LeBron James dominated the Eastern Conference for the majority of his NBA career. He alternated between the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Miami Heat for 15 of his 18-year run in the league so far.

To that effect, LeBron James had the most wins against Eastern Conference teams, seeing as he faced them more than their Western Conference counterparts. The most wins he has had against a team in the West is 28 against the New Orleans Pelicans.

After a successful run in the East, LeBron James is now a member of the LA Lakers and has brought them a championship in three seasons.

The 2021-22 season will be a fun run as the Lakers have built a roster that can compete for the title. If successful, LeBron will go into the history books once again for getting the Lakers their 18th title, the most by any franchise in NBA history.

That said, let's take a look at the top five teams that have recorded the most losses against LeBron James.
