If you needed more affirmation that LeBron James is special, well, here you go.
After the Cavaliers’ blowout loss to the Celtics in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals on Sunday, James was asked about the start of the fourth quarter, when a decisive Boston run put the game out of reach. So, he told the reporter what happened. On every play. With near-perfect recall.
“The first possession, we ran them down all the way to two on the shot clock, Marcus Morris missed the jump shot, followed it up, they got a dunk,” James said. “We came back down, we ran a set for Jordan Crawford — I mean Jordan Clarkson — and he came off and missed it. They rebounded it. We came back on the defensive end and we got a stop. They took it out on the sideline. Jayson Tatum took the ball out, threw it to Marcus Smart in the short corner, he made a 3. We come back down, miss another shot and then Tatum came down, went 94 feet, did a Eurostep and made a right-hand layup. Timeout.”

James was practically spot-on in describing a minute-long stretch of basketball from memory, hours afterward. Normal people don’t do that.
Add a photographic memory to the list of absurdities under James’ name.
