Top 5 Lebron Cleveland Highlights

In honor of Lebron's return to Cleveland on the eve of a 23 game win streak, I blog for the first time in centuries with my favorite 5 Lebron in a Cleveland uniform highlights. I may or may not have burned my orange Witness shirt when Lebron left, but all is forgiven at this point.  It's just a game and the possibility that we would get even a few more of these highlights in a Cavs' uniform next to Kyrie in the future would just be a bonus.

5. Lebron's Block on Yao Ming & Chase Down Blocks
Lebron had many great blocks followed by Austin Carr's patented "GET THAT WEAK STUFF OUTTA HERE" call, but I remember the Yao Ming one the best. Lebron's Jason Richardson spin dunk block was hilarious.

4. Lebron's Gamewinner Against 4 Wizards in Playoffs
The highlight starts at 1:45, but it was probably the first playoff game winner Lebron ever hit.  You get a bonus 9 highlights. Just ignore those Heat highlights.

3. No Regard for Human Life
It might have been the call by Marv Albert or the fact that Boston was the first big 3 team, but this dunk was memorable to say the least.

2. Game 2 Gamewinner vs Orlando 
I've never heard a roar so loud in my life. My family was in Las Vegas watching this game in the Bellagio sports book.  The atmosphere was a mix between the standard Lebron hater, the 7 Orlando fans surprised to see their team playing out of their mind and your loyal doom and gloom Cleveland fans that could see it happening again.  (It did eventually happen again)  I almost started a brawl in the sports book by skipping and jumping and screaming in everyone's face after this shot whether they were a Cleveland, Orlando, or casual fan.

1. Lebron Goes off in Game 5 of Eastern Conference Semis at Detroit
  Detroit was that first hurdle the Cavs and Lebron has to get over to get to the championship and it took a game like this for it to happen. The best part of this game was it was at Detroit.  The rivalry was bitter and Lebron answered every time the Cavs fell behind. We all thought this was the beginning, but it never quite happened as much as we expected.
