not because LeBron played like MJ (he didn't), but because that's how emotionally invested I used to be
I hate being a bandwagon guy but I am truly rooting for LeBron to make that next leap and I have now realized he'll never be MJ...he just can't be. No one can be. No one will ever again get the ball in their hands with the game on the line and everyone in the world will know the outcome like they did back in the MJ days.

I fully agree with all of this. Whenever you saw MJ put up a shot in the 4th, it was uncanny how good he was that you were absolutely sure he would never miss. That being said, regardless of missed shots, this is the type of LeBron he has to be every single game in the playoffs. And I'm not sure why he's played so passively in the 4th until now. You wish he had a little more urgency when the series wasn't in jeopardy.
Enough about LeBron the distributor. Game 6 made it clear. Even when LeBron starts missing 4th quarter shots, the Heat feel a LOT scarier when he's attacking.
