The 76ers were on a verge of a 5-game winning streak at the expense of the Miami Heat. LeBron James would have none of it. LeBron shifted to point guard--all six feet and 8 inches and 250 pounds of him--in the 4th quarter and it was all Miami from then on.

“When he’s out there and we’re all on the same page on what we’re running offensively,” Wade said, “it makes us a dynamic team.”

LeBron led a makeshift lineup that included Udonis Haslem and Mike Miller to a 15-0 spurt in the fourth quarter to turn a tight game for 36 minutes into a comfortable victory and hand the Sixers just their third home loss of the season.
