The Miami heat road LeBron James to a crucial road win over Brooklyn to take a commanding 3-1 series lead, and look to close out tonight at home. Many will look at LeBron's performance, and extended minutes, and figure him to be limited tonight on one day of rest, but hold on. Expect the opposite. LeBron's last 17 playoff games on one day of rest, following a game where he logged 42 minutes or more shows 30.9 points per game 9.4 rebounds per game, and 6.1 assists per game! Not only that, he has done it by shooting 50% from the field. If you think he lays down after a big game, it's just not true. LeBron has scored 40+ in a playoff game 10 times prior to game four, and his next game averages are 33.3 ppg 9.7 rpg, and 7.0 apg - all above his playoffs average. A motivated LeBron means a big Miami win at home and history backs the story. Miami rolls.
