Sometimes a legacy is defined by a few select moments.
Sometimes they take a player to glory, other times they cement him as mediocre...or worse.
Tonight was the stuff that legends are made of.

Lebron James please enjoy your new place amongst the true superstars of the league.
Games like tonight, along with games 3 and 4 in this series, are how you shake the "soft" stigma that guys like me throw at you.
Scoring 48 on the road in a massive Game 5 helps.
Scoring your teams last million points(25)...or just 29 out of 30...helps.
Scoring 25 straight helps.
Hitting huge buckets at every turn including end of regulation, overtime and the game winner...helps.
Please accept my humble apologies son, you have arrived.Tonight was better than great. It was Jordanesque.
This is the type of game you have to become a true superstar where guys like me never question you.
After Games 1 & 2 I rode Lebron...hard. HE had failed his team by either passing up the big shots or simply not making them.
All Lebron did was simply go out and dominate the next three games including tonights legendary performance.
Tonight was one of the great individual performances I have ever seen. PERIOD.
I can only offer my apologies and congratulations.
I will add this though...I was right about one thing. He needed to be
aggressive. He needed to impose his will. He needed to be Lebron James.
You now see why I demanded it. god damn what did we just witness?
Greatness.
