The Los Angeles Lakers have won five games in a row, largely due to the incredible play of LeBron James.
During the current streak that started with a last-second victory against the Boston Celtics, James is averaging 26.0 points, 8.6 rebounds and 9.8 assists while routinely hitting clutch shots to help lift L.A. over their opponents.
However, there are some reasons for concern despite the successful stretch. Three of the five wins have come against sub-.500 teams, with each of those decided by eight or fewer points. L.A. needed double overtime against the Detroit Pistons, and an extra period against to defeat the shorthanded Oklahoma City Thunder.
