LeBron James hit his head on a camera Thursday night and came up bloody. The Golden State Warriors rode a 27-12 fourth quarter and tied the NBA Finals at two games apiece with a 103-82 win on the road against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
But Game 4 will be remembered as that time ABC accidentally showed America James’ penis moments before tipoff.

Well, that’s one thing that #MichaelJordan never did. Ironically, we may look back at #LeBronsDick as the turning point in this series.

With the loss, James’s Cavaliers saw their hopes of winning an NBA title drastically reduced.
GSW back up to a 76% favorite to win the Finals per Elo ratings, which is about where the series started.

Should that happen, we’ll be able to point to a defined turning point in the series.
