James makes winning look easy

LeBron James ran a few steps behind the play, knowing exactly what was coming. The lob from Norris Cole arrived, and James, the N.B.A.'s reigning most valuable player, rose for a catch and dunk.

James is making everything look easy. He scored 32 points, Dwyane Wade had 30 and the Miami Heat beat the Los Angeles Lakers, 107-97, on Sunday for their fifth straight win.

It was James's fifth straight game with at least 30 points, a franchise record. James, who was 12 of 18 from the field, also joined Adrian Dantley (1979) and Moses Malone (1982) as the only N.B.A. players to score at least 30 and shoot at least 60 percent in five straight outings, the team said. "Don't take it for granted," Heat Coach Erik Spoelstra said. "He's making greatness look easy."
