00:00Basketball is a beautiful sport.
00:04It's more than a game.
00:05It has given me everything.
00:09The people, they expect a lot.
00:11There's a lot of pressure.
00:16And there's no greater feeling than being on the court.
00:19I love that.
00:20When you're talking about the NBA, there's 450 players from around the world.
00:24It's so competitive.
00:25Most of them are playing to survive.
00:27But some guys make it look easy.
00:31I'm Jason Tatum.
00:33Jimmy Butler.
00:34Domonte Sabonis.
00:35Anthony Edwards.
00:36LeBron James.
00:37It's going to be an exciting season to watch.
00:39Woo!
00:40We got three like that all day.
00:41It's an easy assist if you don't hit the ball.
00:43Keep your foot on the gas.
00:44To the left, to the left.
00:49He has the talent.
00:51But for some reason, there's not a championship that's coincided with that.
00:55Can he deliver in the clutch?
00:57I would cut off one of my fingers to win a championship.
00:59Jimmy Butler is a machine!
01:02You and Jimmy Buck is for nothing.
01:03One of the top personalities in the league.
01:05He has the bravado.
01:07He shows the silly side.
01:08I love it when people get to express themselves.
01:11Sabonis, catch and bite!
01:14He is the big man.
01:15He often gets forgotten about.
01:16Wow.
01:17He's 110% of everything he does.
01:21Being a leader lights a fire in me.
01:22Edwards, hold on!
01:23He's going to try to snatch your soul out of your body any time he dunks on you.
01:27But is he mature enough to lead his team?
01:30I don't think nobody can stop me.
01:34LeBron James!
01:36No other player in history has sustained the leap over a long period of time like a LeBron.
01:43I wanted to be the greatest of all time.
01:45We made history.
01:46But for how long?
01:47Because this season feels like a changing of the guard.
01:50I'm not tired.
01:51This next generation, you got big shoes to fill.
01:54I just want to get home and drink some wine.
01:57This season.
01:59The access is different from anything I've done.
02:01All the games, all the plane rides.
02:03Doing some I love every day.
02:05No one's ever seen me in an intimate space like this.
02:10It's a year-round job.
02:11We had our ups and downs.
02:13You're not with your family as much.
02:14You want to show Daddy your dino?
02:16Every day is a sacrifice.
02:18It's not always as sweet as everybody thinks that it is.
02:22You know, we almost lost our son in the summertime.
02:25Anthony Edwards out for personal reasons.
02:28Sometimes it's hard.
02:31You're not superhuman.
02:34But basketball has given me so much.
02:43Every year in the NBA, a hundred players get swapped out.
02:47You got to work for your spot.
02:48Everybody has something to say.
02:50It might be a game for you, but like, this is my life.
02:52Ow!
02:54The main goal never changes.
02:56Boom!
03:11Of course, of course.
03:12Good game all in all.
03:13Thumbs up.
03:14Thanks guys.
03:23First of all, one thing might connect.
03:25The most superb person with all due respect.
03:27Next to the duffel bag, the brown paper bag.
03:30The Nike shoe box while holding all this cash.
03:33The rock voice in the building at night.
03:35Oh, what a feeling, I'm feeling light.
03:38You don't even gotta bring your skateboard out.
03:40Kayla Bryan, does any part of you think this could be your last season?
03:43Last time we spoke to you, you mentioned that your basketball future was uncertain.
03:48You were potentially considering retirement.
03:51How quickly after that did you realize I have a lot of gas left in the tank?
04:15Four total.
04:16Catch a shoe.
04:17Shake.
04:18Drip.
04:19Catch a shoe.
04:20Oh, you're crazy.
04:22This is season prime time.
04:26Meaning season 21.
04:28Playing over two decades with the amount of minutes I've played, the amount of games I've played.
04:32It's my dedication to my work.
04:34I think it's a huge part of the reason why I'm still able to play at this level.
04:37Get up, girl.
04:39LeBron is going into his 21st season.
04:42You know how hard it is to be who LeBron has been for 20 years?
04:48We talk about the guys who have played this deep into their career.
04:52He is pushing the limits of what a player's prime is considered.
04:57AD, be up so he can't snake the dribble.
05:02When you're LeBron James, he truly knows how his body feels.
05:05I don't see any digress.
05:07I don't see anything that suggests that he needs to walk away.
05:18LeBron.
