LeBron James and Steph Curry have both had legendary careers to this point even being rivals in the 2010s but their situations are entirely different as Steph Curry has stayed on the Warriors his whole career and LeBron has changed teams four times so with them both being born in the great city of Akron Ohio we're gonna swap them at Birth meaning Steph would be getting ready for the draft in 2003. let's do this and as for LeBron well he'd be in second period math class this sucks ass so with Chef Curry going number one to the Cavs he would average around 21 points and eight assists his rookie season sneaking into the postseason with a 42-40 record death made the playoffs as an eighth seed and Curry would shock the 76ers taking the series to a game seven all of which relied on one shot from his teammate he's gotta pass it Ricky Davis turns around for the win duh Steph fought hard in his first playoff series but LeBron fought even harder in the lunch line this sucks ass but now entering the 2005 season Curry had gone from an 84 to an 88 leading the Cavs to a three seed in the East where he would play the Nets first round and get smacked four to one and all the while LeBron would be getting smacked by his geography test this sucks ass but nonetheless Steph would go on to lead the Cavs to a 47-35 season and he would get smacked by Miami in round one and while Curry originally got drafted out of college in 2009 LeBron would not need to go to college he'd be going into the draft in 2006. Ron skipped College he's now on the Warriors and it's 2006 and King James would be entering the league as an 84 overall meaning he was 10 behind Steph Curry who would be entering his fourth season leading the Cavs to a 41-41 record making the playoffs as a seventh seed which isn't too bad but on the other hand LeBron would take the league by storm averaging 22 5-6 first season easily winning Rookie of the Year it went 59-23 this is obj's first season that's unbelievable LeBron was the number one seedest rookie year but before we dive into this intense playoff run there's a little challenge you see in real life LeBron and stuff both have four championships so in order to see who's had the easiest circumstances these two are gonna race to four championships so place your bets now on this roller coaster Journey all of which is gonna start with LeBron's first playoff run the king would rip through Elton brand in the Clippers round one and round two wouldn't come easy he would end up going down 3-2 against the Suns in a hard fight series Phoenix up 3-2 LeBron's backs against the wall but rookie King James would not fold he would blow out the Suns in game six and even more in game seven let's go into the Western Conference finals and while LeBron prepares for Carmelo Anthony and the Denver Nuggets in the Western Conference Finals let's check in with Steph in the Eastern Conference who would be battling it out against the two-seated Pistons taking them all the way to a game game seven and Curry continued to do his part but his teammates made sure that they came up short dang man step was so that was so close stuff went off it just wasn't enough I mean his teammates sold of course dude it's the Cavs at this point Curry was pretty furious with his teammates but we'll get back to that LeBron's first Finals appearance is on the line they're going up against Ai and Carmelo Anthony so this certainly will not be easy for him and I was right ai's killer handles and Carmelo's signature post game were too much LeBron and the Warriors kept it close but ultimately couldn't get the job done in game seven well you can't win them all Lebron got upset by the Nuggets but a rookie season run to the Conference Finals was still Beyond impressive for LeBron as for Steph he was four years deep into his career and hadn't really done anything yet but in the 2008 season Steph would be making his presence felt Steph come on he's coming out swinging staff averaged 33 points and 11 assists this season and Chef Curry wouldn't be cooling down just yet he would fly by the three-seated Raptors 4-1 first round and round two MVP Curry against Orlando Steph's MVP season was impressive but cut short but on the other side of things LeBron had led the Warriors to a 61-21 season he would rip his way through the playoffs right back to the Western Conference Finals where he came through for his team to get to his first Finals he's got it two one terrible terrible I mean that like what are you all right T-Mac it's over he's going to the finals the Warriors could celebrate their conference Championship for now but in the finals they'd be facing the same team that eliminated Steph Curry LeBron will now be facing the magic who went on to win the Eastern Conference Finals the king would now have a chance to jump out in front of Steph Curry in this race but the magic would come out and dominate the first two games which were in Golden State the magic take game two they've home court advantage and that home court advantage would work in Orlando's favor LeBron did all he could but the magic got it done in six games they get LeBron in 2009 was somewhat of a Down season for both the king and Curry LeBron the dubs would go 34-48 and miss the playoffs as for curry and the Cavs they'd finished 44 and 38 they'd be an eighth seed but they'd get smoked by Boston round one and in the next season things only got rougher for Steph and Cleveland he was a 95 overall and putting up really good numbers Steph averaged 37 points and they missed the playoffs yeah Curry averaged nearly 40 points in the regular season and still couldn't get in the playoffs so he might not be in Cleveland for much longer as for LeBron he led the Warriors to a 43-39 record getting a seventh seed in the postseason hurry missed the playoffs LeBron made it