Los Angeles Lakers: 4 Lessons from the win over the Miami Heat
By Ronald Agers
LeBron James almost outscored the Heat in the 4th quarter. He’s good Los Angeles Lakers fans, he’s good
Another game, another accomplishment for LeBron James. Lake Show Life might have to add a lesson just for his records because he seems to make or break one with each game lately.
His triple-double streak ended at three, but it really doesn’t seem to matter at this point. He just does something else. James scored 25 points against the Heat. So? Well, it made LeBron the third player in NBA history to have at least 1,000 games with 20 more points joining Karl Malone and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
This was an interesting game for LeBron, considering that he wasn’t looking for his shot early, trying to get everyone involved. Then well the second half started.
Meyers Leonard basically spent the rest of the night on the bench after this. Well, we can all assume that there is a weight room somewhere in the Staples Center. Somebody had to tell Leonard after this.

LeBron basically moved Leonard halfway to the locker room and dunked on the Miami Heat franchise. After that, LeBron got in a groove and took the Heat defense apart along with Anthony Davis.
Last year, Lake Show Life was critical of LeBron James and his inability of closing out games. It’s early but after the Chicago Bulls victory and this game, LeBron is making the big shots to take teams out.
LeBron James dropped two straight 3-point shots in a row to kill any Heat hopes of winning including this one.

James scored 12 of his 25 points in the 4th quarter. The chemistry experiment between AD and the King is almost complete. LeBron is starting to figure out where to pick his spots and knows when to use AD’s talents when the team needs it.
