Instrumental to the Cavs leading the Raptors by double-digits in Game 1 of the second-round series between Toronto and Cleveland, LeBron James was really feeling himself throughout the contest. Even after missing a shot, James was extra amped, taking a beer from a Quicken Loans arena employee and pretending to drink it.
And just like J.R. Smith‘s gleeful reaction, Twitter broke out the jokes and memes in response to James’ antics:
JR looks like he's peer pressuring him. Bron looks like he doesn't want to disappoint his family pic.twitter.com/eih4qeTy8v

Proof that LeBron is not a winner. Back in the day, superstars drank beers at halftime. Today’s players are soft by comparison. https://t.co/rBOPOyxUkW

That beer bottle LeBron grabbed and pretended to drink should be sent to the Hall of Fame today.

Just what if LeBron grabbed that beer bottle & broke it over his head? That would've been something, right?

LeBron just grabbed a beer out of a server's hand mid-game. He's in rare form
