Ebron James isn't the first high school basketball player to go straight into the NBA, but he's probably the   1  . He has the body, skills and the basketball brain of an All-Star (全明星球員).      This talent was on_2_ as he scored 41 points to take Cleveland Cavaliers (克里夫蘭騎士隊) to a 107-104 win over the New Jersey Nets (新澤西網(wǎng)隊) on March 28. Aged of 19 years and 87 days, James became the  3   player to score 40 or more in the NBA. "It was by far James' best   4   ," said Cleveland coach Paul Silas. Known to his friends as "the king", this was the day James earned his crown (王冠). But he was far from being a king during a childhood spent in the back streets of Akron, Ohio. Like many other African-American basketball players, James' early years were a    5  . His mother Gloria was just 16 when she gave birth to him; he knows nothing about his father. Mother and son battled for everything from food to a place to live. Without help from his grandmother and neighbors, James would    6   have died when he was young.      This spirit of survival has served him well on court, forcing him to take any  7   he finds. "I  8   losing, I don't like losing," said James of his 41-point display. "I   9   the opportunity for us to win and I was  10    to capture it." At 2.03 metres, he is no Yao Ming but this didn't   11   him being first choice in 2003 NBA draft. This was  12   to his strength and skill, much of which he learned from high school American football.      Although he has a  13  brain, James has never had to concentrate on    14  . Some people think this is a mistake and say he should have gone to college to    15   his mind. But James is one of the lucky few who has found fame and fortune without a diploma (文憑). On the court, he is king.
