LeBron James celebrates shot prematurely, ends up looking silly


The Cleveland Cavaliers did their best impressions of the Golden State Warriors Sunday in Game 1 against the Detroit Pistons, and while the Cavs dazzled with some gorgeous ball movement, LeBron James' attempt to celebrate a three-pointer before it goes in (a Warriors specialty) went horribly wrong. Before Kyrie Irving even released this wide-open three, James was running back on defense with his hand in the air - but Irving hit the rim, and James' departure meant Tristan Thompson was the only Cleveland player with a chance for an offensive rebound.
Oops. To be fair, had Irving made the shot the building would have exploded, so it was probably worth the gamble by James. Nothing will top Andre Bogut's ridiculously early celebration that actually got in the way of his own teammate.
