[Highlight] Marcus Smart gets the steal from Durant’s pass and LeBron throws it down on the other end
Motherfucker carrying us like his early Cavs days.
Expect nothing less from the GOAT.
LeBaa…
Imagine if those Cavs teams had Luka Nard and Marcus Smart
If Bron is 10 years younger, we’d be the favorite to win it out without Luka and Reaves. Dude basically guarantees 30,8,8 in playoffs and every other game gives you a 40,10,10.
bro forget prime LeBron. Even 2020 point god Bron makes this team a favorite.
Even select LeBron keeps them in it.
Not only because of level of play, a young(er) lebron that doesn’t need to conserve energy is a great fit next to Luka.
Marcus Smart and Luke Kennard this series somehow looking more useful than some of his “star” teammates in the first Cav stint lol
Because they’re better players.
Well lebron gave one of those stars depression so duh/s
would Reeves be available for 2nd round?
he might be available if it goes game 6⁄7 for sure round 2. Luka has a chance for round 2 as well
THE FUCKERY CONTINUES
THE FUCKERY WILL CONTINUE UNTIL MORALE IMPROVES
oldest player to do goat shit
It’s pretty bizarre to watch lebron taking off for a 10 foot dunk with kd on defense like this is the 2012 finals
Except instead of Steph, Klay and Dray, KD has some youngbloods on the court. Talented, but noticeably not quite ready for playoffs. I do hope they get better at home.
Otherwise “maybe KD burners were right” is not a stretch
2012 was the OKC Thunder finals. Russ Harden and Ibaka
I’ve been saying it’ll get worse. The problem is their chemistry is shit because they’re all at each others throats and blaming each other for the losses. During a time out they had Sengun and Eason shouting at each other as they got to the bench.
They can’t play like a team when the vibe is this bad.
They all seem to hate Sengun. Meanwhile KD thinks they’re all beneath him.
Ime might be a terrible vibes coach.
KD and a bunch of regards.
He’s been the oldest player in the league since Iggy and Carmelo retired like 3+ years ago… how he can still be the best player on the floor at this point is ridiculous
old goat
#MY GLORIOUS KING HAVE YOUR WAY WITH ME
Crazy to think that Bron has played for so long, he even has been a part of several actual generations of memes, on top of his other longevity accolades. Memes that went outside of of NBA circle or became templates.
Dunk with Wade, Decision, Lance stuff, he boomed me, scream if you love, smiling through it all, reading, all the wine/Hennesy memes, Sprite Cranberry, sunshine, pregnant AI and probably at least a dozen more.
that man has entire generations of memes
Username checks out…
JERSEY MIKES
Bro imagine what 2018 LeBron would do to this rockets team lmaooo
You don’t even have to go that far just take his 2020 form. All those layup he missed this game would have been an And 1 in his 2020 form.
Man I think even Pre-Solomon Hill Bron would do the job
I mean…current LeBron is doing the job spectacularly
COVID Bron woulda been dunking each of those.
10%% true besides the fact that he wouldn’t get the and 1 call. Idk when it happened, but there is a point maybe 8-9 years ago where he stopped getting calls he previously used to
It was 2018 when it really started
Just watch the LeBronto highlights, same color jersey and everything
Might be hot take.
But 2018 bron with this lakers team win the ring with just reaves and no luka.
If Smart and Vanderbilt were still in their prime defensively maybe
It will be Lebronto v2.
Hyper athletic 20 year old wing not jumping with a 41 year old in a close game in the playoffs
Amen can’t do what 41 year Bron is doing
Bron was hunting Amen in the post he’s too small
I think he told him that. He was chatting with Amen while they were waiting for a free throw and Amen asked for a switch with a different player (I think Eason)
Top defender in the league that was a sperm when Lebron was in the NBA being compared to MJ.
Sperm is just a fertilizer with half of DNA. Also sperm is produced constantly and dies after few days but a woman is born with all her eggs….he was an unfertilized EGG cell when LeBron was in the NBA
Jesus you’re fun
I don’t blame him. By the time he rotated, it was too late and he would’ve been turned into a screen saver if he jumped.
He had way more than enough time to contest. He looked at him coming straight down the lane, and for a second moved like he was about to go up with him but then just stayed put. Lazy defensive effort
No by the time he realized, it was too late, he would just get Lebron to and 1 or shoot free throws
nah the king’s haki was just too strong
He should’ve rotated earlier then like he was supposed too as the back line defender.
Who cares? It’s the playoffs you have to try to contest every shot and bron isn’t the best free throw shooter. Being more worried about getting postered than winning is mind boggling
Cuz ur soft
Everyone scared to go against the goat
It’s honestly wild Thompson didn’t go for it. He’s one the most athletic defenders in the league and this is with the game on the line about go down 0-2, and he just stands there.
