The NBA playoffs have been wild. The Houston Rockets coming back from down 3-1 to beat the Los Angeles Clipper, Cleveland sweeping the top seeded Atlanta Hawks and the individual stat lines. While every series hasn’t been epic we have seen plenty of great games and endings but it’s the individual performances that need to be remembered. Teams win or loss as a team but with Stephen Curry dropping 40 points, LeBron James posting a triple-double these are the moments that we’ll point back to when discussing a players career. James Harden’s 45 point performance in game four for Houston wasn’t bad either. Enjoy the moment where we have three players doing magical things on the court with their teams. When you’re listening to sports talk radio in 15 years debating LeBron verses the next big thing in the game this stretch is what you’ll be referencing. Five straight finals appearances for LeBron, four in Miami and now he has Cleveland back into the NBA Finals. Don’t give me any Michael Jordan talk either right now. Jordan is the goat, but LeBron runs the basketball world right now. I’ll have my popcorn ready watching LeBron and the rising Cavs battling either Golden State and the NBA MVP Steph Curry or The Beard with his Rockets.
