28 year old LeBron James is the best player in basketball in 2013. He sweeps the board - first in PER, Win Shares, VORP, WS/48. There is no debate, he's the top guy. 28 year old Bosh and 31 year old Wade also hit 20 PER. Pat Riley, of course, is the GM for this team and Bob McAdoo is an assistant coach. Wonder what they were doing 30 years prior?

Maybe the most interesting first round series - Pat Riley v Pat Riley, Showtime vs The Heatles. Here's the mirror image of the Sixers team from the prior series - except the Lakers are seeded 15th in the region and facing the 23rd overall seed in the tournament. 35 year old Kareem and 23 year old Magic are both over 20 PER with double digit WS. Bob McAdoo's 31, coming off the bench with a 20 PER and he's an assistant coach with the Heat 30 years later. Gonna be a banger.
