When Winning Didn't Matter: LeBron & the Era that DESTROYED the NBA

Спорт

From the dawn of time in basketball history, winning has always been the main barometer of greatness...until an era's best player couldn't win.

    It's too late. Cuz now these young kids think and act just like him. Jalen green Ben Simmons DeAndre ayton Joel embiid ja mordant etc. We just keep moving the goal posts. And they all act entitled and shit. Only faces il respect leading the NBA after his retirement is Gianni or jokic or Luka because at least they care. Notice how I only mentioned euro players........

    Yep, Bron might be the greatest loser of all time😀..To be honest though, Jordan is a part of the media driven marketing of the NBA. Not taking anything away from what he and the Bulls did. David Stern, who didn't soot one shot or get one rebound is the singular most valuable asset the league has ever seen. He helped to create the MJ frenzy with his brilliant marketing strategies. There are 9 players who have won more rings than Jordan but will never be considered important to the game. Karriem, the NBA's all time leading scorer for 37 years, who also won 6 rings is very seldom if even in the GOAT conversation. So it seems winning takes on a different value and importance when we talk about MJ unlike anyone else to ever play the game.

    ​@@AfrikanLifestyleThere have been plenty of great players in the league before Jordan. But Jordans charisma and electricity he brought to the court was captivating. He had Bird and Magic calling him that best player in the league his rookie season. He made NBA All-Stars look like kids. Isiah used to say, "Jordan treats us like we are in high school". Trust me kid, the level of superstar your dealing with will dictate marketability. Did you watch "AIR"?...Nike dumped their entire budget on an unproven rookie, AND gave him a guaranteed percentage of profit on every shoe that branded his name and moniker. In that time, NO ONE did that. But, they saw what most people saw. A future legend who could change the game. David Stern had nothing to do with that 🤦

    Oh I have always thought that Duncan ranked ahead of Lebron! More championships, fewer losses in the Finals, 19 consecutive playoff appearances (every year of his career) and 50+ wins during each of those regular seasons (save for the shortened lockout 1998-1999 season) to boot! Duncan was way more consistent than Lebron in his playing on the court; he made his teammates better; stayed with one team all the way through and never once thought about leaving the Spurs for "greater glory"; had better relationships with his coaches. The Big Fundamental will always be golden! He almost always gets skipped over when it comes to discussing Kobe or Lebron as being the G.O.A.T. after Jordan retired the second time.

    The epilogue got me wrapped up, it was the perfect explanation of what competition sports really means and how LeBron has spear headed this young generation into accepting participation awards and anything other than 1st place as long as they play somewhat well, "they can live with the results" a bullshit mindset created by LeBron and accepted by inferior athletes and fans to avoid the feeling of failure 😊pathetic humans and they wonder why everything is frowned upon by older generations, it's not hate, it's an assessment of a weak mentality and it translates to other areas of life, so many people are afraid to compete and lose, that they accept cheating and stacking the odds and pass it off as being the "smarter" person when in reality it's cowardly, LeBron also made it okay to have excuses and blame others for failing, it's a very toxic mindset, just look at how his fans act towards other basketball fans when they disagree with them, I rest my case 😴

    Let’s also not forget that despite LeBron being a part of the Heat “Superteam”, the 2014 Spurs destroyed that team so bad in the Finals, he is now saddled with the worst point differential Finals series loss in NBA history… with two all-star players on his, oops my bad, D-Wade’s team. He isn’t even Robin to Wade, he’s the third wheel essentially Batgirl as Bosh joined Team Collusion first. And yes, I know the Spurs had future hall of famers Ginobili and Parker, a late second round pick and late first round pick respectively, but do not forget the Spurs drafted and cultivated these two talented players to new heights. I love these series that points out the actual truth of LeFlop James.

Nobody included Bill Russell in the conversation. Jordan started that when he started talking about Russell’s 11 after Jordan won 6. It was important to win rings, but the attitude was more “he’s got one too” than “I’ve got 6 and you’ve got 4.” Btw Kareem started winning those arguments when he passed Wilt’s point total. Oh, and nobody ever in any era sincerely believed Magic, Bird, or Duncan were THE Goat. They were always referred to as best of their position, or “in the conversation.”

