LeBron James just took back the lead for MVP from Anthony Davis!
To think the man was listed as questionable for this game with a sore elbow. LeBron James injured himself crashing into Jimmy Butler in the closing moments of the Miami game on Friday night. Whatever happened sure helped his 3-point shot.
While his teammates stunk up all of Peachtree with their 3-point shooting, LeBron knocked down four 3-pointers in 10 attempts. These shots weren’t from the “toeing the line” Christmas catalog either.

With a packed house with a bunch of “LeBron paraphernalia” floating around the arena, LeBron James put on a show with a stat line of 32 points, 13 rebounds, seven assists and three blocks. He shot 12-of-21 overall and the misses that he had were basically in and outs.
He was in a zone in the second quarter actually extending the lead before halftime. He dropped 17 points dropping bombs from deep and from slightly closer to the basket variety running the fast break.

A whole lot of business decisions were being made under the basket by various Hawks players as the L-Train was running through.
He did have some help making sure the Lakers train didn’t run off the rails.
