Getting to the basket is usually a straight-forward task for someone of LeBron James' ability, but when there are no defenders in sight, it makes one wonder what's running through the opposing team's heads to allow such a thing to happen.
Jeff Green of the Los Angeles Clippers gave James a great deal of breathing room during this possession on Sunday, and with "The King" having a running head start, it was next to impossible to get back in front of his assignment and prevent the highlight-reel throwdown from happening.
Better luck next time, then.
