KOBE. LEBRON. WEMBY.
Victor Wembanyama joins Kobe Bryant in 2001 and LeBron James in 2007 as the only players this century to lead their team in scoring entering the Finals at 22 or younger 🤯
Rashad McCants compares LeBron James’ career to the Fast & Furious franchise
“I’m just waiting for this s— to be over with.
This like ‘Fast and the Furious.’ It’s like god damn, we got another one?”

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) 🔥
@madd___slander The problem is when Nick Wright or Shannon sharpe speak good about LeBron, it has to be LeBron sent. But when Skip, Stephen A and pretty much the rest of media speak good about mj, it’s just the right thing to do and mj didn’t send them lol. Y’all are wired.
Gilbert Arenas explains trying to scout for young LeBron in their playoff battles:
“It makes no sense when people say he’s not a scorer…. We had to scout. We played them in the playoffs 3 times. We’re sitting there looking ‘alright what’re we gonna do? We’re going to cut off all of his passing. Let him score 50.’ He scores 50 and still has the same assist. ‘Ok, let’s just make him a passer.’ He had 14 assists, and still 30 points! It’s like what are we dealing with here?”