He’s the only player in the history of the NBA to get Swept Twice in the Finals, within the last 20 years. He also lost 4-1 and 4-2 in the Finals. Lebron’s played 20 years and only won 4 Chips, that means 16 other teams have won on his watch. As you said, he never played on a dynasty / juggernaut. He didn’t even play on the best team during his era. Skap Attack you’re definitely on point with your analogies.

    @@chisome1777 You missed my point entirely. Have you ever heard of the term dynasty? Lebron’s been to 10 finals and lost 6. Elite NBA Teams Win more than they lose! Example, the Los Angeles Lakers dominated the 2000’s. The Lakers Won 5 Chips between 2000-2010, 3 With Shaq, 2 WITHOUT SHAQ!!! 5 Championship’s Within 10 Years? That would make Kobe’s Lakers a dynasty / juggernaut! Example, the San Antonio Spurs won 5 Championships. Tim Duncan’s Spurs won 3 Chips between 2003 and 2007. If you add that up combined, the Lakers and the Spurs won majority of the Chips (8) between 2000-2010. The Spurs didn’t dominate quite like the Lakers, but they would still be considered a dynasty / juggernaut! Another example, Michael Jordan’s Chicago Bulls. The Bulls dominated the 90’s! They won 6 Championships between 1991 and 1998. Final example, Steph Curry’s Golden State Warriors are considered a dynasty! My point is, what decade did Lebron dominate? Name one team that he ever played for that was considered a dynasty. He didn’t even play on the best team during his era. That honor would go to the Golden State Warriors!

    Awesome video, like always. I just want to specify that the so-called goat debate is a product of this era, and didn't really exist before. Yes, people sometimes discussed about it here and there, but nobody really cared and there wasn't much tension. Fans were all for the current rivalries: Magic vs Bird, Jordan vs Drexler, Chicago vs New York, New York vs Indiana, Olajuwon vs Robinson, Houston vs Phoenix, Kemp & Payton Sonics vs Malone & Stockton Jazz. The only thing that mattered was who wins the series or the title, and all the debates and tensions had to do with that. The basketball community acclaimed MJ as the GOAT not because there was a debate, but to express the global admiration for what he was offering exceeded anything seen in the past. Now people talk all the time about who's the “goat,” “top 5,” “top 10,” because we have great talent but we don't have the essence of the game, that is, rivalry, intensity, excitement, everything that comes with passion to win above anything else. What we need is a new era of rivalries and genuine excitement to rise again.

All this talk about "the GOAT" has metastasized thanks to Lebron and his ilk propagandizing people through the mass media (specifically ESPN and Fox Sports) who hyper-focused on this topic on sports debates shows OVER and OVER and OVER again until people got all worked up about it. MJ is the GOAT because, as you astutely pointed out, he TRANSCENDED the sport. Even great SOCCER players worship MJ and soccer is the most popular sport in the world, MJ is the only American athlete that is more recognizable than Pele in Brazil. He is that transcendent as both player and icon. We need a return of rivalries, and beefs, and division traditions, and fan traditions, and UNIQUE styles of play (I miss Kobe so much, NOBODY today really plays like him - you never knew what you were gonna get with him, left handed floaters, etc). I think we are seeing some of that return with Jimmy Butler upsetting the Celtics and the Celtics beating Miami the year before. That is a real rivalry with real animosity. I also think the Clippers and Lakers have a chance to be a real rivalry if Kawhi and PG stay healthy which is basically a pipe dream lol.

That's true, Michael Jordan is the only basketball player in history that reached the same levels of popularity worldwide as the top soccer legends like Pele and Maradona. David Becham said that when he went to Real Madrid and his number 7 was taken by Raúl Gonzalez, he chose 23 because of his admiration for MJ. In 1999-2000 MJ's son asked for a Raúl's signed jersey when they were in Spain, and Raúl sent it writing "to his Majesty who I always admire" recognizing Jordan as the greatest athlete in the world. On the contrary, when Lebron went to LA and Zlatan Ibrahimovic was playing there, he welcomed-mocked him tweeting that now LA had a god (himself) and a king. Then Lebron sent him his jersey, and Zlatan sent it back signed by himself. :) Also, in the Champions League final in Paris last year, Real Madrid's fans booed Lebron like the fans at the Super Bowl this year.

