No NBA player had the amount of pressure Lebron did that night, and he answered spectacularly. For that reason I think it's one of the top 3 playoff performances of all time.
I think Steph had a similar amount of pressure on him in last seasons finals down 2-1 to Boston. It's awesome to see Great athletes not blink in those moments.
@@coldwinter5428 nah Steph's pressure last year was no where near the pressure Lebron had that game. I agree it's awesome to see athletes perform in these moments though.
@@darkequ1nox264 I disagree. People had harped on Steph for never winning a finals mvp for years, even though he should have won it in 2015. He solidified his legacy with that championship and game. That game from him was his careers magnum opus.
“WE didn’t think HE could beat all of us”. That statement alone explains the amount of weight placed on one man. The celtics talked an amazing game, but they’re whole organizations goal was to stop one man, just one, and they’ll tell you they never feared him.
Their whole organization's goal was to win championships. They weren't scared of LeBron because they knew a great PLAYER, no matter how close they got was ever going to beat a great TEAM.
People forget just how vicious the media went at Bron in the days between game 5 and 6. One of the greatest performances you’ll ever see with that kind of pressure
It wasn’t only this series , it’s happened to him all his career . But Miami Heat Villain Lebron was such an entertaining era. There was literally NOTHING he couldn’t do on both ends of the floor. One of the greatest and won’t be any player close to him in our lifetime
and people get mad at lebron because he takes all the credit when they're winning, but what they fail to realize is all the losses he's ever had was put on him too.
Clevelander here. I have watched LeBron since his HS days at St. Vinvent St. Mary’s. I have been a fan ever since. I watched every game of his in Miami that I could. I never understood the hate that he received when he left CLE. I was thrilled when he came back and I watch him to this day. Even in HS, he shared the ball with his teammates, he made everybody better. He was unselfish in his play, and just wanted to win. I will never forget his 4th season against Detroit and in the 4th quarter it was LeBron against Detroit…five against 1, and he was unstoppable. We will never see another LeBron. A once in a lifetime player…..
I was like 15 and I'm 32 now.. that LeBron game 5 ECF against Detroit is still the best performance I've ever seen from an individual player. My jaw was on the floor for a good 30 min. Shit was transcendent
I was born in ‘00 to a laker household and I was a Celtics fan but that day he played in Detroit made me a Lebron fan and I haven’t looked back lol I barely can stand the Celtics now 😂
To this day I think KG saying "we didn't think he could beat all five of us" is so wild. How you gonna say you broke him and then say it took 5 of you. Same with the warriors needing KD it took 4 hof guys same with the spurs it took 4 hof guys. Just a testament to his greatness.
Come on man don’t drag the Spurs into that. It’s not like they did some intensive recruiting to beat him. It was basically the same team. The only team who actually beat him fair and square twice.
@@yahyarajaee5883 I’m not saying they recruited or anything. They had one of the best built teams of all time it’s a testament to their franchise. Spurs are not comparable to the warriors or Celtics in how they built their teams they’re just comparable in having that many hall of famers. Spurs deserve the most credit and respect of all of brons opponents as well as Dallas.
I used to hate Lebron so much when I was younger. Especially as a Mavs fan. But now that I’m older he’s quickly become one of my favorites. Mostly because of what Udonis said. Dude deals with so much unnecessary bullshit and keeps his head on straight and remains humble. Such a good dude

