You should have named the video 10 people who went from proverty to prosperity
My cousin’s live in Tomball it’s pronounced like the name Tom and the word ball like in basketball
Ball is life
Melo or dwade should’ve been a piston but instead we got darko!! I’m still hurt about that
ghuddy7445 haha
ghuddy7445 yes, when you think about it, Pistons have lost at least 3 championships in the franchise history. One in 1988 because of "foul" by Laimbeer on Kareem, and potentially 2 rings with Melo
What's that post-rock song @ 14:30??
The jimmy butler one got me in tears
We completely agree. She really should not have done what she did.
Is this your first time hearing about his story?
They should make a movie on Jimmy Butler, hell of a story
God bless them all
Day n nite..
The Croatian,Bosnian & Serbian wars were from 1991-1998

Lebron in the coolest guy ever
He really is!
Did you enjoy the video James?
Me and Melo grew up close to each other within about 7 miles but 7 Miles can make a huge difference in Baltimore. Hell 7 blocks can make a huge difference there to be honest. Josh Boone who was a number one pick and Marshall Strickland
Very true
Epic voice guy?!

You can talk about basketball greatness on the court. But when you thinks the lives that Kobe and Curry had, or even Michael Jordan, the had a clear path, a perfect childhood. Whoever says that mones isn't all in live, it's ok, but that person have not struggled because of money ever. When you have a childhood, a live, like LeBron, during 18 years, while Curry had everything he wanted, stability, fame, NBA contacts... and then you think what LeBron had to go through, you should take your hat off. Because, even with his talent, only 1 of a million could become the person he is now. Good man, good family man, role model...
May be he will not finish his career being the best basketball player ever, but overall, he is one on a billion.
