The King doesn’t look like he’s too worried about this game against the Toronto Raptors.

With Game 1 between the Cleveland Cavaliers and Toronto Raptors pretty lopsided, LeBron James found some time to joke around. After missing a layup with about 2:25 to go in the third quarter, LeBron was looking for a drink to take the edge off. The Cavs star grabbed a bottle of beer out of a courtside server’s hand and pretended to drink it, before letting her pass it on to its rightful owner.

With Cleveland up 87-71 at the time, LeBron was rightfully in the mood for some antics, but in a closer game his reaction to missing that shot might’ve been a little different. The Cavs finished the third up 96-74 over the Raptors, needing just to preserve their 22-point cushion to see out this game.

LeBron pretty much has himself to thank for Cleveland’s advantage, too, with 25 points to his name at the end of the quarter. He’s been doing that pretty consistently in the playoffs, averaging 32.8 points and 9.0 assists per game.

The Cavs look like they’re going to take Game 1 of this second-round NBA Playoffs series, as they hope to win again in this rematch of last year’s Eastern Conference Final. If they hold on, they’ll have a chance to make it 2-0 when they host the Raptors again on Wednesday at Quicken Loans Arena.

It looks like LeBron’s confident enough to kick back and grab a beer tonight, but he’ll still have to be on his game to ensure he and the Cavs win the series, as they look to repeat as NBA Champions.
