LeBron James Says You Shouldn’t Doubt Him
LeBron James did it to the Raptors again, because this is what he does.
James went 3-of-6 from the field in the final five minutes, getting seven of the Cavaliers’ last nine points.
This hustle effort by James in the final minute said everything.
The Cavaliers outscored the Raptors, 23-18, in the fourth quarter, but couldn’t get the win in regulation despite put-back after put-back effort in the final seconds.
But James got them into overtime, which is all the Cavaliers needed.
Tristian Thompson was in the right place at the right time to clean up after James, scoring what would be the game-winning basket for the Cavaliers with just over two minutes to go in overtime: His 26 rebounds, 11 rebounds, and 13 assists fresh off of a Game 7 help further cement the reasons why you should never, ever doubt him.
The Pacers threw everything they had at James last week, and it was an incredibly entertaining series because of that.
And as much of a great story as the Pacers were, LeBron James was still LeBron James.
