LeBron James Game 5 Show Against The Pistons

[AriesNY12]

This is one of the reasons why LeBron has been compared to Jordan

[420chuck1]

yup remembered this game im not a big fan of james but when i was watching this game i saw jordan in james for one night only hehe... i was like o_o when he was hitting those jumpers

[rrougely09]

If only he played like this last year in the playoffs! Where was his passion last year?

[DarkMage573]

@rrougely09 He did have that passion. Unfortunately, it stopped after the Bulls series.

[bballboy247]

@DarkMage573 ya but this year he beat the bulls!!!!

[danorfie310]

wish he was still in cleveland.. WTF lol.. still love him though.. gave us something to watch for awhile ha

[addison2110]

If lebron scored 48 against that great pistons defense imagine playing against the knicks lol, at least 80 pts

[goheels2550]

I actually liked this Lebron.

[Alandalus105]

@goheels2550 what do you mean?

[goheels2550]

@Alandalus105 I liked the early days of Lebrons career. Last season or two with the Cavs and after-- not so much.

[Flash3Francisco]

NBA is scripted. LBJ was clearly told to lose or persuaded. He didn't have the same passion.. We're talking about the LBJ who didn't want to shake hands with Orlando, we're talking about the LBJ who stood up for his team(varejao).. Where was this LBJ this year? He had no passion, didn't play the game we all know he can play and such..

[1uff3y]

LeBron...YOU WERE THE CHOSEN ONE. IT WAS SAID YOU'd BEAT'EM NOT JOIN'EM. BRING BALANCE TO THE NBA, NOT LEAVE IT IN DARKNESS

[drovadose]

I love watching Lebron but expected more of this against Dallas, I think it should be Wade's team and Lebron take more of a Scottie Pippen like role

[billionshadows]

@drovadose I couldn't agree with you more. LeBron (like Pippen) is a better all-round player than Wade (in this instance, Jordan), and Wade has the tools to be a franchise player and is the best clutch player on that Heat team. If LeBron picks up a Pippen-like role, maybe even MORE involved than what Pippen did with the Bulls (which LeBron should do), the Heat would be the best team in the comp, hands down. LeBron can change the Heat, it all depends on whether he takes a back seat to Wade.

[Jmoore32x]

@april0293 thats the dumbest thing I have ever heard in my entire life

[LeBronJamesMikeVick]

LeBron is THE BEST PLAYER IN THE NBA TODAY !

[april0293]

honestly... not that impressive they BARELY won and he had 48 points sure....after not one but TWO overtimes, please this guy is overrated like a motherfucker, they could make anyone look good by riding their dick and showing all their good shots lame

[LZ08]

@april0293 How can you say that's not impressive? He scored 29 of the Cavs last 30 points and single-handedly beat the Pistons. Did you see that final stat line?

[ridore9]

@LZ08 As impressive as it was...i think it just showed how bad of a team the cavs where.....and another thing is if kobe had done this everyone would be like well he doesnt trust his teammates and he's a ballhog...but lebron does it and its all gravy

[FeintBlade]

@april0293 wowwwwwwww you are soooooooooo retarded LMFAO

[FanKB24]

l'm a die-hard Kobe fan and would make the argument he is arguably the greatest ever; but if LeBron played like this all the time, there is not an argument that could be made that he isn't the best player ever...ridiculous game. Too bad he doesn't practice or play like Kobe

[DTOWNRW16]

@FanKB24 ur a fucking idiot u cannot compare jordan to kobe or even say kobe is better than Lebron.

[ljflight23]

READ THIS:

Since '03, shots in the final 24 secs that would result in a lead change INCLUDING PLAYOFFS:

Lebron James 17-50, which is 34 percent, he also had 6 assists, to kobes 1

Kobe Bryant 14-56, which is just 24 percent

Since Lebron Entered the league he has hit 4 game winners in the playoffs, 2 against the Wizards, 1 against the Pistons, 1 against the Magic. Kobe has hit only 1 against the Suns.

