"The Decision" deserves a deep rewind | LeBron James' free agency 2010
Vložit
- čas přidán 29. 06. 2018
- Everyone remembers "taking my talents to South Beach," but the weeks leading up to The Decision had several twists and turns and rumors that really did make it hard to say where LeBron's first foray into free agency was going to wind up.

Beef History: The New York Knicks vs. Free Agency
destroy 212 underrated comment
especially after what happened this year 😂😂😂😭😭💀
That would be an amazing episode
HAHAHAHA
The knicks are always getting bullied its on them tho 😂😂😂
Why is he wearing the same shirt as LeBron?!?! I’m dying! 😂 👔
And the same white t-shirt under it, too.
Seriously though, why?!? He never even addressed it 😂
It's not the same shirt, they are very similar tho
Kevin Penfold lmfao good one💯😂
LMAO, I ain’t even realize dis
“And a 13 year old Donavan Mitchell is out side I don’t know why I’m telling you this”
That’s had me dying
@Phyyre Donavan Mitchell is a rising young star in todays nba who went to that special coz LeBron was his idol. He was drafted in 2017 pick 13 at age 20
King A it was a joke!
King A It’s literally in the video
Some people LEGIT don’t get sarcasm... I don’t get it... (Poe’s law) but it’s beyond sarcasm.... it’s a JOKE that goes on for like 20 seconds. (Gr gonna comment it goes on for *17* seconds)
And A 13 year old Donovan Mitchell’s teammate would go on to cause the collapse of sports so let’s not forget that
LeBron in 2010 to Cleveland: I've decided to take my talents to South Beach
LeBron in 2019 to Lakers Roster: I've decided to SEND your talents to New Orleans in exchange for the services of Anthony Davis.
John Harlowe I mean Ingram looks good but are you really sold on lonzo?
@@zachruggiero3681 maybe he will breakout next season
@@doomguy4197 yo chill he still young bruh
@@zachruggiero3681 the more i see lonzo with zion, the more promising they look as a duo
Haha
Almost a decade later and LeBron is still good enough to cause the same hype around his free agency
TheRealBeatMaster lebrons career is scripted
Except his "Talents" have diminished
well he brought both teams titles and should of repeated with the cavs if not for injuries and threepeated in miami if not for the worst game of his career at the worst time ...2 wins away ...lebron should have 5 rings by now..
Asmosis Jones why not the other way around? He is lucky he won 3 titles but those 2 titles he have could go the other way around. He could have been 1-8 in the finals.
Not really.. him opting out really limits him to be about 3 teams that have the proper cap space to sign him and other players..
Going to Miami wasnt a mistake, but making this 1 hour special was
Xo you said it's a mistake but the money they got from this was donated to charities.
Patriots lol xo never donated anything so not surprise
Miami fans still feel ripped off because Lebron owes them 6 more rings from when he was on stage in Miami with Wade and Bosh.
yeah..it was pure ego boost and fake and it just was unatural
globalicon2012 just leave
Healthy Rose and Lebron would have been sick
One of my favorite What-Ifs. Another high-powered scorer and distributor next to LeBron would have been devastating. Plus the good defense that team was already playing
What are you two talking about? He had wade next to him lol, very similar player to rose so we pretty much saw exactly that.
The main difference had he joined the bulls is Tom would have run him so ragged he’d have retired two years ago heh
ValensBellator
Imma have to agree with this. Thibadeau destroys players and he destroyed Derrick Rose. Who’s to say Rose wouldn’t have gotten injured like he did just 2 years after the Decision.
And Noah, Boozer and maybe a young Jimmy Butler damn!!!!!
D-Rose to the Lakers for Kuz, Talen Horton-Tucker, and 2 2nd rounders.
The most embarrassing part was having the event sponsored by bing.
D Rose and LeBron would have been crazy
And now that child, Donovan Mitchell, is a Cavalier. What a world.
Clevelands future would be decided that day, but not by Lebron
@@brettt141I mean LeBron literally led the charge to their only championship 😭
@@somregularguy Right. I like Mitchell but i highly doubt he'll be able to take the Cavs to the finals like LeBron did numerous times..(including the 1st time as a 23 year old with a bad roster)
@@persistentlypathetic6820 there's never going to be another LeBron
@@persistentlypathetic6820It’s not just up to him. There’s other players on the team.
