This continued through the season plus the level of offense we've seen from him would place this season where on your evaluation scale?

Really disappointed that noone on the Cavs is playing at the same energy level and effort as Lebron is. Pretty telling...

If I'm conservative on both ends, probably like low-mid 7s, slightly lower than 09/10. There's a consistency that isn't quite there yet offensively, there's never really enough things clicking at one time. Tonight's an exception to that, if he plays like this every night then that's obviously quite a bit higher.

LeBron needs to go God-mode in this game for Cleveland to have a chance, everyone else is so useless.

If they can keep this close we might see 50 tonight.

Lebron cant defend everyone...geez. Hes playing an amazing game and noone is matching his intensity level. Are they tired from trying to comeback in the OKC loss last night? Man...

doesnt' matter if you don't play defense.

If anyone's watching this game, this is reminiscent of last year's Finals.

Well whoever Lebron guards, they get slowed down and someone else heats up. Lebron gets put on that person, and then his last assignment starts heating up again. Tyreke is just abusing the Cavs backcourt. No rotations, just frustrating to watch, especially if it results in a loss.

Tyreke usually misses all these shots because mostly every other NBA team actually has rim protection but here he's just alone under the basket.

This game is over, just leave LeBron on the bench, no reason to play him...

Also, I don't get what the deal with Delladedova is? He doesn't seem like a guy that should be getting minutes in this league. He's actually a worse version of Norris Cole.

He's a lot better than cole on both ends

High energy role player with good man defense (obviously not the case today) that is hit and miss on offense.

Good man defense? He's getting destroyed by whoever he's guarding out there. I'd rather see Will Cherry at this point.

And his offense isn't hit or miss. He either hits one, two threes or he doesn't do anything. That's literary his game. Hit or miss on offense is someone like Waitress, he either scores 20 points or he shoots you out of the game.
