Watch: NBA recaps LeBron's spectacular playoff journey

Bob Donnan / USA TODAY Sports

LeBron James had one hell of a playoff run.

The NBA posted a video montage Monday that follows the superstar and his Cleveland Cavaliers on their championship quest this past postseason.

It takes us back to Cleveland's sweeps of the Detroit Pistons and Atlanta Hawks, and the team's first taste of adversity, when it dropped Games 3 and 4 in the Eastern Conference finals to the Toronto Raptors.

We get to be a fly on the wall for some of head coach Tyronn Lue's motivational huddles, and the Cavs' locker room celebration after they punched their ticket to The Finals.

Finally, it takes us through the Finals rematch with the Golden State Warriors, who built a 3-1 series lead before the Cavaliers overtook them in seven games to win it all.

The highlights, soundbites, and cameos from the likes of Craig Sager and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar are a nice reminder of how King James ended Cleveland's 52-year title drought with his third championship.
