Lebron James And Kobe Bryant Swap Careers

Dwight Howard Moses Malone Tracy McGrady and Kevin Garnett exceeded expectations coming into the league from high school Lebron James and Kobe Bryant did it the best though and today we will be swapping their careers and seeing how it changes NBA history starting off in 1996 where LeBron and Shaq are going to be a deadly Duo for years to come 18 year old LeBron does not wait around for anyone with LeBron winning Rookie of the Year in LeBron's first playoff matchup Jason Kidd upsets the Lakers with Shaq not putting up Prime Shack numbers luckily though over the off season LeBron has gone up from an 84 to an 89 overall and for the first time LeBron makes the first team all-nba in just his second season going up 2-0 against the Trailblazers with game three going down to the final minute again I don't know who's on this team I kind of just want to see how LeBron and Shaq play together good defense from LeBron I believe he got that block Here Comes Perdue down the other end and Shaq gets the steal back what is happening in into LeBron for the dunk it looks like the Lakers are going to be advancing averaging 28 points LeBron and Shaq take down the Timberwolves in six games how did this team make the Conference Finals as expected the Lakers completely sweep the Warriors and will play the Bulls in the NBA Finals who of course have Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen the Lakers take game one pretty easily stealing home court advantage and LeBron putting up 30 points would go up 2-1 in the series MJ inside tough layup and it's good pulls us out take a 3-1 lead it'll be huge great pass to shook he is a little bit injured his back is hurting but yeah Lakers take them out the Shaq is not putting up crazy numbers game five would see another Lakers blowout and LeBron James is beating Michael Jordan in a final series and LeBron James is the youngest Finals MVP in NBA history LeBron has gone up to a 94 overall in LeBron's third season he wins MVP averaging 29.5 points eight rebounds and eight assists and completely wipes out Malone and Stockton in three games then sweeping Sacramento Shaq finally waking up Kevin garnetta joined the Trailblazers but the Lakers have no problem beating them in five games and it's back-to-back NBA finals for the Lakers Allen Iverson and the 76ers have a lot of trouble with this Duo finding himself down 3-1 game five would be a complete blowout this run was far more impressive I think they only lost like one game or something in total and it's once again LeBron James winning his second Finals MVP in a row in the off season LeBron goes from a 94 to a 96 overall while Shaq is not reaching his full potential and is stuck in a 93. 32 points nine rebounds and eight assists but Steve Nash in the sun's force a winner go home in round one and the sun send the Lakers home very early I mean LeBron was is playing unbelievable Shaq played really really bad LeBron will get to a 97 overall and 2001 would be his best season yet LeBron just forced them to give him another MVP playing a weak nuggets team with Paul Pierce okay we're down 2-1 there's just no way we lose the Nuggets right whoa back to back Shaq and LeBron need to figure something out because in two years Kobe is joining the NBA LeBron is averaging 34 points 10 rebounds and eight assists but it looks like the Lakers somehow missed the playoffs this is supposed to be 27 plus Point per game Shaq and he's just not doing what he's supposed to be doing as we enter the 2000s era Jason Kidd has replaced Shaq on the Lakers all right 2003 sees LeBron winning his third MVP Steve Nash keeps moving teams and cooking the Lakers the Lakers don't want to be embarrassed again winning game six and forcing a game seven into Eddie Curry great pass that puts them up six you need a buck oh Owens for three it's good good defense from please always good defense nope that's off rebound LeBron we out LeBron inside misses the layup but Radcliffe is there for the put back screen comes on Curry Steve Nash Fades away for three what a shot from Steve Nash come on yes oh my God he actually missed a Frito come on Don't Force It kid he forced it he forced it LeBron averaged 45 points in the playoffs look at this the Suns have the best chance at Landing Kobe and it's Kobe's Hometown team securing the number one pick where they would of course draft Kobe Bryant Kobe Bryant averaging 20 points five assists is the Rookie of the Year while LeBron continues to make First Team all NBA and Kobe Bryant sweeps the Celtics in his first playoff series LeBron taking down the nuggets in six games both second round teams are below average LeBron's sweeping the Grizzlies while Kobe is down 3-2 to the Miami Heat game six going down to the wire into Wang and he gets an easy layup to go beautiful stop from Kobe Bryant Marshall Inside great pass to Goodwill in game seven that he would win very easily Colby only having 12 in game seven LeBron on as Dallas they have Allen Iverson and Sean Marin and with LeBron's ridiculous numbers and Jason Kidd playing Stellar defense the Lakers go up 3-0 game four getting pretty close forgot they have Allen Iverson into Baker for the easy layoff you've been doing it this whole video basically abroad great passive Jones for the easy layup LeBron is opening the corner he pulls it three it's good the Lakers are headed back to the NBA finals they're playing against Chauncey Billups Alonzo Morning Lakers take a 3-2 