- This video has taken me an entire year to put together and will probably be one of my last videos. It's the best I can do in terms of creativity, storytelling and video production... enjoy!
Footage owned by or taken from:
- ESPN
- NBA
- Los Angeles Lakers
- UNINTERRUPTED
- NBA on TNT
- MaxaMillion711
- Golden Hoops
Edited on: Premiere Pro and Videoleap
For one particular part, HEAVY inspiration was used from "FlowMotion - Florent MOAL" and his video " LeBron James - Fail To Succeed - 1080p HD ". I remember watching that video a long time ago and really liking the use of that song with LeBron's first couple years with the Miami Heat. I did not know how similar the end result became until just a few minutes before posting. Apologies for the lack of originality there, but the video is done and I can't change it now. You can check out their channel here: / @flo9cp3
To a lesser degree, but inspiration in style was taken from "Piotrekz Productions" and his video " LeBron James - "KING OF LA" " for the first Los Angeles Lakers sequence and song choice throughout the video. Check out his channel here: / @piotrekzprod - Sport
It would be appricated if I could recieve feedback on what everyone's favourate part of the video is. Just reply to this comment and let me know 👍
Edit: After this NBA season is over I plan to re-upload this video with an improved ending, improved intro and improved thumbnail
Soundtrack list 😃
Labron Miami run.
Intro
Great job man balancing the negative commentary like skip then showing how he performed.. I wish you added the Brooks he's too old poking bear commentary at the end but overall kudos on this
The fact that you not only captured all the accomplishments but did so via a captivating story... Fuego stuff Brodie 💪👑. 🐐James 😎
This shit made me cry man. I lived in Cleveland from 2011-2021. (lived in 9 states total now) I was a Bron fan prior to that move and had moved up there for college. Just me and myself no family. The bonds I gained in that city just over watching Lebron from when he first returned (went to that first game back) to when he left will forever be in my memories. From being downtown Cleveland watching game 7 and being out all night in my jeep with the top off and the go pro rolling, to watching them come off the plane and JR still with no shirt, and to top it off the fat ass parade in the city. I wish everyone could experience something like that at least once. Being amongst millions of people and all celebrating the same thing. It's how the world should be and I have Lebron to thank for that time of my life. The city of Cleveland is forever in debt to that man idc what anyone has to say about that. Lebron James IS THE BEST BASKETBALL PLAYER EVER WE WILL EVER SEE.
Oh and AMAZING job on this film dude. This mans could have multiple movies on his life though lol if they did the Jordan series for Lebron they'd have about 20-30 episodes EASY
like when he reitres im actually going to cry ;/
@@Anonymous-gy4lp The biggest facts man. The game will never be the same.
LMAOOOOOO 💅💅🤡🤡🤡
Y’all will appreciate this man once he’s retired from the game. The world will stop
The US will stop not the world
The world stopped for kobe.....he ain't kobe.....they don't love him like that....only bronsexuals ...not real nba fans....not even real laker fans 😂😂😂
I will miss the floppings
@@thaaRealMFer9944chill mf, basketball is worldwide now prevalent in Europe, China and parts of South America.. his greatness will be missed and is like the mike Tyson and Jon jones of modern Era ball, once every decade or generation talent.. there hasn't been a guy like him since not zion or the ball's, maybe the guy from San Antonio well see
Him playing at this level at 40 or near 40 never been done before.. has been the number 1 basketball player since last year where you can argue jokic overtaked him. And the thing he STILL has it, would not be surprised if wins 1 or 2 more rings depending how the rest of Lakers play or they acquire a Luka or another game changing player
at least as we know it
Think about this..he's STILL here!💯💪🏾😤🔥🐐
This deserves 10x more views. Really sick. Music great
Thanks man. 10X views is what I'm hoping for in time
I remember every bit of highlights shown in this video, it’s gonna be heartbreaking when he retires
I just wanted to say that this is one of the greatest documentaries on LeBron that I've ever seen. You let the game speak for itself like LeBron has. People forget about all the battles LeBron went through and all the greats he faced and all the greats that denied him a championship. Very well done sir! 👑
He play full of shit it's so embarassing for him
This is the rawest documentary I have watched. He captured the heart of everything. Wow
Production is off the charts. Soundtrack went crazy. 100 mil by Cole at the end was perfect for this. Amazing work man
Thanks brother 🙏
He deserves every blessing he gets ❤
He proved ALL the haters WRONG!!!
..the fact that there are haters, well, someything is WRONG..
