After a successful layup attempt by Chris Paul, LeBron James fell over himself in the bench area during the NBA All-Star Game.

It is no secret that Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James and Phoenix Suns guard Chris Paul are very good friends. It came as no shock once James selected Paul in the NBA All-Star Game draft to join his rather stacked team. The friendship was visible for all to see during the big midseason contest.

In the first half, Paul dribbled past Mike Conley of Team Kevin Durant for a nice layup attempt. It caused the Team LeBron bench to erupt in celebration, and the team captain couldn’t help but tumble over the barricade.

James quite literally lost function of his limbs during that celebration. Either that, or he was acting like a proud coach and friend. Either way, Team LeBron is having a good time in the first half, as they entered halftime with a 100-80 lead over Team Durant.

There are still two quarters remaining in the All-Star Game. Will Team LeBron emerge victoriously? Or will Team Durant overcome the odds to pull off what many would deem an upset?
