The video Knicks tried to lure LeBron with in 2010 has leaked

The video features quite the cast of celebrities from a Sopranos revival and a follow-up to the show’s finale to Donald Trump (yes, that Donald Trump).

At the start of the clip, James Gandolfini and Edie Falco, reprise their roles as Tony and Carmela Soprano in a scene shot in Gandolfini’s apartment, as crazy as that sounds.

The scene suggests both moved to New York under witness protection, hinting that Tony survived the series finale.

The couple thinks LeBron would find it fine to come to Manhattan and MSG in particular, and then the thing spins into madness as the likes of Trump (“The real winners of the world want to be in New York”), Rudy Giuliani, Robert De Niro, Alec Baldwin, Bill Bradley, Walt Frazier, Spike Lee, Earl Monroe, Reggie Jackson, and Mark Messier make cameos here and there.

As an aside, you can find the funniest post in Realgm history in this thread:

The video has segments. At the beginning of each of those, there's a part of the whole video the Knicks made.

*Sees Donald Trump, Rudy Giuliani, and Harvey Weinstein in the pitch video*.

Yeah, this video totally didn't age poorly or anything. :lol:

Yeah, this pitch sucked. I would have walked away from that meeting half-way through. What was even the thought process going into making that pitch? This isn't personalized, this says nothing on how Lebron would make them championship contenders, etc. Yeah this isn't it.

Can't imagine how you'd make a worse pitch to a millennial athlete than **** Rudy Ghouliani and Donald Trump, yikes. Did they recreate the scene where Trump motorboats Rudy in drag? :lol:

Only one of those actually did anything illegal. Trump and Giuliani did nothing. Not even close to comparable. But I know why you threw them in.

Trump was incredibly popular and was everywhere and friends with many rappers until around 2016. I wonder what happened then? Regardless, I knew when I saw their names the TDS would draw people away from talking about the video but instead focus on hating on a guy because of his political views. It never changes.

If it were me they were doing this for, I would cringe. It feels like someone who's trying to hard, personally. But at least you would know they made this cringy thing for you, I guess?

Not anything uncommon. Chicago did something similar, actually I think did more for Melo.......

The most embarassing was Chicago pitching TMac..... embarrassing cringe.

Yeah man, I can't believe people hate on Jeffrey Dahmer because of his eating habits, seems like they should focus their energy on more productive things.

So now Trump has been compared to a racist cannibal. Keep it coming! TDS is very real.

The video goes into it but Lebron hates Trump.

Yes it's quite obvious you don't get out from there much.

They actually show the video here, or is this just these guys talking about it for 50 minutes?