That Bulls team would have been awesome
Gingam until Boozer became one of the Worst free agent signings ever and Rose's legs fell apart. Maybe they would've won a ring that first year, but after that... shitstorm of haterade
mst3k54 and how do you know that'll happen? LeBron joining is already a what if.. so what if D Rose doesn't destroy his legs and Boozer became a decent signing?
mst3k54 they would have never got boozer instead would have got wade or bosh
@@valo249 We did get Wade.
eventually.
@@thenotoriousdig610 lol when he washed up😂😂😂
Bosh's neck still catches me off guard to this day
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Brooo😭😭💀
who else is watching this in 2019 when everyone is waiting for kawhi answer if he will stay in Toronto or go to la lakers or la clippers
Rida draws he should have picked lakers 😮
Carter H facts😪
Clippers it is
@@CarterH1998 There's only 1 ball, if Kawhi went to the Lakers he would have had to sacrifice parts of his game to fit with the others. This has happened every time a big 3 formed.
@@CarterH1998 nah he should be beating LeBron not being a third wheal for him and AD... Now the la rivalry will be insane and everygame will be different.
God I can’t wait to relive all this drama again.
clemsontige please tell me he’s not making another special 😓
wilderac he will and he'll join my warriors along with AD and PG
"In this fall, I will be taking my talents to the JBA, and join the Los Angeles Ballers"
clemsontige
It is SOOOOOOO Lit.
And LeBron could be changing his mind so many times now
Meh he's 33 now, 2010 was his prime
Perfect timing.
I mean...duuuhhhhh
u dont say
That's kinda the point...
What timing? They made this video due to this possibly happening again, they wouldn't have made it otherwise
It wasn't uploaded at random..
The 3 times LeBron James went into unrestricted free agency is where he would wind up winning the title year 2 of his deal.
Year 2 in Miami 2012
Year 2 in Cleveland 2016
Year 2 in Los Angeles 2020
Do you see a pattern here?
Presidential elections are big years for LeBron
And he joined the teams 4 years apart
He likes to move
you’ve just shown us.
Yeah. As soon as a team outlives its usefulness, he sells out
I remember being at work and this being on the big TV's and everyone got quiet and went whaaaat. This is in buffalo. I couldn't even imagine what it was like in Cleveland or Miami. I remember it being so bizarre. You would think the election was on
omg, buffalo, aye whats good, im from buffalo also
Go Bills
The 2016 election.
The 30 for 30 on this will be insane.
Muzikyle 😂
whats there to research?..lebron wade melo and then later bosh and cp3 all became buddies being friends and from the same draft classes in back to back years and at olympics and fiba play from 04 06 and 08 and all star games being sinialr age taste guys and decided to play together except melo and cp3 chicked out ...
30 for 30: LeBron messed up. By Spike Lee
Lebron has said he wants to write a book about his life. Imagine this chapter of the book. Imnot much of a reader but if bron writes that book im absolutely reading it
Muzikyle is there plans for one rn
Can't believe it's been 8 years. Edit:Can’t believe it’s been 10 years.
Most people can't. Just like they can't stand the fact the Heat were a super team and Bron pulled what we knows as a "Durant Move"
Zira Tival GSW had positive odds to when the finals without Durant and he still went to play for them. The heat had bosh and wayde but they were not favorites to win a title before Lebron joined. That's why it's forever known as a "durant move".
Nathan Yemster I know. Crazy
Zira Tival no it would have been a Durant move if Lebron joined the Boston Celtic or spurs but he didn't do that now did he?
Nathan Yemster I know those last 8 years flew by!!!!
Most Unpredictable Free Agent Stars:
2010: Lebron
2014: Lebron
2016: Kevin Durant
2018: Lebron
2019: Kawhi
2021: Giannis?
Well Giannis did not enter free agency.
If Giannis leaves Milwaukee, I understand, but I'll be done with the Bucks. Milwaukee has been a team of wasted potential pretty much ever since Kareem left.