He already knew he was beat. LeBron been bullying him all game, he wasn’t gonna do shit except give him an and-1
He would just get Lebron an and 1
Good business decision, nothing he could as soon as LeBron caught the ball running downhill
Hard foul make him earn it. But the kid didn’t wanna get banged on
Scrub the vid in slow mo, lebron takes off from the dotted circle and never dribbles, hes already full steam ahead when he catches
Thompson is late (and much smaller), hes going to get both of them hurt with a hard foul on someone in the air, that would be dirty and stupid
Kids soft
If he hurt Lebron, Adam Silver would have him executed
Sometimes you just physically pause before you’re ready to collide with someone lebron’s size in midair (even if ur not small urself). Then he’s gone past in a flash.
LeBron a little sneak. Tried to act like they playing it slow and snuck to the basket lol
Caught em lackin
They relaxed with 1 minute left in a close playoff game, seeing it punished is so satisfying
fr, just from the clip you would have thought there was 3:48 left in the third.
o garbage time, they’re done mentally.
This mindfuckery won’t go on for much longer
that was neat this guy is just a savant at this game lol
Vintage YMCA old dude move
Dude was straight up bodying the Rockets’ wings tonight. Even on this play he gives Eason like a defensive lineman move
lebron trick y’all, man, like he playing slow.
one of the most AI-sounding sentences you could probably say dude
fuck outta here. AI ain’t using my vernacular
I love you Lebron
Stockholm syndrome
Always good to see a son that loves his father
The fuckery will never end
Bron gonna play for another 5 years.
I think he can play 2-3 more years in a really good team for 30-35 mins tops and still can run as the 2nd or 3rd option. His IQ and control will always be valuable for any team that is serious.
people have been saying this since 2018. I’ve given up being rational about it and just going to accept this will carry on in perpetuity.
hahah I guess so, because it really doesn’t make it sense anymore. I’ve never seen anyone more disciplined than him in the history of this game. He never cheats the process and that’s why he’s blessed. Knock on wood, it’s a privilage to still be able to watch him competing in a playoff series.
lakers fans wanted him either off the team or on a minimum contract 2 months ago btw
I remember some of them were saying waive him earlier this season lmaoooo
To be fair he’s absolutely not maximized next to Luka as an individual player
LeBron was never meant to be an Aaron Gordon-style role player which is what he has to do quite a bit with the healthy Lakers because of how ball dominant the guards are
Laker fans are the biggest idiots in this country and yet they get blessed to watch LeBron, unfair
Look at the comments from lakers fans on this clip in December where LePossum stopped to talk to the Suns bench mid game when Lakers were down 20
dumbest fanbase in the game, and yet somehow the most spoiled fanbase in the game
That’s what makes the fanbase dumb lol too entitled
Fuck off there are a lot of laker fans.
Many of us Laker fans love LeBron.
Lakers fans are trash.
lakers fans
No the fuck we didn’t what are you smoking
The 41 year old with two of the sickest dunks of the whole night. It does not make sense!
Such a great website.
Never seen it before, that is dope
Marcus Smart having one of the best playoff games of his career alongside a 41 year old LeBron James. who could have seen this timeline coming
Smart got his hand in there on the KD turnover too. What a game
I’ve been reflecting on this. He’s been playing at another level
KD must have turned over five times at least in the fourth. Looks like bro just cant handle double team at all.
Smart clamped him
i wanna know what he says in the group chat after the game.
At some point he’ll replace all his friends with burners. “Just can’t shit talk teammates with these cats!”
That’s his BBIQ fighting against himself though. He sees the double coming, he knows where he’s supposed to pass it to beat the double, but his brain is screaming at him ‘god damn it, don’t give this dude that can’t create or shoot, the ball right now!!!’ And so he flubs it.
Nah he’s just straight ass getting doubled. Literally every other team he’s played on he’s had a word class/all time ball handler. Westbrook, Harden, Kyrie, Curry.
Splitting hairs. Is this not the most offensively inept team he’s been a part of?
It’s not really about the offensive firepower, it’s the handling ability. The POA needs to be good in doubles, he’s never had to be the POA (and he sucks at it). Even FVV back and this series would probably look different.
I cannot believe this man is 42 and played 40 minutes of playoffs basketball and only at the age of 42 he looks visibly gassed, like every other 20 year old normally do,
He’s 41. He’ll fall off the cliff by 42 FOR SURE
THANK GOD this cannot go on forever
Lol, its funny how we have been saying this for years. And in the regular season, he has been getting worse and worse, but once we are here, he is still dropping 27+
I think it was Al Horford who told a story about how it was disturbing to see how unbothered LeBron was towards the end of a very tough and grueling game, like an uncanny valley sort of feeling.
I mean that series Al was referring to was in 2018. took 8 years for us to visibly notice Lebron’s fatigue.
Yeah, where everyone took turns trying to defend him and he just bodied all of them.
