On this date in 2007, LeBron James put on one of the greatest playoff performances ever.
He scored the Cavaliers' final 25 points in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals, carrying Cleveland to a 109-107 double-overtime win over Detroit.
His 25 straight points remain the most consecutive points scored by a player in a playoff game in the play-by-play era (since 1997) 🔥
I wholeheartedly believe the NBA community took LeBron James going to 8 straight Finals for granted. It takes a monumental effort to get there. The fact that it became routine is mind boggling. To this day he’s the most underrated competitor that’s ever played.
Here’s LeBron (same age as Wemby) scoring 29 of the Cavs final 30 points, including the game winner to close out a double overtime game on the road in the ECF 2007.

I need to throw AAU tournament with no shoe sponsors. I want top players matching up against each other.
The fact that the best players don’t play against each other cause of the shoe companies in the summer is Trash.
