooter now in his 18th season
absolute god mode
PRIME LeBron is Unstoppable!
Babied KD that series
To all the people who say he only wins with stars… This man had no Chris Bosh in that pacers series… Down 2-1 with just Wade and a couple role players Haslem, Battier, Chalmers, Miller… Mind you Mike Miller had back problems at the time even tho he hit some 3’s here and there.. But they beat Granger, Hibbert, West, G Hill, Lance, Collison, barbosa wit Young PG.. that team was stacked. Shows how Great LeBron was. Also had to play BOS next series w Bosh missing a game or two… and played “yes they were young” but KD who was playing like an MVP at 23… Russ who avg like 22-6-5, wit a 6th man of the yr who should be starting on other teams in Harden, with a league leading shot blocker and dpoy running Serge Ibaka, wit championship level role players in Perkins, Thabo, and Fisher… but man I guess he cheated the game 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Remember there was no Bosh for most of these playoffs
Jordan was great but what Lebron bring to the table give you goosebumps damnnn
This why k.d doing all this running from team to team...got tired of losing to lebron and curry...and decided to team up with curry...
Neither one could mess with Bron. That's what's crazy. They had to team up to take that man down. 🐐 if I do say so myself.
he would have won a ring with OKC sooner or later, if he stayed. he wasnt patient though, decided to leave and for many will be remembered as traitor
@@maripyter And will be remembered as a top 3 scorer of all time so stop hating
@@jahleelx9270 Bron needed Wade and Bosh to get past the East, stop it.
@@greatnessscaled7652 he needed them to get past the Celtics. Instead of old Shaq and broken down Ben Wallace. U stop. Fuck u talking about.
This video is BANANAS💯💯💯
9:38 crazy how Bosh is blocking Ray Allen, and then just a year later he’d to passing it to the very man that he was against. so crazy to think of
A LeBron that doesn't have to do all the play making is the most dangerous LeBron.
We’ll see the upcoming season
@@xKingKB7x You didn’t see the Miami days? 😂
@@reeseromeo6 Yea I’m saying hopefully he can go back to those days or close
@@reeseromeo6 He need that quick first step. Idk how hard it’ll be now because of his age but he should try to lose so weight so he’ll be quicker
The chase down blocks are my favorite.
Special thanks to Al's Highlights, and GD's Highlights and really give credit for them for uploading such amazing clips for us to use and watch, thanks a lot!
Lebron gets killed for 2011 as he should but he don’t get credit for taking what happened and becoming a better player after that. He was not fair after that.
On of the best duo LeBron and dwade
King LeBron James 👑👑👑👑👑
Geez KD was getting absolutely torched
Bron was a beast in Miami
There's always that one high pitched screamer near the microphone in every big game
Best king LeBron James 👑👑👑👑👑👑
Greatest of all time
Joey Crawford with the theatrics 🤣
How do you make Lebron 2012 playoffs highlights and dont include game 6 of ecf against Boston? 45 15 and 5
Legoat 👑
I love LeBron when he was playing in Miami heat
I didn’t watch brons Miami reign much at the time, was too damn jaded lmao. But damn his 11-12 season is up there with 2018 bron
every video featuring LeBron / Kobe / Jordan has so many "this is true GOAT" comments...
Wait till he retires and the documentaries come out. Ppl will see and understand why he the goat.
LeGOAT 💪👑🐐
did you know name of beat or son ull name in intro this video?:) thx
The best
True
LeBron = BEAST!
James is the goat to those who ddnt watch and see how the true goat mj plays
Goatee Bron was a menace
They say this guy isn’t better than Jordan and I say watch tape 🐐
The year he shot less 3 pointers. Him and Wade vowed to attack the rim rather than shoot this season.
LeGoat is always on prime bruh
god damn !
only that game.... MJ's game is exciting and thrilling in everyone of his game regular season, playoffs or finals. Mike is the real GOAT. not the flopper
James against Boston/pacers= 🐐
This version of LeBron the Lakers wish they had 🔥
Honestly, props to Otis Smith. Man made his bed and slept in it.
I know winning a ring for Cleveland was legendary for him, but do ya'll think if Bron stayed in Miami along with Pay Riley, that he wouldve won more rings?
That all white headband he wore in the finals was a Jordan headband inside out 🗣 bro was on a mission
East Finals Game 6 @ Boston??
