LeBron James is 9-0 this postseason while averaging more than 35 points per game. That would be a very good stretch that would probably win you Player of the Month during the regular season, but this is the playoffs, and somehow James is playing even better than the MVP candidate he was during the initial 82 games.

Like ... basically my only reaction is this tweet.
James hasn’t lost and he hasn’t shot under 50 percent from the field yet. His worst game is either a 25-point outing that included 10 rebounds, seven assists, four blocks and four steals, or a 35-point showing that still had nine rebounds and six assists.
There’s a probably a limit to how much we can sing this man’s praises, and I get that, but he’s also the greatest player of our generation and it feels like he’s somehow getting even better. If you can’t appreciate what James is doing right now, then I don’t know what to tell you. I am blown away.
