Los Angeles Lakers star small forward LeBron James got disrespected by the Miami Heat in Game 2 of the 2020 Finals in the first quarter.

The Heat left James wide open from beyond the arc, and The King made them pay.

Take a look:

While LeBron James isn't the best 3-point shooter, the Heat can't leave him open from deep like that. The Lakers superstar has worked very hard on his outside shot and is a career 34.4 percent shooter from deep with the Cleveland Cavaliers, Heat and LA.

James is looking to make NBA history at Walt Disney World. If he wins the championship and takes home the Finals MVP trophy, he would become the first player ever to win three titles and three Finals MVP awards with three different franchises.
