FOR THOSE WHO didn’t stay up last night to watch the Cleveland Cavaliers beat the Orlando Magic — which, we’re guessing, is pretty much everybody — you might want to take a look at this.

Depending on how you look at it, this is even further evidence of LeBron’s incredible speed of thought, spatial and situational awareness, and inch-perfect execution… or it’s a complete fluke.
We know which side of history we want to be on.
