That's a genuine smile and happiness. Shoutout to the reporter for giving LeBron the credit he deserves!

@ShawnofFE Bro bron better than Kobe hahahaha tf do u watch basketball?? And have u ever heard something from stats ?? 😂😂😂

@TruexFamily He’s not goat , just a crybaby

@ShawnofFE wym kobe/jordan its jordan/wilt

@stuckin 2014 ??

@Random Clips Military and? maybe don't spend trillions on end-of-the-worlders, then you can complain

lebron deals with a lot of undeserved hate, must feel good when someone actually appreciates you

@Apply Pressure he called for violence when all the officer did was justifiably shoot someone for attempting to stab someone

@justsaying32 he called for violence or he defended his people for the injustice we have in the system you sound like one of those trump supporters lol

@justsaying32 like what??? Outside of basketball he is a good husband father and gives back explain it me why he deserves anything??

@Underlock Andski Well that’s what I’m basically saying, we (LeBron included) have nothing to do with who made the decisions about Hong Kong. The NBA commissioner caught absolutely no heat at all. LeBron became a target for racists over five years ago. When his house was spray painted with a racial slur. It had to do with him speaking out against social injustices taking place on the daily in this country. He has no say on business deals that took place between the NBA and the CBA. The NBA wanted nothing to do with the politics in Hong Kong, seeing that they were trying to make a deal with the CBA. Which is why they wanted everyone to keep quiet about what’s taking place over there. If he continued to talk, he would have most likely been black balled, exactly like Kaepernick was. Which would have screwed up his legacy and livelihood. Doctrine?! What doctrine exactly?!

This man has put his body thru +15 years of pain and stress to be the great player he is. Gotta respect the mans work ethic.

Faxx people can hate all they want but this man's been dominanting the league since some of us were youngns 💯

LeBron is actually one of the most clutch players off all-time, respect to that reporter.

@TechnoSpear it’s literally a fucking 30 min compilation video of his clutch shots . The grossest and most false narrative ever forced upon sports fans that lebron is not clutch

@Marcus Jackson literally has more playoff game winners than anyone, go look up lebron clutch plays because there’s so many examples

@Marcus Jackson check the stats dummy, more clutch than MJ

No he's not This why he has others ( Wade,Kyrie) to be clutch cause he's not

He’s got the most game winners/ buzzer beaters

I don’t care who you are, feeling appreciated is such a good feeling. Everybody deserves to feel appreciated… in some way or another.

"Everybody deserves to feel appreciated... in some way or another " Yeah I think we all know the "other" way😩😩💦

Well said 🤜🤛 we are our on worst enemies, we need others to believe in us.

J

the guy has been treated as this princely figure his entire adult life. don’t you worry that he’s underappreciated.

@Jason Akie wdym? How am I making people unhappy? What have I said that's so negative? Is it because It's the truth? Is it because my opinion is different and that I have a different outlook on things? Idk man you tell me what's negative.

Im proud to have grown up watching a guy like LeBron. He’s undeniably talented but it’s his humility that gets me. Dude married his high school sweetheart, never hear his name in cheating scandals, drugs, mistresses, none of it. Just a stand up guy, an idol who actually deserves to be idolized

Appreciate him while he's here. There'll never be another like him.

@Kel bro he’s 14. He gets no playing time cause there’s 12th graders who are also on his JV team. He’s nice asf.

@Jay Bryce average 6 points wym by “So good”

@Kel nah Bryce definitely gonnna make it he’s sooo good. But bronny nahh

Once in a generation reporter. Keep grinding and ask those hard hitting questions

@Angel Quijada They whole playstyle is different, they not even make the NBA.. So once again there would never be another player like him

The feeling of getting appreciated for your efforts is the best. Everyone deserves that but few actually get it and that's what breaks you in the first place

Paulo Antunes, the GOAT of NFL broadcast here in Brazil ♥️. The guy who made all brazilians have affect for Dolphins. Respect.

Bron’ seems shocked someone wasn’t downplaying his greatness.

@IcedOutRaccoon and you're jealous

@Kevin Kohoutek you know LeBron has the most game winners of all time

@IcedOutRaccoon highly doubt that..

@Eric Coffer Jr unfortunately yes it’s true 😢

LeBron is actually one of the most clutch players off all-time, respect to that reporter.

he’s like got everything in basketball wanted from post , midrange to threes he’s not the best at thoughs things but he is 95 overall in every category even in defence. I’m a GSW fan but it’s a honour to watch this man play the way he does on a consistent basis

So humble, both of them. Seems they could be genuine friends ❤

That's the first time I've seen him genuinely smile. This was a wholesome moment in an otherwise plastic situation.

