LeBron Scores 49 in Game 1

LeBron James had a heroic game on a losing effort scoring a playoff career high 49 points against the Orlando Magic.

Thanks to a long bomb from Rashard Lewis to give the Magic the edge in the closing seconds. With a second to go, Mo Williams had a chance to clinch the game off the jumpball tip. Orlando takes game 1 of the best of 7 Eastern Conference Finals series in the NBA.

James, who was impressive all throughout the game, was 20 of 30 from the field to go along with 8 assists and 6 rebounds.

The bench played a major role for the Magic while the Cav's reserves, well... 5 points in total courtesy of Joe Smith and ZERO in the crucial second half.

Game 2 is on Friday (Saturday, 8:30 am Manila time). Mo Williams and Delonte West have to step up as what they have done all season long. In the post season, these two important players delivered very little in terms of consistency.

Go Cavs!
