CLEVELAND: LeBron James took a moment to lighten the mood in the third quarter Monday night as the Cavaliers hit the Toronto Raptors with yet another run.
James drove to the basket and attempted a layup as Serge Ibaka fouled him. The ball bounced off the rim and out, and James playfully proceeded to grab an adult beverage from a waitress as she walked courtside and tended to spectators.
James’ sense of humor made the home fans laugh, and his play throughout the opening game of the Eastern Conference semifinals made them cheer as the Cavs recorded a 116-105 victory before a sellout crowd of 20,562 at Quicken Loans Arena.