I still remember him taking it to the rim with like jaylen brown trying to really onlt tug him down and still he made the layup.
That was like the end of the 4th quarter and Lebron had been playing pretty much every single game/minute.
It’s a sign of respect in rockets’ culture to clear a path to the basket for their elders
KD’s 9th TO… Brutal
Uhh what the fuck? 9 TOs against the injured Lakers?
You could argue that Lakers are better defensively with Luka and Austin out. Offensively is the total opposite of course.
Gramps shouldn’t be able to do this wtf
Marcus Smart is playing some ridiculous ball these first two games of the series
How he’s been most of the year for us. Dude should have been in the DPOTY talks. 0 chance he would win nor should he but he should have been brought up.
Smart in DPOY talks? and a Lakers fan saying this. I’m in tears
I’m just glad another fan base gets to experience what this guy does on the defensive side of the ball. Consistently doing all the little things while qbing the defense from the perimeter. Truly a treat to watch.
I cannot believe this man exists
GOAT
I love how he slow walked all the way to the top of the key and then turned on the fucking jets like it’s 2008
Bron mentally shattered them going into game three. How is this old man making us look like junior varsity bench out here?
Smart has been amazing
“I had an epiphany Saturday morning, and I’ve thought about it 2 nights, 3 days. Hey Lebron, Ben Simmons is here, we’re all good.”
I don’t think NBA will ever be the same after LeBron retires…..I might be dead by then, but still….we’re watching a legend!
Goat doing goat things 🐐
Literally the most grown man jam possible.
Still cuts like a man 15 years his junior.
Houston some bums defensively, idk how they’re so bad.
No Luka no Austin, I thought we’d be getting clamped and they’re getting roasted by old ahh Bron and Marcus smart and Luke kennard lol
I’m as old as LeBron. Just say ass god damn it. You’re making me yell at clouds over here!!!!
he could be one of those christian guys who try not to cuss bc of jesus or something
LeOver
Dude played the entire 4th and young men guarding him look gassed
That was a hilarious old man move, signaling the slow down and then jumping the gun, crazy he can still go like that
Smart is MVP of this game today
lakers sweep inbound
Don’t know who was guarding LeBron, but there’s no way you can play defense like that in a clutch playoff game
Bron got that secret juice. Why he jumping like he’s back in miami 😭😭
Down 2-0 against 41yo Lebron without Luka or Austin is crazy.
LeBron saw the Thanos “Fine, I’ll do it myself” edits and said “Watch this” this is so nuts
Second half kd has been horrendous bum.
He can’t stop getting away with this
The greatest of all time
Lebron pulled a Houdini on Eason. Telling him to slow it down and then sneaking in the cut. Lmao
Did LeBron fake like he was tired on that cut?
LeFuckery
Why was that so easy
How many dunks can a 41 year old make in a game
Lowkey more impactful than Reaves
Is the Rockets defense allergic to the paint?
9 turnovers from KD is shocking
I love you LeBron James
KD in the passenger seat again.
LOL
What is sengun doing lol
5 pt game and the Rockets walking around on defense. Pack it up man.
Bro if you can’t beat them with KD back and Luka and Reaves out, issa wrap. We’ll see you in the second round ✌️
You shouldn’t be able to do that at 41 years old
Lebron James is 41 years old dunking multiple time in the playoffs as the best player on the floor
No one would believe you 10 years ago
Helluva pass there
Eason be like “No way this 41 old man gonna accelerate”
This was in minute 39 of his playtime.
Goat shit.
If Durant jumps in the air to pass 90% of the time he will choose the worst passing lane of the 4 options he has
KD looks and plays older than LeKing
Its like his fucking stare at the ball into pull up 3 move, except now its slow walk and gesture into cut for a massive dunk. The arsenal of this man.
[removed]
Hate to see you mad at other people’s happiness
Sometimes when I tell people I’m a Lakers fan, they ask me about LeBron getting old.
I’m like, ‘yeah..he’s old. And he is slowing down. But slowing down for him is averaging 20’ and shit like this. He’s still SO good. It’s crazy.
Udoka better start looking for a real estate agent.
smart was MVP tonight. showing why he was defensive player of the year 4 years ago + clutch shooting.
Let a 41 y/o man just blow by you. Crazy.
I was always team kd but dam ever since the nets years i can’t even watch him play in close games anymore. Complete fraud
Durant doesn’t know how to make plays . He just scores lol
Amazing court vision. Great pass by smart. King finish. It’s been such an incredible 23 years to watch. Thanks LeBron.
Marcus Smart is good?
People were saying Lakers won because no durant but it seems its worse with him back.
KD gotta be investigated on this one. Why is the BEST MIDDY SHOOTER EVER passing the fucking ball here!? Hes at the elbow!!!!
Here I am in the Philippines with my future wife and my King continues to dominate. Life is good.
That’s my goat
