Dominant performance from a 35 years old LeBron.


30/12/9 against a solid defensive team like the Heat. 59.1 FG%, 42 percent from 3 points range. Way better than Jordan's performance in the 1998 nba finals Greatest 35 years old in NBA History.

PLAYOFFS

88' McHale..... 25.9 ppg
88' Bird.......'.... 25.1 ppg

86' McHale..... 24.9 ppg
86' Bird........'... 25.1 ppg

20' AD............ 27.7 ppg
20' Lebron..... 27.6 ppg

11' Wade....... 24.5 ppg
11' Lebron..... 23.7 ppg

16 Kyrie......... 25.2 ppg
16' Lebron..... 26.2 ppg


Everyone in history needed an equal-scoring partner (1b) for most of their rings except the goat, who won 6 rings with a true 2nd option that averaged far less in every playoffs.

Teammate scoring matters because equal-scoring teammates attract equal defensive attention, so only MJ faced "1-man team" defensive attention for his entire career, (thus giving maximum integrity to his stats and rings).. Kenny Smith talks about MJ being the only 1-man show here (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=4UF6Xx3F2Lo&t=01m54s).

Accordingly, rings with 2nd options are greater than rings with 1b's and Jordan has 4 more rings with 2nd options than anyone else in history - that's his irrefutable goat argument.

And there's more clear-cut evidence - everyone that won 3 Finals needed a teammate to average 25 or win FMVP for at least 1 of the Finals - but Pippen peaked at 21 ppg and is 0/6 in FMVP, so only MJ could win with Pippen.

Ultimately, only MJ lacked the FMVP sidekicks, equal-scoring partners, and elite 1st option sidekicks that everyone else enjoyed - he was stuck with a true 2nd option like Pippen and inferior team defenses (bulls had the #7 defense during 1st three-peat, including inferior defenses in ECF/Finals)