    ​@@borisfrlicI would argue that unlike Lebron, Jokic actually makes his teammates play better. In Lebron's case, it's more about benefitting each other than making his teammates better. For example, if he has a 3 point shooting teammate. Either a teammate receives a better quality 3 point shot due to Lebron's gravity, or Lebron won't be double teamed because of a threat of a kickout, making Lebron's drives easier. Jokic can do that, and more. Jokic's teammates actively try to improve their off-ball movement because when Jokic has the ball, they know a pass will come when Jokic thinks they are open.

    No other team could have beaten the 2017 Warriors in the playoffs. When they added Kevin Durant in the postseason, the Warriors were really unstoppable. They added Kevin Durant into a 73-9 team. The Warriors swept everyone in the Western Conference series convincingly. The Warriors were one win away from the perfect season when they lost game 4 in the NBA Finals that year, but even that Finals series was convincing because the Warriors beat LeBron-led Cavs with an average point differential of 13.75. Their lowest winning point differential was 5 points in Game 3, and their highest being 22 points in Game 1. I don't think anybody could have beaten the Warriors in 2017 because they are overpowered. The following year in the 2018 playoffs the Warriors were still a beyond excellent team with the addition of Kevin Durant, and with an excellent supporting cast. That's why they won back-to-back championships, and swept the 2018 Cavs. As with the 2014 Finals with the Spurs, I don't think anyone can beat the Spurs and how good they played in 5 games against the Heat. It was their revenge tour from last years Finals. Could it perhaps be that LeBron would have been eliminated prior to the Finals in the Western Conference? Probably, but I think he's still an excellent player to make an incredible impact on the team. However we're both speculating and because he played most of his career in the East so far, we will never know for sure. While I would agree that LeBron and the Heat choked in the 2011 Finals, I think it's hard to criticize the guy for not having 6 - 7 rings. Kobe doesn't have 6, he has 5 in 20 years, Shaq doesn't, and Curry doesn't (perhaps yet). Most "good enough" teams do not have 6 - 7 NBA championships as of writing this within the past 30 years. Hell, there are only 5 teams with more than 5 NBA championships (Spurs, Bulls, Warriors, Lakers, Celtics). If you were to narrow that list to NBA teams within the past 20 years, it would be even less NBA teams. I can understand you might not like LeBron because he flops, his attitude, or whatever reason it may be, but I just don't think you can bash a guy who doesn't have 6 - 7 rings because "good enough teams" could have won 6 - 7 rings within 20 years. Most teams don't win 5+ championships in 20 years. The only thing that I can think of between 2000 and 2020 are the Lakers and Spurs.

    I think the appeal of European players is that most of them stay committed to their teams when the team is committed to them (think Dirk). Giannis and Jokic were developed by their respective teams as raw prospects, and I expect them to stay put for a very long time. Rookies sign 4 year contracts - in today's NBA, if your team is not a contender yet, I would expect most of them to leave. I root for the Wizards, who hasn't picked up an impactful free agent....ever. I'll check with them in 4 years when tanking is complete.

If a guy has all the stats, the awards, the accolades and fails continually to win the chip... he cant possibly be the GOAT! He can be the greatest statistical LOSER of all time.. I mean he can be the least winningest dominate player of all time, the biggest thing is that people state with a straight face that Lebron: Get his teammates involved, is a "selfless player", is clutch... all while he hasnt lead the league in assists(which especially the last 5 yrs you would like he would be nailing this), or rebounds (isnt he an actual power forward?) he isnt all defense, he hasnt been the most clutch player on his championship teams for at least TWO of his 4 titles and all he does is LOSE... SO no... he isnt the best teammate, he doesnt consistently get them involved" he isnt clutch and every move he has ever made in his entire career has been about HIM ALONE! When can we just call him what he is... a great player, phenomenal athlete, incredibly smart business man/marketer of himself that has built an empire on his skills and "charm" and there is nothing wrong with that... he just isnt the greatest basketball player of all time... this video is the death nail in the coffin of LBJ

    Jordan's reign started at the very cusp of the NBA's expansion. So the overall talent pool was shallower and thus making it easier to dominate the way he did. Now way Jordan win's 6 rings in Lebron's era. Lebron had the misfortune to peak right as the Warriors dynasty just kicked off, and he still managed to pull a ring out of it too. I personally rank Jordan over Bron all time but this video is massively disrespectful.

