Love how KD is a straight basketball junkie. Makes me appreciate him even more 👌🏽🏀
Not just basketball that guy is deep. To see where it all stems from for lbj….respect
i love seeing people admire LeBron greatness he's truly one of a kind
Curry also has four rings you capping
@allantadeo3862 one of a kind. You trying too hard
@@allantadeo3862 Steph four rings no doubt, but only the best player in one out of six finals. That's embarrassing
Hopefully you think that of Kobe but up another level! If you don’t I already know your favorite NBA growing up is STEVEN A SMITH 😂
@@jerryren4076 Exactly... he's way too overrated and, over-praised for a guy that's only got ONE trick... 🤦♂️... he had MORE weapons than ANYONE in his arsenal.. yes even more than Lebron
“If it was easy everyone would do it” sums up Lebrons career. 1 of 1
Kd don’t even realize how good he is. What a sheep
Got a silly tribe member
@@fredpickels6925 KD literally's praising Bron, what ya mean
@@jerryren4076what the little man means is that he shouldn't be appreciating another man's greatness 🙄🙄🙄
Always been a bron guy but KD and even Steph are 35 still playing like top 10 players. They all deserve credit thats working everyday even in the off-season
Facts but LeBron is putting up better numbers at year 21 than most h.o.f best year & k.d & curry had to ream up to slow LeBron down that put them wayyy below Lebron
@@MyCrownIssaHalo theyve never been on his level, nobody ever has
@@JohnnyDahabra Steph and KD are not on Bron's level?
@@jerryren4076 not even close. Nobody in history is. He has led his teams in every stat in more series than everyone else in history combined, that is a fact
@@JohnnyDahabra nah for real? that can't be true
It’s so NICE and REFRESHING to see the ADMIRATION KD has for Bron. We NEED more people like that
KD being injured so frequently throughout his career definitely makes him appreciate Brons Longevity even more💯
He talking about Bron, But you can say same thing about HIM ! APPRECIATE KD
Nah we good
KD sucks
KD needs the 73 9 team
@@Original94Like the 73-9 team needed him after they chocked lmao GSW ain't no dinasty without Kevin Durant get over it buddy. GSW is what it is now because of him
@@DE4D_Pool🤡
Kd on another planet in this interview
Nobody. Aint nobody on this earth is like LeBron. He’s one of one.
what he's done for the game of basketball his dedication to greatness his divine focus to stay locked in for this long is crazy we'll never see this again lebron is truly a gem.
It's damn near feel impossible to have a player built like lebron, that loves to pass like magic, can take over like Jordan offensively, played amazing man to man defense, didn't mind being the offensive and defensive captain, moved players mid game like Peyton manning in football, gets himself AND others paid, wanted to see you score 30 but still can score 30 in the same game without being jealous, and understood opposing coaches just as much as he understood opposing players, and can adjust their game to almost 3 different Eras of basketball.
I'm with you.
I don't think they'll be another one like him. He came in the perfect time
Longevity god for sure. Have to give him that
Media need to start giving kobe his credit! Kobe was before lebron & was a damn good player. I take kobe over lebron, not to take anything away from lebron he is one of the greatest! Kobe is in the conversation.
Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi are better and deal with more
you know it takes incredible humility and courage to publicly and within yourself acknowledge that your biggest rival is superior to you. Respect to KD!
Ok
I think this was a dope show of humility by KD for sure, but where did he admit that "[his] biggest rival is *superior* to [him]" ?
Not hating (liked your comment actually), but curious how you came to that interpretation/conclusion.
@@theanonymouslegion4811 around 1:15 the co-host says that MJ has built an empire but LBJ's body of work is second to none. To which KD replies yes it is. Unless KD thinks he s better than/on level with MJ i think he's agreeing that LBJ is superior to him.
You may not think Lebron’s the goat but his career is second to none…duration of greatness matters
RESPECT to KD on acknowledging the greatness of BRON‼️LBJ really the GOAT
KD disagrees lol
Fact
@@nine3sevenno he dont
@@coreythomas3633ya he does. His top 2 is MJ and Kobe
@@DonkeyKong5479 no he dont he gave bron props as the goat before.