For all the talk about lebron not being able to guard KD, KD has never been able to guard LeBron either 😂 they're both freaks of nature nobody could ever actually stop them, you just gotta hope they have an off night or that you can limit them somehow n
Right. Nobody in the history of the nba can guars kevin durant at his peak
MJ would
@@krishhjame9382 mj not tall enough
When basketball was fun to watch
He was all word 2013
This is his best season.
True!
Actually looking back, I'd rank it number 3 behind 2009 & 2017. His woes behind the 3pt line were more apparent in 12 especially in the playoffs, but his post game was at it's apex this year.
@@joceja23 Played 0 defense is a terrible take & he was KD's primary defender. You're thinking of the 18 finals, where Hood and JR got more minutes defending him. He 100% did penetrate the defense like he did here, the man had his career high in dunks that 17 season.
@@joceja23 Bro, what are you talking about? Dude got inside enough to set his career high in dunks.
@@joceja23 True, but in those examples you're comparing bigger, more athletic rollers to smaller wings/guards. 12 LeBron, if anything, played more like the former considering he ran PF. The 17 Cavs were worse defensively too, lessening LeBron's transition opportunities. Yet he still managed to get that many dunks on top of higher assists, even after adjusting for pace.
Lol he went ham in the playoffs this year!!!!!!
He broke KD in this season
This is the most efficient Lebron James.
Goat tlga dapat yn lakas
Kingjames
Goatee Lebron is the greatest variation I think we’ll see.
Now tell me MJ,KD,CURRY and KOBE play like that?those celtics players is solid players
20:00 Battier be lookin like, superb hairline King James! 🤣😂
this lbj reminds me of karl malone that grew up idolizing mj and magic. Built like a tank!
It seems like Miami Lebron was the most athletic mf in the history of the game
KD got worked that series
14:56 good luck and fortune to the person who can tell me where tey have seen this shot before (hint: Its one of the most iconic shots of his career)
Before the LeBronTo era, there was the Indiana James
I just want to go on record to say this because I am a Michael Jordan fan wholeheartedly I stay in Illinois so that'll never change to me Mike is the goat because of his mentality on the court but I'm looking at LeBron James just viewing everything his character on the court I'm not judging him by these numbers really that everybody keep coming up with I'm judging him on his game because that's how you choose who will go is they can come up with every number that they can but a person can get them numbers and just be getting set up with good shots but would you consider him to go just cuz he got open no you wouldn't you would judge him on how he can transition under pressure and how he can give pressure I will most definitely say LeBron is the New millennium goat I hope he come out of that injury that he's in I think with his ankle or knee or something like that something is going on but he needs to lay back take that score in title and play a few games with his son and if you told him good enough excuse my bad language if he told him well enough he'll be passing the torch to his son instead of somebody else coming along trying to carry the torch that's all I got to say LeBron is a great player our best as we have it right now in this era it's a torch everybody people shouldn't get caught up on who's the greatest overall just count how many grapes and who picked up the torch I see LeBron he got the torch and he just running with it he doing a good job and I just want to add I do think he would have been a great player in Mike's error but he would have probably undoubtedly probably been the second greatest player in Mike's era because Mike has the ability to not want to lose it's a gift and a curse for him but I do think LeBron would have did pretty good pretty damn good if I could say without getting censored I love to have seen him go up against Karl Malone Dennis Rodman Charles Barkley and even Dr j in his later days I would have loved to have seen what he would have done to get around the Pistons Detroit bad boy baby cuz they had an impeccable lockdown defense unless you can come up with something and just make the shot happen like Mike used to that's why they came up with the Jordan rules you can see it and Chuck Bailey's eyes when Jordan stole the ball do it in stepped out of bounds ran back in bounds they threw it to him and he did that half backwards turn wrist flip on Bill Lambert Chuck Daly just look like Lord have mercy what are we going to do he is embarrassing the league he literally went on record and said that but LeBron take that title in everybody can just shut up I would love to have seen him play Lynn Bias the number one pick for the Boston Celtics before he died tragic but I would love to have seen him play laying bias and how that game would go
I'm a fan of both but am a lebron guy at heart. Hes from my neck of the woods so I'm biased. I think his versatility sets him apart from everyone. He could literally play 1-4 at extremely high levels. Hes win championships at pg, sf and pf. Whatever position he decided to play, he was automatically near the top at that position. Hes so intelligent that its like he's playing against the game itself at times, like the whole other team, coaches and all. I think lebron has great vision anf passing but so did Mike. They just have different styles. Lebron is capable of scoring at will because he's so.hard to stop at the rim. He could guard inside and out at dpoy levels while Mike was a great perimeter defender. All that to say I think brons versatility makes him the best I've ever seen while mikes drive, mentality, makes him the greatest. Though to be fair, mike got rest that lebron never got. Lebron is the most scrutinized athlete I've ever seen especially coming into social media. Bron just seems completely over it at times did I didn't see that from mike. I think people try to understate brons greatness this late into his career as longevity when it has mostly been sustained excellence. Noone has played this well, this many years into a career. I wish we could've seen them play at the same time. Compsring stats and accolades across eras is apples and oranges. They never played the same competition or under the same rules. I think they'd be ever better in each others eras if that makes sense
With all due respect to Jordan's era, LeBron's era is better. Just look at the league right now. There is at least 10 SUPERSTARS (not all-stars) in this league. Besides, the physicality was better back in the day and they allowed hand checking, but LeBron is 250 pounds and would run right through it. Also, the physicality back in the day is severely overrated because of how the Pistons played (especially against MJ). Again, the physicality back in the day was better, but slightly.
