It's becoming commonplace for the reigning NBA MVP to take over the top performance, whenever he plays. That was the case on Monday night as he dropped a season-high 57 points against the Memphis Grizzlies. It was his third game scoring 50 points or more for the season, and his 17th straight game with at least 30 points!
