We wondered all season if LeBron James had a the jets to turn it to another level in the post-season. Well, the Cleveland Cavaliers are up 2-0 in their series against the Detroit Pistons and it looks like he does.

Hassan Whiteside is shooting better than 60 percent this season and a lot of that is because he dunks a whole lot. The Miami Heat like to get Whiteside the ball on pick-and-rolls, and Dwyane Wade has specialized in getting his center the rock. Early in Miami’s win against the Charlotte Hornets Wednesday, Wade found Whiteside and Whiteside delivered the goods with a reverse jam.

Miami is a fun town…bikinis, Cuban food, Mojitos, celebrities, bikinis… oh! And the occasional robot! Yep, that’s right. Behold the dancing robot fan at AmericanAirlines Arena. As they say… it’s LIT.

It’s a good thing the Heat won or this robot would have looked real dumb leaving the arena.
