Dan Dickau slowed down to a crawl in the second half, no more to report on him. Lebron took over the third quarter as well as the Cavs. Lebron scored and passed at will seemingly. One announcer likened him to Magic Johnson early in his career. The similarity is fitting to some degree as Lebron is struggling with his shot from the outside, but get him with the ball in the open court or in the lane and it's an assist or score almost every time. The only way I saw them control him was in the first quarter playing zone. He seems confused and unable to penatrate a zone defense right now. You want to keep Lebron in a half court slow game. Saying this, he did play some smaller looking guards, so it would be interesting to see him play against some top tier NBA defensive guards. This was a pretty good game for Lebron. :thumbup:

You sure he isn't the second coming of Jason Kidd, rather than Magic?