@Sharpshooter 02 I've lived in Wisconsin my entire 21 year life, and besides being a Pistons fan when I was 5 in 2004 (literally didn't even know they were good I think I just liked Ben Wallace's afro), I've been a near lifetime Bucks fan.
@White Lives Matter More I was half kidding writing that, I won't stop supporting them if Giannis leaves but I'm definitely going to stop watching them as much.
Nope Harden
Well kind of, no one expected him to extend
As a Heat fan I almost couldn't believe it was happening. I was hopeful Wade was staying and I was sure that Wade would stay if Miami could sign another big player. Somewhere in the back of my mind I knew Miami had space for a 3rd max free agent, but it wasn't until Wade and Bosh signed together, which already had me super thrilled, that I thought it was possible. The thing with Wade was I was super worried he was going to Chicago. I knew he wanted to play there. And it worked out. People try and say the big 3 was a failure, but four finals and two titles in four years is not a failure.
nobody says it was a failure. It's an all time team w possibly the best basketball player ever
None of them signed Max deals. They all had to take under the max or it wouldn't have worked. In fact I remember a lot of talk centering around what the contracts would end up looking like, as there was VERY little space left to fill out the rest of the roster. And absolutely no one who knows anything calls that era of the Heat anything close to a failure.
Only haters call it a failure.
4 Finals and 2 Championships. Only three teams have had more success the last two decades (Lakers, Warriors, and Spurs).
Yeah, if you only got Wade and Bosh, that would be a big enough deal. You'll win at least one.
But James? Ayeyeye.
Compared to Lebron’s “Not 1, not 2, not 3” bullshit you could say it was
The biggest NBA moment of all time.... "ima take my talents to south beach".... it's a household saying....
Not interested in sports
@@lindadawson7690 Get back in the kitchen. Make acee outlaw a sandwich.
Nu Nu
Linda Dawson make me one while you’re in there
I travel alot and say it all the time at work when changing location. "I'm taking my talents to Fort Wayne Indiana"
if he went to Chicago, that could’ve potentially been the worst career move ever. the Michael comparisons would ruin him
bruh, - especially lebron going to the arena with Jordan's statue out front...think the pressure would of been too much for him
Darryl Bowser
which is the same reason why I don’t understand why he’d wanna be in LA with the Kobe comparisons (even though there’s no real comparison).
bruh, exactly.. Too many comparisons would happen towards Kobe too you're right. Plus if Lebron went to LA the rest of the teams numbers would drop and guys like Ingram would be reduced to spot up shooters like what happened in Cleveland with Love, Clarkson, Thompson, and others
Darryl Bowser
I think his best bet is philly, honestly. the expectations would be somewhat high, but not like LA or Chicago for sure AND he stays in the east
Y’all are dumb if he had went to chiraq he would’ve had a better cast of teammates. It was reported years later that wade would’ve joined him in chiraq so it would’ve been drose dwade bron and Noah plus someone else.
Imagine not trading Hickson for Amare at that time
Imagine Lebron saying the Mavs weren’t a contender only for a year later to beat him
Keyshawn Varnado they weren’t on his UFA wish list. He had the Knicks but not the Mavs..... oh and him with Wade mocking Dirk for the flu because unfortunately Lebron James doesn’t like white folks and as shown in the past not a fan of Asians just ask Lin or Hong Kong
@@PhillyLeotardo25 he said when he was little he didnt because of the environment he was in
@@jhyquaviousshavers8302 I didn’t know Lebron was still little. This was just a year ago when he said they could all die.
@@PhillyLeotardo25 he didn't say they should die. Stop lying you dumbass haters. Y'all haters will really make up anything just to hate. Dumbasses🤭
I like how Seth picked a shirt that matches LeBron's shirt. I appreciate the effort, quality content right there.
Deeply appreciate the old PowerPoint WordArt sprinkled throughout the video lol
This is a great video. And the fact that Donovan Mitchell was there makes things even crazier.
the fact the poor lovely nets that season went 12-70 and thought they had a chance at lebron still makes me laugh....really?
na donovan mitchell bein there was just a coincidence. it couldve been any random youngster rookie bein there at the time
Asmosis Jones I’m from New Jersey your comment pains me lol.
republicansridiots naw Donovan Mitchell’s mom works as a teacher in town. He played basketball in Greenwich as well.
