During the NBA Finals on Sunday, LeBron James gets blocked twice on the same possession.

LeBron James is one of the best basketball players in the world. That is mainly due to his enormous size and physical tools that allow him to get to the basket and either dunk on someone, or craftily find a way to get around taller defenders; he rarely gets blocked. Maybe that is because he only sees Draymond Green and Andrew Bogut twice a year in the regular season.

During the Clevalnd Cavaliers’ trip to Golden State to take on the Warriors in Game 2 of the NBA Finals, LeBron got his shot blocked twice on the same possession by Andrew Bogut and Draymond Green.

Check out the king getting his stuff swatted–and then swatted again on the same play.

LeBron has had a tough time shooting consistently in Game 2. With Kyrie Irving sidelined, LeBron has made just 9-of-22 shots, even though he does have 26 points. It’s of no surprise that the Warriors defense has been able to focus more on keeping LeBron out of the paint and taking lower percentage shots.

The two blocks from Green and Bogut are a result of that, and if the Cavs want to have any chance of beating the Warriors without Kyrie Irving, they are going to have to figure out a way around the smothering Warriors defense. Entering the fourth quarter, the Cavs have a small lead. But LeBron will be thinking twice about entering that paint that the Warriors big men have been owning all game long.