he's a seven seed he's playing the Rockets they got T-Mac in the house still I mean that's those are two tough people to beat and I figured this rocket Squad would beat the Warriors pretty quickly but LBJ said not so fast and jumped out in front of the Rockets demolishing them he went up 3-0 and neither Tracy nor T-Mac had an answer LeBron is up 3-0 in the two seed Rockets he actually might pull an insane upset and of course after giving up one game game at home he would get it done on the road in Houston well Brian does it he got it done let's go but in round two King James would have a rematch against the same team that dethroned him in the Conference Finals a few years ago this team's probably a lot better than the rock is and they definitely were better the Nuggets took the first game but then LeBron took the second then taking the series to Golden State Denver would take the first and LeBron of course would answer back the Venus ties it up and the Warriors would even take the next one and take a 3-2 lead but Carmelo and the Nuggets wouldn't give up that easily and they would force a game seven by more than 10 points LeBron had the upper hand but now he doesn't this is going to be a nail biter and I did think it was gonna be a nail biter but instead LeBron came out and won the game by 15. getting his revenge on mellow in the nuggets and advancing to his second Western Conference Finals that's it LeBron's going go into the Western Conference Finals again but in the Conference Finals he would be facing a classic Lakers team that originally won the finals this year they got Derek Fisher they got Kobe they got Lamar Odom they got Pau Gasol what more can you ask for in Golden State being a seven seed and the Lakers being a 1C this one was not easy the Lakers went up 2-0 in Los Angeles and it seemed like it was over from there but with LeBron Ramon James it's never over the series went back to Golden State and he would take the next two games tying it at two apiece then taking the next one in Los Angeles going up three to two but you'd be silly to think Kobe was gonna give up that easily he would win the next one and force of course another game seven we're at another game seven this is gonna be a good one and I was convinced this would be a good game but instead LeBron came out and he destroyed Kobe and would advance to his second finals six point game 25 seconds LeBron he's going to the finals again he beat Kobe Kobe but the king couldn't celebrate for long is in the finals he'd be playing the Celtics LeBron is taking down a two-seater 3C to one seed and he's going up against another one seed and lbj's dominant playoff run wouldn't be stopping anytime soon 2-0 on the prime Celtics but bald ass Kevin Garnett wasn't going down without a fight he would not only take the next two in Golden State but take a third and go up three to two and needless to say LeBron would respond in game six he's up 20 dude we're going to another game seven and despite the electric environment in Boston in game seven LeBron jumped out in front come on LeBron you gotta get your chip you gotta get a ring bro but slowly as the game went on the Celtics pulled away and LeBron couldn't get it done he was this close at game seven the king just couldn't carry the Warriors far enough but rest assured help would be arriving soon and as for curry well it's 2010 he's got a decision to make Cleveland sucks I'm going to South Beach Curry would now be taking his talents to Miami to link up with Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosh as for LeBron his best teammates would be Monta Ellis and David Lee so he'd have some work to do and to No Surprise the Miami Heat went 68 and 14 and of course we're a one seed in the East but what was even more surprising is that LeBron led the Warriors to a 67-15 record and of course this was an MVP season almost 36 points per game oh my God and Defensive Player of the Year good Lord I'm gonna predict one of the two is gonna win their first championship in these playoffs now let's see who that's gonna be and so for curry in the Heat this playoff run was light work they got through the first three rounds with ease as for LeBron even having much less help than Steph his story wasn't that much different the league MVP and defensive player of the year blew through rounds one two and three to his third finals appearance only taking one loss to this point and with that being said Steph and LeBron would be meeting in the finals for the first time this career swap is already turning the NBA upside down LeBron's only lost one game in the playoffs so far maybe he's got the upper hand so with the first lead of this race on the line This finals matchup was intense home court advantage would mean everything as in Miami Steph would tors LeBron and take the first two he's going back to Golden State let's see if LeBron can do something and without surprise the king wasn't going down that easy he'd take game three and four tying the series at two apiece and making things interesting LeBron's winning another were tied to a piece it's not over but after the heat took game five back in Miami LeBron would now be facing elimination in Golden State making the stakes for this game as high as ever so while Curry and LBJ went at each other Steph's shooting was just too much he took the lead with ease LeBron was fighting for his life on his own and Steph Curry would claim his first championship it's over Dude Curry's gonna win LeBron I think just attracts bad teammates at this point look at Steph man his first ring and despite LeBron having three finals appearances Steph would be the first to strike jumping ahead with a win in his first Finals appearance coincidentally against LeBron and so in the 2012 season Golden State in Miami would still run the league Curry