Why LeBron Is The Only Player That Ever Made Doris Burke Get Choked Up During An On Camera Interview

There was so much in that moment, he had done so much for Cleveland and the city turned against him when he left, he had been cast a villain, he came back in spite of all that and then went up against the team with the best record and shooter in history and came back from, a never before done, 3-1 deficit in the NBA finals, to hand Cleveland their first champion in any sport in 50 years, after years of Cleveland experiencing so much heartache. It is as absolutely emotional to watch and yes an absolutely beautiful human moment historically.

[@mattfillmore4808]

@@NgigiEric Unexplainable is right. Almost sounds scripted

[@Brobocop2]

The city turned against him because he turned against the city. The Decision was a huge mistake, something even LeBron admits. You went on national TV to basically embarrass the team, the city, and the fans. Also, every team has stupid fans that lose their shit when a player leaves their team. Heck, there are videos out there of people burning jerseys of players that got traded or released.

[@Brobocop2]

@Versatile Wolf Funny how people who bring that up forget the year prior when Kyrie and Love were hurt. Can't have it both ways.

[@kthebarbarian8223]

@Versatile Wolf 🤦🏾‍♂️😂😂😂 Who wouldn't want to enjoy their city's win? They don't have to hate GS to love that the Cavs won. I'm hard pressed to find anyone who genuinely hates GS anywhere, and I live in the Bay (originally from Philly). I find that people just gravitate towards Steph and have no malice toward him, much like Tim Duncan before him. It was just a storybook ending, and most were happy for LBJ

Im not talking about her appearance im talking about the attitude and aura of older women who haven't aged with bitterness and regret. Im not talking about her physical attractiveness.

You can sense bitterness from most older women because they haven't lived the way they wanted or because they are stuck in time in some traumatic event that happened to them. This woman is not that and im pointing it out. She likes her career and is satisfied wither her experiences; she's comfortable in her aging body; she's not trying to be something that she is not; she is eloquent, and she is in touch with her emotions.
