KG did that for years Not sure he still does though. Beats Reggie clapping poweder in the announcers faces.

Why are you such a dumbass?

[Solid Snake]

From my starting days of watching Jordan play in 1993, to KG, and now Lebron, I've found this action EXTREMELY DISRESPECTFUL.

How the hell is this cool or entertaining? You're putting debris in the orfice holes of [possibly] unwilling participants, even though they are smiling while inhaling dust particles.

Just go out there and play the game, it's not about you..

[lilmarcgasol]

hes a great player just looks like a fairy princess throwing magic dust in the air whenever he does that

[Kobe4life]

because he wants to look cool

[JJ81]

Its just his pre-game routine. KG did it before him.

KG didn't throw it into the air. He put it in his palms and ran them against each other so it actually stays on his hands. I don't know why Lebron wastes it and throws it in the air. Unless he puts some on his hands and then throws some away

Because its theatrical and gets the crowd hyped. And it clearly works.

[lilmarcgasol]

ok bron just did it and cleveland fans had powder of their own did it right back at lebron ok that was the gayest thing i ever saw in nba game, lebron gave cleveland fans their sugarplum christmas dreams goddamn how gay

["Jesus"]

He has an entire commercial on this.

[stephanieg]

He's a big emphysema fan.

[StephenDedalus]

It's the gimmick Nike had him do from day one.

I always laugh at that commercial because of how pathetic it is.
