It is only 50+ point game he recorded on his home court, which at that time was the American Airlines Arena in Miami. All of his other ten 50+ point games had come on the road whether it was with the Heat or the Cavaliers.

That game, along with 61 points, he also recorded 7 rebounds and 4 assists but what was amazing about this onslaught was its efficiency. He shot 22-of-33 (66.7%) from the field and 8-of-10 (80%) from beyond the arc while only recording two turnovers in 42 minutes of action.

If all this greatness wasn't enough, how about picking another anecdote from the image. Yes, James was wearing a mask that day, a protective measure for his broken nose.