lead on the Cavs and LeBron and the Lakers are once again NBA champions and LeBron James another Finals MVP while LeBron celebrates his third Championship Kobe goes up to an 89 overall in the off season but in 2005 LeBron continues to make history how are these stats real Kobe was actually able to lead his team to the number one seed in a pretty weak Eastern Conference and Kobe averages 26 points sweeping the Nets with ease meanwhile Steve Nash has come back to haunt LeBron as Nash takes a 3-1 lead Jackson inside on LeBron here's Walker pulls a mid-range and it's good 20 seconds here 19. out to Eddie Jones he's pulling a three and it's good all right that's one free throw missed and they miss both Fritos but they get the rebound no here's kid though pulling a three that is way off and the rockets are upsetting the Lakers LeBron had 49 10-7 this game still not enough now Kobe has to play Garnett Marbury and the Boston Celtics and quickly takes a 3-2 lead game six is a 76er blowout Kobe advances playing Ray Allen in the heat where 19 year old Colby locks in beating the heat in six games advancing to the finals and in the finals it's the Grizzlies who uh who have uh wow the Grizzlies take a 3-2 lead surprisingly but the 76er is win game six and force a huge game seven it needs to be in Colby's hands right now into Kobe he pulls a three oh my God I may have spoke too soon no need to foul here you tell him Brandy gets a shot up and he misses of course he gets the rebound wow we couldn't even get the rebound in that situation definitely a a good finals run but it's gonna end just short Kobe goes up to a 93 in the off season and LeBron is still on top of the league in 2006 and back-to-back MVPs for LeBron how could you not give him it when he's literally averaging 37 points a game Kobe rematches the Celtics this time beating them in five games and LeBron goes up 3-2 on the Kings averaging 34 points and then destroys the kings in game six advancing to the second round LeBron drops 50 points in this game it's Dwight Howard and the Spurs next and Dwight puts up monster numbers for the Spurs with the series All Tied meanwhile Kobe sweeps the Knicks averaging over 30 points one point in game here hold on a second here's LeBron James driving inside tough layup in school and one for LeBron James here is Murray inviting the ball to Jason Williams what a steal from Jason Kidd oh my God inside kid for the lay well game six would be a Laker LeBron Master Class meanwhile Kobe has a tough Hawks team to beat where the 76ers quickly take a 3-1 lead and ladies and gentlemen it looks like the 76ers are going back to the NBA finals LeBron defeats the Grizzlies in six games and it looks like we get to see our first matchup between Kobe Bryant and LeBron James I'm very surprised the first three games go to the 76ers Lakers win at home LeBron does not want to get swept and game five will go down to the final minutes looks like LeBron is just a little bit injured drives in LBJ tough mid-range it's off look at the ice again Brian inside on LeBron to clamp here comes a screen they go to Sean Bradley Shawn Bradley tough shot it's good LeBron versus Kobe this is what we want to see was that an offensive foul Philly gets free throws what and the 76ers are NBA champions the first time Kobe plays LeBron he's it's emotional it's his first championship bro what is Gerald Wallace doing there man you're a Laker LeBron joins the Miami Heat in the off season with Ray Allen for some reason voters fatigue is a thing for every single person except LeBron in 2K it's also Kobe's first time making an all-nba team feel like he should have made it a while ago looks like Kobe and LeBron are both on top of the East one and two seeds Kobe takes out the Magic in a quick five games and LeBron beats the Bobcats in an easy series setting up a matchup versus Dwyane Wade in the Knicks Kobe rematches the Cavaliers and averages 29 Points meanwhile LeBron has no trouble with the Knicks beating them in an easy five game series and we have an immediate rematch between Kobe and LeBron James and this time it's LeBron going up 2-1 and then wins game four going up 3-1 but it's the 76ers winning back-to-back games coming back from 3-1 to force game seven the 76ers are unable to complete the 3-1 comeback losing by almost 20 in game seven are you serious 59 points and he's back in the NBA Finals once again it's been little bit LeBron has reached his Peak going up 3-1 in the finals with game four getting pretty close Amir Nelson now bro this team is so bad like how is his team in the finals in the first place Warren nice post hook I guess Nelson inside to more what a block from Martin Memphis gets their last shot up but it looks like LeBron James is winning yet another championship Kobe reaches a 95 overall in the off season Once Again Miami and Philly are one and two in the East LeBron takes down the Pacers in six games while Kobe goes through a tough seven game series with the Nets and finally the Cavaliers beat Kobe in the 76ers meanwhile Dwyane Wade is balling out averaging 34 points going up 3-2 game six going down to the final two minutes LeBron drives in floater gets blocked by Amari Stoudemire and then puts up the put back I don't know where Wade is like why would you take out D Wade he's your best player Amare Stoudemire post Fade Away Big Shot Jared Jack with it 19 seconds one second separate shotgun gay clock he loses the ball but gets it back and puts up the layup five