Once viewed as a 21st century Magic Johnson, James is defying one-dimensional comparisons. He is passing like Magic, soaring like Michael Jordan and pounding defenses like a power forward.
"Last night, you see LeBron dominating the paint like Barkley and Malone," Mullin said, referring to Charles Barkley and Karl Malone. "But then you see him in the post, when the double team comes, he's throwing out of it like Magic or Bird. Nice, simple play. Then you see him scoring like Michael, so you get that crazy package in one guy."
James has scored at least 25 points in all but two playoff games, joining Jordan (1992) and Olajuwon (1995) as the only players to hit that mark in at least 20 games in a single postseason.