When literally no other athlete has none but opinion James actually got real haters out here @@micapalma9532
Maybe he should stop being such a fake and self proclaiming himself the goat, then maybe people wouldn't dislike him so much@@micapalma9532
The Greatest of All time
hahahahahahaha oh boy...grow dude.
the fact his "chasing" greatness says it so...
april 2023..nba players voted MJ 58% compared to James 33%
mind you, most of these nba players never saw how MJ played.
In his 13th season a reporter said "The days where Lebron gets 40 are over" in his 14th season a reporter said "He is playing at a level know one has ever played in their 14th season" Seriously how can these same reporters now argue who the GOAT is. He will be 39 years young next month and if the season where to end now or he continues to play like he has in the start of this season, he will without doubt be the 23/24 MVP and he didnt take 3 years off to recover his body. Also the claim that the competition was better 30 years ago is to say that the players back then where better than they are now, seriously thats your opinion, with all the state of the art training facilities that use science to get the best out of each player and team, How on earth can you say that players are not better now than they where 30 years ago in any sport, its just an emotional argument that holds no wait. The competition is much better now than what it was 10 years ago let alone 30 and 40 years ago and for him to dominate in his 21st season at the age of 39 is Legendary. King Lebron GOAT James...
Idc what anyone says lebron is my goat. Dude is a legend, once in a lifetime player. Talk about a guy who played in two era old gen and new gen, dominating throughout…
Moving to Miami is what truly allowed him to win the way he was born to. Best career move in the history of any sports. Cleveland front office would’ve made him just a spectacle and NEVER a champ
hahahahahaha...the fact that you are saying that is proof of ? C'MON
this is facts!
this move also makes him otherwise. he cant win without 2 superstars with him. that's a fact.
@@gian12carlo06 like litterally ANYBODY ELSE
At 74 I’ve witnessed NBA/ESPN productions aplenty, this is among the very best ever. Brilliant! Thank you. 🥂 🏆
ALOT OF THEM ATE THEIR WORDS.....THE KING
How can this have 77k views? Its a literal masterpiece about one of the best to ever lace up basketball shoes. Thank you for creating this absolute banger!
This video has gained 70+k views in like 2 weeks. For a channel as small as mine, that indicates that this thing has a shot at being a viral video... just gotta hope it keeps getting recommended to people 🤞
Don't disrespect Jordan like that.
Im not, Jordan is the best player ever no doubt. Im just congratulating the editor for making a good video.@@thaaRealMFer9944
Glad I have witnessed this man play the game
He is like wine’s, the older the better.
most emotional is the 3-1 comeback in 2016.
most emotional for kyrie , lebron james only block highlights haha
@@JahSkrupythat block change the game and momentum
@@JahSkrupyaverage bron haters 😅
@@user-gh5rk8xz3o ..i think that is a fact. Kyrie made the go ahead basket. did you watched the whole series...
for me very emotional 4-0 vs denver
One of the best player that i saw play this game. We are all witness history !
You like regurgitating the media narrative, don't you?
one of the best documentary / movie!!
I fckin love this bro, thank you for making this. The Goat bro!!
The real goat best player ever. Nobody has played as good for the longest
JORDAN-Greatness
JAMES-Witness
2- GOATS in The game of Basketball in different ERA👏🏆
Lebron GREATNESS 2003-2023
JORDAN irrelevant 2003-2023
not really, stat-wise and achievement, it's all MJ. LJ only has his longevity @@ReoLeo-ov7xh
@@ReoLeo-ov7xh It also hurts you so much to witness lebrons greatness for the whole 20 years and still going :)
@@ReoLeo-ov7xh ...TO THIS DAY, more Air Jordans shoes are being sold compared to Le flop James.
and the prices of Jordan's sneakers compared to Le queen is not even close..
oh, by the way - MJ is retired more than 20 yrs now...
the title itlself SAYS IT SO - "CHASING" greatness...MJ never chase anyone..but everybody is trying to chase?..who do you think?
and i will even challenge you. go ask le flop himself...he would rather have or had a career like MJ compared to his.....
grow up dude and get well soon....
@@artisambus9673 longevity is not and can never be the true measure of greatness.....
le bron has 63 NBA accolades. in 21 long yrs.
michael jeffrey jordan has 68 with the bulls, in less than 13 yrs. another 2 at wizards. 70 in 15 yrs. he even retired twice.
imagine in less than 15 yrs....le bron could play until hes's 50, i dont know if he can have, even just the same 70 nba accolades....
air jordan brand annual sale is 150 million
Le bron nike apparel brand annual sale is 35 million. both made by, how come nike allowed the air jordan brand...
jordan retired 20 long yrs ago...and yet sale is 4 times high compared to bron...
bron is a very good player....
but the world knows who is truly the great and the goat.
