LeBron James’ new ad for Nike: “He carried the weight of every expectation on his shoulders. But he never broke. We were all witnesses. Every rival was defeated. Every idol was destroyed. He took the crown and kept it.”

1. Except Dirk Nowitzki

2. Couldn’t defeat Taco Tuesday

3. Except Jason Terry and J J Barea

4. Couldn’t defeat baldness, hence the crown to hide it.

5. They seriously couldn’t shell out for a nicer more custom made crown instead of the cheapest Spirit Halloween crown?

6. Don’t forget the Spurs, twice. Sure he got them once but 2-1 baby

7. 4-6 on finals yeah he beat those rivals alright

8. Bro, this is a horrible ad

9. That’s a miss, Nike. Crown him for incredible high-level endurance but don’t force the narrative that he’s won over all others.

10. Looks like the Burger King crown 🤣

11. Any man who must say, “I am the King”, is no true king.

12. What a load o crap

13. Cringe

14. When the mcs came …..

15. Curry’s record vs Lebron suggests every rival wasn’t defeated.

16. What in the corny cringe ad is this?

17. He never broke? Didn’t he run to different teams multiple times?

18. Needs to say “except one” at the end and then cut to 5 foot 11 JJ Barea

19. A ten year old girl talking about how we all witnessed something. Lol

20. So corny

21. Straight Downvote on this one. Forcing narratives ain’t it no more.

22. Every rival? Lol

23. 🥱 Yawn

24. Lebron has always been corny, so this is fitting for him.

25. Every rival was defeated? Sure…but he had losing Finals records against the Spurs and Warriors?

    Edit: Lost to Dirk + never played Kobe either to “take the crown”

26. The corniness is very on brand

27. Lmao

28. Bro lost 6 finals though

29. Bro lost more Finals than he won.

    If anything, his crown was taken and worn by more of his opponents than he did to them.

    Not sure how being 7-15 to GSW is in total finals is destroying Steph either

30. So tired of this King James BS…

31. Everyone was defeated, except those teams he lost to 6 times in the finals

32. Dear God..
    Just when the world looked like it can’t get more messed up..this atrocity shows up.

    DUSGUSTING

33. Do these people just pretend that 2021-today does not exist?

34. Dirk, Duncan, Curry, Kawhi, KD all had winning records in finals against Bron, who exactly did he destroyed? Jimmy G?

35. weird how they used the lone wolf and cub sample.

    it’s like they took it from liquid swords without knowing the original source and just asked AI to change the words.

36. Didn’t he break pretty badly in the 2008 playoffs? Am I remembering that right? Against Boston? So badly that he ran away to Miami? I think I remember that.

37. I had to watch the Kobe retirement commercial just to get the cringe off my spirit

38. Nobody is a bigger fan of LeBron James than LeBron James
