2. LeBron keeps passing up Michael Jordan in the record book.

Another day, another broken record. It seems like James hasn’t played a postseason game where he doesn’t tie or break an NBA record.

In Game 2 James passed up Jordan in all-time postseason steals. He’s now second all-time behind Scottie Pippen.

We spend most of our time talking about James’s offensive ability. However, that shouldn’t overshadow just how well he has played defensively. LeBron finished the Game 2 with 4 steals and 2 blocks including another one of his patented chase-down blocks.

James continues to amaze us night in and night out. Game 2 was just another reminder that LeBron is still one of the most gifted and versatile defenders in the league.