Yeah unbelievable that he’s not really had a big scandal in all these years, got to be so straight laced for nothing to have happened in 20 years of fame
Absolutely same bro. This freakin game was the game I changed my whole perspective. I started looking into his life and I started to feel exactly like UD said he felt. I’ll go out of my way to comment and defend this man 😂
Every person that has played basketball has had that type of game. You feel that you just can’t get tire, you feel lighter, that you can jump higher, everything goes in and as LeBron said, you wish that game never ends.
@@keithymg Not with that much pressure. I think bro is referring to being in the zone when all you see is the hoop. The man in front of you is irrelevant because the level of focus. Nobody has had that type of performance in NBA history with that much on the line. But if you were a good to very good Hooper you've had one of those laser focused moments.
When LeBron career is over, i would love to see a detailed documentary on each season he played, cause this man story, expectations, & accomplishments is crazy, & the background music in this video took this video to another level, i can't quite put into words 💪😂
Yeah man I love good sports documentaries. A LeBron one would be cool as well and I hope that more players get detailed documentaries like the one Jordan and the Bulls got.
The documentary of lebron is going to be multiple seasons. The last dance was cool and all but when Lebron retires everyone is going to realize what we saw over a 20+ year span. My GOAT
Lmao they say it’s because Lebron controls the media and the NBA makes them say those things in favor of Lebron. And I’m not joking, I’ve seen that said many times
*This shit is unbelievable and it's just one about ONE game. Imagine how crazy the LeBron documentary about his whole CAREER is gonna be like. I can't wait.*
@@KingJ259 This narrative is so stupid. Today the defense in the NBA is better than ever. Stronger and more versatile defensive schemes, better athleticism, more elite guard and rim defenders. Scoring is so much higher now because of the influence of the 3 pointer and how much better everyone is on offense.
@@mmmihir It's not just about 3 pointers and skill increasing, it's also about possessions per game. The ball switches hands more because the tempo in general is a lot faster in today's game; leading to more shot attempts.
@@mmmihir you clearly don’t watch games today so many players just let people pass them don’t jump with eachother. You had to work to get every basket back then now people give up way to easily on defense.
@@blakeplazola999 You are such a casual its unbelievable. Actually go and watch film from entire games in the 80s and 90s. Their defenses were so poor on a tactical level.
@@The_Real_Kal-ElYou live in this delusional world like most casuals who believe the media bs. They were buddy buddy back then too. They'll paint a picture like Detroit and Jordan just hated eachother so much but Jordan was helping IT up off the ground on some buddy buddy shit.
No lie…. as a Celtics fan this is my first time revisiting these highlights after over 10 years. It hurt too much back then. I’ll never forget watching this game in my dads room in 10th grade. I was so sure we would win that series. Watching the shots this man make, I was speechless from the first few mins in the game because after those first few shots you could tell he was dialed in. I don’t think anyone expected that out of Lebron. I remember all the narratives at the time. The rest is history.
@@georgestamatakis697 You must not realize how good those “old guys” were. On top of the fact that Lebron and his team had collapsed the year prior in the Finals against Mavs (more “old guys”). That narrative was very much real whether you want to admit it or not. Sorry that you’re either too young or arrogant to remember.
@@osmeltorres07 I mean if you say so…. I just know what the narrative was at the time. Easy to say that 10 years later. Celtics fans understand this better than most.
@@gotone2513 i have been watching basketball since 1987 i have watched way more games that you can possibly fathom. 2011 failure doesn't make his 2012 performance great. What was taken for granted for MJ was questionable for LeBron
The beat drop with the smile at 13:08 was beautiful. Had me smiling with him. Incredible editing here and, as a new subscriber, I'm excited to start binging.
I still think the game Lebron had against the Pistons in 2007, game 5, was the greatest thing I've ever seen watching live... Scored 25/29 of the Cavs last points 4thQT-2OT... Clutch shots, game wining shot... Pure domination It was simply nuts, and it was hard to believe what you were watching considering the Pistons Defense at the time...
“We didn’t fear Lebron because we didn’t think he could beat all 5 of us.” That alone speaks volumes as to how they actually did fear Lebron. Notice he didn’t say “Lebron couldn’t beat me” or “Lebron couldn’t beat me and so and so.” No my guy, it took all 5 of them to try and stop that man, and fail.
@@georgestamatakis697 so what we don’t criticize scientist when they don’t make a break through scientific discovery or surgeons when they can’t save someone in critical condition. No one succeeds all the time
I’ve been on maybe 2-3 day binge of just watching lebron stories/mini docs on TH-cam and man I’m more and more impressed. He was already my goat but with the more stories I hear the further he gets set apart. All respect to the other goats like MJ Kareem Russell Duncan, but he’s the definition of basketball
exactly what about russell, malone and stockton the only superteam that could've went 82-0 and undefeated in the playoffs if stern didn't fix their games
Lebron made it commplace tho by jumping ship 3 different times. Nane one other great inna goat debate who has jumped as much. Mj didn't. Kobe nope. Duncan nah.
Man Lebron has given some of the most memorable playoff experiences in my lifetime. Game 6 in Boston is one of the greatest games ever. The world was against Lebron at this point, elimination game after choking against the Mavs. So much at stake. Im just glad I was a fan over his career and not a hater. I truly appreciate greatness
Like brooo, who else are you gonna enjoy then see dominating and giving you a bang for your buck, bang for your time, bang for your enjoyment and just give you that crazy hype feeling consistently for 20 years. Yeah these Haters are so dumb that they won't get any of that probably ever in their lifetime again 😂

