Video: Kid Screams ‘Good Job, Good Effort’ at the Miami Heat

Solid sportsmanship.



While the rest of the Miami Heat faithful stood still in stunned disbelief after their team blew Game 5 at home last night, a single, childish and lonely voice attempted to provide them with comfort and encouragement through the devastation.

    Pretty much what LeBron and Spo said after the game.

  • James aka…

    “Good Hustle”

    “Yo man I’m not on your team!”

  • MikeC.

    That kid was awesome. Maybe the Celtics can get Bill Simmons to say the same thing to the Heat after the Celtics win Game 6.

  • Bmack

    God that kid has the most annoying voice, I hate the Heat, but when I heard that kid I would not have been mad had lebron lept up and jacked him right in the grill. It would be awesome If Lebron attended that kids sporting events for the next few years and after every loss followed that kid into the parking lot saying “AT LEAST IT WAS GOOD HUSTLE!”

  • Top$helf

    Lebron wanted to tell him stfu

  • logues

    haha when i heard this live i started laughing… sounds like the “everyone is a winner” type of kid

    I love that you can quite clearly hear him just as the commentators are saying “and the crowd has gone silent…”

  • ALD

    why spo take his phone clip off like he was batman lmao

  • http://cnbc.com JTaylor21

    The Heat hear the same sh*t from their “coach” all the time.

  • robb

    The Heat will win the next two

  • capostat

    LMAO @ALD

  • RunNGun

    sarcasm at its best….

  • Lloyd

    @Bmack, I’m pretty sure every kid would love it if any NBA superstar came to every one of your games and encouraged you. That said, that kid was annoying. When I lose, the last thing I want to hear is positive crap like that. Losing sucks. Let me wallow in self pity for a bit, then you can yell some motivational, cotton candy bullcrap at me.

    Lol, at least he ain’t screaming out discouraging words.

  • Da-Meat-Hook

    That kid is awesome.

  • Nick

    Are you sure that kid wasn’t being sarcastic?

  • http://girlsinyogapants.com/ D

    what effort?

  • http://slamonline.com LakeShow

    I’m already preparing merchandise.

    The Chosen One
    Good Job
    Good Effort

  • Da-Meat-Hook

    Hey Lakeshow, how bout them Lakers? Oops I forgot they’re on vacation!

  • barnabusb

    It’s better than swearing and being a douche. Good on ya, kid.

  • bike

    …because in the grand scheme of things, it’s only a game.

  • HAMMER

    No sarcasm, in my opinion. Kid is a Heat fan. He just wanted to provide some encouraging words.
    Gotta love him for that. Props, kid.

  • ClydeSays

    You are all Witnesses… to a Good Job, Good Effort. Doesn’t really work, does it?

  • http://www.nba.com Shadojoker

    Lmao at James..when they went into the lockerroom to eat..I bet the kid would have them served pancakes!!

  • james meyer

    The Good Job Kid’s name is Jack Meyer and he meant every word from the heart. He is a true fan.

  • Mas

    hahahahahaha, good job. good effort. hahahahahahha.

  • Fat Lever

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH @ Shadojoker.

  • Phil da Windmill

    Damn Lebron even kids pick on you guys smh.

  • Jason

    I like it. Those guys are his heroes whether they win or lose.

  • JHM

    ALTHOUGH THE HEAT LOST I CAN’T FAULT A YOUNG KID FOR SUPPORTING HIS TEAM.. IT’S THE SIGN OF A TRUE FAN, A TRUE SPORTSMAN OR SPORTSKID :P , AND TO ME IT SOUNDS LIKE THIS` IS A KID WITH A GOOD HEAD ON HIS SHOULDERS. I COMMEND HIS PARENTS FOR THE VALUES THEY TAUGHT HIM. LOYALTY, BELIEVING, AND NEVER GIVE UP ATTITUDE! IF MORE KIDS AND ADULTS HAD THAT POSITIVE AN ATTITUDE, SOCIETY WOULDNT BE NEARLY HALF A DYSFUNCTIONAL AS IT IS… ALTHOUGH IT WOULD HAVE BEEN MUCH MORE MEANINGFUL AND SEEMED TO MAKE MORE SENSE IF THE TEAM HAD REALLY PUT UP THE NUMBERS , AND DOMINATED THE GAME THE WAY THEY COULD HAVE, I COMMEND JACK MEYER AND DAD JAMES AS THEY POSTED ABOVE FOR SHOWING WHAT BEING A TRUE FAN IS! GOOD JOB DAD! AND FOR THE REST OF THE HATERS! THERES 2 GAMES LEFT, AND WE ARENT ANYWHERE NEAR DONE! TOMMOROW NIGHT THE CHESS MATCH BEGINS!

  • JHM

    @ LLOYD IF YOU GET PAID MILLIONS TO WIN AND SOMEONE WHO JUST DROPPED A TON OF HARD EARNED $$$ IN THIS ECONOMY COME S TO WATCH YOU PLAY, YOU TAKE THE ENTHUSIASM AND SUPPORT GRACEFULLY AND DONT BASH THEM.. HE PAID HIS MONEY YOU DEAL WITH THE SUPPORT OR CRITICISM… THE FINS NEED FANS LIKE THIS KID! SUPPORT THE HOME TEAM UNCONDITIONALLY!!!!
    @ JASON I AGREE THIS KID SEES THEM AS ROLE MODELS AND SPORTS HEROES LEVE THE KID ALONE AND LET HIM SUPPORT HIS HEROES…

  • http://slamonline.com LakeShow

    JMH… We can hear you bruv. We can hear you…

  • MikeC.

    @Lake – I’m in for a crisp white T with “Good Job, Good Effort” printed on the front. I’ll wear it whenever I know I’m going to fail at something I should dominate.

  • http://slamonline.com LakeShow

    lulz

  • Heat over Boston

    COOL KID!!!

  • http://Somethingsomething. Ugh

    @Joey E – BAHHAHAHAHAHA. Awesome.

  • B-rad

    Are you guys serious? Everyone always says most Americans can’t detect sarcasm and you’re proving them right. He’s a little turd berating his home team for losing a game they should have won, you guys must be trolling when you say he’s supporting his team. That obnoxious tone of voice is no way sincere.

    lol the kid just punked em :D

  • trueballer4life

    ITS TIME TO SEPARATE THE BOYS FROM THE MEN! GO HEAT IN 7!

  • mask

    Thats just awesome. If the almost 40 year old KG killing the paint wasnt enough to demoralize the heat you got a kid chanting good effort when your team has more raw and younger talent. I hope u like the weather in miami b/c a ring is not happening this year. You strugglin with old men and u got the young thunder resting.

  • Mike From Spain

    ‘not 1, not 2, not 3…’ Good job! Good effort!

  • Seth

    THAT. JUST. HAPPENED.

  • Seth

    I love that there’s a shirt for this already. Imagine if the Garden laid one out on every seat for Game 6…

  • http://hoopsworld.com IamYOU

    Well after game 6 all I can say to boston is BAD JOB AND NO EFFORT! The King has made his move b*tches!!
