Lebron’s Sick Blocks Against Phoenix

Everyone knows how amazing Lebron is on the offensive side of the floor. He can shoot. He can pass. He can soar into the paint for monstrous facial dunks. He is unstoppable on the run. He can do everything.

This season, he has added something to his arsenal. He has become a more solid defensive player. He has incredible anticipation for steals which lead to easy baskets on the other end. More noticeably, his blocking ability has been off the charts. He’s been chasing players three steps ahead of him and swatting their shots into the fourth row.

In their game against the Phoenix Suns, Lebron would display great athleticism, speed, and tremendous hustle as he chases down his opponents to get a block. The first victim would be Leandro Barbosa. He would be 2 or 3 steps away from Lebron but Lebron gets to him on time.

The next block is just wonderful. I am at a loss for words. Have you ever seen a 360 dunk blocked? This was phenomenal; one of the best blocks in NBA history. This block shows what greatness is about. In this sequence, Lebron James chases Jason Richardson as he goes in for an easy 360 dunk. A no call on the play would be debatable but the fact that Lebron had it in him to still chase J-Rich on a broken defensive sequence shows how great a basketball player he is.
