Lebron James facing fatigue, too much responsibility & no Kyrie Irving

No opponent can ever count Lebron James down - and certainly not out.

But in Game Five last night versus Boston, he looked genuinely exhausted. With Lebron generating most of Cleveland's offense and being defended at some point by virtually every Celtic on the floor, physical fatigue may be setting in. As television analyst Mark Jackson stated, "Give credit to the Celtics and the multiple bodies they put on him."

Boston's defensive schemes have a lot to do with that.
