LeBron nails full court shot like NFL QB

LeBron James, arguably the greatest basketball of all time (yes, he is being spoken about in the same breath as MJ now) looks as though he could have played QB1 in the NFL.

Ahead of Game I of the Eastern Conference Finals against Boston Celtics the Cleveland great was warming up with teammates.

We are not talking lay up and passing drills.

This was a relaxed LeBron, shirt off standing in one corner of the court eyeing off the far ring.

With a basketball in one hand, looking like a football in his huge mitts he looked to step back in the pocket like Tom Brady and launch the ball.

Like hitting a wide receiver on the chest LeBron’s ball hit nothing but net at the far end.

He made it look so damn easy.

As far as the match went LeBron was huge.

he scored 38 points in a dominant display that saw the Cars beat the Celtics 117-104.