PLEASE don't say lebron isnt as clutch as other players, it just simply isnt true.

[Betty3Jean]

i will def say thank you to LeBron for 7 great years! we couldn't get our ring but we definitely created lots of memories. RESPECT! !!

[TheServer33]

Im not a lebron or kobe fan but I think what people miss is that the Lakers are a franchise full of championship history not the to mention they have one of the best coaches ever... So....

[sportygu123]

if only he was this determined against Boston.. particularly game 5

[rishi1020]

KOBE AND MICHAEL NEVER did it though so stop saying what if. thats what makes lebron special, hes been able to be the team 29 out of 30. thats called carrying them on your shoulder.

[sera7ares]

@rishi1020 never did what? have you seen michael play?

[hitman9t92]

WADE BOSH LEBRON!!! 6 in a row!

[adi1096]

This is the game I switched from being a Kobe fan to seeing how amazing Lebron is. Im a Pistons fan since 03 and I've seen around 70 Reg season games and Every single playoff game the Pistons have played since then and Lebron is a beast!

[ThePS3RULES360]

25 straight points period.

[powerhouse581]

This is one of my all time favorite games.. i forgot how skinny Prince is

[martiallink]

lmao...surishashank is eating his words right now...so badly

[moose423]

it must suck to be cleveland right now. maybe the cavs really will win a ring before lebron........... maybe jon koncak will come out of retirement and average 30 a game while leading the clippers to their first ever title..... i'd say there's a -10% chance either of those things will ever happen

[TheLebronbron]

This was the game when I realized this guy is made for greatness.

[superbijo1]

one of the great show ever he is crazy

[ferrarimike23]

Lebrons made many clutch shots dumbass

Amy time there's less then a minute or two and he makes a shot it's a clutch shot

So go suck kobes dick somemore

[OverlordQuasar]

This game made me respect Lebron James, given the fact that I didn't even like Lebron at that time. In this game, he looks like a man possessed, even the Pistons are speechless at that time.

[MMAboss123]

Put LeBron on the Lakers and Kobe on the Cavs and I guarantee you LeBron and the Lakers would win a championship...Bottom line is the Lakers have better players..thats why Kobe wins championships..LeBron doesnt have anyone like Pau or Odom or Bynum..Jamison is okay and Shaq is washed up and mo williams is overrated..not to mention Phil Jackson is possibly the best NBA coach ever..LeBron will get his rings eventually but the Cavs need to get some talent to surround him

[posc323]

this is when LeBron was growing more into a non human basketball player its like hes going super saiyan lol

[YoNevNo]

@bto4 True. lebron hasn't got a ring while kobe has 4. True King present so far.

[Laura37Rocks]

kobe what???? whoever wants to get on this video and tell me kobe is better can suck on lebrons dick

[bto4]

im a lebron fan but think of this:

"Real Kings Wear Rings"

[Mr1nevitable]

@bto4 actually kings wear crowns

[kevinseveneleven]

@Mr1nevitable rings are for women. But these Laker fans got it twisted. These are the type of dudes to daydream about a woman (with Kobe-ish features) getting down on bended knee and putting the ring on THEIR finger!

[jbsprinter1]

i love the hd on this video

[srvaughan121]

@jbsprinter1 it's like watching Atari HD. the pixels are amazing.

[humza101]

@jbsprinter1 yup horrible definition

[gearsfilms]

I remember watching this game. He was LITERALLY unstoppable. The piston players were all like WTF is going on?

[steelersman42]

this highlight doesn't do LeBron justice. nice highlight, but it doesn't do him justice.

[TrueTalkTV]

It showed a lot, though. You have to remember, (even though the title may suggest OTHERWISE, lol) It wasn't the Lebron James show. They were recapping the entire game. And, you've got 9 other players on the floor to talk about. James clearly got his share of highlights in this package, though.

[sicstyl]

The most amazing atheltic performance I have ever seen in sports. James played possessed- he was the only guy on his team trying to win. I watched as it happened with a couple of friends- I couldn't believe it.