That precious smile from lebron made my day. Well done mr. Reporter.❤️

LeBron has been sooooo under appreciated his entire career, that to see his humility by being acknowledged for what he has done, is amazing. I appreciate you Bron! Everyone should, cause when he's gone, there won't be another him for a very long time...if ever! Long live the King!!!

There needs to be more interviewers like him

Legendary player and he can still feel that happy when he gets a compliment. So nice to see!

You can tell this made lebron's James heart melt.. !!! Especially when you know "Hard Work" is something James takes seriously on and 📴 the court.... Felt happy for him

CGC

All I see is Ice.. lebrons chains kickboxing!!!

When you work your @$$ off and you're appreciated for it, my God it's one of the best feelings! Especially when it's something where not many people see the work you put in behind closed doors where it's only you working on yourself with no one else around you

Don't have to like the dude, but at least give him the respect he deserves. props to the guy who asked the question too.

You could see, even feel the sincerity in Lebron reaction. Real Heart=Real One

I think it’s the other way around! What a beautiful thing to say to a player!! Man you could tell LeBron genuinely appreciated those words

You can tell Lebron puts in a lot of work and finally appreciates people who actually care

When he first started talking he looked like he didn’t want to be there but after he was done it was all smiles and joy

That response was so genuine and full of love. Really beautiful.

I’m a Suns fan, but I will definitely appreciate watching LeBron. What an amazing baller.

The fact that there are people who say this man is not clutch is mind blowing Edit: OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE LIKES

I watched most of his games and all the playoff games as well as more lebron that MJ. I think you’re the one that’s watching highlights if you think MJ ever choked in a playoff game or finals game. He’s definitely better than lebron by a landslide but lebron is probably number 2 or 3 all time. MJ was just that great

@Eze Downes he did. He missed 3 game winners in the finals in the year 91,92 and 97 all game winners btw. He has a quote where he talks about all his chokes he lost 23 games missed 9000 shots and he said something else I forgot.

@Joel Mitchell bro mj definitely choked a few moments away, cant go by only highlights

@The713Sonic his finals record is bad because hes played against a bunch of overpowered teams that mj wouldve lost to as well

I knew Lebron felt that one deep down though 💯 we’ll always remember that young kid from Akron Ohio to now a well deserved first ballot hall of famer 🐐

Bron appreciated the reporter’s question and it seems like the reporter genuinely appreciates Lebron’s greatness.

Its hard been talked about everyday 😪 when you just doing what you love especially from people that have never played the game

The difference in his demeanour from when the question starts to the end of the question speaks to how much he values peoples opinions. If the good stuff makes you smile then the bad stuff is getting you down. Be better, people.

He looked really stressed and over it before that question. Most definitely made that interview and his day way better!

No matter who you are gettin appreciated for what you do feels great even someone legendary like bron.

That came straight from the heart ❤️

Thats how i feel about Lebron James every game he plays he always hitting 🔥🔥 i can't tell how but man 😭 i love this man 🙏👍

I don't like Bron, but I cannot dispute his talent and hard work on the court. One of the greatest to play the game. Everyone should share their appreciation with others like this. That small gesture softened a strong person the correct way. May God grace us all with love like this for one another.

Why don’t u like him bruh

How do you not like lebron when you’ve never meet him?😐

How do you NOT like Lebron? If you are a fan of basketball, you must like this man.

@guap k Not liking someone (for actual reasons) and "hating" on them is two totally different things. Man we gotta stop this nonsense of throwing the race card or the "oh you just a hater" card at everyone who doesn't think that a successful black man is the greatest thing since sliced bread. LeBron has put his foot in his mouth both verbally, and on social media not just a couple of times, but countless times. It gets to the point where if you keep saying things that are either ignorant, unfair, or simply untrue, people are gonna call you out on your BS. After someone vandalized the garage door of his mansion, this man basically said "oh, this reminds me of what happened to Emmett Till." Like, man if you don't get outta here with that. This is the same man who still supported China, knowing full well that their Communist government is one of the worst human rights violators on the planet. And he blasted the Rockets GM at the time because he knew that what he said in defense of Taiwan (or Tibet) could potentially mess up his money. And then there was his mocking of a young man on trial for defending himself. So while yes, LeBron does have ridiculous haters, there are people who actually have had reasons to be critical of him or lose respect for him off the court. So look at this in 3D and not just in terms of skin color or financial status.

