When Cleveland Cavaliers star and NBA media darling LeBron James blocked Yao Ming in the final minutes of the Cavs 99-90 win back in late December, it was just the kind of thing that feeds highlight reels for a solid month.
It won't get the same hype, but Yao had his revenge Thursday night.
It apparently wasn't enough retribution for Yao to go completely nuts from the field, hitting 13-15 shots, nor did it suffice for him to throw down a slam (and foul) earlier in the game over LeBron.
No sir. Yao went block-for-block, stuffing King James late in the fourth and leaving him in a crumpled heap on the floor.
Here's video of LeBron's block of Yao back in December, and "Yao's Revenge" tonight.
