Watch LeBron strike Michael Jordan's most famous pose on fastbreak dunk
LeBron James has thrown down a lot of dunks in his NBA career. According to Basketball-Reference, in fact, he'd made 1,672 slams before Friday night's game against the Atlanta Hawks.
Now, that's an unofficial tally, but that's not important. What is important is one particular dunk that LeBron added to his career total on Friday night. With the Cleveland Cavaliers comfortably ahead, James finished a transition break of his own creation by striking a pretty familiar pose:
Where have we seen that before? Oh, right, on every piece of merchandise associated with Michael Jordan:
Looks pretty clearly like the "Jumpman" to us -- which, for those who somehow might not know, is Jordan's famous logo. It's a brand mark that Jordan and Nike had to go to court over, a case that went in Jordan's favor.
But maybe we're just projecting. It's just us, right?