KD nice cypher, need that interview
“How many people can relate to Lebron James on Earth”, my god, never thought abt it that way
If you consistently give 100% to anything you do for 20yrs straight where people say you top 10 to top 15 at the least in that time, your dedication is at the apex of my respect
I have grown to appreciate KD.
I do see him as the only Basketball player that is second to LeBron James in this ERA.
I admire his love for the game and him taking control of his career and narrative.
Yes, second to join another superstar and coast to a championship.
This interview finna be fire!! I alwayes enjoyed KD's interviews, favorite player oat!
Who would’ve thought it?
Vinny Testaverde getting his flowers
You can't deny what lbj has done. The amazing thing is he lived up to the expectations. That makes it 100x harder to do.
The only active players right now that has a valid GOATED Longevity is Lebron, Durant and Curry
What’s goated longevity a lot of players have had it if this is the standard. Which I’m cool with just wondering
@@soulzy3596hmmm not exactly like this, all of them are still playing at a high level in their mid 30s, yeah other players have been in the league for as long but they’re nowhere near as impactful to a team like these 3 are
Not tryna sound like a hater but Durants not rlly in the same conversation as Bron and Steph tbh. Until he can prove he can win a chip without the warriors
@@jamaljones4077 The question here is longetivity, not accolades
@@cristan7525longevity part of the goat.
Can’t wait for the Full Interview!
This man always gives us (Real Talk)
the Great KD a real one
Out of every one you teamed up with... Him ,LBJ
Is one I wished I could have saw ..
but
📚 an Beal...
Looking real good... right now...
When they all put there 😮
KD really summed it up perfectly 💯 appreciate him and Bron while they still playing 🐐🐐
I don't understand how any one can dislike kd guy is just a hooper
A hooper that joins the team that beat him. His a joke.
This Dope. Maturity is when you can praise another competitor without insecurity.
Hey Kevin 👋 great convo my brother respect as a human even tho I don't personally know u but I peep your growth. One love
It’s not about 21 years only. It’s about discipline. That tiger woods part at the end shows you how this man kept such a perfect image. Great role model and never cheated the game, he just accepted he had a harder hill to climb and made no excuses
I always enjoy listening to kd speak. Jump back on the pod bro
lbj from being highschool phenom, hero of cle then turned upside down from being villain miami era to a hero of cle then a laker.
from 2003 until now love this man. he lift the nba for 2 dacades happy to witness his greatness. hate him or love him still one of the goats in nba history.
Kd longevity
👑 LEBRON 🐐
That's my dude kd, he doesn't hate on players, he give credit when it's do.
Kevin is just as awesome
The HATE for LeBron is just HATE for no real reason...
LeBron is the role model we always say athletes are supposed to be!!!
There is NO off the court trouble EVER reported on LeBron and he's done nothing but good. He's a good, faithful husband and father, yet people dream up things to hate on this man for...
SMDH
For NO REAL REASON... really dude. Smfh
He single handedly ruined the NBA & the ratings don't lie
Player empowerment ruined the game and took out ANY COMPETITIVENESS the NBA once had..
Hopped teams to win championships when other GOATS didn't have to
Keep dreaming .. or listening to LeMedia 💤
Thanks KD for appreciating greatness.
ONE OF A KIND. KING JAMES
KD , MEAN @SS INTERVIEW and PERSPECTIVE!! U GOTTA START SHOWING YOUR I.Q. ON SHOWS LIKE THIS MORE PLAYBOI!! SIDEBAR: YOUR RESUME IS OFFICIAL AS WELL CHAMP!!!👑🏀👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Respect KD for what you saying.
I always felt like your are second best player in the league since 2012. Never understood people put Steph over you. Without Klay and Warriors system Steph would never be where he is but KD you were the best player everywhere you go.
I still regret you joined to Warriors but well it’s history.
