To this point of the season, a topic of conversation many in the Los Angeles Lakers fan base kept going back to was when they might see LeBron James really take over and dominate a game.
Wednesday night against the Portland Trail Blazers, they saw it. It was amazing, and it allowed Los Angeles to beat the Blazers 126-117 as James passed fellow Lakers legend Wilt Chamberlain for fifth all-time in NBA history in scoring.
In the third quarter alone, James totaled 16 points and 5 assists, but really started to take over as the second quarter was in its waning moments.
