Scored the least of the starters (14 pts) but there was something about the timeliness of Rui’s scoring.
No FTs just buckets. Jumper after jumper.
Rui remains one of the best insurance policies & playoff shooters in basketball.
Last night, LeBron dropped 19-8-13 in a playoff game in which he shared the court with his son and the guy who broke his high school scoring record 12 years after him. I don't think any of us will ever truly be able to process what he is doing at his age.
I don’t want to hear anymore…
“Can LeBron James still…”
The new question is…
“How long does LeBron James want to…”
He’s earned that.
He’s THAT unfathomably great.
Luke Kennard praised the ENTIRE team in his postgame interview 🔥
“If you know Marcus he’s obviously a winner. Bron hit some big shots for us. Rui, DA on the defensive end especially. It’s going to take everybody.”
Adam Silver on LeBron James returning to the 2026-27 season.
“I want Bron to play as long as he absolutely wants to play. It’s not just a 41 year old player in the league, but he’s still playing at an incredibly high level
I have every indication he plans on playing next year.”
Not even sure how to describe it but watching Playoff LeBron in person is something else.
There's a level of locked in with total control of every possession on the court that's another tier from the regular season.
