LeBron James THROWBACK 2012-2013 Season Highlights // 26.8 PPG, 8.0 RPG, 7.3 APG

This LeBron might be the most complete player we might ever see...

[@therizza3704]

Amen. As others have said, this was arguably the best form of any basketball player - coupled with team success - in history. I'd say a top 3 season of all time, easily. The shooting, passing, efficiency, team success, blocks, defending - all before the NBA entered the ballooned 3-point era with higher PPG. Lebron has and never will be a stat-padder or stat chaser.

[@AkronKid330]

Being able to watch him from middle school to now is unbelievable. WITNESS!!

Not to mention he shot a ridiculous 40% from 3. Literally could do everything in that season

[@jayvon221]

LeHeat James he shot 38% this year yall just got it stuck in your head he cant shoot anymore

[@manuelmejia4670]

alright but its called a throwback when you mention micheal jordan do you think of his horrible days as a wizard

[@aquila519]

jay pullum wrong, he shot 36% which is decent. But he's getting his shot back. It's looking smooth and in the playoffs, he shot like 41% which is a good sign because the past 2 playoffs in Cleveland, he couldn't shoot. So it's just signs of improvement

[@ohmyassoff1087]

if i remember correctly they lost like 2 or 3 games in the second half of the season too. They wouldve had a way better playoff record too if Wade wasn't playing hurt

[@200machine8]

jay pullum 38 is good idiot from 3

[@DwadeFL4SHMV3]

One of the greatest seasons in NBA history by any player

[@razkable]

I wish LeBron cared more about scoring...his team in miami were good enough to play around him...that's role players jobs....they should of won more.but he was too unselfish yet needed the ball in his hands to set up plays like a guard rather than post up or attack ...he needs to care less about assists and more about scoring...be more mj then magic...3-5 aaaists are fine....nobody really cares...its not being selfish..just shoot more...gives your team chances to rebound more ..which is their job...gives defenses less time to react and predict what your doing...sometimes it helps to be a volume shooter.. Keeps player on their heels...dont know when your going to pull up so they stay closer to you so you don't shoot or back up expecting a jumper and you find someone or hit it..

[@arroz154]

Asmosis Jones I agree but to this day it paid off he’s top 4 and soon to be 3 next season in All Time Points and he’s top 10 in assist. All about the Legacy

[@isiahcurry1593]

Asmosis Jones I 100% disagree with your statement. LeBron James is a playmaker. A primary ball-handler. It doesn’t make sense for someone to shoot 20+ shots a game if they’re one of the greatest floor-generals in the NBA. I think you’re judging this based off of this video alone. LeBron made his teammates better when he distributed more. I just do not agree with “Oh, he could’ve won more if he scored more.” If that’s the case then you could’ve said the same thing about Kobe if he “passed more.” Your logic is heavily flawed here. LeBron played his game and it won 2 championships in Miami. They lost to a team that was built off one of the greatest dynasties ever with one of the top breakout players in the NBA. Do not blame that on LeBron being passive.

[@Ahlumjkkk]

2016 curry is much better

[@jordyhitty]

Didn't he shot 41% from 3 that season?

[@MegaAkamara]

Lebron with a jumpshot always spelt disaster and this season proves why

[@wongjames3724]

remember he had a consecutive 6 games with 30pts and 60% FG, should've been 7 if not tried a 3pt vs okc.

Best season ever for a LeBron fan. 27 game winning streak, mvp, finals mvp in the best finals I've ever seen.

[@EmziTV]

The best individual season ever, 66 wins, 27 win streak, The chip, finals mvp, and was robbed of DPOY! Absolute peak Lebron where his bball IQ and Athleticism intersected in 2013. His play style was like a combination of every legend that played the game. Did everything on offense and defense at elite level. No flaws. On top of all of that, he averaged 56% on field goals and 41% from 3 for the season, including a month scoring over 65% and a 6 game stretch where he scored 31ppg on 73% shooting. Sheesh!

The moment when a players athleticism and basketball mind reach their peak at the same time. For MJ it was 1992. For Kobe, 2008. Magic in 1987. It's knowing where you need to be on any play to make a play and then being physically able to beat everyone there every time.

[@ninjachannel007]

Whenever somebody tries to tell me LBJ isn't amoung the top 3 greatest ever, I point them to this season. Zero weaknesses, plus we forget how freakishly athletic he was 7 years ago. I mean, how do you shoot 574 from the field playing this aggressively from outside? The numbers make it seem like he was just getting layups off D.Wade and Bosh taking pressure, but he was shooting a lot of iso pullups over the defense in this vid. He was basically just in the zone all season.

[@BeastyDub]

It was his utter efficiency this season that that sets it apart for me stats wise in Lebron’s career.

[@iKingRev]

Lebron operated as the teams stretch forward and point forward. He had a lot of open looks because of slashing lanes. He was geat because of the offense. Lebron needs to go back to the PF position this season in order to look like this again.
