It’s ridiculous how people blame Jr for their loss. One man can’t be responsible for a playoff loss. If he is the best then a B player like Jr can’t be the reason they lost.
Idc what anyone says, 1 superstar should not be beating 5 good players, and a great coach in a 7 games series, That’s some unprecedented stuff right there.

I thought i was the only run that ran the play back madd times the mike breen call the silence from the crowd … lebron dragged another 6’7 200 plus pound man on his shoulders than roared at the crowd like a lion you could tell he was not gonna allow this team to lose
Headass. Don’t lie to yo kids like that lmao make it seem like Lebron unbeatable look what happened 2011 Ima tell my kids they built a superteam to beat 1 man dirk & still lost lmao
Morris pulling lebron down while brown comes in trying to block the shot as the ball goes up and in regardless is such a beautiful encapsulation of how unstoppable lebron has been for most of his career.
This will always go down as a historic run and help his goat status. His team had no business being in the finals and if JR or George hill didn’t blow game 1, it would have been a great series
About the 2018 finals, the cavs should've won game 1. Reporters told that LeBron punched a table and broke his hand after game 1 loss. Games 2, 3 and 4 was clear that he wasn't the 2018 playoff LeBron.. If cavs game 1, It could be a hole different story and LeBron could average more than 40 pts in the finals
Let's do some math. 200lbs Jordan couldn't handle the physicality of the Pistons. Jordan works out, comes back 205, 210? Now that's enough weight/size/strength to deal with what the Pistons were doing. Now, look at 6'9" 265lbs Bron scoring an and 1 with a man around the same size literally grabbing his shoulders with all his weight like its nothing. Why do ppl say, "Bron couldn't deal with the physicality of the 80s." Be honest, you think the players in the 80s want an elbow from Bron? If they hit, he can hit back. They'd learn pretty quick that this guy is a bit bigger and stronger than the rest. Jordan at 210 was strong enough, but somehow Karl Malone sized Bron couldn't deal?
@@DMalltheway with all Respect to MJ , that has nothing to do with lebron not being able to handle 80s and 90s ball . If MJ killed the league at his size then I’m pretty sure lebron will kill the league , they are both two way players with a great all around game , pretty close in terms of shooting aswell . If anything it’ll be easier for bron because he will have slower 4s and 3s on him , also teams weren’t getting switches the way lebron does .
James is playing chess while everyone else is playing checkers. That pass he made to George Hill was brilliant. Everyone else in the building figured, with a five point lead, that they would milk the clock. Instead, James, after the defensive rebound by Green, immediately throws a 50 foot assist to ice the game.
1:50 That gutsy pass over 3 people in a tight game that could have resulted in a turnover is a great reminder of how far he's come in developing his game. He's already passed Magic Johnson at that point, would have been interesting to see him get pushed to the limit like this again to see how far he'll go
Playing all 48 minutes the whole post season while Jimmy butler does it for 2 games and everyone goes crazy and forget lebron used to do it all the time

he’s the GOAT, straight up. i’m blessed to have witnessed all that he’s done, and i’m grateful for how inspiring he’s been for me whenever he plays basketball. Thank you LeThanos 🐐
One way or another, the Celtics throughout this decade have always brought the best out in Lebron. From the incredible Game 7 he had in 08 to a winning performance this time som 10 years later, along with every other playoff duel they’ve had the years in-between. I look forward to seeing a documentary about this rivalry some day

I was live watching this game i cant believe what i saw he was just so amazing,even though he lost to the finals , he became the greatest player in my eyes
It's about winning championships not just getting their and don't kid yourself the east was weak as hell this year just like usual that's why his performances although great are overhyped in my opinion he not facing any great teams until he meet the Warriors in the finals and you know how that went
@@semionjohnson1351 dude becoz you hate him, its the hate matters from you all. imagine cavs did not passed the 1st or 2nd round , the critics about him would explode, you all say he needs superstar player to win when he lose that playoff..and now lebron got to finals with trash cavs, you always say east is weak😂😂.. common man its the hate towards him.
@@jcsanchez8140 nah it’s the same he lost it don’t matter if he made the finals losing in the first round or losing in the finals is the same because you lost and didn’t win the championship
I just felt like LeBron deserved to go somewhere his talent wouldn't go to waste. It was heartbreaking watching him carry this team to the playoffs year in year out and only having one championship to show for it. Cleveland front office deserves to have a sucky team.
they will never expierence anything like this again that sorry ass team and its fanbase better be happy that lebron was from cleveland and that he fell right into their hands and im saying that as a cavs fans
@Jon Davis casuals only care about the finals. This postseason was amazing because 1. Houston vs Golden State 2. Lebron's legendary run through the east 3. Celtics vs Cavs Along with many more reasons
Jon Davis 2017 was way worse. Gsw lost 1 game all playoffs. We knew cavs wouldn’t win because they barely did the year before at least rockets had a real chance. Cavs also dominated most matchups that year as well. 2018 was way better.
To this day I still can’t believe lebron was able to even get the shot off let alone not fall to ground at the sequence from 2:15-2:21 Marcus Morris literally tried to tackle him down and he needed up flying into the cameramen and lebron stood his ground all while playing all 48 minutes and last minute of the game unreal ‼️🐐👑🔥💪
@@montillarollan7654 literally any other player completely falls to the ground but the fact Lebron still pulled through it is like herculean type strength and the roar to the crowd gives me goosebumps everytime