@@TripleG12398 okay before you ever comment back with a comment like that you say that the guys here or better just cuz you built better. Don't mean you play better. Compare all these people that you're talking about to the elders of the game back in the 80s and the '90s and watch. They didn't look as physically physique as these other people but they were better in a much tougher error. See back then. It was superstars on teams but they didn't go recruiter superstar. Try to go beg him to come play with them or any of that. You just worked with what you had got and if that dude become a good player then that's what happened. So respectfully, LeBron is a bomb he can't win unless he has a bunch of superstars around him and it's been proven. Even when he has that he still can't win. Everybody always try to go to when Jordan was losing in the '80s to magic and and Larry Bird and Isaiah Thomas and all those other teams. All those teams had multiple stars on their team. They beat the bulls but they never stopped. Mike, the team he had those teams were so poor as far as basketball knowledge and physicality on the court. Those guys were let me say they just wasn't the best players to have but they never stopped. Mike, he just kept coming until he got that fresh rookie out of college. A draft pick not. I'm going over here and I'm going to throw a lot of money his way if he come to my team a draft pick who just so happens to want it to be a great player too. And he went under the wing of Mike and next thing you know they took over the NBA but by no stretch of the measure did they go out trying to recruit people. If that was the case they would have went and got shot. Kemp charged Barkley Isaiah Thomas you know they just stacked the deck against people. No they didn't have to do that. They just worked with what they had. And next thing you know Mike just went crazy. Him and the boys and his guys stepped up. They wasn't no high listed high ranked players, but Mike encouraged them to want to win. He wouldn't accept nothing else from his teammates. He didn't care. How great they were because of any moment. Anybody in any sport can become a great player if they put in the work. So respectfully, he's still a. Bum
@@TripleG12398 You say these guys are better. You say they're this. They're that I'll put any team you got right now up against and I'm not even going to say Chicago because that's a no-brainer we already know they get blew away. I put them up against the '80s Celtics the '80s Lakers the 80s pistons. I guarantee they won't make it. You'll find that these guys can't play basketball and to say that it's a tougher league now when you can't even blink at a dude and you get a file but back then you got whooped up on like y'all was in a hockey game basically and the numbers were still better or about the same as the guys. Now bottom line the league is weak. LeBron shows you is weak. He flop until they just give him his way. Who does that? Where's the greatness in that? Where is the greatness and shying away from contact because you don't want to go to the free throw line LeBron cuz you're not consistent at the free throw line. If you're the greatest you ain't scared of contact you going to get the shot no matter what now. Is he a big physical specimen or not? He playing like he got on panties. We already called them in a dress. This area is better but Russell Westbrook is wearing a dress. Almost all of them carry these. Her love ain't no other way to say it. All of them carry purses but this league is better and tougher. It's harder error. No it's not bro. You better do your homework. Do your homework cuz right now you got to f in basketball one-on-one
@@TripleG12398 You better go back in Jordan's error and count how many Superstars was around. I think you really should. You said it's at least 10. Well back then every team had a superstar. Every team had a superstar back then. Every team had like two or three except Mike had to wait until he got a fresh out of college. Rookie and with that he turned the league around. He had already was dominating players. His team just wasn't good enough to win but they never stopped. Mike
how did he come down with that pass at 5:07
