http://espn.go.com/blog/truehoop/post/_/id/54262/lebron-was-almost-perfectLeBron James came within one shot of perfection from the field on Monday. He was 13-for-14 in the Miami Heat’s win over the Charlotte Bobcats on Monday night.
Here are the top things to know from that performance, one that stands atop James' best games in at least one area.
1. This was the best field-goal shooting game of James’ career, regardless of the number of shots taken. His previous best was a 9-for-11 (82 percent) game against the Nets last March.
The chart on the right shows how James fared on all the different play types.
2. The only shot James missed was marked as a four-footer that rolled off the rim with 2:33 left in the 3rd quarter and the Heat leading 61-57. James has shot an NBA-best 76 percent from the field this season on shots from less than five feet (minimum 100 shots).