I know, bro!! So crazy! I can't believe I was able to type this because I'm shaking with craziness. So crazy, bro!
D.Rose ACL Injury against Sixers deserves a rewind
Definitely. I'm a Heat fan, but I LOVED watching healthy Derrick Rose playing. On the flipside, it was always scary watching him play against my Heat
"welcome to a moment in history" that line makes my skin crawl simply because reliving these situations I remember so vividly, it's wonderful to be able to go down memory lane and really see in detail what really happened. This series is amazing.
Basketball is my favorite sport. I like the way they dribble up and down the court.
Really bro?? Me too! I love basketball
This is old
Luide Mulumba im still into it tbh
Just like I'm the King on the microphone, so is Dr. J and Moses Malone
My favorite play is the alley oop.
Sports bars were filled just to see where this guy would go, what a crazy time
I remember leading up to this, this was ALL espn & other sports outlets was talking about! You couldn't get online or even walk down the street without hearing about LeBron. It was tiredsome.
“.....doing not crimes” 😂😂😂
Crazy to think 2010 was 8 years ago. Logically, i know that. It's just hard to believe.
2012 was the turning point.
2012 the last year were people truly felt alive
crazy to think 2018 was two years ago.
crazy to think 9pm was 30 minutes ago
crazy to think
Lebron to Yankees calling it.
Luka Dobrincic you mean the rangers
Luka Dobrincic cowboys
He's playin for the Dynamos my guys.
Islanders it is
Lebron to Real Madrid
and now that 13 year old kid, Donovan Mitchell is a superstar of the Cleveland Cavaliers
11:29 "There is a 13 year old named Donovan Mitchell, in the crowd outside. I have no idea why i am telling you this."
Today, Donovan Mitchell just broke the Cavs (and Lebron James') record of most points in a single game by a player, in a historic win against the Chicago Bulls. 71 points.
Seth, are you a time traveller?
I remember he kept saying the word "process" over and over again
Maybe that means he goin to philly
#trusttheprocess
He had it all planed all along hahaha
@Source ESPN
The process is a satanic newsletter. Jason Garrett uses the phrase a lot too. Lots of satanists are big on the process. Lol
DWAN DAWN we can only hope
Idk why but I actually laughed so hard when u said "lebron and friends" instead of the Cavs
It probably sucked for everyone else but for us who lived in S Florida during this time was truly amazing.
And to think, he had yet to win a championship.
I like the late 2000’s power point presentation 😂😂😂
By the way, that fake Sopranos story is just so, so, SO Knicks...
The Sopranos story is like peak level Knicks, it astounds me. Nevermind the fact that they cleared a ton of cap space for him and struck out anyway, as per the usual.
Is that video online somewhere? I can't find it.
@@hailmary7283 did you ever find it cuz I'm looking now
@@PhilTheIssuesGuy No sorry. I'm guessing Gandolfini's estate made sure that never saw the light of day.
@@hailmary7283 That's too bad I'm such a huge sopranos fan I would love to see even one more second of him playing that character. But I understand It was probably shot very close to the time of his unfortunate passing! Thank you so much for the reply!
I don't know what blew my mind more: the Heat signing the TOP THREE free agents that season or Durant joining a 73-win team.
Parker Brooks wade was re-signed so it was only the 2 free agents
Aaaand here comes boogie
exactly, he re- SIGNED so the heat signed him too lmao
No what blew our minds now is an all star is joining 6 allstars/former that are defending also the defending 2 time champions. If only kd was a bad attitude player and boogie not injured, boogie would have gotten a worse reception, since kd was touted a nice guy before bolting okc, which no one saw coming most were surprised by his decision to jump ship to another contender that beat him to get in the finals. Boogie meanwhile we all knew is still a nutcase despite his talents but got more sympathy because of the injury and some other lowball 2 yr offer, that makes sense but he said screw it.
Chandler Russell LeBron taught this whole generation how to sell out for rings… He is the original snake. 🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍 One for each finals loss.
This is seriously my favorite series on all of CZcams! Please keep making these! The editing and quality is amazing. I love the music that always starts playing near the end, to the build up of the actual event playing. Love this!!!
NBA Free Agency at its peak. LeBron had the entire basketball world in his hands.
