    Kind of reminds me of Lebron's dunk with his heel on the free throw line. When Lebron gets the ball, he is about at half court, takes one dribble, and just skies to the rim.

    <iframe width="420" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/f-n8c5BK5T0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

    To me, this is one of the more fascinating plays I have ever seen. The fact that he did this with such little effort and with it looking like an every day play is a prime example of how elite Lebron is and how easy it is to take his abilities for granted.

    That's a travel, to much steps. Look when he picks up the ball.

    That angle shows it was not a travel. He only took 2 steps after he picked up his dribble.

    Let's not jump the gun. Wait and see how many blocks he can get in a preseason game first.

    His bags were packed when he saw the defender in front of him. That being said, it's not uncommon to get away with it. Nice move all the same.
