VIDEO: King James crowns Nets with late-game heroics
Action Images
LeBron James probably didn't want his Cleveland Cavaliers to waste a three-point lead with less than 15 seconds remaining in the game.
After Brooklyn Nets sharpshooter Joe Johnson iced three foul shots thanks to an ill-advised and ill-timed J.R. Smith foul, King James took it upon himself to finish the job for Cleveland.
Channeling his inner Kareem Abdul-Jabbar with this pretty skyhook, James' shot put the nail in the Nets' proverbial coffin.
The Cavs escaped a late-game collapse with the 90-88 victory that improved their record to 13-4, while the 3-13 Nets' struggles continue.
