[TheRafaelBond]

SRY guys,i usually dont go that far..but Lebron James is to me already the Greatest of ALL TIME!! his glass is half full,he still can get SO much better!!

[mmadabattula]

dat dunk(s)....

[L3g3ndkill4]

most talented NBA player

[CedAdj]

How the fuck can you hate LeBron after seeing this!?

[colossalko]

he's even more impressive in the next round (vs. the magic)and the cavs still lose. All these so called experts say he doesn't have "it". What they mean is that his teammates suck. They're just too stupid to realize it.

[MrGomanP]

dang ilgauskas cud shoot rlly well...

[lush1993]

1:57 is one of the most powerful dunks ive EVER seen

[stevechen1991]

If lebron hits jumpshots like this and big Z was playing like this in 2011 finals.Heat win 4-0.but lebron fucked up big time with his shot selections and decision making.maybe he wanted dwade to take over...

[ThePS3RULES360]

amazing quality

[klasicktha1]

THE BEST TEAM LEBRON HAD SO FAR. THE CHEMISTRY ON THIS TEAM WAS GREAT AND EVERYONE KNEW THEIR ROLES TOO

[BearCanoe]

lol i saw this game live, it was insane

[2kmasterful]

HE SCORED HALF THE DAMN POINTS.... "my team showed a lot of guts tonight" but now hes hated by Cleveland for 7 years of domination. smfh

[AJVersatility19]

@2kmasterful They're not hating him for the 7 years he gave them. What news have you been watching?

[superZvegetto]

@2kmasterful and probably half of rebounds and assists lol

[austin78993]

@2kmasterful Im a huge Lebron hater but this is a great game from him. Sometimes I feel he does too much and it hurts his team, but his decision making in this game was great. He showed his 3 point touch when left open and drove when they pressed him. Nothing really to hate on here hahah

[Econ1260MetZRoberto]

@2kmasterful I am guilty of the same behavior, my friend! I used to love LeBron but stopped after the decision and forgot just how much he did for his team but now I have glimpses of what he did

[kiddfabul0u5]

@2kmasterful stfu, quit tryna back his weak ass up. sure he was something special, but the things he did were pathetic. im not even from Cleveland and that just childish of him to make a stupid 30 min pre game show. he also promised cleveland and "wouldnt stop till he gets it". Now tell me who the faggot is. Its still LeJoke.

[2kmasterful]

@kiddfabul0u5 FUCK WHAT HE SAID 5,6,7 YEARS AGO!!! maybe he didn't want to waste his career away. Just look at KG and Ray, they made CAREER CHOICES!!! why you watching his "weak ass" anyway... you the faggot

[kiddfabul0u5]

@2kmasterful because when you're considered the best player in the game, you dont run away and quit on your team. this faggot ass nigga was scared of the spotlight, cant handle it. and now that he has Wade and that pansy ass nigga Bosh, he has less to worry about. his rings wont mean shit to anybody if he gets them with miami lmao. anyway....nah, you still the faggot.

[2kmasterful]

@kiddfabul0u5 okay.. cool story, i really dont care that much. and if he do get a ring im 100% positive he wont give a shit what it means to you... lol

[Eisesglut]

THX for uploading .. great vid (even though I'm not that much of a LeBron fan, just respect his game, great baller)

[zakes360]

1:50 commentator...wow....hater lol

[indianslimshady1]

THIS WAS THE PROBLEM WITH THE CLEVELAND CAVALIERS: THE FIRST 3 MINUTES OF THE VIDEO, THEY'RE PLAYING SO DOMINANT, LOOK AT 3:42, THEY'RE UP 17-8. NOW WATCH AT 3:46. THE SCORE IS 19-18. IN ONLY 3 MINUTES OF GAME PLAY TIME, CAVS LET THE HAWKS GO ON A 10-2 RUN...THIS IS WHAT KILLED THEM IN THE PLAYOFFS EVERY YEARS, THE CAVS WOULD HAVE A BIG LEAD, THEN THEY WOULD LET TEAMS LIKE ORLANDO MAKE BIG RUNS, THEN IT WOULD BE A CLOSE GAME, THEN CAVS COULDNT SCORE IN THE FINAL MINUTES, THEN THEY WOULD LOSE...