I have a theory that LeBron James and the Cavaliers had an agreement that LeBron would leave to the Heat agreeing to return in a couple years so the Cavaliers could tank and get good lottery picks (example Kylie Irving and Andrew Wiggins which they used to get Kevin Love) so when LeBron returned he would have the team around him to win a championship that they couldn’t build through free agency and it worked. Very Smart move if true.
Hate to burst your bubble but no
Makes sense because they weren't going to lose with LeBron. But I doubt it
Nah not with what Gilbert said , I don’t think the cavs were expecting to be as bad as they were once lebron left
Lottery is rigged. You don’t win that many times a first pick even with the tanking. Heat tanked 15 win season and got the second pick?? -So Rose could go to Chicago. Just like LeBron went to Cavs. Just like Ewing went to Knicks. There could’ve been an agreement. The NBA chose LeBron, all eggs one basket, they willed him to Cavs and wanted him to win a chip there, sad part is that even after all that, they still had to rig the Finals to get LeBron to beat golden state and make good on that bs storyline.
Tyler Frost
I never thought of that. That is very possible!
Please do David Freese’s walk off home run in game 6 of the 2011 World Series.

yes
God no 😂
Yes
please no
Man I remember watching the Decision live at the edge of my bed
Such an amazing day/week for us Heat fans...I wish I could go back to that day
It was beautiful
Awesome awesome work, as always. You rock, man! Thanks for that!
I continue to be impressed at the pace at which the episodes in this high-quality series are produced. Great job Seth and Alex!
Still my favorite series on this great sports channel. I think just about all the series they produce on this channel are pretty interesting, but I really like learning about the history of history's greatest sports moments.
Prime derrick rose + LeBron would have been so damn good
Increible video. Thanks for uploading it
_Now JJ Hickson robbing houses now. 😂😂_
Russell Westbrook Oh yeah, he did that
How is this man gonna start and end a sentence with the same damn word?
Imagine if he went to Chicago
He couldve but the Bulls refused to make a trade so they could also sign chris Bosh, so they all decided to go to Miami
i seriously love this rewinder series! very informative and cool structure.
Appreciated the editing on this, and the 80's synth music.
10:48 do you know what song is this?
I always feels so empty after they finally show the clip and then just end it on that.
I came to CZcams for a cucumber salad recipe and next thing you know I’m here. Watching my third rewind video.
Almost shed a tear when he said he was taking his talent to South Beach... Such an awesome thing the hear knowing how that all turned out
lebron's Im coming home essay deserves a deep rewind
That was even gayer than the one hour tv special. And I’m 100% certain he didn’t write that himself.
@@jpmnky you're gay
Yes yesss more Rewinder
This is Kawhi right now but more humble lol
Lmao so humble yet he got PG13 to straight up demand a trade while on contract for 3 more years to just join him. I hated the way LeBron left in 2010 but Kawhi's was worse.
@@itskmillz this was before we found out how he truly is
What the spurs originally said about him i never believed but after this situation i believe them 100%
Kawhi was like ab to me. He said he would sit the whole season if Spurs kept him, so they released him. Then he got to the raptors and threatened to do the same thing. However the raptors didn't fall for his bullshit. Now he's on the clippers hanging away with 27 other stars. What do you mean "humble"?
So Kawhi makes a tv ad with a kings crown and declares LA his city, but that's more humble? He makes money on that move and his NB deal and he makes the same LA announcement with no charity component but again, more humble?
So you have an a-ha-haha-haha-snort-snort laugh?
Just started those 😂. They're pretty awesome lol. Thanks #SBNation
Also, I am laughing too damn hard at the ending. Haven't Knicks fans had enough misery?
Nope.... just waiting for Durant to spurn them for the Nets this offseason.

I remember that crowd was dead when I seen it live... Yu can her the balloons being popped. And hearts shattering. On the other hand I got see that man 20 times... Thanks for ya services LeBron
Hard to believe this summer it will be 10 years since.
And it was this decision that my beautiful city of Miami enjoyed years of victory in the NBA!
And, hatred lol
This was nice to watch as it added another layer of info to the Cavs rewinder you guys made
As a Cavs fan, this one hurt
Was happy he came back to deliver a chip despite playing for an owner who publicly trashed him and a fan base who cursed him.