However we compare him to anyone before him,i could say,the moment he enters the nba,feels like every year until now and until he still playing,LeBron was always a great player in and out the court.yes,he was swept,he experienced game 7,but men,aside from longevity,making 3 different teams champions and him as the best player,thats uncomparable,and all the accolades that he is still pushing through,men,that's unbreakable.it's not time yet for retirement,age really is a number,thanks to lebron james!
The whole video is just breathtaking!!! But my favourite part was when he won the championship for his home Cleveland! And also when he won it for the lakers to honor the great Kobe Bryant! Much appritiation to you for making this amazing video, we are surely witnessing greatness and you've done your part by showing us that, it's just unreal!)
the title is so good Chasing Greatness is such a good name for the film cause of how high his expectations were and why he was called the chosen one even nearly 40 he is still pushing and chasing after all the glory at some point people gonna have to accept he is the GOAT jordan may have have better stats but at some point people gotta see like the sheer volume number and become so overwhelming and there a great way of saying it is "The Flame that burns twice as bright but burn half as long" lebrons longevity simply outmatches jordans slightly greater but shorter brilliance
GOAT
This has me emotional 🎉
Thanks bro, which part in particular?
He’s the Goat of My Gen as Jordan was the Last Gen.
I watched every second and every single minute absolute Masterpiece 🔥🔥 job well done 👍🏾
The fact he thought he was a "heel" is mind boggling. He's the hero at the end of the story. I think you captured that journey of self discovery on his part. Meanwhile here we are, watching from afar as this kid grows up in front of us to become quite literally the greatest of all time.
Sick combo of straight up highlights without losing the plot. Noice dude.
Bro those people who love and know basketball will cry 😢
This deserves so much credit, well done SP Productions.
That was one hell of a job man! Taking this shit to another level! 🔥🏀💪🏽
I know Jordan was great....but LeBron had to carry more than Jordan, respectfully James is up there with him. 2 Goats 🐐 in their Era . Now send this video to Skip himself. Priority 💯
LeBron is nowhere close to mj.. don't be ridiculous...
@@airkunastop being an absolute tard.
@@airkunanope
ok why?@@airkuna he already passed him in points, and assists, and rebounds, 3pts, fg%, blocks, steals... if you say 6-0 or killer instinct dont bother replying lol
THERE ARE 100S OF REASONS.....BUT WHAT YOU'RE SAYING IS NOT TRUE, I MEAN TRUE BUT HE PASSED MJ BECAUSE HE PLAYED MUCH MORE SEASONS... @@Rize14
I always wanted to see Lebron james to win championships and become a hallfamer all them hater can no discredit his legacy that he built on the court and in the NBA long live the KING1👑👑
no one is discrediting his accomplishment...its you people who are making it when you say he is the goat.
nba players themselves voted, in favor of a man retired 20 yrs from now. and yet sell shoes twice as lebron. and not to mention the price per shoes...
True greatness never chases anything imo
finally someone making sense...
This was 🔥🔥🔥
WOW what a movie, started shedding tears. Lebron's story is so impressive even from day one.
My king my GOAT 🔥🔥🔥👑👑👑👑
You did that bron again and again WELL DONE!!!!
One of the best productions I have seen, great video!
What. a. documentary. GREAT JOB !!
10/10 video every thing is perfect keep up the work ma guy 👍🏽and lebron mannn if i lost all my memory or had a second life i would still idolize lebron.....this man is the greatest of the greatest 👑
I just love how Hebron proved Kevin Garnett wrong in years to come
Yooo this doc is made to perfection. Editing, soundtracks all on point. 🔥🔥🔥 you could’ve put that Brook sound bite too tho 😂😂
🔥🔥🔥🔥 From Start To Finish
Great video,thanks for sharing. Every time I heard that “Cleveland, this is for you”;made me cry. This man loves basketball so much! He gives his all. My idol! Good luck 2024!
alot of emotions watching this. fantastic video.
Incredible documentary. Absolutely incredible. the way the whole thing was orchestrated, just phenomenal
What do you think was the best part of the video?
Dude forreal this was some movie type work, idk what you do for a living but hopefully this! I was trying to turn on something to fall asleep to and I may have seen these moments 100 times but you present in a way that gives me damn goosebumps!!!