@@Stocksinho sadly, they lose to warriors by sweeping them in the series. They should've won game 1 if JR Smith did saw the scoreboard, that'll change everything. That's why LeBron moved to LA Lakers.
man 2018 playoffs bron was my favorite idc that he got swept in the finals the way he got there was just insane especially that toronto series mans just completely destroyed them
I'm a Bucks Fan and I just had to comeback here after today's game to truly appreciate Lebron's Greatness. He made it look easy. That's why he's undisputedly Top 2 All Time.
you smoking dicks LOL he went against the weakest conference in history and he lets a bunch of nobodies and rookies take him to game 7s he's a bum for this. He was well rested for every championship because the road to the Finals was against bums & babies LOL.
@@allahpraystochrist3443 Hater when all the World knows that Michael Jordan is the BEST player ever. There is only 1 Greatest player ever, can't be 2. Lebron was a monster in terms of power but nowhere near what MJ is, probably none ever will, it's that big of a gap. Why call a realist, hater?
Every guy in there has beaten a thousand others in high school and college to get to the NBA, yet there is one person in there who makes all of them look like children. Absolutely unbelievable.
2007 g5 vs Pistons 2012 g6 vs Celtics 2013 g7 vs Spurs 2014 g4 vs Nets 2016 g5, g6, g7 vs Warriors 2018 all series - most notably, game g2 vs Toronto, g1 vs Warriors
You can pick and choose. It's all a matter of preference. For the single 2011 failure, he's had all these games and series to make up for it. If my memory serves me right, nobody in NBA history except him and MJ have multiple signature games in the playoffs when it matters the most.
I went from being the happiest guy to the most depressed guy in just 7 minutes 🙄🤣 How do you go from postering LeBron and taking the lead to giving the ball to Jeff Green and JR Smith? 🤣
I grew up in the 1970s and 80s. I saw all the greats of that era play week after week and none of them were as good as Lebron. His court IQ, his court vision, his size, his skills, his shooting. The best players of that era would have an near impossible time guarding him.
His second leading scorer was Jeff Green. He played 48 minutes. Celtics dried up in fear, even though they were undefeated at home that postseason. Greatness.
he went against bums and babies his whole career in the East, made a Superteam to win in the bubble and now when things are close to normal and players returning from injuries he can't even make the play-in game. He's a fraud!
The crazy thing is that haters use this year to bash his legacy. They say he got swept in the finals, and how Jordan never lost a finals. I dont care what anybody says, MJ aint taking this team to the finals let alone winning against that golden state team. Lebron the GOAT for literally carrying this awful team
this is the best Playoff LeBron I've ever seen, i was a big dubs fan that year and supported basically the whole year but how Bron helped, guided, and carried his team to the biggest stage again is absolutely insane
I never cared for Lebron that much but god damn 2018 was something else. You could feel his back breaking from all the load he had to heave to the finals.
LeBron was unquestionably the most dominant basketball player in the world for ten straight years, so much so that it's hard to even nail down when his peak even was.
I hope clippers team will watch all game 7 that lebron played. I mean not to do what lbj does but how to play with these situations. He was dominant in this situations. Doesnt choke with this. His game 7 average : 34.9 points 8.0 reb 4.5 assist 50% shooting. Goat alert. 🐐
the sequence from 2:15-2:30 straight beast mode played literally all game 7 after already putting up the greatest individual playoff run ever with a supporting cast that should not have been past the 1st round that year va the pacers of not for Lebron Heroics One of a Kind 👑 🏀🔥

