We have to admit that this play is a little unfair to LeBron James, as Jonas Valanciunas’ dunk is the result of Shane Battier leaving his man in order to make a feeble attempt at drawing a charge. But, regardless of LeBron being forced into sudden help duty, he still got in the air to challenge the shot. Hence: posterization.
It’s okay, LeBron, it happens to the best of ’em.
