If LeBron played this hard the whole game then the Heat would not be sweating it now. The Spurs can't guard him when he forces the issue.

Exactly what I was thinking

There are times where he looks absolutely untouchable and it makes you wonder how he could ever be stopped when playing that way

What gets me is how often he is just standing there watching or backing away when he might could have gotten in and got a long rebound. Guess manned up against Parker on D is some of it but dang. There were at least 3 times he could have gotten an offensive board with any kinda effort.

That's scheme. He's the best defender, the Spurs typically like to grab the board and push it quickly up the court. Lebron can slow that up. The Heat have enough decent rebounders anyway. No need to risk a foul on James either.

It's a risk/reward thing.
