Deep down, LeBron knows Jordan would’ve kicked his ass. Mentally toughest big-game, big-moment competitor ever vs one of mentally flimsiest. #phonyGOAT
If I’m a GM and I see a fucking 6’9 270 pound two-way machine that can do everything and also be the most athletic freak on the court at all times should be quite obvious pick unless you’re a dick sucking hater
LeBron on entering the NBA without a Hall of Fame teammate, like Magic Johnson had with Kareem:
“I wasn’t privy to that. MJ spent his first couple years without a Hall of Fame teammate. But then, boom, they drafted Pippen, and boom, here comes Phil Jackson.”
LeBron on joining the Heat:
“I wanted more. I wanted to win at the highest level. It’s no different from someone in business going from one place to the next place, because they get a better opportunity to be around better people. In sports, sometimes people get so caught up in ‘He should do this on his own.’ I don’t play tennis and I don’t play golf. The way I grew up is, we’ve got to do this together as a team.”
11 YEARS AGO TODAY 👑
Playing without Kyrie & Kevin Love, the Cavs beat the Warriors and took a 2-1 lead behind 40 PTS, 12 REB, 8 AST, 4 STL, 2 BLK from LeBron James and 20 PTS from Delly.
Please keep a close watch on your kids at all times.
You just never know what’s going on in other people’s minds. Just look at this for goodness sake 🤦🏾♂️
14 years ago today, LeBron James down 3-2 vs the Celtics saved his legacy and potentially the future of the Heat big 3:
45 PTS
15 REB
5 AST
73 FG%
19/26 FGM
One of the most important performances in NBA history. 🔥
Miami Heat tie up the NBA Finals series 3-3 in an instant classic against the Spurs! (2013)
James: 32 pts, 11 ast, 10 reb
Chalmers: 20 pts, 4 reb, 2 ast
Wade: 14 pts, 4 ast, 2 blk
Shane Battier on Miami LeBron and why LeBron is the GOAT:
“For as good as you think he was, he was that much better. I’m biased, but when people say LeBron or MJ, I say LeBron did something twice, that I don’t think Jordan could ever do once. He won two NBA titles with Shane Battier as his starting PF. I love Mike, one of the greatest of all time but LeBron did it twice with me as his bum ass PF….. The force, intelligence, he didn’t have a weakness when he was in his prime. There was no answer for him. He was like the Queen on the chess board. Could do everything.”

LeBron putting up 37 PTS in Game 7 of the Finals to beat the Spurs
while “Bosh and Ray Allen” combined for 0 PTS doesn’t get talked about enough. 👑🔥
One of the greatest carry jobs ever
