LeBron James has been compared to Michael Jordan many times throughout his NBA career. Whether or not James is or ever was on Jordan’s level, it’s hard to ignore that some of his dunks have looked similar to the ones “His Airness” used to throw down.

The Atlanta Hawks found that out the hard way in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals on Tuesday night, when the Cavaliers forced a turnover which ended with James taking flight and throwing down a powerful dunk.

Watch the Cavaliers forward take off from just inside the free-throw line to soar through the air and dunk the ball through the hoop with authority.

James started Game 3 in a 0-of-10 shooting slump. That wasn’t the case in Tuesday’s Eastern Conference Finals matchup.
