LeBron Is Peerless, and Not Just in NBA

Filed under: Heat

OK. So LeBron James occasionally has flashed signs this season of having flesh and blood like the rest of us.

Just occasionally, though.

There was Sunday in Boston, for instance, where LeBron wasn't his clutch self down the stretch at the foul line. Plus, he was hounded into an average scoring game by the Celtics' Rajon Rondo.

Not only that, courtesy of an 85-82 loss, the Miami Heat continued to show that LeBron and the rest of their Big Two and a Half (Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh) remain a work in progress by losing for the seventh time in eight games against one of the NBA's top teams.

Still, nobody tops LeBron as the Most Valuable Player.

I'm talking about the NBA, of course. But I'm also talking about LeBron as the undisputed MVP among players throughout the four major sports leagues in North America. He still has to find a way to win it all, but that's a different column. As for this one, nobody is a more significant force for any team in any of those leagues than this defensive end of a basketball player who is transforming the Heat into a championship-caliber bunch for the first time in five years.
