To be honest it’s crazy seeing Lebron dominate at this age as of now. What was the hype back then like in the early 2000s up until his draft in 03. I was born in 2000 lol. What are some thoughts or stories you guys had back then of Lebron coming up?

Absolutely insane. He was dominating in high school, but I watched the espn high school game and it was like “no way he can do this against grown men in the NBA, he ain’t living up to the hype”. Dude lived up to the hype.
To give it modern context, no #1 pick since Lebron has had anywhere near as much hype as he did. Wembanyama is the closest i’ve seen and I would say he was maybe at 50% of the Lebron hype.