You know at this point it's so wild that people still hate on LeBron the way they do. It's almost creepy and weird. All he's done is entertaining the s*** out of us for 20 years. When I think about the pressure and the level of competition LeBron is faced over the years. My personal opinion LeBron is to GOAT.
I love the effort and time you spent on this. Around 8:00 When Lebron was talking about the moves and you went and found clips of the moves he was talking about. The fact you went through all those different interviews and matched them all up. This is high level editing and I appreciate it as a viewer. I’m watching it like damn this could be a mini-doc on espn or something. Great job
He was unstoppable that game. Determined to win. Boston, Toronto, Chicago , Wizards, Pacers these 5 teams have stories to tell about that man Mr. James in the eastern conference
@G Money nah they trash....... Lebron trashed them..... all those teams had multiple all stars....... Bron was just that damn good....... his 4 rings and 4 FMVPs can tell you that
FACTS!!! people always say Bron is micheal and magic but I feel like it's some wilt in him too. Because wilt was always criticized for getting to the finals and losing. But everybody knew he was better than russell but russell had the teams. Make it so bad wilt average 50 and russell got mvp. HOW!!!
@@dja1647 man where is the reach? Bill wasn’t on the same level as Wilt, numbers confirm that. Michael had better teams than lebrons teams period. 95-96 bulls was and still is better than any lebron team assembled minus the 2012-13 heat. One could argue the 2016 cavs were one of the greatest teams assembled over one of Jordan’s teams. But lebron shouldn’t be compared to MJ more like magic, wilt and Kareem. Can even throw cats like Oscar Robertson in there too.
Nahh it ain't ultra instict, it's called "zone", I've experience it once too, when you're too focused on something, you'll feel nothing and everything slows down.
@@Footagepro363 same brother. 31 now. i'll never forget reading about him, oddly enough, in a sports book i snagged from the Scholastic BookFair lmao. no disrespect to MJ or Kobe, but he's my GOAT for certain.
I live in Cleveland. Lebron left Cleveland, as was his right, for Miami. It didn't sit well with many here. Lebron heard about it. he knew about it. When the time came, he came back. He acknowledged he didn't handle it right. He took responsibility for his actions. He did what he said he would, and brought a championship home. Lebron said I am going to build s school for underprivledged kids. I am going to make sure they have a chance. He did it. There are kids in college today, getting a chance because he is the person he is. One thing I know. NEVER bet against Lebron, and if he says he is going to do something, he will. Oh yeah- down 3 to 1 in the 2016 finals against the Warriors. (did you just READ THAT???). I never said "oh, well, I knew they would come back", but. I thought it. I beleived it. THEY did it.
4 rings in 20 years, building superteams and roaming around like the bum he is. You have very low expectations from the athletes you praise. On the other hand you live in Ohio.....
I remember watching this game with a buddy of mine who is a crazy Celtics fan...when he gave that look, I turned to my man and said, "Bruh, the game and series is OVER!" Bron has snapped, a switch has been flipped! He thought I was crazy...the rest is history. He ain't talked to me since.
It’s funny to hear Garnett say “we and us” and “him”. Three to five against one. He doesn’t say team to team it was all focus on LeBron…And they’re grown men. 😂😂
the "we broke lebron" line never gets old. they literally assembled the boston big 3 just to get by the one man lebron cavs. and the bron ended KGs career in Boston AND Brooklyn xD
I'll never forget watching this live and being in awe. What he did that night was amazing. His 51 points in Game 1 of the 2018 finals i think was a better performance, but his teammates ruined it and they lost in OT.
Bro his best playoff performance is easily not 1, he has to many starting with Detroit before he even got his hands on Boston n golden state.. I keep telling people, the best Lebron ever was from 07-10 before he went to Miami!!
Underrated comment. That game spawned a whole legion of fellas who could once again swagger into their offices, school hallways and factory floors 😅 Legend.
many people don't seem to understand that to be great at basketball, it's not just the ability to perform in the court but also to understand the game and exactly calling out opponent's play.. outplaying players and outsmarting the coach is just another type of level a player can ever possess and the fact the Bron went to crazy consecutive Finals appearances just because of that, is exactly the reason why he deserves to belong in GOAT topics.. dude is just the perfect definition of what a Captain supposed to be, truly real leader
My man’s just making up shit now That’s how myths are created Years from now ppl will say Lebron did all that while in a wheel chair with one eye and battling the flu after his cat died
@@simonhowell4486 it's just their ERA of basketball. This era too soft trading jerseys and sh!t. They always respected LeBron but as competitors they want to f*ck LeBron up mentally and physically on the court
I remember watching this game vividly.. i couldn't believe what i was watching it was the most unbelievable elimination game performance I've ever seen in my entire life.. and that includes his 3-1 comeback against the Warriors.. never seen anyone perform with their backs against the wall like that
Being in the zone as a athlete is something different, like Bron said you never know when it’s gonna come but when it does it’s like nothing else. Your so locked in it’s like your tapping into a new state of mind
I remember playing hs football we made it to the playoffs.. bruh when you locked in and get that tunnel vision it's like you can't see anything else but the endzone or in my case the ball carrier (I played defense)
Bruh i been dealing w injuries my last year of college and the few games i was able to play and really tapped in its almost euphoric, just the amount of endorphins knowing ur absolutely locked in and every move is calculated
@@smallcheddar3012now imagine being in a 6’9 260 frame of pure muscle and like a 50 Inch vert , add to that magic like passing and just that knack for the game .
Yeah that’s what’s called a flow state. Mahomes reached thst during the Super Bowl last year and when it’s going you are not stopping it. People doing something at its highest level, you never know how long it’ll last but you are lethal performance wise. It’s cool when you catch it during the games.
I played snooker for some time and just for a few moments in that time spane I was really in the 'zone' and of what I remember how it feels, that it is so true to you. The holes actually get bigger and you KNOW that you won't miss the next shot. It's an amazing feeling, but like you said, you never can put yourself to it, because it just happens, if you are not MJ.
I will never forget this moment. Even if I never watched NBA basketball again and didnt care for the sport, id still never forget this moment. Watching Lebron pregame was like that eerie silence before a tornado. You could just tell that something was different. What a legendary moment in sports history and the fact that we have a picture of Lebron that tells the entire story is just a cherry on top.
This video is a masterpiece!!! Thank you for putting in all the work, everyone who watched it was able to relive this moment and even ppl who haven’t watched it are allowed to witness LeBron‘s greatness and the reason why we call him the king!
