LeBron James’ greatest moments with the Cavaliers | SportsCenter
LeBron and I both played high school basketball in Ohio. Really? Yeah. Me and Stubenville. Uh LeBron an hour 45 Northwest in Akran. Very similar careers too. St. Vincent St. Mary’s. And then of course he would get drafted with the first pick in the 2003 NBA draft. The Cleveland Cavaliers select LeBron James. I was not drafted. Yeah. Okay. On draft night. All right. I mean, that was that was a mistake. Free agent still. I’m available. Okay. All right. They might call you. LeBron’s always said he crafted his game after yours. He didn’t. Yeah. Okay. Here’s one of your first Finals appearance. Cavs, Pistons, Eastern Conference Finals. Series all tied up at two. And LeBron went off 25 straight points against the Pistons on the road in fourth quarter and overtime. They went on to win the series and advance to their first NBA final. First MVP 2009 with mom Gloria by his side. From the bottom. From the bottom. Good stuff. And then remember this Magic Cavs. 1 second left. Boom. At the buzzer. LeBron ties the series at one. The great call as well as LeBron gets the winner. Lewis gets it to LeBron for three for the win. Yes. LeBron James and the buzzer as the Cavaliers have pulled it out to tie the series at what a miraculous shot by James. Great. Marv Albert with the call. Yes. 2016 finals game seven Cavs Warriors. Remember when LeBron made this a thing? Chase down block. Check out how it sounded on the broadcast. Iodala to Curry. Back to Igodalo up for the layup. Oh, blocked by James. LeBron James with the rejection. Cleveland, this is for you. Oh yeah. Delivered Cleveland’s first and only championship.

"Block by James!" Of course! Iconic moment in NBA history.
Ohio stand up
Yo imagine if iguodala dunked it and got fouled by LeBron tho that would have been sick
LEBUM LEBUM LEBUM LEBUM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Why is ESPN posting this? Did he get traded back to CLE?!
why upload this now?
Greatest of All Time and this was just his first prime.
Wish he would have stayed there the whole time. History would have been kind to that decision.
Maybe this video is a sign that it’s his last season.🫡
THE DECISION!!
Don't stop talking about Epstein
Is he retired now ?😂
ESPN going broke doing layoffs milking off LeDiddy once again
Lebron greatest moment of all time with the Cavs is when he backstabbed them in 2010 to go join a superteam with the Heat and ran away like a little itch cause he can't win alone true story.
his greatest moments with the Cavs?
Probably the back to back 60 win seasons
………….and got bounced out of the playoffs, then got his coach fired.
lbj, play him off the bench 2025 2026 season if he is still on the lakers.
I don't know why there's a lot of LeBron vids around yt today but maybe it's a hint that he will come back to Cleveland or this is a retirement…. Kinda odd.
Wow 🤯 Im shocked ESPN post this video instead of MJ. Definitely try to bring viewers back with all of those current lays off 😂
