LeBron and his counterpart, Paul Pierce, each put their respective team on their back, going back-and-forth attempting to singlehandedly will their team to victory.

The Cavs were looking to avenge their Finals sweep the year prior, and the Celtics were searching for their first Finals appearance since the days of Larry Bird. In a game for the ages, the two All-Stars went back and forth, scoring bucket after bucket, as both men eclipsed the 40-point mark.
