18 YEAR OLD LEBRON JAMES DROPS 52 POINTS

country team, gentlemen, but Westchester was ranked number seven and we've been talking about that in the last few days. This is a team that is not easily intimidated. They really believe they can win this game. Let's take a look at these headlines first for the fight. Irishman Corey Jones drew Joyce on the first line with three forwards with Lebron James, the very talented Romeo Travis and we will be talking about Travis throughout this game, a 6-6 senior, take a look at the starting lineup of Westchester defenseman Jonathan Oliver. and bobby brown up front scott cutley trevor ariza ucla tied to 6-9 senior ford and marcus johnson the sophomore listed at 6-6 again another turtle and here is ariza in the open floor and the emphatic two-handed material of trevor ariza and a quick four lead nothing for westchester now they give it to

lebron

james

turn and look just inside the yard and the first bucket tonight for

lebron

james

he wants to put on a show you see reece playing with him you have to go out and challenge to james, knocks down consecutive deep shots on the left wing and that's a three point field goal for lebron james, five quick

points

for him, a lazy brown pass trying to find cutley, james takes it, attacks and makes a magnificent triple. and finishes with the finger roll with his right hand here is james back to the basket about 20 feet away he dribbles through his legs pulls up on a triple ariza may have a piece but james gets in the line pass scores a steal second steal both teams look a little out of breath right now yeah the excitement they got caught up in got your adrenaline pumping and suddenly you start settling for having to play basketball and lebron james left open, McGee feeds James. the corner turns and faces cutley wants to give him a little shake and a bait back to the basket james tied falling and a reaching foul called against scott scott cutler how about this right here puts him in the hand able to recover?

What surprises me is that people treat him as if he were going to do it. He is the first and the last to do this. You know, you had Dr. J and Luau Cinder, Karima, Kobe Bryant. A lot of the guys, the amount of stardom there is in him. league now I think all the media along with his game has capitalized on everything he does and that's a great point, he's the next great player, he wasn't the first great player in high school and he won't be the last, he's just the guy. right now magnificent drive to the basket another great player on the court tonight trevor one reason he has enough time to finish at the rim another guy these forwards six nine forwards that can play inside now they are carbon police and it is possible that he don't have so many skills but the same body type, yes they look a lot just not as thick and strong as james and speaking of being strong, james just fights through his defender and knocks down the jumper, now he has 12

points

, dangerous pass, arisa trying to save it. he fights for it and travis james takes it one by one to the lane and a right finger spin ends wow and it ends like this it's a disappointment for everyone in the crowd james for two defenders walking away reckless shot by lebron full court pressure defense james in the back court until two seconds james has to shoot and breaks it how do you allow him to get the ball well as soon as he catches it?

Did you see him look up, find the watch? I knew exactly how much time was left and when that ball left his hands it was right in our corner, it was going all the way they came to see LeBron James and a full eight minutes, the super senior has not disappointed, you can't defend the guy because you're out of balance you're leaning forward you're leaning to one side get balanced you can guard the guy I don't care if he makes the shot I want him to make a couple of those shots because later in the game he's not going to go So we want him to do that, okay, just cancel the deal and then go.

Westchester head coach Eddie Zam now James returns to the basket, steps into the lane and finishes with a right hand. Now Lebron James is protected by Jonathan Oliver James. He thought about it. stops, he's offside but he was hacked on the spot, so lebron james to the free throw line ron james, a guy who also performs in the classroom, has an excellent 3.5 point average, has a bad reputation with everything that happened off the court, but he's down to earth, his teammates love him, his classmates love him, he's the class clown at St. Vincent St Mary High School , an excellent young man in every sense, Jones left a triple open, now Lebron James works one on one against a reason. a jump shot outside is a two point field goal guy has been impressive from the perimeter opportunity for the fighting irish to build on a nine point cushion jump that's what everyone came to see lebron james athleticism in the return dunk here is James attacking a partially blocked shot for a reason, especially with all the attention coming from the outside, you need to surround yourself with some people to keep people away.

We talked about his teammates sometimes creating a cocoon and keeping it inside James. he left open the high rainbow that offers a sound through the nets, he will get 50. oh yeah, here's James O'Connell, that's not fair, he's a little irritated and he's taking it out of Westchester right now and Lebron is starting to bark with a crowd here. at the somber bank arena watch this left hand take a step back fall watch the finishes and what I like is the excitement you know he doesn't let the crowd stop him from being who he is he applauds the turnovers he's high-fiving the guys that's taking over he's not only making the basket he's creating excitement and electricity in the building maybe he can create shots I mean all he's doing is shooting fadeaways give him credit well they've entered, that doesn't mean you stop stopping. playing you go out and do what he did and get tougher on defense instead of going back he gets the ball now you guys are running to the other end you don't want to have any part of you know why because your egos are in If your Individual egos are in it right now and you don't want to be embarrassed, so don't get on the damn court, let someone else play, he does something, so you have to go out there and try to do something on your own. westchester comet shell hit halftime locker room a 17 point lead for halftime irish fighting continues at a time westchester needs the same start in the second half as they had to start the game more show time lebron james flying through the air as he puts it in the house, would you say he needed one more dunk to solidify himself?

That? Do it, give me the whole package, you got it now and the Fighting Irish give it back to you right away, Ariza loses control, there we go, oh my god, his head was about a foot above the river, oh, look at the crowd, see the whole building get up at the same time, give me a timeout, give me a timeout, the youngsters did some back-to-back Lebron James jumps and this place is speechless right now. he's got his mom back to back here he is again look how high he goes off the floor flight two 3 37 for lebron james so now he's in the NBA dunk contest tonight tonight is the NBA Don contest, well this guy should be in it because you know what would go with the hardware i have to do it and dick bytel was right oh yeah by far i mean i'm sitting in the courtroom by far the best player in secondary with height that I have seen on television or in person the three point offer is short from gerard moret here he is james going to the left hand he covers a lot of ground with such ease the comet is desperate for some offense the tip hello scott cutler the offer without looking from Lebron James and there you see the altruism and that is what he does best, he has vision of the court, he is two passes ahead of everyone, maybe he is not so tired, oh God, it's 42 points and counting, here is James back in the game, almost lost, he stands there and takes it down with his left hand. again showing the ability to go to that weekend right in front of the basket, James now at 44. he could take advantage of that one-on-one jumping total stop.

Wow, he's amazing himself, he even has a me shaking his head and laughing. Here's James. down he places it up and very gently with both hands 49 points for lebron james wants more to fall along the baseline he is hit and fouled on the ax many yellow and green colors in the stands while lebron james can convert into one of two and tied his career high of 50 points. Incredible performance tonight by 18-

year

-old James James, guarded by McClinton, moving away from the baseline and why not, he has now surpassed Lebron James' career high of 52 points. Small, big, one boy, two boys.

It doesn't matter and here he is walking out of the game and he listens to the crowd, they appreciate what he did here tonight and he has his arms up because more than anything he is back, we talked about his youth, but he wants to play, you know? Not him, he's not worried about the hummer and the t-shirts and here's his mom coming down, she'd probably give him a hug. They went through a lot last week and his mother Gloria trying to get down to the bench to congratulate. she herself scored 52 points tonight for lebron james, the fifth time she eclipsed 40 points in her high school career, 21 of 35 and went 4 or 6 of 10 instead of a three-point distance, a dazzling performance by lebron james, 18

year

s old.
