Djfjdidoskslwk Hemejsjskaosjski yeah he was with the cavaliers then Miami heat took him and he made them win the championship 3times in a row then the cavaliers took him back
Wow thats quite good, ive been in North Korea and our superstar player is Kim Jong Un, he's won the finals every single season for past 32 years, averages like 500points a game with 100rebounds and 100assists all while still wearing his collared button up and his black winter jacket and sitting on the sideline, wonder if this James guy can be as good, he reminds me of that Rodman bloke and apparently he was a baller too.
The only thing more insane than the amount of pressure and hype he had coming out of high school....is the fact that he somehow was able to live up to it.
"I just want to play my game, I can score but I can pass too I can rebound I can do so many things to help my team win" Even at 16 this kid was a team first player and you have to respect that
If LeBron was as selfish as Kobe (RIP no disrespect but he was kinda a ball hog) or Harden and plays a lot of ISO I think he might have gotten 45k points by the end of his career.
Damn it's crazy, even as a 16yr old he was still a team player. And he still hangs out with his highschool friends and coach, all of that fame and basketball glory hasn't changed him
I remember watching this in 2005 while in 5 grade. Being in Cleveland the word spread around this guy would be big. It is now 2018 in this man is the greatest basketball player ever. Cavs in 7
TampaOutlaw where the hell u been? For you to say that a year ago. Lebron been in the NBA for the past 14 season and you talking abt you hope he dnt flopp.
posta chyld do you know what it means to flop in basketball? LeBron James does it all the time he is known for it. that is why this guy is making a joke about it
look at the interview wiggins did before he started his first season with kansas. He had the exact same hair as Lebron, their both around the same height. Only difference is eyes. Their weight is also a lil off aswell
I'm a Laker/Knick fan, but I have never been so impressed with how professional a player has conducted themselves. LeBron has been chased after ever since he was 14, and he has handled it like a true Professional. I'm amazed good job Mom!
Congrats to LeBron James at winning his first NBA Championship. Playing with Cleveland was like his college experience since he was so close to home. Going to Miami was like his graduation present.
I saw him play in high school and before that game was not sure anyone could live up to the hype. Well he did and to this day is the best high schooler I ever saw. Even better than Kevin Garnett who was the best until this dude came around. I heard T-Mac was pretty awesome in HS but never saw him play that young.
Love LeBron. Clearly the best player in the NBA right now along with Kevin Durant; and no doubt 1st ballad future hall of famer. But "DAMN BUCKWHEAT"!!!!!!
MultiKingdarius not just a tatoo an ugly ass tatt...i mean what kind of tattoo can you possibly get at 16! lol does he have captn crunch on his arm or GI Joe tatt like cmon...that is why he covered them up LMFAO...i didnt mean to insult your boyfriend sorry ;(
MikeM lol but it's called stress he probably been think of a way to get his folks out the hood and what he's going to do for black folks when he make it big sad but true
Exceeded the hype. No arrests or nonsense. Broke the title drought for Cleveland. Helped build a school for his hometown kids. etc. etc. No wonder so many people hate him. They would've preferred he went the way of fellow Ohio Prep star Maurice Clarrett. That would've allowed the haters to say "See, I told you he would bust".
This kid has a lot of potential. Hope he makes it to the NBA.
Obviously you don't know what sarcasm is.
no worries mate
Nah no way this kid has what it takes. I'd say at the very best he'll end up playing in Europe
chhoeing tenzin he already did
Do you know what sarcasm means? DUMBASS! I swear people these days are so stupid that they their brains are probably made out of stupidity! LOL
He's good but its hard to tell if he will perform well on the next level, hope this kid does well though
hes already in the NBA 😂😂 where have you been all these years?
Jz Frozen24 wow is he doing good?
Djfjdidoskslwk Hemejsjskaosjski yeah he was with the cavaliers then Miami heat took him and he made them win the championship 3times in a row then the cavaliers took him back

The only thing more insane than the amount of pressure and hype he had coming out of high school....is the fact that he somehow was able to live up to it.