Yeah I’m hoping to one day rock some kind of career in video or film. I can’t make money off these yt videos though so it’s pretty rare I make on produced at this level.
That in game reverse double clutch Dominique jawn at full speed was the nastiest ever and that Vince carter Jawn he did !
AMAZING shortfilm/doc
Great video editing the music all of it was amazing keep them coming 🔥🔥🔥
Wonderful video thanks for the effort 🤙🏼👑
This was the greatest Lebron James video I have ever seen
I am 25, My 🐐 is Shaq (inspire me a lot), Watching 👑 James since 2008, And IDC about people opinion, for me In My Life Basketball ERA 👑 James is The Best of the Best Player more than anyone. I gonna miss him so much when finally he get retired.
....there was a guy who won 6 times and never lost a finals. and to this day, he sells shoes twice more than any body. and he is retired 20 yrs already.
@@micapalma9532SHOE SALES DONT BELONG IN A GOAT ARGUMENT DUMMY
My favorite part is the 3-1 comeback theme music go good wit that 🔥
Perfect edit, pure feelings
What a masterpiece!
Music choices are fantastic! Great doc!
Now this, is a video worth watching a few times
The moment he retires, its gonna be sad. He was determined at a young age and now still determined. Work his ass off, and shit got so bad when he lost to Dallas, but stood his ground, didnt gave up and faced scrutiny the entire year to finally won. Thats mental and not much people can endure it.
You did what was best for you!!!! Much LOVE #BRONGAL
Lebron james is the goat
💪🏾
No he not 😂
@@TwentyGrandyeah he is
EH.. one of! There can't just be one imo..
👑 LEBRON 🐐
Man I couldn’t control the chills watching this video
Video muazzam hazırlanmış.Bize detaylı bir biyografi sunduğunuz için teşekkür ederim.Lebron bu zamana kadar hepimizi inanılmaz etkiledi ve belgeseli izlerken çok duygulandım.O benim basketbolu sevme sebebim, tekrar teşekkürler ❤

A lot of effort and commitment to produce something like this.
congrats for your work 👏 👏 👏
wow just wow good work man loved it
God bless your career forever history high level example
This is amazing
Great MOVIE nice Job fellow
Great video! Lebron is the Goat! No doubt about it.
nuh, nba players of today made their vote, back april2023...google it. you'll be surprise who they voted as the goat.
...and he was retired 20 yrs from now....
LeBron James I may not be a fan or love him, but cant deny his greatness on and off the court. Family man, married, gives back , created a school, 3 different teams championship miami, come back to Cleveland,3 one come back, then do it in LA Lakers. I Have to admit Lebron James is the greatest in the World, especially in overcoming all odds. I am convinced he has earned my respect and title of the Overall Goat, ever .
Straight out of high school
No college experience and stood up to all the hype! The GOAT!!!!!
hahahahaha the goat, oh dear...keep dreaming
This video is amazing 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Great doco man
Lebron James played at such a high level in high school, it's hard to believe.
Idol LeBron James #23💜💛
Can’t wait for the goat documentary 🔥🔥🔥🔥
...oh boy you are going to wait for your lifetime....
@@micapalma9532 yuuup sadly
Basketball's king for ever. When he was 33/34 years old i was afraid not see him anymore play a game. Fortunately he is a monster.
..king...really. perhaps king of turn overs. check his stat
Amazing
this film isn't finished yet... coming soon in the theater near you; ...i love this athlete. i love this game.
That's my idol if he retired for me i think the game called BASKETBALL its still a Basket but without LBJ maybe it will be boring for me only greatness will be remembered always respect ❤
incredible video!
This is the best video of Lebron I've ever seen !!
Couldn't deny LeBron's skill individually in the game of Basketball. People don't respect him as much! Anyway, it's actually my first time to cry over a sports game when the Cavs won at the 2016 finals. It was monumental to witness. I hope LeBron gives us one more banner shot. Lakers truly needs cards to clinch another banner.
Wow! Awesome work man!
You inspire me man I tagged you in the description
Lebron is my 🐐
LeBron James is more then a goat he is a legend, a god of basketball, and the king of the court
This could possibly be the greatest youtube video ever produced. Get this man on the Lebron documentary when he retires.
Yeah bro netflix gotta give me a call
goat james❤
Great vedio ❤
I’m an MJ as the GOAT kinda man, but damn if your editing didn’t give me the chills. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🫡 GREAT job.
Goat 🐐🔥 mans been getting hate b4 he touched the nba floor
This was great 👍😃