@George Stamatakis LeBron has possibly the greatest single playoff performance in NBA history, and you say he almost had another meltdown?? Do you hear how stupid you sound? Nvm, let me answer that for you. Obviously not, or else you wouldn't say something so damn stupid
I remember watching that game. When he did that put back dunk and they showed his face during some free throws, I knew we were losing. I never seen that look in Bron eyes before… it was like he let go of everything and said they’d have to kill me before I lose. Definitely his best performance imo.
@@trotiersirin4573Kobe never had a playoff game that sniffs this performance by LeBron.. or the 48 Detroit special or the 51 in game 1 of the finals LeBron is on another level. Now MJ yes he's had those moments as well
I remember the game. Le👑 had one of the most phenomenal, dominating performances I’ve seen. He pull-up and shot jumpers from every area around & in the paint. Then, there’s the dunks! Umph!
The playoff rivalry between the heat and the Celtics and the heat and the pacers I will never forget. What an amazing time to be a young heat fan. It was the dawn of the super teams we are all used to and take for granted now, but back then it was really special.
the best superteam of all time was the 98' jazz u moron russell, stockton, malone they couldve went 82-0 had it not been for david stern fixing the games
Than man hates Lebron for some reason… only known yo him… could see it in his eyes… every single time someone good speaks about Lebron he’s like that..
I remember watching this live with all the Bron narrative’s and all the pressure to win this game. Saw that look in his eyes before the game and felt a sense of fear rush over me. Everything felt different. Never had a doubt he’d play a good game but this was something else he wasn’t going to let them lose that game
@@becoolthisisarobberyit’s hilarious because he’s admitting it takes all 5 just to beat Bron. He couldn’t do it himself left the West because Duncan owned him.
A native of SoFlo here. Those Heat/ Celtics games were so freaking intense. And the ironic part of it for me was that I consider Kevin Garnett the greatest power forward of his generation. And I LOOOVE my hometown Heat. I couldn't lose and I couldn't win. I was torn. 🤦🏻
Many people don't like him, and I don't understand why? The things he have achieved at his age is outstanding. Not only as basketball player, but as a human being as well.
He’s arrogant and he’s a hypocrite mainly. Most fans expect people of extreme privilege to acknowledge their privilege and be humble. Think Tim Duncan or Steph Curry. Also, it’s normal now for superstars to leave their team to go ring chase but I’m not sure people really understand or remember how much that pissed off pretty much anyone born before like 1975. Fans, media, former players. Superstars simply didn’t leave 60 win teams to go play with their biggest conference rival. It was seen at the time as a complete and utter lack of competitiveness, loyalty, fortitude and mental toughness. He was Wilt 2.0
@@michaelahurtSo basically you don’t like Lebron because he didn’t follow what everyone else was doing 28 years before he was playing? 😭 sit yo old ass down!
That man was born for this reason. If he doesn't stop himself, he's invincible. No... he doesn't win everything, but his legacy... his impact on this world is assured.
Labron, is the truest example of a dignitary for the human condition anyone can strive to be. He stands tall and takes all the weight on his shoulders for us all. A real life Superman as humble and majestic as a 747 jet bringing everybody home from some unknown hell appointed to us all. Thanks LBJ for bringing us home you’re one of the few who could take all of our dreams and aspirations on your capable 6’9 frame and land us all home safe, sound and victorious. It has been a pleasure having you on and off the court fighting for us in every capacity, God has blessed you and you gave it all to us. Thank you.
LeBron James dragged most of his teams kicking and screaming against him into the NBA Finals. He was the underdog in virtually all of the Finals in who he played. He played at a superhuman level in most of those series.
First of all that's absolutely not true. Especially in Miami and LA and he was favored against Dallas and laid an egg. He average 17 points for the series.
@@percoworld_1557 kobe had been to 3 straight finals and on the down slide. Everyone don't use PED'S to prolong their career. LeBron was on his first super team and in his prime. He got embarrassed by Dirk. I guess you also forgot Dwight Howard sent him fishing the year he was suppose to met Kobe in the Finals.
"we didn't fear lebron and we didnt think he could beat all 5 of us." xD KG the type of dude that gets his 4 bully friends to beat up one guy and he still loses xD
This is why LBJ is so awesome, his effect on the game is like a force of nature, KG mentions fear as if their emotions matter in the slightest. This is like saying I’m not afraid of the power of the ocean, regardless of how u FEEL about it, those waves are gonna hit the beach, there is no stopping it
If there was ever a time where LeBron showed that he had the killer instinct like MJ or Kobe, it was during this series. He was so focused and so serious, it was like witnessing a DARK side of him to where you didn’t really see him as the LeBron we’ve all come to know over the years. He was someone else and somewhere else mentally and he completely dominated in that game with no show of emotion.
If only he did that to the Celtics when they were in their primes lol. He went to the Heat because he couldn’t beat them. Heat in their primes against Celtics in their primes I’ll take the Celtics all day.
The awesome thing about Charles Barkley saying 'you need to tell your team get on my back we're going to win game 6 and game 7', is that Charles did say exactly that to his team in the Suns facing elimination in the Western conference finals against the sonics before his historic game 7 performance of 44 points and 24 rebounds to carry his team to the nba finals
I watched this game as a Heat fan, screaming expletives at the TV every single shot, every moment, at the masterpiece that was being laid down by LeBron.
As a spoiled Boston fan, Game 6 of this series was the #2 most confident and cocky I’ve ever been as a sports fan, only #2 to the Pats 18-0 season going into that Super Bowl against the NY Giants. LeBron showed out and we were absolutely floored by his performance. Mf was locked in from the jump and it was obvious he laid it all on the line
He gets so much hate. Some of it might be deserved, but no other athlete in history has had so much pressure on him to live up to the hype. ESPN was televising this guy's high school games when he was 16. He didn't just live up to the hype, he exceeded it beyond anyone's expectations. We probably won't see anything like it again in our lifetime.
Social media plays a role in all this the fact that every thing is reported in a instant I have been watching nba for 45 yrs Lebron is not in my top ten. If I was curry you would have a hard time convincing that LeBron is better than me
Watching this game in real time gave me a feeling that has never been replicated by a sports althete since then i felt like i was watching the greatest of all time leading up to this game the hate lebron got was out of this world so to see him go and do this all with a lifeless stare just showed how much of a true cold blooded killer he can be when you pushed him to that place this was one of the few games ive ever seen lebron go 100%
@G Money Bro stop Reaching 😂 Michael Jordan beat an aging Larry Bird and aging Magic Johnson and aging Isiah Thomas to. In the NBA that’s how It goes players get older and the talent gets younger.