That’s why to me he’s the goat man the pressure was to crazy
I think he surpassed the hype.
@@matchingfingerprints Which is really crazy when you think about it.
I know right. My students freeze up when their picture is on the wall because they’re student of the month. This guy’s face was international.
SURPASS IT
This kid is insane. Hopefully he wins that state trophy
ye, lots of potential, should be able to win a couple nba titles and mvps
wow I know right so insane and you're so funny obviously, damn.
@@AlexandrBorschchev ikr thank you so much
Good comment . Just like the other 1,000 from the past couple days .
Yeah I also think that bro that kid has a lot of potential hope he makes it to nba
"I just want to play my game, I can score but I can pass too I can rebound I can do so many things to help my team win" Even at 16 this kid was a team first player and you have to respect that
he's always been a team first guy, the haters can never take that away from him
Yeah a super team first player

@@pikameme3322 dont worry he will be the first one to join the 40k 10k 10k club before he retires
@@cornrowsmelo2601 and now u trying to get a ring off him
Before his hairline took its talents elsewhere
+THE SHEEPGOD Bruh;'D
+THE SHEEPGOD Lmao wtf
@THE SHEEPGOD,I almost shitted on that one.
+Eric Mckinney Lmao w
THE SHEEPGOD now he got spray on hair
Bench warmer at best
Zack krohn Undrafted at best
I heard the guys actually pretty good
Woulda been better if he didn't cut his hair
Yeah hes a high floor/low ceiling type player, id comp him to detlef schrempf
Gon be a bigger bust than Greg Oden
LeBron leaving high school early to enter the 2002 draft would have been nuts
he should have saved some of that hair from the fro and glue it on now
Tuff
Deadlygangsta stupid funny. 😂😂😂😂
Looks like he did...the hairline came back! Have never seen that happen!
😂😂😂
Whatever happened to this bust? Anyone know? Probably bagging groceries somewhere i bet.
Bob Sacamano ikr
Damn it's crazy, even as a 16yr old he was still a team player. And he still hangs out with his highschool friends and coach, all of that fame and basketball glory hasn't changed him
You alive?
@@scopdyisgone lmao
Lmao,hasn't changed him,do you see him away from the camera,the same media is telling his fairy tale today,as it was 17 years ago
@@scopdyisgone hahaha fr
U alive
Why are you people so obsessed with hairlines?
Musicrecords10 ikr
Pretty weird society that we live in lol
This! I mean let's face it, LeBron fine as hell even with the "far back" hairline!
Cookie Khalil let me get that snap
Musicrecords10, let me guess, you are bald. Am I right or am I right? No need to answer, everyone knows I'm right.
Hard to believe he was 16 at the time we all knew he was gonna be great
The Real Deal. I admire him for living up to the hype. Lots of pressure
His documentary going to be the greatest 🐐
Good kid. Hope he makes it.
"This kid is good, but my son is better" LaVar 2017
This kid has no idea how good he is going to be and the impact he will have on the game.
Lebron looking hella homeless in the thumbnail
He was
I remember watching this in 2005 while in 5 grade. Being in Cleveland the word spread around this guy would be big. It is now 2018 in this man is the greatest basketball player ever. Cavs in 7
LOL
"I can do so many things to help my team win."
Goddamn goat statement
my right ear is lonely
Mature as hell at 16.
"There are no days off in the NBA." That used to be a saying? That aged horribly.
Moral of the story, finish high school, play hard and stay humble. Got here from Lenny Cooke's documentary
I call it here first this kid will be a 4x MVP
He was rocking the Macy gray look like a boss back in the day
whatever happened to this kid lebron, he could've been a great
lol are u stupid ? He is in the nba and has won championchips
Mister Glasses he did?
lol hes just won one this season
u dont know anyting bout bball right?
Mister Glasses I don't know a darn thing
so stop talking you probably dont even know micheal jackson? goat in basketball
got that Julius erving cut lol
Lebron needs to bring back the fro. NOW!
From King to GOAT. Strive for greatness.