Dray was more important than Klay IMO. The warriors defense was led by him and he was leading the team in assists.
Love the admiration and respect KD and LeBron have for each other, two legends 👏👏👏
Go on...drop the full episode 😅
KD SPEAKING FACTS
KD appreciate your love for the game and giving credit where it’s deserved at the same time. What a great human being you are.
Just drips knowledge and love of the game. Always loved KD and his stone cold personality.
Legoat!!!!!!! I’m from Ohio lebron over everyone
serious question in Ohio/Cleveland do they love Lebron like how LA does Kobe. i feel like he should be admired there
BronSEXUAL
@@HakeemTheLean yes we do most of the city mad he left but we still love him every time he comes home we show love he got us the only championship we ever had so it’s gone always be love!!!!
@@freshhearn7032 thats real i only asked cause for some reason lebron gets alot of hate good to know the place he love loves him back
@@HakeemTheLean
lebron is loved in AKRON
cleveland is jealous of Akron ..
🔥🔥🔥
W pause on kd 2:00 that was funny
KD is really one of the most intelligent minds in the game. I can't wait until he opens up more, maybe after he's done playing. But a KD podcast would go crazy! Just sayin
Bron greatness much more than longevity though, even if he retired a few years ago, it’s way more than longevity.
Been watching the game since 06 Bron is the greatest basketball player I’ve ever seen
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Love the Jordan 5 a ma maniere dusk looking 🔥
Facts
LBJ at 39 vs Jordan with the Wizards. Is there a comparison? ? ?
Exactly, Jordan still played both side of the court
@thediseaseisthecure plus mj didn't play with all star teammates in wizards
@@thediseaseisthecurethet MISSED THE PLAYOFFS what both sides of the court.
@@marwil8717mj was overrated avg 22 or 20 ppg he was as good as lebron. 😅😅😅 wow nice try.
@@coreythomas3633
Thanks, Capt. Obvious
The point was he never forced his teammates play 4 on 5 on D, like bron’s been doing for years
We never really seen bron as a casual hooper he always been great and that fact that he came in great is going great is for sure second to none. Like he’s never been a mid hooper his WHOLE career
Facts!!! 💯
Lebron James illustrates what the never ending pursuit of greatness looks like
Thoughtful comments by KD…much respect.
Thing about it is, THERE'S PLENTY OF PLAYERS THAT HAD 1-of-1 CAREERS. LEBRON IS 1 OF THEM. HONESTLY SPEAKING.
Gotta appreciate the love for Bron coming through here. Gotta correct my guy on Tiger though. Tiger wasn't good he was great and went on the greatest run in modern sports history bar none. When they start having to "tiger proof" courses which would've cost millions of dollars in order to equalize the sport and he still dominated despite the game being made to be more difficult for him specifically, across multiple continents that's truly amazing.
Yooo he’s also 3 or 4 in assists which is just completely nuts 😂😂😂😂
Hey 👋Kevin
We were robbed of Bron’s greatness in years 15-17
no we werent ...
@@ReoLeo-ov7xhYes we were!
2ND TO NONE💯‼️
LBJ on and off the court greatness all round.
While sportswriters don’t agree, the off court greatness is connected. It keeps the on court stuff focused.
Ja and Zion are examples of that issue.
they mentioned
jordon
serena
brady
drake
tiger
but not cristiano lol . cristiano is litrelly playing in hes 22nd year now
Pause 😂😂😂😂
2:43 that’s actually facts. That’s why MJ retired 3 different times. He got tired of the political scope, fame and front office portion of the game. LeBron has endured high level fame and media scrutiny since he was 16, 3 different franchise changes, huge political climate and focus in the league and he’s still in the league playing at a high level with a clean bill of the court. I believe MJ loved basketball and competing just as much as Bron but he didn’t have any patience for the political side of the organization. It’s still a job at the end of the day and the corporate junk you deal with will burn you out no matter how much money youre making.