seconds left no way LeBron didn't take the shot here comes the screen LeBron pulls a three oh my God in 2009 Kobe finally cuts his hair luckily his haircut boosts him and Kobe Bryant wins his first MVP on the Philadelphia 76ers in 2009 the new MVP takes down the Raptors in six games meanwhile LeBron is in a tough seven game series with the Pacers and they upset the heat in round one while Kobe gets his revenge on the Cavaliers taking them out in five games Kobe Bryant drops 46 points in this game in the Conference Finals it's a young Durant and the Nets Durant goes off forcing Kobe to a game seven game seven will be tight and would see Duran getting the win in 2010 LeBron and Kobe match up in the first round and unlike before it's very close Kobe takes a 3-2 lead on Miami Colby dropping the light 22. LeBron at 46 closing out the series in six Kobe putting up generational numbers setting up a rematch Kevin Durant and the Nets and they also have added 10 Tim Duncan and they completely sweep us Kobe needs help this is like his seventh MVP they just keep giving it to him Colby would face off against Derrick Rose and James Harden and they would beat the 76ers in six games while LeBron gets his revenge on the Pacers winning in seven what a strange team surprisingly they go up 3-1 and game four is a very close game Jermaine O'Neal making a cut into Elton brand layup is good trying to bodies way inside the Bucks play some great defense on LeBron here comes a screen from Ellen bran Ellen Brands that's a big one Rondo inside and he puts it in it's a four-point game with 50 seconds remaining and once again LeBron is out of the playoffs early Chris Boss joins Kobe in Philadelphia meanwhile at the age of 33 LeBron is already number one in all time points with 38 706. unfortunately though is eliminated by Dirk Nowitzki in round one meanwhile Kobe takes a 3-0 lead on the Raptors with game four literally going down to the last minute Brian right now inside tough mid-range 12 11 Millsap fade away and that's missing Kobe's been averaging 29.7 and 10 assists in the playoffs he has been balling and then rematches the Bulls going up 3-1 completely blowing them out in game five and in the Conference Finals beating the Bucks in six games it's been a while and it's against the Trailblazers Ricky Rubio what and it's Philly sweeping through wait did boss steal Kobe's Finals MVP really at age 34 LeBron returns home to the Lakers but at this point Kobe has reached a 99 overall but right before the playoffs goes up for a layup and breaks his leg losing to the Celtics in round one meanwhile LeBron loses him five to the Hornets and in 2014 both LeBron and Kobe barely missed the playoffs then the following season finished last in their conference both rejected to land the one and two pick in 2015 and it falls to four and five 76ers select Chris Taps while the Lakers land Devin Booker with the fifth pick Colby continues to make First Team all NBA while LeBron and the Lakers missed the playoffs once again Kobe is up 3-2 against the Hornets blowing them out in game six and upsets the number two seed it's time for Stephen Curry and the magic where Curry goes up 3-1 game five going down to the wire they go into Kobe Jimmy guarding him this is a good matchup Kobe Bryant inside misses gets his own rebound tips it in comes the screen Steph fading away for three it's good Steph the corner takes on camera pain inside puts in the layup Stephen Curry's taking over Kobe crossover inside inside gets fouled 40 seconds here Steph pushing the pace just easy layup what was that defend Colby in the post Kobe inside easy layup 25 seconds on the clock about five seconds separate shot clock and game clock Curry another three-pointer it's good curry has been lighting it up in the fourth quarter they need a three though Kobe inside takes a two Jimmy plays great defense and it looks like Orlando's Moving On Lebron turns 39 and is at a 91 overall and a rematch with the Orlando Magic goes to seven games game seven going down to the last minute and 30 seconds behind the back cross great passive Jeffries for the dog good defensive Curry poor thing is guessing easy dunk out to Jimmy into always easy dunk Colby here now nine seconds left Kobe Bryant go for the win go for the win Colby for the win no LeBron turns 40 and his last dance will be on the Wizards with Kyrie Kobe Bryant doesn't care about any last dance and wins MVP in the second round it's time for the final Face-Off and Kobe goes up 3-1 on LeBron LeBron's final NBA game would be a loss to Kobe and LeBron drops 17 points in the last game of his career in the next round the Pacers destroy Kobe in the 76ers the best season was when he averaged 39 points his career high was 68. dude was a seven time MVP a four-time NBA champion a 20-time All-Star Lebron hit 50 000 career points which is unheard of and at age 34 Kobe joins the Hawks facing a young Luka dances in the Celtics which would be a classic Kobe Bryant sweep the following round losing to Miami in five games Kobe's stats continue to look great but come playoff time he can't seem to win a series looks like Kobe has joined Charlotte and uh there's literally nothing out here finishing as the 13th seed and Kobe Bryant has retired at the age of 38 what a career for Kobe two-time NBA champion I think he was in the finals like four or five times if you enjoyed this video make sure to like And subscribe and check out these two videos on the screen right now peace boys
