LeBron James is so good that he can now play at a lot less than 100 per cent and still be stunning. At 30, with so many miles on the clock, he needs to save his best for when it really matter - the playoffs - but even 90 per cent LeBron is better than almost anyone else's 100 per cent.
His new old team the Cleveland Cavaliers had some mighty struggles early on this season but now they have the number 2 seed in the East locked up and last night they mauled a team they may face in Round 1 of the play-offs, current 6 seeds the Milwaukee Bucks.
The Cavs won 108-90 and while LeBron led the way with 28 points, it was a score that didn't count that was the most impressive.
After the ref blew the game dead for an off the ball incident, LeBron, much closer to the halfway line than the three point line, just flicked the ball towards the basket and hit nothing but net.
Effortless class from the greatest player of his generation.
Roll on the playoffs...
