The Best Of LeBron James’ Crazy All-Star First Half Filled With Dunks And Half-Court Shots

LeBron James had himself quite the first half of basketball for the Eastern Conference in the NBA All-Star Game on Sunday night. The Cavs superstar went off for 20 points on 15 shots in the opening two quarters of ball in New Orleans and had a few ridiculous dunks and even got a near half-court shot to drop.

James showed off his shooting range with a bomb from the logo at mid-court to prove that he has just as much range as anyone else on the floor. In the All-Star game, this is an acceptable shot, which is why the game is so fun.

James also threw down plenty of massive dunks, because defense is dumb and people want to see dunks and buckets in the All-Star game. James gave the people what they wanted with a variety of jams in the first half, with my personal favorite being this lob to himself off of the backboard.

He also took a lob from DeMar DeRozan and turned it into a filthy reverse jam, which looks even cooler in slow motion.

LeBron and Kyrie connected in a familiar alley-oop pairing for a couple of lobs for James, including a tremendous off-backboard lob.

He also went baseline early in the game for a nice two-handed reverse dunk that set the tone for his entire performance.

James put on a show for the fans in New Orleans and gave himself a very strong start in the race for the game’s MVP award.
