Cleveland Cavaliers vs. Boston Celtics
Date: May 18, 2008
Moment: Game 7
Stat Line: 45 points, 5 rebounds, 6 assists
Model: Nike LeBron Soldier II PE
This notion of LeBron “not showing up during clutch moments” is rather convoluted and comical as the chronological look at his career shows an entirely different narrative as his most important Game 7 of his career up until that point witnessed LeBron arrive. Going head-to-head against eventual NBA Finals MVP, Paul Pierce, in a game for the ages, LeBron would match Pierce’s 41 points with 45 of his own, though the Cavaliers would ultimately fall short to the eventual NBA champions.
Garnering further respect from his peers throughout the league, LeBron would take the parque floor in a PE model of the Nike LeBron Soldier II.
