  1. If he is not the goat idk who is๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿ’ฏ

  2. It's just Bron Bron doing GOAT things as usual๐Ÿ€
    Appreciate this man, what a game, what a Legend๐Ÿ”ฅ

  3. I remember when they said Lebron couldn't do it in the west because the east was weak. ๐Ÿ˜‚

  4. Michael Jordan said that LeBron is the best basketball player in the world, LeBron James has said that MJ was his idol growing up. I started watching the NBA because of Michael Jordan and LeBron has kept me watching these 20 years !! So, I say that ok, Jordan is the GOAT and LeBron is the King ๐Ÿคด

  5. AD makes that dunk, then immediately steals the inbound pass. Talk about staying locked in. This is the AD we need, not the one the media has made into an elite scorer. GET READY Jokic, things are about to get heavy in the West.

  6. I was watching the game on Espn and the announcers said it was the loudest crowd to date. I couldnt hear the crowd. Its usually louder on TNT and Laker channel. ESPN probabably muted the crowd.

  7. lol too much lbj gawking in these comments as if ADs defense isn't why the Lakers are in the WCFs

  8. Bron Really a Nigga Lmao ๐Ÿคฃ ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿฟ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿฟ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿฟ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿฟ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿฟ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿฟ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ

  9. Why does LeBron gets all the credit for the win!! W/O AD and Reeves contributing to this game, they would have loss. He had a lot of turn-overs during crucial moments as well as some bad passes and three point attempt that fell wayside, but you don't mention those!!! I like LeBron but come on, give credit where credit is DUE!! Basketball is a TEAM game…

  10. Goat james im praying for your 5th ring ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿซก๐Ÿซก๐Ÿซก๐Ÿซก๐Ÿซก๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ

  11. In the midst of internet trolls, crybabies/haters and arguments about how who is "the goat", I wonder if people actually appreciate the greatness that they are witnessing?…

  12. in the 1st 5 games he played like a role player this game 6 he finally played like himself.
    Bron's psychological tactic works fooling warriors thinking he was half-injured just like how kerr announced his players injuries.

  13. Let us enjoy the greatness while Lebron is still playing๐Ÿ’ช. His achievements are unprecedented๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿ‘….Haters have to grow up and can always stay with their own GOAT or BEST picks wthout hating. If you want to be respected, learn to give back the RESPECT.
