LeBron's fourth quarter the other night was basketball brilliance. Season on the line and he just takes over. Scores 17, assists on 15 more. That's what I love about him. He's about making the right play and knows it doesn't always mean him shooting. The only reason he doesn't average a triple double is because his teammates can't shoot that well. Watching him in this series, I don't think I've ever seen a player do more. Watching a guy averaging 40 a night, getting a 37-14-12 triple double in an elimination game, and single-handedly keeping his team alive is great stuff. And imagine, all of this is coming from a guy that would be an all-pro tight end in the NFL. I almost feel like it's blasphemy to say because I love Michael Jordan but there's no doubt in my mind that when James is done, he's the new standard.