[recko511]

cavs now...detroit now. I smell a championship for cleveland

[pacers51]

people say the kobe can step up in crusial times and lebron

well all kobe fans, look at this video, kobe shouldnt of got mvp last season he only got it cos his teams was playing good...lebron scores more points, more reoudns, more assists and has way better defense then kobe

[ChainGangSoulja266]

LeBron=MVP, MVP, MVP, MVP

[sorenlars]

LeBron + Kobe > everyone else in the NBA... they are easily the 2 best players... Garnett is old and useless next best is Wade and even Iverson still at times... little dominator

[hancan88]

naw, Garnett still got game. and iverson is done. Wade has been outstanding, though

[newyorkyanks22]

bottom line:Magic name Florida coach Billy Donovan head coach.....

hmmmmmmmmmmm,hows that situation goin????

str8 up,Lebron james has done nothing that puts him in the hall of fame besides this game...he dominated in the ;ast quarter of this game but he didnt do shit in the finals and he rly hasnt done to much else.....but when he comes to the knicks in '10 it will be all good

[Xzei]

This is perhaps the single most retarded comment ever. Only 1 player has ever averaged the points, steals, rebounds, and assists that lebron has over his career. Oscar R. Quickest to 10,000, and has led my cavs to the best record in the NBA this season while playing LESS MINUTES. He averages better stats than Michael, Magic, Larry, Wilk..anyone. Only oscar had the boards and assists and steals, and less than lebron. And now that he is motivated on Defense?? You are an idiot.

[rc72015]

wow

[TLASHEY]

fuck all of u hating idiots

dis game is rank da 3 greatest eva in nba history an da greatest i eva seen in my lifetime

[Soriku09]

Lebron would enter a dunk contest but his contract does not allow it genius...

[bwally]

bitch kobes dunk wasn't even original in the contest ur a lame every since vince they aint worth watchin no more

[bddrumline]

does anyone have the sportscenter top 10 2007 games clip of this game?

[iiaea]

This guy is a beast. Haha. You know, even though Kobe and Lebron are both good, Lebron has a more 4th quarter leader killer win mode than kobe. Kobe's more like a skill player (can do everything, shoot, dunk,etc). But lebron was sort of destined for these types of performances. Kobe had some, yes, but it seems more natural for Lebron. Everytime I watch kobe, he's very inconsistent in answering for his team at the right moment. Something Jordan would always do. But that's another story...

[coyakb24]

i sit here and read this and all i could do is laugh. kobe is way more clutch then lebron. i really admire this performance because all it simply does is remind me of what kobe does every five games. i was gonna leave a comment but you caught my eye with your wack comparison.

[iiaea]

Kobe makes a lot of clutch performances but when it came time in the finals last championship he bonked how many times.Don't even make an argument about triple teams, because he wasn't always doubled or even tripled. I'm talking about jumpers just clanking off the rim against the celtics when lakers needed buckets bad.The kobe/Lebron talk never ends but I know for sure Lebron is born a better leader than kobe.Kobe only started trying while Lebron always did it even in the olympics.bronneedshelp

[asainboy23]

i was at the game and i'm from ohio and i sit floor site cause i'm rich

[iversonfan75]

Big deal. Iverson was scoring 50 every other game when he single handedly took Deke and 10 bums to the Finals. Heck, the Sixers even stole one from the unbeatable 3-peat Lakers that year. How'd Bron-Bron do in the Finals? Oh right, Spurs in 4.

[noname6317]

Iverson did it against a weak Eastern confrence while the Lebron did it against the most dominant Eastern Confrence Team of this decade.

[hvaughan5]

Iverson's sixers were better than Bron's cavs. No doubt about it. Not saying Iverson didn't do the same amazing things. Besides the east had NO teams that were comparable defensively to the pistons.