2:16 Man, I've rewatched this play an ungodly number of times in the last 5 years and it still gives me chills!🥶
2018 LeBron was a basketball god. Yikes!
Facts I’ve seen that exact play when Marcus morris jumps on his back and tries to stop him at least 10-20 times since May 2018 😂
I thought i was the only run that ran the play back madd times the mike breen call the silence from the crowd … lebron dragged another 6’7 200 plus pound man on his shoulders than roared at the crowd like a lion you could tell he was not gonna allow this team to lose
@@koldmafia9392 2018 playoff LeBron was a spiritual experience.
Can't wait to tell my kids that they've put 5 all-star in a team just to beat a 1 man
LOL. so true
Fax😂
Headass. Don’t lie to yo kids like that lmao make it seem like Lebron unbeatable look what happened 2011 Ima tell my kids they built a superteam to beat 1 man dirk & still lost lmao
lol you aint having kids lil dude that requires gettin wit a female
blood feast island man tf?
That’s Lebron’s most iconic photo. Just epic powerful, all around dope pic
Morris pulling lebron down while brown comes in trying to block the shot as the ball goes up and in regardless is such a beautiful encapsulation of how unstoppable lebron has been for most of his career.
Tatum and brown brick ingredients and choking since 2018
Sadly everyone will remember only the fact LeBron got swept in the finals. (and perhaps the JR mistake)
hshshshshshshs real fans will remember this playoff run and his greatness
This will always go down as a historic run and help his goat status. His team had no business being in the finals and if JR or George hill didn’t blow game 1, it would have been a great series
That dumbass
Truee Aff
About the 2018 finals, the cavs should've won game 1. Reporters told that LeBron punched a table and broke his hand after game 1 loss. Games 2, 3 and 4 was clear that he wasn't the 2018 playoff LeBron.. If cavs game 1, It could be a hole different story and LeBron could average more than 40 pts in the finals
2018 playoff run is what made me FINALLY cast my vote for greatest player of all time.
MJ still wins
@@DMalltheway no he doesnt you oldhead
@@DMalltheway nah he got carried
Let's do some math. 200lbs Jordan couldn't handle the physicality of the Pistons. Jordan works out, comes back 205, 210? Now that's enough weight/size/strength to deal with what the Pistons were doing. Now, look at 6'9" 265lbs Bron scoring an and 1 with a man around the same size literally grabbing his shoulders with all his weight like its nothing. Why do ppl say, "Bron couldn't deal with the physicality of the 80s." Be honest, you think the players in the 80s want an elbow from Bron? If they hit, he can hit back. They'd learn pretty quick that this guy is a bit bigger and stronger than the rest. Jordan at 210 was strong enough, but somehow Karl Malone sized Bron couldn't deal?
@Lucas Walker he was like 6’8” 240 in 03. He was gonna be that size in any era. They probably would’ve turned him into a Karl Malone type post player
@@Dhk4 nah Shawn kemp
@@Dhk4 lebron has that touch around the rim you can’t reach aswell
Jordan swept the Pistons in 91 leading to their 6 chips, you have to go thru the hard road in order to get to the great end.
@@DMalltheway with all
Respect to MJ , that has nothing to do with lebron not being able to handle 80s and 90s ball . If MJ killed the league at his size then I’m pretty sure lebron will kill the league , they are both two way players with a great all around game , pretty close in terms of shooting aswell . If anything it’ll be easier for bron because he will have slower 4s and 3s on him , also teams weren’t getting switches the way lebron does .
James is playing chess while everyone else is playing checkers. That pass he made to George Hill was brilliant. Everyone else in the building figured, with a five point lead, that they would milk the clock. Instead, James, after the defensive rebound by Green, immediately throws a 50 foot assist to ice the game.
Carrying Jeff Green, George Hill, JR Smith, and Tristan Thompson down the stretch to the finals 😂
Nathan Wick can you imagine jr smith in his prime with lebron??
@@hoodfellah still probably wouldn't have known the score 😂
Nathan Wick na but jr was more focus in his prime
All good players.
But finals are tough to get to.
@@jakerojas4942 not that good, look at how they did when LeBron left 😂
1:50 That gutsy pass over 3 people in a tight game that could have resulted in a turnover is a great reminder of how far he's come in developing his game. He's already passed Magic Johnson at that point, would have been interesting to see him get pushed to the limit like this again to see how far he'll go
The fact that lebron carried this team to the finals is ridiculous
Look who he played though. Pacers, raptors and celtics w no Kyrie Hayward I mean Lebron balled out for sure but that East was weak af

One way or another, the Celtics throughout this decade have always brought the best out in Lebron. From the incredible Game 7 he had in 08 to a winning performance this time som 10 years later, along with every other playoff duel they’ve had the years in-between. I look forward to seeing a documentary about this rivalry some day

@Jon Davis casuals only care about the finals. This postseason was amazing because
1. Houston vs Golden State
2. Lebron's legendary run through the east
3. Celtics vs Cavs
Along with many more reasons
Jon Davis 2017 was way worse. Gsw lost 1 game all playoffs. We knew cavs wouldn’t win because they barely did the year before at least rockets had a real chance. Cavs also dominated most matchups that year as well. 2018 was way better.
2:47 look how hard he tries to pull him down. And LeBron still got the shotup
To this day I still can’t believe lebron was able to even get the shot off let alone not fall to ground at the sequence from 2:15-2:21 Marcus Morris literally tried to tackle him down and he needed up flying into the cameramen and lebron stood his ground all while playing all 48 minutes and last minute of the game unreal ‼️🐐👑🔥💪

You can pick and choose. It's all a matter of preference.
For the single 2011 failure, he's had all these games and series to make up for it. If my memory serves me right, nobody in NBA history except him and MJ have multiple signature games in the playoffs when it matters the most.

No truer words have been spoken.
I grew up in the 1970s and 80s. I saw all the greats of that era play week after week and none of them were as good as Lebron. His court IQ, his court vision, his size, his skills, his shooting. The best players of that era would have an near impossible time guarding him.
thats why lebron is the goat.....so many haters dont want him to be that
April 2021 and I’m still getting goosebumps watching Bron carrying the Cavs on his back. Bron is a beast. He is the goat 🐐 no doubt.
