Every night there are some stupendous, silly, stupid, or downright outlandish individual lines from around the lig. Doing Lines lets you know which one tops the list.The game of the night in Cleveland lived up to the hype ... for one team. Boston watched LeBron James throw up one of the most complete games in recent regular season history: 38 points, seven rebounds, six assists, four steals and three blocks. Those usual weaknesses of LeBron, three-pointers and free throws? The Chosen One shot perfectly from the line (9-for-9) and above 40% (3-for-7) from deep. And all this came in a 15-point win over the champs. G.O.A.T.
Dwyane Wade had a lesser opponent (the 8-29 Kings), but did some major damage on the road in an overtime game: 41 points, seven assists, five boards, three steals and a block. And he basically carried the Heat single-handedly late in regulation and in overtime.
Telling stat: When you see that Marcin Gortat as the leading rebounder for Orlando, two emotions are available: distress (Dwight Howard must have been injured!) or glee (garbage time). It's the latter in this case: the Magic rolled the Hawks, and Gortat ended up with 12 rebounds in 20 minutes. Yeah, Poland! J.J. Redick scored 15, but no one really cares about that guy.

Lebron and Wade not only they lead their teams in scoring
but in assists as well;
So are Kobe, Paul,Roy and Harris from the Nets, that is really
top of the class in the game today.
