Sunday, LeBron James threw it right back at Turner as he made a huge dunk in transition with Turner trailing behind.
With Turner recently making comments to James about how the son of Andre Iguodala is better at basketball of LeBron James, many have wondered if it would give James motivation on the corner.
Well after James slammed home the dunk off of a beautiful pass in transition from Kevin Love, he took his time to stare down Evan Turner after the play.
It wasn’t just a quick glance, it was a full on stare where James let Turner know he can’t stop him.
If the Celtics want to have a shot against the man who has been to four straight NBA Finals, they’re going to have quite the uphill climb.
Giving James any extra motivation is probably a bad idea. Whether or not Turner and James exchange was lighthearted or not, there has to be a reason James stared him down afterward.
Perhaps he was just fired up after making a huge play that was in the midst of a Cavaliers run where they recaptured momentum from the Celtics.
Last year, it was James who helped the Heat eliminate Evan Turner and the Pacers from the playoffs. Now, he’s trying to help Cleveland eliminate Turner and the Celtics.
Turner might be better off not saying anything to James anymore.