Always dreamed of KD teaming up with Bron maybe in LA before these two retire. They have so much respect and admiration for each other
its been an honor and a blessing to have watched his whole career.What a story.
I'm sorry when it comes to athletes ain't nobody's nose cleaner than LeBron James! Meaning he lived the least scandalous life compared to any of those that are at his level and league! His life in and outside of court has less to none scandals then Michael Jordan, Tom Brady, tiger woods, and even Serena Williams!
To hear so many other players talk about how great LeBron is and see so much hate from random people lets me know it personal for them. He could win 6 more rings and they would still try to diminish his achievements. It’s super weird.
It will never be another lebron James. The greatest ever .
A certified flopper.
This clip ended DEEP ****
MJ, Kobe, Lebron the best 3 players that ever played. If you really know basketball and or played at a high level. Those 3 over everyone else, all things included. On the court, off the court, mentality, longevity, IT FACTOR, leadership, championships, stats, accolades. Overall GREATNESS. In that order
Kobe not in that conversation am sorry
@@adbridalandevents can’t read, boy? I those of us that played at a high level and really know basketball. Not for you kids
@@adbridalandevents
Neither is Lebron not sorry
@@thediseaseisthecure🧢
@@adbridalandeventsyes he is.
Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo as well man
honestly feel bad for those who still can't accept and appreciate lebron's greatness. if he's not in your top 2 all time you're wrong💀
Recent athletes who can relate
Serena Williams
Tom Brady
Roger Federer
That’s probably it
In NBA history…no one
The way Kd put his hands on his head had him thinking like man Why can’t I be this good as him
Your weird bro
> we remember Lebron & Maverick
being the *1st guest, on KD's Boardroom Podcast* ..
> we remember KD and Lebron rapp'n a song
while riding around in Akron Ohio ..
they were together discussing an ALL STAR weekend VIA *Lebron's media company UNINTERRUPTED*
Lebron the greatest of all time
If you were born after 2006 yes
Lmao you are a child.
Lebron has done things that won't be matched.
And KD is one of those greats 🖐🏼🤚🏼
Complete respect KD 💪🏾
Ok thats respect😮
My boy KD high af too lol
That eye leaning 😂😂
He named all 🐐... That's crazy
As someone that has never been a lebron fan ON the court, LeBron is a very special talent, he was a absolute phenom, and for him to still be playing this way at 29 is crazy.....there will be a bigfoot sized footprint to fill once lebron retires
Hey Kevin it's always good seeing u on the channel 😊❤🎉
Thats why i love KD
WHY WOULD YOU MENTION TOM BRADY WHEN TOM IS UNATHLETIC AND DIDN'T DO ANYTHING? TOM'S TEAM MATES DID EVERYTHING
The Suns tampering , KD heard bout the Warriors making a run for Bron 😂
Aight den is, we know u know he d goat... Don't worry we do too
U kids delusional 😂 the man just saying we need to respect his greatness. And I agree. He is the longevity king. Never seen before an iron man like this. He a superhero and top 3 player all time. Lebron
The only person that I could compare to LeBron is Muhammad Ali, because like LeBron, Muhammad Ali had to deal with a lot of people who hated him. Jordan never had to deal with hate, and Tiger Woods was beloved even by people who hated black people.
Forgot to make the one and only, the greatest, Lionel Andres Messi.
LBJ can be the next president of the USA 🇺🇸 🎯
Already had 1 passive-aggressive narcissist in the white house
He can never be president.... He's KING James.
Not just the physical longevity but the mental, Lebron constantly has to hear criticism, comparisons to jordan, etc. 99.9% of us making that kind of money would wake up and just say "you know what, screw all this. I can just retire and enjoy my life without all this nonsense." But lebron has had this mental warfare since stepping into the league. Insane.
KD is on that same level, who wouldn't be happy to see KD and not hold that moment close forever 💯💯
Kudos to KD to appreciate Bron, I respect KD more now.
He just admiring kus he realized going from one team to another to win rings is harder than it looks
His longevity is expensive.
KD is highhh AFFFF😂😂😂😂
