Kyrie Irving Finds Target on Pinpoint Alley-Oop to LeBron James

Andrew GouldMay 2, 2017

Kyrie Irving and LeBron James made a thunderous statement early in Game 1 of the Cleveland Cavaliers' second-round series with the Toronto Raptors. Less than three minutes into the opening bout, Irving threw an alley-oop off the top of the backboard for James to slam home.

As James said after the game, per Cleveland.com's Chris Fedor, he wanted his point guard to direct the assist as high as he could.

"I pointed to the glass," James said. "Or you can say, I told him to throw it to the sky. I like that better. It's a little higher than the glass."

Irving listened and hit the desired target. Above, Bleacher Report offered a different perspective of the Cleveland duo's precise air strike from Monday night's 116-105 victory.
