LeBron stays in it.

The Heat has been on a four game losing streak. With Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosh still out it was time for LeBron and the rest of the team to step it up. Well they did, and they beat the Toronto Raptors 120-103. LeBron knew that it would be a hard game with two of the three main players out but a short talk with Mike Miller and he emerged as a secondary star. LeBron talked to Miller before the game telling him that he had to step up tonight, and Miller did.  LeBron taking control and acting as a leader definitely changed the way the team played and had an effect on the game’s outcome.
Miller had an impressive 32 points, 10 rebounds, and 3 assists. This was very impressive for a player that has been on a team where the “Big Three” score about 90% of the points. LeBron also stepped up and added 38 points, 11 rebounds, and 6 assists. The combination of LeBron becoming the leader and Miller taking his advice is what made the Heat so lethal and able to come out with the win. The Heat is now 31-13 and are still 2nd in the Eastern Conference.

  2. That sounds like a great record. It's also nice to see other players stepping up.