@DATTZ 1SHXURR exactly I was jus bout to say that😂💀

That's absolutely trueeee much love and respect to the reporter....

"There's not many like you, I tell you." He's got a point.

Shoutout to Lebron thanks for all the years of elite, high level, professional basketball. Not many like u Lebron James

He deserves the best players of all time award he is the greatest basketball player ever to hit hoops and has big heart to helps kids and his community nothing but love for him. He came from nothing build his own career made it out of hoods of Akron and wasn't born into a silver spoon life like most players so hat off bud.

I'm no LeBron fanatic, but you gotta respect this man's talent and will. He wants to win and has a good idea how to... Just wish he didn't block my boy Iggi's lay in 2016. 😭

@LoKi Cuzz totally agree. Bron's skills are better but Kobe's huger attracts the audience. Plus, Bron flopped a lot so 😂

@Elfatbastard 209 Kobe is not better statistically or eye test just better footeorker and scorer and rings don’t matter btw Kobe wasn’t even the best player of a majority of his championships Shaq has 3 fmvps to prove it he only has 2 fmvp of his 5 same with magic and bird lebron has 4fmvp to all his rings

@Elfatbastard 209 kobe has more rings. But he's also a player with most missed shots in nba history. Rings isn't completely valid for judging how great he is cause a good player could faced a super team his whole career and won't win any chips while being the greatest. It's a matter of their opponents. But greatness is shown on their stats.

@PRANJAL BHOI facts

@Elfatbastard 209 yeah Shaq won him 3 chips and Kobe has 2 fmvp Lebron has 4 doesn’t matter if he’s loyal or not

Appreciate this man before he hangs up his jersey. He has been hated by so many yet he is just out there trying to prove haters wrong

We are all together on this rock for as long as we/it lasts. It’s not a weakness to acknowledge others achievements and/or bring a feel good moment to them especially in this mess of a world we are in today.

Damn. The GOAT, very humble and appreciative. Very unbiased assessment Mr. Reporter. Best clip I've seen in a while.

I swear Lebron was gonna shed a tear if that man said anymore.

so wholesome. this puts a smile on everyones face

@Kai Max u right he can have his own I just wonder what pushes that for him to hate another man

@DMP that pretty much somes up society because everyone is entitled to they own opinion

@Paul Lack why don’t you like him what made u dislike someone you never met 😂

Fax, i dont like lbj but i smiled

Not the haters

He's had a few moments when he choked but for the most part he's been clutch I mean he has more game winners then jordan and shoots them at a better percentage

That clutch shot he made on Curry to kick them out the playoffs was extremely clutch for LeBron. Currys face was shocked he wasn't expecting that and it felt wrong. Lebron definitely has become more clutch towards career end.

It’s crazy how happy you can make men just by showing some appreciation. Lebron did not know him but that made him feel good & you can see it

Lebron genuinely felt that recognition. You can just tell. This was nice

lol I like this interviewer and I love how lebron replied to what he was saying

With his smile “It’s not many like you I tell you” this come from deep his heart ❤️

That was a great smile love to see it everyone needs a bit of brightness 🌞 in their daily lives

This reporter speaking facts 💯

Been awhile since I’ve seen a genuine smile looks so good on him

Out of 94 shots LeBron had taken with 5 seconds remaining to tie or win, he's hit a whooping 14. That's 20% in clutch (my definition of clutch) Now I'm glad that clutch doesn't have to be just the shooting for me 😂😂

Brazil being well represented. Well done, Paulo Antunes!

Look at his eyes man🥺❤️‍🔥Thats passion and gratitude folks

Hahaha he’s genuinely happy that’s pretty funny. He is clutch though he doesn’t get enough credit for it he’s hit some huge shots in his career especially in the playoffs

Damn LeBron...Great moment I appreciate his graciousness

You can't diss a man who's in the conversation of GOAT, even in a convo betweens top GOATs themselves.