    Is that why Lebron could only win ONE game vs KDs Warriors while Harden was ONE CPR Hamstring INJURY away from beating those EXACT SAME Warrios 4-3 in 2017, those so-called UNBEATABLE Warriors were DOWN 3-1 to OKC before Westbrook lost his mind and then Houstonw as up 3-2 vs the KD Warriors before CP3 tore his hamstring in 2017. LEBRON IS OVERRATED. MJ would've won MORE in this era. Bron LOST to teams KOBE BEAT: 2007 SPURS SWEPT Bron who played like ass (outplayed by Bobby Gibson). Kobe gentleman swept the Spurs 4-1 in 2008. 2009 Orlando beat Bron 4-2, Kobe gentleman swept them 4-1 in 2009. 2010 Boston Beat bron so bad (4-2) he ran to Wade to beg him to teach him out to win a ring, since Wade had ALREADY won a ring with Shaq. Kobe beat them 4-3 on two broken fingers in his shooting hand AND a knee so damaged he had it surgically repaired right after the finals. What Lebrons Excuse for 2011? His Excuse for 2014? His Excuse for 2015? Kyrie OUTPLAYED CURRY in 2016 AND 2017. FACT, go look their splits and come to me. I've done it. Kyrie outplayed him Kobe wayyyyy better than Bron. WAYYY better. Bron got BRONZE with TIm Duncan TWICE at the same age Kobe was OUTSCORING and OUTREBOUNDING Shaq in Game 7 of the 2000 WCSF. No Kobe = No Gold Medal lol.

    This video may get the clout it needed but you’re wrong, LeBron has overcome adversity since 2012, down 3-2 against the Celtics and in 2013 down 3-2 against the Spurs who were undefeated in the finals, you might not think he’s the goat but other people who watched him will say that he is and don’t even mention beating a historic 73-9 team down 3-1, his career is already solidified. He has won a championship that every team he moved too so that’s already puts him in the goat conversation.

    Here's my take on it. Just be consistent in your logic. If you think winning is most important when talking the best then apply that logic to everyone. If you think individual talent is most important, then hold that standard for everything. When if you ask me the most logical answer is somewhere in the middle. How good were you in regards to your success. Were you a talented loser or an untalented winner? The best of the best should be reserved for the talented winners and the others fall in behind. Tim Ducan should be in the greatest of all time discussion, he had the HIGHEST career win% of all time at 70+%, 5 rings, Finals MVPs and regular season MVPs, not to mention the most all defensive selections of all time as well. But a LOT of people are saying he's only 7-8. Individuals simply lack being consistent.

    Great points on nearly all accounts! I agree with the message of your argument, but one major detail is Duncan was really a CENTER--an all-time level Center and even listed as one for the majority of his seasons played. Just as no one really considered either Sampson or Olajuwon as a PF and C, Duncan in his seasons with Robinson was a center because C are primary rim-protectors on defense with mostly back-to-basket game (which Duncan was for all of his career, exclusively fitting the role during the post-Robinson years). I never thought of it as you noted, but LeWhine surprisingly compares to Jerry West both in terms of raw stats and NBA Finals record.

    WOW. You just blew my mind with that fact about Duncan. So why do so many people, even legends like Barkley, keep calling him s PF? He actually DID play Center for most of his career the more i think about it. He played a bit like Olajuwon but Olajuwon was better than Duncan (and that's no sleight to the great Timmy, it's more a testament to how remarkable Hakeem was - destroying Shaq in the finals).

    Thank you, @@feynmanschwingere_mc2270! I am a fan of Barkley (player and TV personality), but he, too, is part of sports media which inevitably promotes certain narratives (i.e. Duncan as a PF; many others the in media like paid pawn Nick Wright even making a G.O.A.T. conversation at all involving LeFlop). Absolutely, Olajuwon was superior to Duncan in nearly all facets of the game, except in the luck department as TD had a career with superior team management (consequently, better drafted teammates), quality of coaching staffs, overall quality of teammates, and fewer true contenders in the league during his respective era (really, it was mostly the Lakers, Heat, and Dirk). After listening to the evidence presented by astute basketball historians, I agree that Hakeem is the greatest center of all-time. I see Duncan ~#6, behind Olajuwon, Kareem, Wilt, Russell, and Admiral, but just ahead of Shaq.

    Imagine if Kobe joined Duncan in FA and then also added Dirk. All colluding to come together. That's what that Heat team was. But you can't imagine it as those players would not even think of doing anything like that. That would kill the whole purpose of competing. It's the equivalent of teaming up with your boys and destroying some kids on the court. There's no satisfaction in that
