James: "I've made big shots before"

LeBron James has insisted that he was only focused on not letting his teammates down as he fired the Cleveland Cavaliers to victory over the Chicago Bulls in game four of their playoff series.

James scored right on the buzzer with a jumping two-pointer from the corner to hand David Blatt's men an 86-84 win and level their Eastern Conference semi-final series.

He told reporters: "I've made big shots before in the post-season. We were able to regain home court with the shot. For me, I just don't like letting my teammates down. I did that a few times late, with two charge calls.

"We're a team. Coaches make mistakes, players make mistakes. I'm just trying to cover for my guys and move forward."

Game five of the series takes place in Cleveland on Tuesday.
