The Cleveland lob city all stars
Whenever LeBron James and Kyrie Irving step out on to any basketball court, the results can be deadly. Especially the way the two have been playing, their chemistry just keeps growing. Today in Washington against the Wizards, they put on quite the spectacle.
On a 2-on-1 fast break opportunity to start the game, Kevin Love dished the ball out to LBJ, who dished it to Kyrie and got back the alley-oop so he could put it down in thunderous fashion. Otto Porter Jr. was the only one left to defend that play and he had absolutely no chance of stopping two All-Star MVP’s when they’re coming at you at full speed.
Then later on in the game, Kyrie drove to the hoop on another fast break and finished with an amazing reverse layup that went around John Wall for the shot and one. The move brought King James off the bench in complete hype after pulling off the crazy finish.
The Cavaliers went on to cruise for the win on the road, thanks to 28 points from James and 25 points from Irving.
