Anytime the Golden State Warriors and the Cleveland Cavaliers get together for a game, the storylines are always going to be plentiful in the most anticipated matchup the NBA has to offer.
One of the more humorous ones was LeBron James’ interaction with a Warriors’ fan. The fan, of course, was likely taunting the best player on the Cavaliers because his team was down large.
As LeBron set up for the play, he appeared to remind the fan just how many championships he has won.

The move is actually a take on another NBA legend. When sitting on the bench, longtime Los Angeles Laker Kobe Bryant once made the same gesture to the fan, but Bryant held up five fingers.
Cleveland would lose the game 126-91. The Cavaliers are in first place in the Eastern Conference with a 29-11 record, while the Warriors are in first place in the Western Conference with a 35-6 record.
