You're with Su Xi, and you're going to take this kind of crap? You're going to let James push you around?
…
This series became a signature performance in LeBron James's career. The "Chosen One" had finally produced results befitting his title.
After being overshadowed by Su Xi for two years, it was as if a manhole cover had been slightly lifted, allowing him to poke his head out and get a glimpse of the world of superstars.
"As the core player who led his team to a seventh-seed miracle in his first-ever playoffs, I'm under a lot of pressure."
This was how LeBron James opened his post-game press conference.
It was clear just how thrilled he was, how desperate he was to show off.
He finally had something to brag about.
"Especially since this team was the two-time defending champion."
LeBron James continued.
The media was already blowing him up. Breaking his career playoff scoring record in that game was truly an MVP-caliber performance.
