More quotes by LeBron James
A lot of people were saying that I was a selfish person and a selfish player. You know, it got to me.
LeBron James
I have short goals - to get better every day, to help my teammates every day - but my only ultimate goal is to win an NBA championship. It's all that matters. I dream about it. I dream about it all the time, how it would look, how it would feel. It would be so amazing.
LeBron James
To be honest, the play that was drawn up, I scratched it. I just told coach, 'Give me the ball.' We're either going to go to overtime or I'm going to win it for us. It was that simple.
LeBron James
I do have motivation. A lot of motivation.
LeBron James
I always say, decisions I make, I live with them. There's always ways you can correct them or ways you can do them better. At the end of the day, I live with them.
LeBron James
My childhood was never great. We moved from place to place a lot. There were times when we had no definite place to stay. So, a basic level of security was not always there. Therefore, when you finally make it out, and you become who I am, you're humbled by the memories of those situations.
LeBron James
We were playing every game to win, we just happened to win 27 in a row. Our motto was to try and go out and win every game, but there's nothing really to talk about.
LeBron James
A lot of players know how to play the game, but they really don't know how to play the game, if you know what I mean. They can put the ball in the hoop, but I see things before they even happen. You know how a guy can make his team so much better? That's one thing I learned from watching Jordan.
LeBron James
In this fall - this is very tough - in this fall I'm going to take my talents to South Beach and join the Miami Heat.
LeBron James
You know, when I have a bad game, it continues to humble me and know that, you know, you still have work to do and you still have a lot of people to impress.
LeBron James
We want to win it all. The only reason we play this game is to win championships.
LeBron James
I've always been an unselfish guy, and that's the only way I know how to play on the court and I try to play to the maximum of my ability - not only for myself but for my team-mates.
LeBron James
I don't know any other other team that got to the finals without two all stars.
LeBron James
That's one of my biggest obstacles. I'm afraid of failure. I want to succeed so bad that I become afraid of failing.
LeBron James
I've sort of gotten into the habit of looking for the vulnerable guy, the guy who makes mistakes, the guy who can't figure things out all the time but keeps at it.
LeBron James
It would be easier if I didn't even make the playoffs, it would hurt less. But then I start thinking about how much fun it is.
LeBron James
The modern athlete is an individual corporation. I'm not quite sure it's very good for sport, or good for team work, or those different things that sport says it's about. This is about business.
LeBron James
My mom and I have always been there for each other. We had some tough times, but she was always there for me.
LeBron James
We have to continue at a high level and make them take tough shots.
LeBron James
I told myself if I ever made it to the level I want to be at, I'm gonna give back.
LeBron James
