If you shoot the king you better slay the king.
That is King as in James.
And of course you need to also make sure when you have Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh down, you need to keep them down. The Bulls learned that the hard way.
Seemingly cruising to a Game 5 win, the Bulls watched Bosh, James and Wade score the Heat's final 33 points and go on an 18-3 run to pull out an 83-80 win.
This is what Bosh, James and Wade had dreamed up when they were huddling up in the off season.
The trio went 23-for-28 from the free throw line and didn't miss when they needed it most.
That meant killer 3s from Wade (who would get a four-point play) and James. Then it meant two free throws from Bosh to give his team a three-point lead and force the Bulls into needing a three just to get to overtime.
The NBA Finals is Dallas vs. Miami. But it also sets up Dirk vs. LeBron. Or Dirk vs. Dwyane. Three of the greatest clutch players in the playoffs will be meeting in the best of 7.
One will prove to be the most clutch. Who is your guess as to who that is?
