Cleveland Cavaliers star LeBron James might be upset his team no longer holds the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference playoff race. Or maybe he just wanted to put an end to all this #TNTBulls nonsense. Whatever his motivation, LeBron was exceptionally active during the first half of Thursday night’s game.
James had 19 points to go along with four rebounds, three assists, a steal and a block.
He also had a few big plays, the first came on a huge one-handed dunk over Chicago’s Joffrey Lauvergne.

Then LeBron pinned a Michael Carter-Williams layup against the glass:

And he finished the quarter -- literally -- with a buzzer-beating jumper:
