Heat Vs. Celtics, Game 2: LeBron James, Dwyane Wade Pull Away At Home

LeBron James has had games like that before, but not for the Miami Heat. Or at least, not in the playoffs for the Miami Heat. And his 35 points in Game 2 on Tuesday night left the Boston Celtics looking hopeless. And old.

Maybe it’ll be a tipping point for what he does for the rest of the series, or maybe it’ll be like that Game 3 last year where LeBron had 38, 8, and 7, then disappeared the rest of the series. Either way, he had 24 points in the second half Tuesday, and for the first time all playoffs, we saw the guy that’s capable of changing everything all by himself. It was like someone flipped a switch at halftime, he hit a couple jumpers, and after that, the Celtics didn’t have a prayer.
