When it comes to LeBron James, all talk of strategy and ordinary basketball convention goes out the window.
In principle, the Golden State Warriors could not have smothered James better if they tried. Klay Thompson stays with him on the drive, using his body to shield the contact before forcing James into a stop. Then, David Lee does the right thing on defense by helping on a trap.
But it doesn't matter. James fades over a forest of arms before nailing an insanely difficult bank shot.
