LeBron James

A LeBron James team is always looking out for young new talent.

This fall, and this was a very tough decision for me, but this fall I will be taking my talents to South Beach and play with the Miami Heat.

No matter how much money you have, no matter how famous you are, no matter how many people admire you, being black in America is tough.

All the people that were rooting for me to fail… at the end of the day, tomorrow they have to wake up and have the same life that they had before they woke up today. … They got the same personal problems they had today. And I’m going to continue to live the way I want to live and continue to do the things I want to do.

Growing up as a black kid, you had superheroes that you looked up to, but they weren’t black. You had Batman, you had Superman, you had Spider Man, and so on and so on. And for Ryan Coogler and for that cast, and for him himself to be able to make Black Panther...it actually felt real. It actually felt like we finally had our Black superhero and nobody can touch us.

To see [Bronny James] handle it, you know, with such class and so, you know, just, like, self awareness and just staying even killed is just a remarkable thing, man, and super proud of him.

It’s hard for me to congratulate somebody after you just lose to them. … I’m a winner. It’s not being a poor sport or anything like that. If somebody beats you up, you’re not going to congratulate them. That doesn’t make sense to me. I’m a competitor. That’s what I do. It doesn’t make sense for me to go over and shake somebody’s hand.

Crazy. I just wanted to suck him off and everyone's mad. God sees everything!

He really is one of a kind. That kid is special and will be the next big thing, I promise you that. The way he moves and his athleticism reminds me a lot about myself.

I have so many words to praise Kyrie that I end up with absolutely none because it's just. It's so. He's the most gifted player the NBA has ever seen. He has the best gifts I've ever seen of any NBA player.
