The second leading scorer on their roster was Kevin Love with 11.4 points on 33 % FG. The second leader in assists was George Hill with 2.0 assists per game. LeBron was great and at his best.

    2018 LeBron James is the greatest basketball player to ever touch a court. He was INCREDIBLE that season & the team around him was awful. I'm a Cavs fan and I would've rather we kept all the guys we started the season with, regardless of how we were performing 40 games in. I think we still could've gotten in and those guys had experience and were better built for the playoffs

      NO VERSION OF LEBRON IS THE BEST PLAYER OF ALL TIME. THERE IS ONLY ONE GOAT AND THAT IS MICHAEL JEFFERY JORDAN
      63 AGAINST BOSTON - I WAS THERE!
      THE LAST DANCE I WAS THERE!
      38.5 PPG IN '88 BACK WHEN BIG DADDY KANE WAS AINT HALF STEPPIN - I WAS THERE!
      THE NEAR TRIPLE DOUBLE SEASON WHEN HE RAN POINT AND AVERAGED 32 8 & 8 - I WAS THERE!
      THE NBA FINALS AGAINST PHOENIX WHERE HE AVERAGED 41 11 & 11 WITH 3 STEALS AND 2 BLOCKS - I WAS THERE!
      MICHAEL JEFFREY JORDAN HAS 13 FULL SEASONS DEFINITIVELY BETTER THAN LEMICKEY LAMES
      AND HE WAS EVEN BETTER THAN LEMICKEY WHEN HE WAS OUT OF SHAPE OUT OF RETIREMENT ON THE WIZARDS!
      WHERE YOU?
      THE ONLY THING YA'LL BRONS WERE THERE FOR WAS WHEN THE CHOSEN ONE BECAME THE FROZEN AND GOT LOCKED UP BY JJ BAREA
      WOULD MICHAEL JEFFERY JORDAN GET LOCKED UP BY JJ BAREA?
      WOULD HE LOSE TO DIRK WITH CHRIS BOSH AND D WADE ON HIS TEAM?
      NO! MICHAEL JEFFREY JORDAN WOULD GO 6-0 IN THE FINALS
      (8-0) IN THE "LEBRON" ERA
      THE BRON ERA IS REALLY STILL THE JORDAN ERA BECAUSE JORDAN HANGS OVER EVERYTHING LEBRONNNNNNNNS DOES
      I'VE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING QUITE LIKE IT!
