David Liam Kyle/NBAE/Getty Images The people in the front row weren't nearly as disappointing as the people missing from the rows behind. LeBron James is 25 years old, and has played 70 playoff games in which he has averaged 29 points, eight rebounds and seven assists. His career playoff PER is better than Michael Jordan's. Remember that Jordan's playoff PER wasn't marred by the Washington years. This is all Bulls. James has also played far more playoff games than Jordan had at this point. It took seven years for Jordan to get to his 70th game. The reason is that James has won more, at this stage, than Jordan had. Leave the "is James better than Jordan" discussion for another decade. The message is that a half-decade in, James stacks up well against the very best ever, in terms of production, defense, playoff wins and anything else you can measure or see with your eyes. He almost never has bad games. Forgive me a detour: I remember being a kid at Blazer...