and D Wade would lead the heat to a 67-15 record with an easy one seed in the east as for LeBron he would now have Klay Thompson giving the Splash Brothers a much different look as they went 61-21 claiming the one seed in the west and King James well he'd be claiming his MVP and defensive player year trophies again LeBron with back-to-back MVP seasons and as expected these two would clear the league out in the playoffs hurry in the heat annihilated every team in the East to the finals as well as LeBron both only taking two losses to compete for a championship but in the Western Conference finals against the sonics who were supposed to be the Thunder but I messed up I noticed for some reason LeBron wasn't on the floor LeBron had seven point LeBron's injured with only the finals to go LeBron's severe right ankle sprain ruled him out for the season leaving only Klay Thompson as a sign of Hope for the king in this race against Steph and I wish this season had a fairy tale ending but Steph Curry and D Wade ripped through the Warriors they smothered him in four games and Curry would now jump out with a 2-0 lead in this race he got bailed out with LeBron being injured dude and Curry was bailed out to say the least but in the 2013 season it seemed like things might go the King's Way hurry in the heat again had a dominant season claiming the two seat in the East but so did LeBron who is now a 97 overall and he was an MVP and defensive player of the year again as the one seed in the west what is happening this is not normal he'd had a little bit of a Down Season this might be a LeBron's chance and I really did think the heat might fall apart this season as they were only a two seed now but I didn't expect the downfall to come so soon as the Hawks swept them in the first round that's it they're getting upset by the seven seed round one and not only that they're getting swept so with the greatest shooter of all time now out of the playoffs LeBron now had clay and Draymond who would lead the Warriors past the Timberwolves and then the Jazz into an intense matchup in the Western Conference finals against the Spurs which was an evenly Matched series as the two would go back and forth and of course it would come down to a game seven in this elimination game would be the only thing standing between LeBron James and his first chip which was something he needed to make this race with Steph competitive so with this game and series coming down to the wire I had no choice but to jump in tied 99 a piece a minute left it's game seven everything's on the line Steph Curry's up 2-0 finals wise kawhi's got it with a minute left there's bald Richard Jefferson on him this is for all the Marvels here man I'm I'm scared LeBron's face quite hits it it doesn't matter oh my God bro obj dribbles it up who else would have the ball LeBron driving past Timmy right to the rim get it tie game 101 a piece why is dribbling it up it's a tie game again winner go home LeBron is on Kawhi in the post it's a bad shot but they get the rebound whoever this guy is wise got it back inside Lebron with the good defense and the board he's got a chance to seal it here he's dribbling up quick he's got time Tim Duncan's on him there's two seconds separating the shot clock in the game clock he's isoing Tim Duncan him he's clamping though LeBron loses it he gets it back three seconds on the shot clock two one the leader for the lead LeBron it's off it's off this first call timeout 1.8 I think we're going to overtime though what is happening and I was certain we were going to overtime especially when the Spurs inbounded it to old ass Tracy McGrady Tracy McGrady for the win did that count no oh my God what [Music] there's no way in his final NBA season Tracy McGrady ripped a championship from LeBron doesn't even care he doesn't even care and so then in the 2014 season LeBron wouldn't get any closer either he would win his two favorite trophies but then get upset as a one seed round two against the Clippers and as for curry well Miami wasn't really working for him anymore and he planned to go back home Steph Curry heads back to Cleveland well aware of what he leaves behind in Miami and with his hometown fan base back on his side Steph would have a great season back with Cleveland as he and Kyrie would carry them to a 56-26 record making a two seed in the east as for LeBron in the dubs they'd have a good season two as a three seed in the west but it would be cut short pretty quickly as they would lose 4-2 against New Orleans I mean this is so sad to witness like actually and it could get more sad for LeBron shortly as Steph Curry and the Cavs went right through the east no team really stood in their way and they would be facing the rockets in the finals he's got to play the Rockets who have Patrick Beverly James Harden Trevor Ariza Chris Bosh I don't know why Chris Bosh is there he's there though and this bashasaurus Rex fluke might have been the only thing saving LeBron from going down 3-0 because the Rockets controlled this series from start to finish and wiped the floor with the Cavs in just five games and so the king being down but far from out I had High Hopes from him in the 2016 season curry in the Cavs would do okay but they'd only be a five seed in the east as for LBJ and the Warriors they had a great season and they were a three seed and I had a feeling this could be the one LeBron is up to a 98 I'm telling you like this this has to be a season please and so as Carmelo Anthony and the Knicks smoked Curry Round One LBJ blew right past the nuggets and seemed to have a real chance Curry got smacked but LeBron is moving on on his quest to get his first championship and the round two Series against New Orleans wouldn't come easy it would go to a game seven but in that game seven LeBron wouldn't