This block is ridiculous.

[hitmanyr2k]

It's not even the block. It's the way Lebron turns on the jets when he hits half court. It's like the damn bionic man or something and the way he shifted into another gear looked so effortless :lol

i argued last year that lebron is one of the fastest players in the league....and got bitched at.

If any other player made that block it would lead Sportscenter because they haven't done it before. Lebron's had a dozen of those this season.

[ffadicted]

How do players not understand yet that this shit happens when you play cleveland? Does anybody read scouting reports?

[TheManFromAcme]

Nice block nonetheless.

:lol I thought the same thing. "No layups on fast breaks against Cleveland" should have been at the top of that report.

[O.J Mayo]

Not again. Fuck LeBron and his lame defensive tactics.

[it's me]

goaltending

[ChrisRichards]

Nice one! Kome can never block like that in transition :toast

[Obstructed_View]

goaltending

Not from four different angles.

+1

How many defenders catch up with a player miles ahead of him on a fast break to block his layup at full speed?

Didn't Tayshaun Prince do it to Reggie Miller years ago? We still see that one on TV every so often, though usually to embarrass Miller.

goal tending unless you're lebron
where amazing happens

[IronMexican]

Anyone see Jamarcus Russell on TNT last week? That was hilarious.

[FalleNxWiZarDx]

thanks for witnessing fellas

[z0sa]

LeBron is clearly the best perimeter player on both ends.

[bostonguy]

Not again. Fuck LeBron and his lame defensive tactics.

How is that lame? He never gives up on a play. He is a damn good defender. It's not like he is getting beat off the dribble and doing this. I gotta give him props for that type of effort.

[JoeTait75]

Sorry, not a goaltend.

[hitmanyr2k]

That wasn't even close to goaltending. That ball gets swatted as soon as it leaves Mayo's hands and it wasn't over the rim.

[Obstructed_View]

Again, not goaltending in any universe. Four slow motion angles proves it conclusively.

[j.dizzle]

Sons, everytime an opponent of Cle has a fastbreak, I just wait for Lebron to come out nowhere, running full speed like a bull to swat that shit hahaha I guess some teams will never learn...He's had like 50 of those this season alone

[namlook]

Its a good block but there's nothing amazing about it. I've seen that play many times and have seen it made by mediocre, but athletic players. There's a very easy way to prevent this type of block. You dunk the ball instead of laying it in. You would think players would be smart enough to figure that out.

I wonder why namlook has this opinion..

[Muser]

Yeah Reggie was on the fast break and put up a weak ass layup and Tayshaun came out of nowhere to send it into the stands.

[Obstructed_View]

its a good block but there's nothing amazing about it because kobe didn't do it.

fify

[DPG21920]

LMAO at people saying this is not a great block. Just because Lebron has de-sensitized you to it because he does it over and over does not make it any less great.

[O.J Mayo]

Until you realise I am the freaking victim here.

[BRHornet45]

Birdman blocks shots like that on a weekly basis, but since its Lebron this deserves front page headlines.

[himat]

LeBron might not be the best player to ever play in the league or not even the best player in the league right now, but I think its pretty obvious that he is the closest thing to the perfect athlete to ever play professional sports. Please tell me a flaw in him athletically. Please, because I can't find one.

Watch the J-Rich one. Look how fast he gets back. Its scary. Scarier than the O.J Mayo one.

Tayshaun's is still way better though...:downspin::downspin::downspin::downspin:

No. He doesn't.

[BRHornet45]

No. He doesn't.

oh yes he does.

[himat]

oh yes he does.

Not from half court when the other guy is already a foot away from the basket.

If he has please show me a video.

[DPG21920]

oh yes he does.

No. He doesn't. Also, if this league caters to super stars, and CP3 is a super star, why does he not get his fair share? I mean, he does drink milk and do super nice things off of the court. Just not fair.

It was an Amazing block! The only other guy in the league I could see doing that is maybe Josh Smith.

[LakerHater]

Was a good block but, James does it all the time!!

Didnt he do it to a Magic player then in the playoffs he tried to do it but the Magic started dunkin on breaks?

Courtney Lee got him twice I think.

T'was Courtney Lee. He got blocked the first time but went up strong the rest of the series.

Kindly link us to those "easy", unamazing blocks like this that Kobe's had, Mr. Laker Fan.

:lmao at the fact that the only people in this thread who are pretending to be unimpressed are Lakers fans. You love Kobe so much you can't even appreciate other players. Sickening.

I'll be impressed with footage of him blocking shots 1vs1, face to face.

Fortunately for you, Laker fan, LeBron has never, ever, in the history of his life, blocked someone while facing him. Now rest secure in the knowledge that you have the greatest athlete of all time on your team.

[hitmanyr2k]

Speaking of blocking guys face to face how many small forwards would have the nerve to challenge Shaq at the rim? Pip got the foul (which was a bullshit call because it was a clean block) but that takes guts.

youre right! when he gets beat off the dribble, which is like every other possession, he hollers "HELP-STRONG SIDE" and sips a gatorade with jay z on the sidelines untill its time for him to get the ball again.

[namlook]

LOL @ the people hating.

Lebron was able to make that play because Mayo came from a sideline angle to the basket while Lebron was running straight down the court. A lot more players could do that than you think. The NBA is full of athletes. Jordan Farmar made a very similar rundown block this season. Look how far behind the play Farmar is before he catches Alston:

This block by Shannon Brown makes Lebron's block look like child's play. When have you ever seen someone go up this high, block the shot and control the ball cleanly? That's just sick. Bad call on the foul too.:
