That's crazy :ohhh:

Dope commercial, I don't think I've ever seen it, +repped :wow:

Crazy, Nike get all the Kings and Cavs together for this ad :jbhmm:

Damon Wayans cameo :russ:

LeBron prophetic, laughing off the pressure :mjcry:


I LOVED that commercial. They played it 24/7 leading up to his first game. The hype was CRAZY.

That commercial was like the answer right there that Lebron was just simply going to be great. My dad said that Lebron was probably physically the most ready made prep to pro athlete ever, and even he thought Brob would be a 17-18ppg type player his rookie year while learning the NBA.

Bron just came and SURPASSED the hype. Which is truly incredible

How could you watch this and still wonder if son had next? :noah:

The court vision and passing ability is out of this world he had Villanueva eating, the athletecism and body at his age, crazy how the announcers were unsure if he had room to grow and this dude ended up at like 265 lb. in Miami, dude just makes everthing look easy and smooth when its not. :mjcry:

Questions on feet, baggy jersey era :mjcry:


We may never see a basketball prospect this good again ever..

:wow:


That off the dribble three at 2:35, say what you want about LeBron's J, he's always been a tough shot maker :wow:

Windmill at 3:20 :wow:

That pass at 3:30 :wow:

That crossover at 4:20 :wow:

That post fade at 4:38 might as well yell KOBE :wow:

At 4:48 :damn:, in and out ankle breaker, step back, pump fake, leaner from 18 :wow:

The spin and reverse smooth off the glass at 5:10 :wow:

Getting interviewed by :wow: at 6:18 :russ:

MJ was witness :wow:

High School Bron watching Mike play on the Wizards a week prior to Jordan Brand Classic :wow:

Bron with the navy velour sweatsuit, baby blue Sean John tee, throwback Lakers hat :lolbron:

Leg on the scorers table that brashness, the audacity :picard:, it's like he think he already own the league :wow:

Mike probably looked over like "not this lil nikka again"... :russ:

Always had an issue with this idea.

The Pistons had the second most successful run in franchise history over the next five seasons, and it's easy to say just add Melo and it would've been even better, but nobody really knows that. Not to mention who knows if they ever get Rasheed then, and Larry Brown probably would've been the worst possible option for Melo to grow under.
It's just one of those what ifs to ponder on. I don't know if they get Sheed again but its possible. Detroit lacked a guy who could stretch the floor next to Ben and they needed a post defender to take the pressure off him, he was ideal for what they lacked at the time. That trade was a fleece too, one of the best trades ever.

If you have that and you plug in a phenom scorer like Melo :picard:

You talking about Larry Brown, but Melo played under George Karl. :scust:

Larry didn't last long there he got bought out and went to the Knicks, it would be interesting to see Melo develop there because early on he really had the tools to be a good defensive player.

Hell, I saw Brandon Jennings play in high school and dude looked like a goddamn superhuman. Dude was out here pulling up from 35 feet, leaving dudes in the dust, hitting dance moves, and throwing down windmills.
Nobody could tell me shyt about BJ when he was coming out the draft, I wanted the Knicks to get him so bad. I used to tell people he was the next Iverson.

We'll always have these highlights though :mjcry:

I remember being geeked when the Celtics signed Ricky Davis because as a young kid I just wanted to see him drop some unnecessary highlight dunks :russ: it's not until years later that I could truly appreciate the levels of fukkery that he brought with him like a fine vintage wine :wow:

This is a bunch of bullshyt. Even at 32, much less at 17, Lebron was nothing but a skill-less athletic specimen who cannot shoot or dribble. :troll:

Really, can you tell me ONE way in which Lebron's game differs from Deandre Jordan? :troll:

If Lebron were 5'3", he wouldn't even be on the All-NBA 3rd-team, much less 1st-team. :troll:
