LeBron James was turning heads on the court long before he was the MVP of the NBA. More Than A Game documents his storied years at Saint Vincent - St. Mary High School in Akron, Ohio. The film follows LeBron and his teammates - Romeo, Travis, Sian Cotton, Willie McGee, and Dru Joyce III, on the road to the national championship.

The More Than A Game Tour takes LeBron and the guys on the road again, this time to promote the film to fans all around the world. From Los Angeles to Taipei, they'll screen the documentary to audiences and chronicle the entire journey through tweets, video, and images on Nikebasketball.com.

For me basketball is a movement. Its my mojo. Its my get right. Playing bball with heart is when u don't complain, u just do it. U always play 2 win and u get in where u fit in. Sacrifice for the W. LeBron is the future. I know that anything is possible when I see LeBron play. He is a remixed version of Moses Malone, Magic, Dr. J, Jordan, and KG plus swag times 10.

Basketball is more than a game to me because i have a love and passion for the game more than anybody else i know. Its something that comes to me . Playing basketball with heart is playing even if your losing and you never give up and play your best throughout the game. Its having the passion, love , and respect for the game and you can't be true to the game of basketball without it. LeBron means greatness to bball, he makes the game great and that's why were all witnesses.

Basketball is my life. I have played it ever since I was 6. I go for the win no matter what the odds or whos in my way. I don't play for my school team, but I work hard so I can next time. I know Lebron is the greatest player in the world, and I know that he will always come on top. I eat, sleep, and breathe basketball. That's the greatest part of life. LONG LIVE KING JAMES!!!!!!!!