Yes, they each have their warts, neither is perfect. Just appreciate that we're gifted to enjoy they both.
No NBA player had the amount of pressure Lebron did that night, and he answered spectacularly. For that reason I think it's one of the top 3 playoff performances of all time.
I still think it's the best game he's ever played. He looked like he had no soul that night, expressionless face

Clevelander here. I have watched LeBron since his HS days at
St. Vinvent St. Mary’s. I have been a fan ever since. I watched every game of his in Miami that I could. I never understood the hate that he received when he left CLE. I was thrilled when he came back and I watch him to this day.
Even in HS, he shared the ball with his teammates, he made everybody better. He was unselfish in his play, and just wanted to win.
I will never forget his 4th season against Detroit and in the 4th quarter it was LeBron against Detroit…five against 1, and he was unstoppable.
We will never see another LeBron. A once in a lifetime player…..
It's because he's a cry baby

I was born in ‘00 to a laker household and I was a Celtics fan but that day he played in Detroit made me a Lebron fan and I haven’t looked back lol I barely can stand the Celtics now 😂
To this day I think KG saying "we didn't think he could beat all five of us" is so wild. How you gonna say you broke him and then say it took 5 of you. Same with the warriors needing KD it took 4 hof guys same with the spurs it took 4 hof guys. Just a testament to his greatness.
Come on man don’t drag the Spurs into that. It’s not like they did some intensive recruiting to beat him. It was basically the same team. The only team who actually beat him fair and square twice.
@@yahyarajaee5883 I’m not saying they recruited or anything. They had one of the best built teams of all time it’s a testament to their franchise. Spurs are not comparable to the warriors or Celtics in how they built their teams they’re just comparable in having that many hall of famers. Spurs deserve the most credit and respect of all of brons opponents as well as Dallas.
There is no way in hell the warriors have 4 hof guys from those championship years. Thompson & Green will not be in the hof.
@@timmarshall2491 you’re delusional
@@JohnnyDahabra You are if you think they will have the creds to get in.
I used to hate Lebron so much when I was younger. Especially as a Mavs fan. But now that I’m older he’s quickly become one of my favorites. Mostly because of what Udonis said. Dude deals with so much unnecessary bullshit and keeps his head on straight and remains humble. Such a good dude

They want to control the mind of the elect of the 1/3. They can change the taste buds of the elect for the food to taste nasty. As an elect, they want me to take the mark of the beast. They don't let me sleep. They don't want any deliverance.

Yeah unbelievable that he’s not really had a big scandal in all these years, got to be so straight laced for nothing to have happened in 20 years of fame
Absolutely same bro. This freakin game was the game I changed my whole perspective. I started looking into his life and I started to feel exactly like UD said he felt. I’ll go out of my way to comment and defend this man 😂
Hate is a word that’s so fkn cringe
Humble 😂. dude has chosen one tattooed on his back and calls himself the goat
Every person that has played basketball has had that type of game. You feel that you just can’t get tire, you feel lighter, that you can jump higher, everything goes in and as LeBron said, you wish that game never ends.
To compare anyone who played basketball has had that type of game is wild. That's probably a top 3 nba playoffs performance.
@@keithymg Not with that much pressure. I think bro is referring to being in the zone when all you see is the hoop. The man in front of you is irrelevant because the level of focus. Nobody has had that type of performance in NBA history with that much on the line. But if you were a good to very good Hooper you've had one of those laser focused moments.
You don't have to be a pro baller to have a similar feeling. @@keithymg

