LeBron vs. Kevin Durant in Miami. For the MVP?
By Jason McIntyre
Durant’s averages: 27.5 ppg, 8.2 rpg, 3.5 apg. He’s shooting 50 percent from the field and 37 percent from deep. That’s pretty incredible for a guy hoisting 19 shots per game.
LeBron’s numbers are down a bit from his dominant start to the year, but they’re still nothing to scoff at: 26.7 ppg, 8.1 rpg, 6.4 apg. He’s shooting 53 percent from the field and 35 percent from deep.
Miami’s a 2.5 point favorite. Wade may or may not play, but I’d ride with LeBron tonight regardless.