He’s LITERALLY the most clutch player of all time, this is a fact

There's a difference between being clutch and being AS CLUTCH as someone else. LeBron has always been clutch, people just take away from them because there's certain people who are more so

I know Lebron gets a lot of stick in terms of being clutch, but he’s honestly one of the clutches players I’ve seen in my lifetime. Not just offensively but defensively too. One of the goats for sure 🐐. - Warriors fan

He has been.. although he's folded in some situations.. but 29 points in the 4th quarter and ot happened at the age of 22.. people forget

Not a LeBron fan but yeah, he's one of the greatest players in NBA

His mood completely changes and you can almost see a tear

The way he said I tell yuh. What a dad 😂💯❤

its facts! ive never been on the lebron train but u gotta give credit where its due. the man is great in every aspect

These shorts never fail to entertain me 😊 👍

He’s so used to reporters asking him daft questions, he’s blown away😅👌🏽

Crazy how much love this man gets even crazier how much hate he gets too…

He probably thinking like no one ever see the true hard work and performance I’ve done lately but when finally brought something up like that it makes his hard earn work worth it. I know he already know himself it’s worth it but to hear it genuinely from someone made his day.

Wow that's a one in a million reporter who choose to appreciate a great athlete over nasty question or grilled him.

Lebron genuinely appreciated him giving him his flowers , he was probably in the inside saying finally someone that is keepin it real and

@John John watch some basketball

@FBI OPEN UP lebron has the most GAME winners ever

@FBI OPEN UP that’s exclusively butter beaters. If you change to game winners with 4 or less seconds in the clock lebron actually has the most ever

@John John has most game winners in nba history but keep hating blindly

@John John mj holds the record for most "game winning buzzer beaters" in the NBA LBJ is behind him with 7 you can't tell me he ain't clutch

This is actually true bro "when the going gets tough you always hittin" aye you can tell that hit bron😂💯but fax tho

I remember watching him pull out due to a "shoulder injury" which was apparently caused by a "hot stadium" So clutch

That was a humble moment for lebron

Man that's crazy he lit up almost teared up probably, because he's getting appreciated by media man look how y'all got the best player ever feeling not used to open praise except teammates and his diehards so he's completely taken aback. Y'all hate this man so much he's not used to compliments anymore crazy again he's the best one of whatever you wanna agree on basketball players dude needs more moments like that

Lebron one of the greats flat out I love to see the king wining and smiling much love bron

Now that's more of a basket fan than a reporter. Dude know the good stuff

Bro he looked depressed as hell, and then that compliment just brighten his whole day

At the beginning, Bron is like: oh, another one of those huh. Then when he heard what the interviewer said, he can't help but be genuinely happy.

He took that really well. He definitely earned that level of appreciation* and he recognized that.

That is all it takes to make someone's day!

Even Lebron knew it wasn’t true 😂😂😂

Lebron seems like doesn't get praised enough, that's something we all have to think about, how such a amazing athlete is not acknowledge enough? Take a bow Lebron, you're surely inspirational.

8/10 times he's been clutch in his career But sometimes it's just not his day Or the teams time😞

Sometimes even the greatest at what they do just want a simple pat on the back and to hear good job ! It doesn’t happen enough in my opinion it’s all about dwelling on the bad and not the good these past few years! Stay strong people and keep your head up, Achieve your goals and be amazing ! Peace ✌🏼

I mean it’s literally just the haters tho , cause who hates Steph really ?? Everyone shows love to him for changing the game and being the best shooter but Lebron is still passing records at the age of 37

Y'all going to miss LeBron when he retires 68-69 to 270 light on his feet to guard point guard all the way up to a center play all positions 10NBA Finals four-time Champion multiple teams

Mans a living legend should be in mt Rushmore of athletes

reporter was literally telling the truth bron! u did well u made ur career excellent

the first reporter to ever get respected by a NBA player

damn I can listen to this the whole day lmaooo

Look at him smile, such an innocent smile 😊

"If it happened to James It can happen to Shady They do the same to Brady More people hate me than love me This game will make you go crazy.” - Eminem

Nobody downplays his career, there is standards depending on certain levels. He’s definitely top 5 if not top 2. He definitely was NOT clutch his whole career. Shoutout to D. Wade for being his mentor and molding him into the player he is today, also Spoelstra for embracing that part of his growing process. Lebron is one of a kind, he’s our version of Magic.

Man this makes me teary eyed

Facts it’s good he’s getting some respect lol cuz boy the Lebron hate is real sometimes 😂😂😊

The feeling that someone truly appreciates you despite all the hate special on this matter.

Its hard to find someone who dont down play lebron like he aint nicknamed the kind for no reason

Take him for granted man. The 🐐