When LeBron career is over, i would love to see a detailed documentary on each season he played, cause this man story, expectations, & accomplishments is crazy, & the background music in this video took this video to another level, i can't quite put into words 💪😂
He's got his own media company that's basically been documenting his life since he joined the NBA. His "Last Dance" is going to be incredible!
Yeah man I love good sports documentaries. A LeBron one would be cool as well and I hope that more players get detailed documentaries like the one Jordan and the Bulls got.
Exactly, every season
It’s gonna be a story book ending with him and his son on the court together. 🫡💯
I fully expect a documentary similar to "The Last Dance" to be made about LeBron's career --- it would be criminal NOT to do one!
The documentary of lebron is going to be multiple seasons. The last dance was cool and all but when Lebron retires everyone is going to realize what we saw over a 20+ year span. My GOAT

He breaks every narration they painted against a civilization on the biggest stage s on all levels highly intelligent and positively driven.

@@KingJ259 This narrative is so stupid. Today the defense in the NBA is better than ever. Stronger and more versatile defensive schemes, better athleticism, more elite guard and rim defenders. Scoring is so much higher now because of the influence of the 3 pointer and how much better everyone is on offense.
@@mmmihir It's not just about 3 pointers and skill increasing, it's also about possessions per game. The ball switches hands more because the tempo in general is a lot faster in today's game; leading to more shot attempts.

No lie…. as a Celtics fan this is my first time revisiting these highlights after over 10 years. It hurt too much back then. I’ll never forget watching this game in my dads room in 10th grade. I was so sure we would win that series. Watching the shots this man make, I was speechless from the first few mins in the game because after those first few shots you could tell he was dialed in. I don’t think anyone expected that out of Lebron. I remember all the narratives at the time. The rest is history.
Expected what? The best player on the planet at the time playing against old guys 35+ ? Come on dude
We expected it down here in Miami.
@@georgestamatakis697 You must not realize how good those “old guys” were. On top of the fact that Lebron and his team had collapsed the year prior in the Finals against Mavs (more “old guys”). That narrative was very much real whether you want to admit it or not. Sorry that you’re either too young or arrogant to remember.
@@osmeltorres07 I mean if you say so…. I just know what the narrative was at the time. Easy to say that 10 years later. Celtics fans understand this better than most.

The beat drop with the smile at 13:08 was beautiful. Had me smiling with him. Incredible editing here and, as a new subscriber, I'm excited to start binging.
I still think the game Lebron had against the Pistons in 2007, game 5, was the greatest thing I've ever seen watching live... Scored 25/29 of the Cavs last points 4thQT-2OT... Clutch shots, game wining shot... Pure domination
It was simply nuts, and it was hard to believe what you were watching considering the Pistons Defense at the time...
Exactly what I was thinking. That 4th Qtr still haunts me as a Pistons fan!
Absolutely agree with you.
Yeah that pistons game was ridiculous. LBJ's coming out party
Fact
Difference is he murdered Celtics all by himself vs He fought Pistons all by himself
“We didn’t fear Lebron because we didn’t think he could beat all 5 of us.”
That alone speaks volumes as to how they actually did fear Lebron. Notice he didn’t say “Lebron couldn’t beat me” or “Lebron couldn’t beat me and so and so.”
No my guy, it took all 5 of them to try and stop that man, and fail.
They succeeded in 2008 and 2010.

Absolutely ask Charles Barkley and shak they will tell you bf Lebron James time!😂😂😂

Lebron made it commplace tho by jumping ship 3 different times. Nane one other great inna goat debate who has jumped as much. Mj didn't. Kobe nope. Duncan nah.
Man Lebron has given some of the most memorable playoff experiences in my lifetime. Game 6 in Boston is one of the greatest games ever. The world was against Lebron at this point, elimination game after choking against the Mavs. So much at stake. Im just glad I was a fan over his career and not a hater. I truly appreciate greatness
Like brooo, who else are you gonna enjoy then see dominating and giving you a bang for your buck, bang for your time, bang for your enjoyment and just give you that crazy hype feeling consistently for 20 years.

The fact you went through all those different interviews and matched them all up. This is high level editing and I appreciate it as a viewer. I’m watching it like damn this could be a mini-doc on espn or something. Great job

UD is a real one...type of friend EVERYONE needs
I live in Cleveland. Lebron left Cleveland, as was his right, for Miami. It didn't sit well with many here. Lebron heard about it. he knew about it. When the time came, he came back. He acknowledged he didn't handle it right. He took responsibility for his actions. He did what he said he would, and brought a championship home.
Lebron said I am going to build s school for underprivledged kids. I am going to make sure they have a chance. He did it. There are kids in college today, getting a chance because he is the person he is.
One thing I know. NEVER bet against Lebron, and if he says he is going to do something, he will.
Oh yeah- down 3 to 1 in the 2016 finals against the Warriors. (did you just READ THAT???). I never said "oh, well, I knew they would come back", but. I thought it. I beleived it. THEY did it.

Many people don't like him, and I don't understand why? The things he have achieved at his age is outstanding. Not only as basketball player, but as a human being as well.
He’s arrogant and he’s a hypocrite mainly.
Most fans expect people of extreme privilege to acknowledge their privilege and be humble. Think Tim Duncan or Steph Curry.
Also, it’s normal now for superstars to leave their team to go ring chase but I’m not sure people really understand or remember how much that pissed off pretty much anyone born before like 1975. Fans, media, former players. Superstars simply didn’t leave 60 win teams to go play with their biggest conference rival. It was seen at the time as a complete and utter lack of competitiveness, loyalty, fortitude and mental toughness. He was Wilt 2.0
@@michaelahurtSo basically you don’t like Lebron because he didn’t follow what everyone else was doing 28 years before he was playing? 😭 sit yo old ass down!
@@michaelahurt I didn’t know you knew LeBron personally damn that’s crazy
@@vonkira7436 Yes because people only have opinions on people they’ve met personally. Are you new here?
He asked why. That’s why.
People are mad because he empowered players to leave incompetent franchises, the same people that say “change is bad”
That man was born for this reason. If he doesn't stop himself, he's invincible. No... he doesn't win everything, but his legacy... his impact on this world is assured.
Gay
@@Blk9698 facts
@Brandon Golets are you saying LeBron James is "gay"?
@@Franchizzy are you saying LeBron James is gay?
@@garylsimmons7255 no you are for riding his meat
Whats crazy is he did the exact same thing 6 years later in game 6 against Boston down 3-2 I think with 46 points that game
best shit ive seen live was that run
If I'm not mistaken, he played all of game 7 without sitting once, right?
@@ShonkTeHonktalks The only rest he had was halftime lmao
Labron, is the truest example of a dignitary for the human condition anyone can strive to be. He stands tall and takes all the weight on his shoulders for us all. A real life Superman as humble and majestic as a 747 jet bringing everybody home from some unknown hell appointed to us all. Thanks LBJ for bringing us home you’re one of the few who could take all of our dreams and aspirations on your capable 6’9 frame and land us all home safe, sound and victorious. It has been a pleasure having you on and off the court fighting for us in every capacity, God has blessed you and you gave it all to us. Thank you.
That lebron stare is the stuff of nightmares
Isn't it a thing pros are saying..... that nobody fears LBJ? Just a rumor going around that I heard.
@@wattwatkins3574no that’s what media people like Steven a say
@@smoke7792 You sure? Just Stephan A?
@@wattwatkins3574 and Mario charmers who called Lebron the B word and got pressed right after
@@smoke7792 can't think of anymore?
LeBron James dragged most of his teams kicking and screaming against him into the NBA Finals. He was the underdog in virtually all of the Finals in who he played. He played at a superhuman level in most of those series.
He was favored against Dallas
@@Bigb1911that same dallas team shitted on kobe’s lakers that same year
First of all that's absolutely not true. Especially in Miami and LA and he was favored against Dallas and laid an egg. He average 17 points for the series.
@@percoworld_1557 kobe had been to 3 straight finals and on the down slide. Everyone don't use PED'S to prolong their career. LeBron was on his first super team and in his prime. He got embarrassed by Dirk. I guess you also forgot Dwight Howard sent him fishing the year he was suppose to met Kobe in the Finals.
@@Bigb1911 who kobe had as a teammate in da lakers remind me
"we didn't fear lebron and we didnt think he could beat all 5 of us." xD
KG the type of dude that gets his 4 bully friends to beat up one guy and he still loses xD
This is why LBJ is so awesome, his effect on the game is like a force of nature, KG mentions fear as if their emotions matter in the slightest. This is like saying I’m not afraid of the power of the ocean, regardless of how u FEEL about it, those waves are gonna hit the beach, there is no stopping it
No KG is being respectful. He’s a trash talker but he’s honorable.
I felt 100 different emotions in that “yeah”KG said in the clip with Paul pierce 😂
Guy goes supernova with everything on the line, dude was like Hercules or Achilles this game, he was more than a man for that particular 48 minutes
I don't know why, but that handshake and look between Miller and Bron is cold AF.
Rondo also had an all time playoff performance earlier in the series, 44 10 and 8 with 3 steals on 67 percent shooting
Wow totally forgot about that. Watched the gang with my girl. She doesn’t really watched basketball and I remember her saying wow he’s good
Great job with this video! If ESPN hired you guys to make these types of series as their daily shows they'd get out of the slump. Great job.
that "yeah" by KG when Pierce asked if Bron was the greatest scorer ever
Pretty crazy how the perfect bball body and perfect bball mind converged into Lebron.
Never thought about it like that
Don't forget perfect work ethic.
If there was ever a time where LeBron showed that he had the killer instinct like MJ or Kobe, it was during this series. He was so focused and so serious, it was like witnessing a DARK side of him to where you didn’t really see him as the LeBron we’ve all come to know over the years. He was someone else and somewhere else mentally and he completely dominated in that game with no show of emotion.
The utter lack of emotion was almost frightening. He looked like a Terminator out there.
