I played football for a team called the East Dragons on the east side of town. We only had six regular season games. And six games I played tail back and I had 18 touchdowns in six games. That's when I knew I had some athletic ability.

I'm a leader. I'm the leader of this team, and they look for me at any point in the game, and that's not just scoring-wise, I do other things.
LeBron James
But then I lock back in and I start thinking about how fun it is to compete during the playoffs and the first round, the second round, and Eastern Conference Finals. If I'm lucky enough to get here again, it will be fun to do it.

It all depends on how you want to define what an MVP is. I've been fortunate to win the trophy four times, but I've been the MVP of my team for a long time - just because of the way I lead and the way I approach us being professionals off the floor.
LeBron James

LeBron James
I feel confident because I'm the best player in the world. It's that simple.
LeBron James
You know, my family and friends have never been yes-men: 'Yes, you're doing the right thing, you're always right.' No, they tell me when I'm wrong, and that's why I've been able to stay who I am and stay humble.
LeBron James
Why should I care? I have all the money in the world.
LeBron James
I do have motivation. A lot of motivation.
LeBron James

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
This is a proud moment for our city. This is the first time we have won a Finals game in this city, and I'm happy to be part of the history.
LeBron James
But put my body through a lot, you know, but it's the price for your body feeling this way for winning. Did I win? I didn't win a championship, but I've done a lot of good things in this first year back, and hopefully I can continue it.
LeBron James
I didn't think we'd get to this point that we're at now, but I was ready to lead If we got to this point.
LeBron James
Every night on the court I give my all, and if I'm not giving 100 percent, I criticize myself.
