LeBron 37 pts (12 of 21 FG, 12 of 15 FT), 8 rebounds, 8 assists.
More points, shot better from the field, better from the line, more assists. Also those raw stats ignore the defense LeBron played on Giannis. How about you break down those numbers? Everything you posted and left out point to LeBron out playing Giannis. It doesn't mean that Giannis didn't have a good game, LeBron just had a better one. If the season hadn't been suspended, LeBron and Giannis were pretty even. Giannis has slightly better numbers because he has a higher usage. He also plays a weaker schedule that helps. Hopefully, we will get a chance to see who really is the better player in a 7 game series when this Corona Virus dies out.