If only he did that to the Celtics when they were in their primes lol. He went to the Heat because he couldn’t beat them. Heat in their primes against Celtics in their primes I’ll take the Celtics all day.
And had he kept it, he would have 8 ships and it would be undebatable.
@@The_Real_Kal-El Another Lebron hater, Prime Heat >>>
@@DavidHoopz 😂
EXCELLENT production !
I don't care what the hell the media says, THIS is Lebron James greatest game. Period.
That series against Detroit when he was in Cleveland had helleva games too
I agree
Agreed
I love gm 2 2015 vs golden st
It's between this and game 5 of the 2007 ECF vs Detroit. His best series is the 2016 NBA finals
The awesome thing about Charles Barkley saying 'you need to tell your team get on my back we're going to win game 6 and game 7', is that Charles did say exactly that to his team in the Suns facing elimination in the Western conference finals against the sonics before his historic game 7 performance of 44 points and 24 rebounds to carry his team to the nba finals
I watched this game as a Heat fan, screaming expletives at the TV every single shot, every moment, at the masterpiece that was being laid down by LeBron.
As a spoiled Boston fan, Game 6 of this series was the #2 most confident and cocky I’ve ever been as a sports fan, only #2 to the Pats 18-0 season going into that Super Bowl against the NY Giants.
LeBron showed out and we were absolutely floored by his performance. Mf was locked in from the jump and it was obvious he laid it all on the line
An unfathomable moment. I’m no lebron fan, but a truly one of a kind sports moment
Actually, there are multiple examples of players taking over to clutch wins.
@@biz09ification internet not telling me if you’re joking or not 😂
@estebansamra7255 yes. I am and I am not
Mind games!!
the way KG says yeah in response to Pierce has me dying that is too funny.
“….Yeah..!” 🤣
He almost wanted to say I seen em do it 😭😭
"fuck...yea... technically and literally" 😂😂😂
He gets so much hate. Some of it might be deserved, but no other athlete in history has had so much pressure on him to live up to the hype. ESPN was televising this guy's high school games when he was 16. He didn't just live up to the hype, he exceeded it beyond anyone's expectations. We probably won't see anything like it again in our lifetime.
Ral talk Sere Williams gets that too. And she's always in the GOAT conversation
There's always gonna be another great athlete of the generation. We're just lucky to be apart of lebrons.
Social media plays a role in all this the fact that every thing is reported in a instant I have been watching nba for 45 yrs Lebron is not in my top ten. If I was curry you would have a hard time convincing that LeBron is better than me
What Dwade did when he won his first ring was the closest thing I ever seen to A mj that was amazing
U haven’t heard about Messi buddy World Cup 2022
This was insanely well edited.... thanks... Signed proud Miami Heat fan
9:55 Just real and authentic. Finally giving this man his flowers. They always thought this, but now they have finally said it to the world.
That was almost 12 years ago guys, and he’s still balling at almost 39. This is insane.
Greatness we witness
This is Unreal ✌️
Fact and he was 27-28 at the time 😅😅
Watching this game in real time gave me a feeling that has never been replicated by a sports althete since then i felt like i was watching the greatest of all time leading up to this game the hate lebron got was out of this world so to see him go and do this all with a lifeless stare just showed how much of a true cold blooded killer he can be when you pushed him to that place this was one of the few games ive ever seen lebron go 100%
Great video. Great content 🔥🔥
Whenever I’m having a discussion on LBJs greatness, this series is literally one of the moments I point out every single time.
if lebron played like this every game he would have more championships
@@fadercreek man's 38 now brother might as well get him to construction
@@paige4886 i'm talking about earlier in his career
@G Money ur delusional asf lebron just destroyed this team
@G Money Bro stop Reaching 😂 Michael Jordan beat an aging Larry Bird and aging Magic Johnson and aging Isiah Thomas to. In the NBA that’s how It goes players get older and the talent gets younger.
The look in his eyes.... This man played OUT OF HIS MIND!
This was 2012 & he’s still going strong in 2023.. he’s the goat
Bill russell is the goat
@Michael Fariello Jordan was a money maker like no other...but nite nite out b4 PHILL & PIP he never made it to any finals w/o PIP & PHILL. Mike was the most hyped player in history..why? Whites & blacks paid 200-300 dollars for tennis shoes! Pumping abt 2billion yearly into the economy..& 80% of highlights were Jordan..make no mistake only player I've seen to match MJ was DR J..in the aw factor & MJ/Nike used the doctors blueprint & the rest is history in the apparell world of sports..Note:: Doc was so must see... he forced a declining NBA to merge with the ABA 4 best teams to make the NBA the global sport it is today..NBA dunk contest never existed until DJ dunked from the free throw!. He set the foundation of entertainment in basketball & marketing black athletes. Class over.😉😉
@michaelfariello2144 This is the narrative that we have to stop, the narrative that since LeBron is great, Jordan isn't great and vice versa. They're both great and they're both in any life or death starting 5 you make. They are 2 of the 4 spots on basketball Mt. Rushmore. Let's appreciate them both without having to tear either one down. Yes, they each have their warts, neither is perfect. Just appreciate that we're gifted to enjoy they both.

Never a Bron fan but You could just tell by his demeanor he was ultra determined and locked in. No outside noise, no thinking
