The 10 very best games played by Playoff LeBron

#8 Hawks vs Cavaliers, May 24, 2015 (Eastern Conference Finals, Game 3)

Atlanta Hawks v Cleveland Cavaliers - Game Three

Statline: 37 points, 18 rebounds, 13 assists, three steals

Despite missing Mike Miller, Kendrick Perkins, Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love, the Cavs ran out to a 2-0 lead against the No.1 seeded Hawks with the opportunity to close the deal on their two-game homestand.

James was in a maniacal mode this game, despite suffering from back issues for the entire postseason.

He took 37 shots to focus all of the defensive pressure on himself, and the Hawks sorely missed their elite defender Thabo Sefolosha for the series.

Matthew Dellavedova, JR Smith, James Jones and Iman Shumpert benefited immensely from this as they combined to convert 13 three-pointers. James had again taken a bunch of average players to the doorstep of the NBA finals.
