LeBron James wasn't ready and Kevin Durant put him on a poster Monday night. At least, LeBron would be at the very bottom of the poster.
Durant took a pass on the fastbreak and went as aggressive as possible for a slam dunk despite James waiting for him in the paint. LeBron knew better than to really try and challenge KD in that spot.
Take a look at the highlight:
Defense has been optional so far in this NBA Finals matchup, as Warriors head coach Steve Kerr noted in the mid-quarter interview. It's resulted in a lot of run outs and opportunities for highlight plays such as this one.
In the first meeting between the two, the Warriors got the best of the Cavs on Christmas Day. Now in Cleveland, it's the Cavs holding the early advantage while Durant and Stephen Curry have been relatively quiet so far.