🐐
His hairline broke up with him his senior year because it was tired of being dry and disrespected
He was that wise when he was 16.... Jesus explains a lot. Love that fro!!
Lebron was 16 in around 2001, why does this look like it was filmed in the mid 80s?
i wonder if he still talks to his 3 best friends from highschool
Prolly does
I hope this guy succeeds in the NBA but I hope he doesnt become a flopper.
TampaOutlaw where the hell u been? For you to say that a year ago. Lebron been in the NBA for the past 14 season and you talking abt you hope he dnt flopp.
posta chyld do you know what it means to flop in basketball? LeBron James does it all the time he is known for it. that is why this guy is making a joke about it
posta chyld when you complain about a flop comment but clearly doesn’t know what flopping is lmao. Boiiiiiiiii
posta chyld It is a joke
Stupid af like you watch basketball. GFOH
Feels like I’m watching this in 2045. Watched this guys entire career, insane and he’s only 5 years older than me
looks almost like wiggins in high school maybe bigger eyes but damn they look similar
NO he does not LOOOL... You're a fool. Wiggins and lebron do not look alike at all.
John Visto their tall nd black, can jump really high, that's enough for people.
look at the interview wiggins did before he started his first season with kansas. He had the exact same hair as Lebron, their both around the same height. Only difference is eyes. Their weight is also a lil off aswell
bdaddymar34
You're ignorant, jealous, dumb and racist, which is quite obvious for everyone on here to see.
bdaddymar34 You're not white or red or black, you're brown, from the boogie down.
His nose is the second biggest thing on his face
His lips. Hahaha you mad?
Paine Yang lold
Paine Yang Huh? His nose is not especially big at all.
Bro idk why u give a shit and more importantly I hope that's not you in your thumbnail because your physique is disgusting
now with 2 rings going to 3
HES A FLOP THOUGH,
DontFuckWitDreDay It's 2014. Not 2012.
now he's the GOAT
At the age of 16 he already knew he was the best.
LeBron James is a truly inspirational athlete. He dominates the game mentally and physically, while also being a great person off the court.
Lebum is finish
His voice in 2001 sounded nothing like how it did when he came to be an adult
boy looked like he recycled cans in the thumbnail
W
Lmbo
damnnnn 😂
Whats wring with recycling?
What's your life now idiot? 😂
ill be following this kids career with great interest.. this kid looks like he got a huge potential for success
Look at LeBron James man....... so inspirational
Even as a teenager he looked old
They were homeless the year before
I'm a Laker/Knick fan, but I have never been so impressed with how professional a player has conducted themselves. LeBron has been chased after ever since he was 14, and he has handled it like a true Professional. I'm amazed good job Mom!
All he gotta do is stay focused and he will be one of the greats in the NBA 💯
Definitely
One day in 2022 he will have 2nd all time scoring. This kids gonna be LeGreat!
@@bwelch you a fortune teller or something?
@@daneladu it's a gift
god: "ill show you for growing an afro"
🐐 you could even tell as a kid he was way ahead of his time. His IQ is extremely high
Congrats to LeBron James at winning his first NBA Championship. Playing with Cleveland was like his college experience since he was so close to home. Going to Miami was like his graduation present.
Yes
wow this is an old comment
wholesome comment
Aged well
A comment that congrats LeBron for his first championship is not something I thought I would see in 2023 😂
his hair line was a bit strange even in highschool. I wanna know who his dad is. He looks exactly like his mom.
why does this look like it was filmed in the 70s?
zachary paris it was in the early 90s
Michael Lightell haha... yes, i realize when this was filmed. my point is that it looks very dated.
Michael Lightell not early 90s lol early 2000s
It’s was somewhere between late 90s and early 2000s
Cinomatix it's early 2000s just do the math. He's a high school junior in the video and he got drafted straight out of high school inn 2003 lol.
This kid is special he def gonna be in the NBA
Recommended for no reason. LeBron already looked and spoke like a 25 year old here, and 30 when he came to the league a couple years later lol
He was an old homeless man with a fro in high school
He looks older than his mom ... like his mom is his daughter.
Your a dumass just stfu you dont know what your saying what are you 80 years old? Gtfo your brain isn't fit enough for basketball and he is 36
***** your point is?
Who here after 30k 10k 10k game bro really became one of the goats
I saw him play in high school and before that game was not sure anyone could live up to the hype. Well he did and to this day is the best high schooler I ever saw. Even better than Kevin Garnett who was the best until this dude came around. I heard T-Mac was pretty awesome in HS but never saw him play that young.

What about now?
@@CoreTradingMastery still pretty close
Fool was already tatted up in High school LOL
MultiKingdarius not just a tatoo an ugly ass tatt...i mean what kind of tattoo can you possibly get at 16! lol does he have captn crunch on his arm or GI Joe tatt like cmon...that is why he covered them up LMFAO...i didnt mean to insult your boyfriend sorry ;(
he had to cover them up because it was the rules. You couldn't have tattoos showing in game...
***** i meant covered them up as got new tattoos to cover the old ones
Ayo what happened to LeHair
lol he looks so different
His hairline always betrayed him
😂😂😂😂😂😂...
His hair divorce him💀💀💀💀💀💀
Vic C I Detected a Bronsexual
Dr Tense I'm not even a curry fan or LeBron fan lol
Man been stressed bout basketball since a kid
Crazy how graphic quality has improved in 20 years
I can't believe recordings from 20 yrs ago look this ancient and I was grown when this was recorded 😂
Those hair tho, he miss them surely
Never heard of this dude he will be a flop in the nba
If he does make the nba I think he will be known for having the best hair
Is that Craig Mack?
16years old lebron is exactly like bryce james now
That guy looks like the nba all star Lebron James wonder if he is as good
doubt he is as good his hairline isn't far back enough
+Mason deLisser hahahahahahaha
Imagine if he became an nba player, damn he could've beat the Warriors in a 3-1 blowout so much potential.
This video definitely aged well and stood the test of time!
lebrons hairline was always that high
The GOAT in the making!!!
pshh, this kid doesn't stand a chance in the NBA.....mark my words. I bet he won't even make it to 5 consecutive finals.
ok.
ok.
1:13 tf when did shaq become 13 years old so quickly
MikeM lol but it's called stress he probably been think of a way to get his folks out the hood and what he's going to do for black folks when he make it big sad but true
16 year old LeBron talking to Tracy McGrady, then went on to prevent that man from getting a ring in 2013 lol
You jacked up for bringing that up lol
Oh look, Delonte West’s son
Well, he wasn't winning any Beauty contests thats for sure......
It's funny when someone sees another person on a TV interview and says wow he's so nice,anyone can be soo nice when the camera is on
It's even funnier when someone insinuates something else.
So talented and so humble, I have a feeling this guy is gonna go places.
Not you tryna copy other people lmao
@@yungsauceee Relax it’s a joke intended to be like the rest of the comments.
Any updates on him now ? Did he make the nba or end up playing overseas?
I'm so Excited for him to be Drafted.
He has the makings of a varsity athlete
He appreciated his hair while he had it
he had spiraling waves back in the early 2000’s… bron had hair fr fr
That young man will become the star of the Space Jam sequel.
This kid looks good. He maybe a future all-star player
His face really hasn't changed 1 bit, he got that Greg Oden face
Still hard to fathom the amount of disrespect by some ppl regarding Bron's career. Exceeded EVERY expectation that was placed upon him,& then some.
Exceeded the hype. No arrests or nonsense. Broke the title drought for Cleveland. Helped build a school for his hometown kids. etc. etc. No wonder so many people hate him. They would've preferred he went the way of fellow Ohio Prep star Maurice Clarrett. That would've allowed the haters to say "See, I told you he would bust".
His mom could have settled the case for goat if he started at 16 he could have def contributed.
looks like he is the only man who can defeat dio's "the world" with the "real world"
Love the LeFro
And here we are, 37,000 points and 6 NBA Finals losses later.
Plot twist- He was originally at another high school and left to St. Vincent St. Mary to go win 2 titles.
