How do you sum up LeBron James willing his Los Angeles Lakers to a Game 4 playoff overtime victory over the tough Memphis Grizzlies, along with a 3-1 first-round series lead?
It’s hard to find the words after James became the oldest NBA player to notch a 20-20 game after he scored 22 points and grabbed 20 rebounds in the 117-111 victory in Los Angeles.
But his teammate D’Angelo Russell knew what to do. He tweeted “No words,” but the photo he sent out was worth a thousand of them. It was the “LeBron James Kid” meme, from the now-famous Vine of a boy saying “LeBron James, LeBron James” over and over.
