LaDainian Tomlinson. Jose Reyes. Kobe Bryant. Alexander Ovechkin. Across the four major sports, there are countless athletes that light it up when they take the field. Everyone has their favorite players to watch; whether it be from someone’s favorite team or just some athlete that is a human highlight reel. So tell Sportable: Who is your favorite athlete to watch? Who takes it to that next level every single time?
My answer? LeBron James. I’m not particularly a Cavaliers fan nor am I a die-hard NBA fan but King James is without a doubt my favorite athlete to watch. His ability to quite literally take a game over at any given time combined with his freakish athletic talent make King James one of the best. Remember when he scored the last 25 points in that playoff game versus the Pistons? Exactly. Hail to the King.

I would only pay money to watch two athletes.
Kobe Bryant and A-Rod.
What are you talking about dude, you pay to see athletes all the time. You pay to watch Darrell May.
Okay, I’ll check that. Make it Kobe and A-Rod as my favorite athletes to WATCH.
I’m gonna have to agree with Sonny being that i’ve already paid money to see A-Rod play this season.
As far as guys at the top of their game right now, I’d say LeBron and Cristiano Ronaldo. I’ve seen Kobe play and I see LT play every Sunday. LBJ and Ronaldo are two guys I haven’t seen in person.
alexander ovechkin. dude is a freak.