leave any room for questions it's over LBJ is going to the Conference Finals he's gonna be tired coming off of this game seven but it doesn't matter and the Conference finals against the Memphis Grizzlies weren't exactly easy either it was a battle but in game six it came down to the wire and LeBron had a chance to close this series out oh no I'm jumping in three-point game 30 seconds LeBron lives for this Andrew Bogut give it to him bro okay what are you doing Bogey's selling get him out of the game man what was that LeBron was wide and boats are and then he bows this dude and they're gonna go down five you could say I was a little upset but bogut's idiocy did not end there okay that one's off that one's off that one's off I just whatever it's over it's this this one's over and Memphis would miss one of the two next free throws so there's a chance LeBron can bail his teammates out once again why do we have him inbounding again this is this is gonna be a disaster all right here's LeBron James okay Draymond what all right okay dream on Tony Allen Tony Allen it's terrible at the line I hate this free throw angle but that's fine Tony Allen's gonna throw a brick up Tony Allen it's a brick it's another brick five seconds 165. Livingston what are you doing we're going for game bang bang let's go what just happened oh my despite Andrew Bogut having an IQ of 16 LeBron still bailed him out advancing to another finals and looking to win his first it's the Knicks the team that took out Curry and admittedly I underestimated the Knicks forzingis and Carmelo put on a shooting Clinic taking this final series to a game seven it's a game seven it's all on the line This is everything this is the biggest game ever on earth and King James of course knew this he knew that he would need to win this game in this championship in order to stay in this race so with that he took the series back to Golden State put up 47 points and blew the Knicks out winning his first championship finally putting himself on the board in this race against Steph but in the 2016 offseason LeBron's chances to tie this thing up increase significantly as Kevin Durant would be leaving the thunder in hopes to win a chip alongside LeBron but Stefan the Cavs would not back down easily they would go 63-19 with the best record in the league and as for the Warriors even with the best roster in the NBA they were only a two seed and they got past round one but got smacked by Utah round two while LeBron and KD are frauds no other way to say it but Curry and Kyrie were as legit as they could be they stomped every team they faced in these playoffs including the Thunder with an MVP Russell Westbrook who they beat 4-1 in the finals Steph Curry Finals MVP Come on talk to him nice now Curry's up three to one on LBJ but this would not be the first time we've seen this so in the next season KD and LBJ would get it figured out now they would be the best team in the NBA and be a one seed in the west as for curry and Cleveland he and the Cavs would have a great regular season again but ultimately they would get upset round one by the 8th seed Milwaukee Bucks Runway is wide open for LeBron to just get a championship he could do it and the King did just that he would rip through every team to the finals where he would face the underdog eight seed bucks and he would get his next championship why does Steve Kerr look like Princess Diana this was now again a one Championship race which made Steph Curry feel threatened so now he'd be making a move this off season they've got breaking news Steph Curry is a Laker and with curry signing with the Lakers in the 2019 season it was somewhat of a rebuild year they would go 29 and 53 and miss the playoffs by a mile but this gave LeBron a real chance to even things LeBron's got a chance to tie things up though it kind of looks like he might do that the LeBron and KD LED Warriors would easily get by Jimmy Butler in the Timberwolves then the Clippers in round two whose best players were Tobias Harris and Lou Williams would really surprise me they would throw hands with this crazy Warriors team taking the series all the way to a game seven and I'll just let the results speak for themselves he's getting smoked by this terrible Clippers team I mean it's over there's nothing there's nothing that can be done this race didn't seem like it'd be getting any easier for LeBron either in the 2019 off-season KD would be going from the Warriors to the Nets so as LeBron loses a crucial teammate Steph would gain one as Anthony Davis now signs with the Lakers and this stuff A.D Duo was disgusting they went 69 and 13. finishing not only with the best record in the league but one of the best all time as for LeBron he had a decent season but only made a five seed in the west and in order to stop this dominant Lakers team from getting a championship he first would have to get by the Grizzlies in round one and he had more than a chance to do that he went back and forth with John Moran the Grizzlies and went to a game seven steps advancing to the second round LeBron's in a game seven this is crucial because I bet Curry goes on to win the finals LBJ had been in this situation count was times before and he fought the Grizzlies going dunk for dunk with John Moran but in the end it just wasn't enough and The Grizzlies are pulling away and I was definitely a little upset for LeBron but it might have not mattered anyway is A.D and Curry would blow by the next two rounds facing him beat in the Sixers in the finals and winning four to one Steph Curry Finals MVP he beat LeBron Steph wins the race to four championships meaning LeBron has had the easier career but between LeBron and Steph who's the better individual player click the center of the screen to find out as I put them in NBA imperialism goat edition
