This series was LeBron's playoff debut and man it was RIDICULOUS.

The Cavaliers won the series but three of their four wins were decided by only one point. The game went back and forth most of the time, but in the 4th quarter the Cavs ended up blowing up a 6-point lead in the final minute. So it went into overtime.

LeBron didn't make many shots in overtime but he did get to the free-throw line and made his FTs. With 4 seconds remaining in the game, the Cavs were down by 1 against the Washington Wizards. Bron got the ball on the sideline and drove to the hoop for the game-winning layup. Cavaliers won the game 121-120 and the Cavs got a commanding 3-2 lead in the best of seven series.

He finished with 45 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists.

For those who haven't seen Bron's playoff games earlier in his career, I definitely recommend watching this series.
