What’s more, this comes after the fact that LeBron took Kyrie on his All-star squad as his first pick. And despite that, there was no remorse when the two met today, with LBJ making a stunning play.
LeBron James makes an emphatic block on Kyrie Irving
As the game between the Mavericks and the Lakers unfolded, one thing was evident, there will be no remorse. And LeBron James was not going to let Kyrie Irving get to the rack so easily.
