James ranked sixth in career postseason points (5,020), 15th in rebounds (1,558), fourth in assists (1,188), sixth in steals (305), and seventh in minutes (7,561) heading into Game 1 of the best-of-seven series.
"The King" has been a playoff staple in all but the first two years of his 13-year career. He has two championships and two Finals MVP's (all with the Miami Heat), which are well off Jordan's marks (six and six, respectively).
