Lebron James Awarded Player of the Month

Lebron James and Kobe Bryant were named Eastern and Western Conference Player of the Month, respectively, for games played in the month of February. 

In 14 games of play, James averaged 30.2 points, 8.9 rebounds, 8.5 assists (leading all Eastern Conference players), and posted nine double-doubles.  He also won the award in the month of January, averaging 32.8 points, 9.2 rebounds, and 6.4 assists.

Over a 3 game span from Feb. 19-22, James pulled in at least 25 points, 13 rebounds, and eight assists in each game.  He joined Wilt Chamberlain and Oscar Robertson as the only three players to ever reach those levels in all three categories in three consecutive games.

And if that were not enough, on February 27th, James scored 26 points against Boston and became the youngest player in the history of the game to reach 10,000 points.

What an amazing talent we have before us.  Cavs fan or not, you should be enjoying this piece of history that is being carved out right in front of your very eyes.
