At this point, what can’t LeBron do?

The King called game, again.

For the second time this postseason, the Cleveland Cavaliers found themselves tied at home late in the ballgame. Just like he did against Indiana, LeBron James cooly and calmly sunk a buzzer beater.

LeBron’s latest rendition of greatness came on the heels of a marvelous Game 2 performance.  James made the Raptors look silly throughout Game 2, hitting one fadeaway shot after another.

When was all said and done, James carved the Raptors up for 43 points and 14 assists. More impressively, James committed only three turnovers through the first two games. Nothing could top that, right?

With the Raptors down 0-2, LeBron and the Cavaliers knew they would get Toronto’s best shot. But James, who practically owns the Raptors at this point, was up for the challenge.

But, James was not alone. Once again receiving help from his teammates, especially Kevin Love.  After a slow start, Love has turned it on the last two games. His 21 point, 16 rebound performance was reminiscent of the old Kevin Love. If LeBron can get production out of his No. 2 option, it will give him even more confidence moving forward.

It is quite obvious that James is at his best when he receives help from those around him. While James’ passing ability and basketball IQ are off the charts, it is a big credit to his teammates for stepping up in this series and making shots.

James’ driving ability forces Toronto’s defense to clamp down on him, which is what LeBron is accustomed to. His selfless mindset to involve his teammates is what sets him apart from the pack.

Despite that willingness to pass the ball, James is no longer afraid of those big moments. The story back in the day was that LeBron would always come up short. Yet, James has a laundry list of playoff heroics his critics somehow manage to overlook. 

With the Raptors storming back throughout the fourth quarter, LeBron would have the answer.  James scored 16 of the Cavaliers 26 points, including the shot that sent fans home happy and left the Raptors in disbelief.

What LeBron is doing to Toronto this series alone, not to mention the last three postseasons is downright unfair. Serge Ibaka defends him, no match. OG Anunoby tried to guard James, no match. LeBron was toying with Toronto to the point where instead of driving to the hoop, he took a ridiculous, running fade shot at the horn.

At this point, Toronto may actually want to consider changing their name to “LeBronto.”

But while James is averaging 36/8/11 on 54 percent shooting, he is also getting it done defensively. Whether it is shutting down whichever Raptors player he guards, or effectively double-teaming to force a turnover, James’ defense has been solid.

To see LeBron give it his all in Year 15 is exciting for fans and inspiring for fellow teammates. So inspiring that it has forced his running mates to up their game.

Oh, and for those who still cling to the tired argument that LeBron is not clutch, please take a look at the graphic below.

What LeBron is doing this postseason is hard to comprehend fully. James is (literally) doing everything. Scoring, rebounding, passing, defending. You name it, he has done it in this postseason.

So far in 10 games, LeBron James accomplished the following. Two buzzer-beating game-winners, four 40-point games, and two triple-doubles. Not to mention he scored the first 16 points against Indiana in Game 2 last round.

How will we describe this to the next generation of NBA fans?

With one great game performance after another, James is breaking records and giving us all the more reason to call him the greatest of all time. At this point, the only winning argument against LeBron is the fact Jordan was 6-6 in the Finals.

But, if rings are the determining factor in this debate, Robert Horry would be ahead of Jordan.

Once LeBron gets done eliminating the Raptors from the playoffs (for a third straight year) he will be one step away from reaching his EIGHTH straight NBA Finals. But that is another story for another day.

This whole article boils downs to one simple question. At this point, what can’t LeBron James do?