[diplo33]

let's not forget this niggaz 22years old OMG kobe did nothing this good at 22! lebron all day best in the league

[pacmanlegend]

man stfu that nicca 6'8 and big az hell. He cant shoot the ball for shit. Nicca took it to the hole on a bunch of tired ass pistons

[VirginiaTagz]

He was shootin from outside sumthin crazy. stop hatin.

[dude50413323]

no, kobe was 2 busy WINNING CHAMPIONSHIPS u dumbass, and winning a slam dunk contest that lebron's 2 afraid to particapate in.

[iiaea]

You got me on the slam dunk thing. Haha. He does realize he doesn't have the finesse like Jordan, Vince, Jason Richardson, or whoever else. He's all power beast monster dunk! Haha. Hopefully he tries to work on some moves; I'd want to see him compete for it.

[diplo33]

lebron MVP kobe=Fag cavs all day sick of that gay ass purple and gold, ket's see some manly colors please people,and oh yeah, lakers can't even fuck wit boston! hahaha

[diplo33]

lebron MVP kobe=Fag cavs all day sick of that gay ass purple and gold, ket's see some manly colors please people,and oh yeah, lakers can't even fuck wit boston! hahaha

[jeremy23890]

BEASTTTTT

[sja11]

kobe fans are like people who used to think that the world is flat. They don't listen to reason or fact, they go by what people have told them....and because the league has been down since MJ left people have been telling them that Kobe is the best player in the game. Well, he was, until Lebron came around.

[tienyutai]

If Kobe could even do have of this, Lakers would have been in the second round against short-handed Suns in 2006. Kobe choked in that series, and another series against Sun a year later. He never had the leadership that James has. As for Rings, how many Rings did Kobe have after Fisher and Shaq left?

[Kingy12321]

short handed? how the hell do you win over 50 games 3 straight years with a short handed team. dumbass, you know shit, educate yourself before talking shit on here about the greatest ever. and one more thing, how many rings does Kobe have? how many times did he get swept out of the finals? 0 times, 3 rings, it wasn't all shaq, you don't know shit

[tienyutai]

Yep, wasn't all Shaq, Horry hi big shots, Fisher hit big shots, Rick Fox hit big shots. How many rings did Kobe win since those guys left? How many first round exit did KOBE had since Shaq was traded? Like you know shit. Let me restate this: "How many first round exit did Kobe's Lakers had since Shaq was traded? If you don't know, then it's 2... plus one that he didn't even make the playoff.

How many time was he in the finals without Shaq by the way? 0 Times.

[desperate4pussy]

If Kobe would have done this, nobody would have been as impressed. That shows you how dominate he is in this sport. Until Lebron wins championships, kobe will have the edge as a player.

[surishashank]

dude if lebron had shaq(even in his present form....forget how dominant he was when he was wid the lakers)...he wouldve had more than kobe's 3 rings!!!...

[Kingy12321]

haha, yeah right, go suck lebron's dick somewhere else, he couldn't win with shaq, kobe and shaq hated each other and still won 3 rings, imagine how many he would have if they liked each other. Lebron fans are so fuckin stupid

[shutthefuckuploser]

@surishashank basketball is a team sport fuckin retards! shaq didnt hlpe kobe, kobe helped shaq. kobe came to the lakers 1 year after shaq so he helped shaq win 3. its a team sport. and lebron did have shaq this year and jaminson

[chesschampion94]

@surishashank its funny how they got shaq and didnt even make it to the eastern finals

[blackviper1721]

@chesschampion94 yeah, because a 20yr veteran shaq is unstoppable, just like he was with the lakers. right. argue reasonably maybe?

[iwontlose187]

@surishashank I always say the same thing about kobe's other 3 rings. Kobe was to shaq what pippen was to MJ

[Fvlatino987]

@surishashank turns out lebron did get shaq, after all. that, plus a coach of the year (mike brown), three all-stars (shaq, mo williams, and antawn jamison), and two straight 60+ win seasons. woulda coulda shoulda... lebron still has no rings.

[otchere1305]

@Fvlatino987 compare shaq now to back then wit the lakers nd who is better paul gasol or antwain of couese lebron will have no rings

[plbasketball1042]

@Fvlatino987 k come on i hate reading dumb comments. do u guys wanna know why lebron neveer got his ring. his second best player wen he went to the finals was larry fuckin hughes. the lakers sixth man lamar odom was better than lebrons second best player. u cant argue cuz shaq was the best player in the nba for kobes first three rings. for his next two he had pao and bynum who are so underrated. now that pao is sucking these playoffs the lakers are bout to get swept. lebrons the best. amen

[Jagiller000]

@surishashank

lmao he had shaq in his present form and look what happened

[tehstylez]

@surishashank yeah that worked out well lol

[xover76]

@surishashank you got your wish: lebron did get shaq. no rings though.

[ljflight23]

@xover76 ya but shaq was just an old piece of shit that season, and he was a major no-show in the playoffs remember. besides when shaq left the lakers kobe didnt do shit, the lakers were like a 6,7,8 seed every year after that, until they brought in pau gasol, and now its all smiles in laker land. kobe never changed, who he had on his team did

[sera7ares]

@surishashank hahaha well he did...and didn't get past the 2nd round...i wonder what ur thoughts are now...

[iEmGhost]

@desperate4pussy It shows how dominant LeBron is, enough for Kobe fans to come to his youtube vids and make a worthless effort to prove a dumb point.

Talk about LeBron "no clutch" huh Kobe fans ?

[agentnono24]

@iEmGhost sorry but what happened against the celtics? oh yeah he got eliminated.. again.. and yeah he was very clutch especially in game 6 what did he have 9 turnovers damn thats clutch...

[kevinseveneleven]

@agentnono24 Kobe Bryant, the last time he played a game 6 against this Celtics team: 7-22 shooting, 22pts, 3reb, 1ast, 4to... damn that's clutch?

[esenorteno]

@iEmGhost dude this is a one time performance that happened a long time ago, no secret that besides this lbron has no clutch.

[ljflight23]

@esenorteno in his first ever playoff series he hit game winners in game 3 and 5 against the wizards. he averaged 39 a game against the magic and hit a game winner in game 2 2009, they lost the series because no one else showed up on his team. HE AVERAGED 39 a game. say kobe got 45 a game, the cavs still woulda lost that series. point is he is at least the second best player on the planet, you should show some respect. he may not be as clutch as jordan, but he has had many clutch moments.

[kevinseveneleven]

@desperate4pussy if Kobe had done this, none of his faggot fans would have let us forget. They'd have a commemorative sneaker for it, t-shirts and 1000 video tributes in 14 different languages. They'd bring it up whenever possible from October to June, take a two week break and then talk about it some more during the offseason. Then, just to make sure we remember, they'd go around talking about what Kobe did even if the topic would be LeBron/Melo/Durant/CP3/John Wall/Manute Bol.

[JFR916]

@desperate4pussy Kobe has NEVER done something like this in the playoffs.

[Lebronkobe06280]

@desperate4pussy no one will ever do what lebron did on this night, Game 5 ecf on the road, 29 of last 30 points in 4th ot and 2ot, no one will do that again. Against the pistons!

[bball2908]

@desperate4pussy if kobe scored 29 out of the last 30 points to seal a playoff victory ya people wouldve been impressed...even if jordan did it that would be impressive

[TajinderSD]

@desperate4pussy yea kobe doesnt dunk on people and people would have been impressed if he did all that

[diplo33]

Lebron is better than kobe, kobe is a ball hog, look at james assists.

[Kingy12321]

look at their records, Lakers 44-18, 1st in west, best conference in sports, Cavs, 36-27 i think, i don't pay attention to the bad teams, and the cavs are in probably the easiest conference in sports. KOBE= MVP

[Kingy12321]

[ashleynh22]

Lebron is top two in the league behind kobe. Once he developes his jumper he will be untouchable. Sadly he ran into the Spurs.
