The Los Angeles Lakers finally overcame their Oklahoma City demons as they walloped the Thunder, 116-95. If there was one play to encapsulate them ending their frustration, it's LeBron James's exclamation point poster on an unsuspecting Tre Mann.

The Lakers star had his back turned as he caught the ball in the paint, which looked to be setting up his patented fadeaway jumper. But instead, King James turned on the jets as he rose up with bad intentions for the slam. Check out the vintage LeBron throwdown below:

Not everyone gets to be on a poster with a potential GOAT, so in a way Tre Mann could consider himself lucky. To the Thunder rookie's credit, he ended up leading OKC in scoring with a career-high 19 points, albeit with significant garbage time action.

After giving up 26 and 19-point leads during their first two meetings, the Lakers had no plans of relinquishing their 29-point lead this time around.

LeBron James never let his foot off the gas as he powered in 33 points, five rebounds, six assists on 13-for-20 shooting from the field. He was even surprisingly spry on the defensive end, with three steals and two blocks to his name.

The Lakers continue to trade wins with losses as the schedule goes. While the win over the Thunder is valuable in of itself, how they parlay their moment is arguable even more important to watch.
