    Dwight's wearing a Jake (from Adventure Time) backpack. That's the best part of this clip in my opinion.

    Dwight made it look easier and shot from a few feet further back. You lose, Lebron.

    That's my favorite part too. I don't care what anyone says, Dwight will always be cool in my book. "I love warm hugs" Olaf tshirts... Big kid off the court, mean man on the court

    No kidding. That's the first thing I noticed. He threw that thing like he was throwing a baseball. Geez.

    He didn't shoot from farther out. Lebron shot from the corner so it's debatable.

    My first thought also... that ball just doesn't look like regulation size in his hand?

    Impressive by both players, but I think the nod has to go to LeBron. He's shooting from the corner, so a more diagonal shot is a farther distance. His overhand throwing motion with the basketball is ridiculous, too. Who can throw a basketball 100+ feet overhand? Dwight has a side-curl throwing motion. Since LeBron throws it overhand, he also has more velocity on the ball whereas Dwight has a slower velocity but higher arc.

    Wonder how many tries it took for each.

    Curry made 73 out of 100 of these.

    I agree that the baseball throw is just amazing and also wonder how many tries it took. Funny how Harden said it looks fake like that commercial of Lebron a few years back.

    I thought they were fake, but here is lebron's shot from a different angle:

    <blockquote class="twitter-video" lang="en"><p>What my sister witnessed is crazy <a href="https://twitter.com/KingJames">@KingJames</a> <a href="http://t.co/Iig1iSiqoq">pic.twitter.com/Iig1iSiqoq</a></p>&mdash; Corey Clifton (@CoreyClifton3) <a href="https://twitter.com/CoreyClifton3/status/592028629602836480">April 25, 2015</a></blockquote> <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

    Maybe its real