[colossalko]

@indianslimshady1 this happened to literally every team in nba history. that's why you have 4 quarters and not 5 minutes.

[blove9387]

this was just unbeleivable.when lebron starts winning championships i feel he will the greatest of all time

[falkner23]

This was my fav LeBron game from this 09 playoffs, an awesome performance..looked unstoppable.

[falkner23]

@falkner23 *from the 09 playoffs

[jpowers55]

We dont call it the highlight factory for nothing. Go Hawks.

[mind1303]

I've been looking for the highlights of this game for years, and finally now i get to watch the special performance of one special player. Thanks for uploading!!

[VincentValentine003]

ok first of all the whole cavs team choke in the playoffs, lebron needed people who could perform under pressure, big deal they did well during the regular season but come playoff time lebron was a one man show

[CMcMuffin13]

Lebron James is a phenomenal player. This coming from a complete Kobe fan.

[loveisfree4all]

The comfortability he had with these guys, he doesnt have with the Heat yet, but its getting there! When it happens, he will play like this more consistently. Lately hes been unreal, but I miss the Cleveland days bc he made believers out of so many with the talent or lack thereof in Cleveland! I pray he gets a ring to put that stamp on it!!

[Elmaln]

Its amazing how some people fail to see just how insanely good Lebron is, he may not be the most clutch player there is right now, but he is definitely the best player in the NBA right now. This is coming from someone who never liked the Cavs, and I don't like the Heat either - but give credit where credit is due.

[tdot4life15]

Back when Lebron carried bums deep into the playoffs. His playoff runs should have side notes on them

Cleveland Cavaliars 2008-2009: 66-16 *

Cleveland Cavaliars 2009-2010: 61-21 *

Lebron James back to back MVPS.

* the following records were obtained with bums that are currently 14-45 in the NBA.

Cavs are a joke.

[xXxLasersxXx]

@tdot4life15 When Lebron were with the so called "bums" tell me why in both seasons they have a better record then the heat? If you see all there players they had were good not all stars but players that played their best and did their jobs and knew their role.

[tdot4life15]

@xXxLasersxXx Easy..first off Lebron is THAT good and he played 7 years in Cleveland and built team chemistry. Wade Lebron and Bosh don't have that chemistry right now and when they play for more years, they will by far have the best record in the league. Exactly, they all had their roles and knew their role because they had been playig with LBJ for so long and he was that good. The CAvs have the worst record in the league. And everyone is writing the Heat off. ITs not playoffs yet

[xXxLasersxXx]

@tdot4life15 Jeeze get off lebrons dick, if lebron is so good why is his team on like on a 4 or 5 game losing streak? Lebron OBVIOUSLY has a better team this year but has a worst record when he was with the cavs. answer that. Im not saying the heat are bad they are a threat. But when you have lebron wade bosh and like 5 other players that are good like miller, chalmbers, bibby, and you got some deece big men. They shouldnt be losing 5 in a row.

[tdot4life15]

@xXxLasersxXx so no good/great team has ever lost 5 in a row? Thats what your basically telling me because I never said that Lebron made the Heat the greatest team in NBA history dumbass. There have been teams much better then the Heat that have lost 3-5 games in a row. So now team record matters so much but when Lebron was realing off 60 + wins no one gave him the recognition with the Cavs but now that he has 5 losses in a row its cause hes not good enough

[tdot4life15]

@xXxLasersxXx Its not even playoffs yet the Heat won 18 of 19 at one point. The heat are just get overhyped by everyone because of the stars they have. They can play with them best of them. The Lakers lost 3-4 in a row at one point as well and look at how stacked they are so it doesn't matter. All that matters is how you play in the playoffs and we will see come June

[xXxLasersxXx]

@tdot4life15 first of all your saying is so good that he got the cavs in to the playoffs. IF Lebron is so good they wouldnt lose 5 in row or have a worst record then the cavs im saying.

[Lakers24pwnz]

Back when Lebron cared
