LeBron James Cavaliers Debut | NBA Classic Games

[BrandonWS]

"No one can live up to this kind of hype"

LeBron surpassed it, which shouldn't even be possible.

[jeanday]

Imagine being a die hard Cavs fan, mucking it through the hard times, and then seeing Lebron infused into your breath of fresh

[wpiassa]

Most dudes who pretend not to be impressed with Lebron's game, actually love him a lot. That´s why they are watching a game of his played 20 years ago. Lebron is still the biggest attraction in the NBA. Whether we like it or not.

Watching this @ 12 years old you couldn't tell me NOTHING this was a great era of basketball

[markimhoffii]

Nobody can live up to the hype he says.. couldn’t be more wrong

[MPRJM]

Lebron james is now the all time leading scorer in the history of basketball....I watched this game and I watched the game against okc the other absolute greatness

[Mr.Stimmy]

As a diehard lifelong cavs fan this night will be remembered for as long as I live, changed our entire sports culture, the kid from Akron, the instant he hit the court we knew basketball in Cleveland would never be the same, thank you for making my childhood as a cavs fan unforgettable, no matter where he goes he'll always be the kid from Ohio, the chosen one 💯🔥

21 seasons later. LeBron still has speed, power, and shooting 🔫. what an amazing player!

[paolorossisingson]

Its funny that a lot of people are saying that Victor Wembanyama is the greatest and most hyped prospect. Victor is great but this Lebron hype happened even before the era of social media.

How he didnt lose his mind? The amount of expectations and all.. didnt cheat.. he didn’t didnt get corrupted.. for 20 years…just GOAT

[michaelmcnerny]

This Kings offense was at least 10 years ahead of the rest of the NBA

[StopIEatGlass]

4:49 first rebound and beautiful lob pass
6:29 Bruh is 6’8 with mike bibby on him and his first 2 shots are jumpers, start of something different…

[KY-YE]

This 18year old kid literally had the pressure of the world on his shoulders this day…
Even when he was standing around waiting for the game to start… in that moment by himself pacing around..
looking around, every person in the crowd he happen to look at had their eyes beaming right at him, staring, that should’ve been the moment where he could’ve got very nervous & filled with butterflies & fear… but he smiled, chewed his gum… had a calm peacefulness to him, it possibly could’ve just been supreme confidence…. either way… Idk if even Jordan could’ve performed WITH THAT MUCH HYPE, EXPECTATIONS, PRESSURE…. THIS MANY CAMERAS…
From the age of 16!!!
THAT IS ONE OF THE REASONS LBJ IS MY GOAT

[Pnasty]

I’m just here because he dropped 47 on his 38th birthday at yr 20! #🐐👑James is DIFFERENT

[kreizeeboi]

from 360p to 4k HD that's how long lebron has been in the league.

[anthonyhumphrey]

Crazy that when he started in the game, it looked so different. Setting picks, big men down in the post. The game has really developed in his 20+ year career.

[cardicon]

I wish we can watch it in 60FPS as if we’re watching it live!

[johnnyyonnas]

The debut of the chosen one Legoat James no matter what happens we will miss him when he’s gone
