Boomer & Carton: LeBron's Jaw-Dropping Exploits, Taking Care Of First Place And Horse Racing History

LeBron James put the Cavaliers teammates he has left on his back Sunday night and managed to steal Game 2 in Oakland, tying up what has been a very entertaining NBA Finals thus far.

Boomer & Craig couldn't help but get this Monday edition of the Morning Extravaganza underway by talking about "The King." He held court and continues to carve out his own, unique place in basketball history.  Boomer & Craig were collectively awed by James' performance as the series now shifts to Cleveland for Games 4 and 5.

Both baseball locals took care of business on Sunday and remain atop their respective divisions, which is a good thing.  For the Yanks, Alex Rodriguez inches closer to 3,000 career hits -- he is just nine shy of the milestone -- and Craig thinks that's a pretty big deal.

As for American Pharoah -- the horse who made history Saturday at Belmont Park by capturing the first Triple Crown since 1978 -- Craig doesn't see what all the fuss is about, while Boomer was clearly moved by the impressive victory.

So there you have it. It's a Monday, and yours just got better because you're here.  You're really the big winner -- way to go!!!
