  • In doing so, breaking a tie with Shack for the second most in a single postseason and Heat history.

  • The only player with Mawr in a single postseason.

  • LeBron James in 2012 en route to his first eh?

  • NBA championship.

  • Eso for more.

  • We bring in our NBA analyst today.

  • Oh Gu McKay The Heat are.

  • So if you love basketball, they're so great toe watch.

  • They play that team game at a bio.

  • It's such a huge part of that going all the way back to signature game saving block What he did again last night.

  • J just read you the stats.

  • How critical will he be in this matchup with the Lakers?

  • Bam, out of Bio will have his hands full with the Lakers bigs, but as we witnessed last night, he's willing to hold himself accountable and also hold it down in the paint verse Anybody.

  • Last night, he had 32 points, 14 rebounds, five assists.

  • While the double double is really cute and nice, it's the five assist that I love.

  • Bam is not just a finisher and a rebounder.

  • He's also an underrated creator.

  • He pushes the ball in transition.

  • He confined a cutting teammate, Jimmy Butler, late for the assist.

  • He's a willing screener so that he can get their countless shooters open.

  • Now when he unlocks their shooters by screening, he also unlocks their pick and roll game.

  • This all works hand in hand.

  • Of course, it will not be easy going up against 80 LeBron JaVale and Dwight, but this last Siri's shows that he is up for any challenge, and he is typical of the way they play.

  • You said he had five assists.

  • They have 30 assists as a team.

  • That's the way they get it done now.

  • Meanwhile, LeBron is the first player to reach the finals with five different head coaches.

  • Ah, that's never been done in the history of the N B A.

  • And one of them, of course, is the coach that the Lakers will be facing in Erik Spoelstra, who knows LeBron as well as anyone.

  • Shenay.

  • So how do you see King James attacking that zone?

  • Defense of the heat?

  • Well, the best way to break a zone defense where they're really packing the paint is to shoot the ball, shoot them out of it.

  • LeBron James and company will have to do that.

  • This has been one of the biggest narratives for the Lakers this season.

  • Is there shooting good enough?

  • Will their shooters show up?

  • We know a D will anchor the paint, so LeBron will have to anchor the perimeter.

  • You'll have to knock down shots because the heat are on a roll.

  • The heat are hot.

  • What they do, they're making their opponents prove that they can hit shots before they guard them.

  • Now both the Lakers and the Heat have played 15 games in the postseason, but the Heat have made almost 30 more threes than the Lakers making shots in this Siri's matter.

  • And we all know when it comes to that, everyone will be watching LeBron James.

  • I mean, in the regular season, you know, for whatever it's worth, the Lakers won both of their meetings against the Heat.

  • Who's gonna emerges that number three, like Rondo did in the last Siri's?

  • We shall see.

  • Thanks for watching ESPN on YouTube for live streaming sports and premium content.