If I were a Cavs fan, I wouldn't have wanted James back - it's like taking back an ex.
I would instead trade for Curry.
It's crazy that this happened 8 years ago. It feels like just yesterday I was watching all of this unfold while I was in college.
Right
Thank you.
beautifully worked video
I so much appreciate your sourness towards any knicks reference, only us cursed knicks fans understand the struggle. BTW you should do one about the knicks All circles of hell journey of the last 15 years.
LeBron really had a lot of great options on the table. Had he stayed in Cleveland, they may have found him a second co-star, like maybe Chris Bosh, plus coach Byron Scott running the show. Los Angeles and Chicago had great young players of their own. New York and New Jersey had the cap space. But Miami ultimately won out based on the most important thing - leadership. Specifically, leadership from the top. Arison and Riley were committed to treating their whole team well and supporting everyone.
Contrast that to owners like crazy Dolan in New York, nutty racist Sterling in Los Angeles, scathing Gilbert in Cleveland, or the ambitious but clueless Prohorkov in New Jersey. Reinsdorf at least won six championships in Chicago, but he's had trouble finding competent management since Krause left.
They also explained how Florida had no state income tax - meaning LeBron would save money and come ahead further than if he took Cleveland's max. But it was all underscored by Riley's seven championship rings - he showed them that they were all about winning.
Sure, other teams had the talent - some perhaps even more than Miami. But none had the leadership to back it all up. That's the difference.
It would be interesting to see a rewind on Barry Bonds being given an intentional walk with the bases loaded in the 1998 season. The game itself was in the middle of the regular season and not particularly important, but the backstory is really interesting, and the fact that it worked.
Sick channel, keep up the good work!
I was deployed during OIF when this happened, so I saw the buzz about it on Facebook, but this will help with context with me. Thanks.
1:33 look at that western playoff teams with at least 50 wins is crazy
Yeah the West was stacked until 2016 but it was such a long stretch that the Western conference was the dominant conference
11:27 thank you Kanye very cool
Crazy. I got chills just now.
I remember watching this...
Nice touch wearing the same shirt.
You need to do an episode on Jason Lezak's anchor leg in the Men's 4x100m freestyle relay at Beijing in 2008! It has an amazing backstory and is one of the all-time greatest moments in sports! Michael Phelps' 7th gold medal in Beijing.
Admit it or not. I remember exactly where I was watching this. And I called my best friend the moment after it was announced. He was at work at best buy
I love this video.
I feel so old watching a "rewinder" of The Decision. It feels like it was just a few years ago and it's almost been a decade.
what I took from this: LeBron broke D Rose's future. If he had gone to the Bulls, all the butterfly effect would have been different, and D Rose wouldn't have had to work so hard.
Thanks LeBron.
marocain That and I'm sure being overworked by his coach had something to do with it.
Shifu Careaga blame the coach
marocain wait so what’s the correct way to land ? I’m tryna imagine another way and can’t
Corneill Hilaire theres a whole video on why Rose's injuries were inevitable because of the way he landed. Look up "Why Derrick Rose got injured, scientifically "
Thomas G aight bro
"Taking my talents to South Beach"-One of the greatest quotes in NBA history!!!
Damn, great video. No corny ass wack ass try hard jokes. Light humor that relates to the subject, and just reporting the facts layed out beautifully. This guy is GOOD.
I'm been watching the NBA and my opinion on this theme is this:
I understand that some Cavs fans were angry with LeBron for his decision, but we can't forget that the management didn't do nothing to improve the team and possibly to help LeBron to get a ring.
But finally he would win a ring with them.
Big hugs for Portugal!

Good God SBNation.... Giving Greg Cote journalism credit like that... Now I'll have to hear about it! Thanks a bunch!
Just realized he's wearing almost the same shirt as Lebron is haha
French striker Antoine Griezmann tried to do this but it didnt really pan out too well
This move changed the league...after this players started taking more control of their careers.
Eh, players have been forcing trades since at least Wilt Chamberlain. And big free agency moves go back to Shaq.
@@bigbuffguy9589 You are right....Kobe didn't want to play in Charlotte either. I remember
