With the offseason moving slowly right now, let’s look back at the career of one of the greatest players in Miami Heat history: LeBron James.

James is, not only, one of the greatest players in Heat history, but he is also one of the best basketball players of all time, as well as one of the greatest athletes in any sport. His splendid combination of athleticism, skill, and IQ have earned him G.O.A.T. status.

LeBron James has been one of the most consistent players throughout his 19-year NBA career.

He has played for three teams, including the Cleveland Cavaliers and currently the Los Angeles Lakers.

On Fox Sports’s Undisputed, Skip Bayless and Shannon Sharpe debated which version of LeBron James they believed to be the best. LeBron’s career could be divided into four parts: his first run in Cleveland, his time with the Miami Heat, his return to Cleveland, and his time with the Lakers.

Shannon Sharpe chose the Miami Heat version of LeBron as the best, while Skip believed that the best version of LeBron James was seen during the second stint with the Cavaliers. To settle it and while all versions of LeBron were incredibly impressive, the Miami Heat version is clearly the best.

Here are a few reasons why.
