Jarrett Allen blocks LeBron’s shot and social media blows up
What’s interesting about this play here is LeBron James goes up for a dunk and it gets blocked by Jarrett Allen. Okay, I like Allen because he reminds me of that old school dude with the afro on EA Sports NBA Street that you play on Playstation!

He didn’t have the greatest game. He even missed a dunk! But this play set the NBA world on fire. ESPN covered it in detail. Here’s the kicker…this happened at the BEGINNING of the game! This was such a big deal that there is a list of players that actually blocked his dunk shot!

Here’s what amazing about this (Outside of Kelly Oubre being on this list!) LeBron James is such a phenomenon that a blocked dunk in Brooklyn was one of the top NBA stories of the day! The Anthony Davis rumors don’t count, so this WAS the top NBA news story of the day.
This is not about the block. It is about how huge LeBron James is right now! Amazing! One blocked shot and the internet almost breaks! Take that Kim Kardashian!
