When LeBron James gets that look in his eye, you already know what time it is.
Late in the third quarter, with the momentum swinging and the crowd buzzing, the King decided it was time to turn up the heat. One possession, jab step — splash. LeBron pulls up from deep and drills a three right over the outstretched hand of the defender. The bench jumps up. The arena erupts. But LeBron’s not done.
Next trip down the floor? Same story.
Little hesitation, little space — COOKIN’. Another three. Nothing but net.
Back-to-back. Vintage Bron. The King reminding everybody why he’s still the most dangerous man on the court when the stakes are high.
And the best part? He knew it.
LeBron turned to the crowd, gave a quick nod, and you could almost hear him without the mic:
“Yeah, I’m cookin’.” 🔥👑
The energy completely shifted.
Two straight threes from Bron didn’t just extend the lead — they broke the spirit of the other team.
Timeout.
Crowd losing its mind.
LeBron walking back to the bench cool as ever, like it’s just another Tuesday.
This is what greatness looks like.
Not just the points. Not just the highlights. It’s the timing. The feel. Knowing exactly when to put the foot on the gas and bury the opponent under a flurry of buckets they can’t answer.
He wasn’t forcing it either — it was pure rhythm.
Catch. Calm. Fire. Splash. Repeat.
COOKIN’. 👑
There’s something about LeBron in these moments that feels inevitable.
You can see defenders trying everything — closing out hard, switching, crowding — but it doesn’t matter.
When LeBron’s got it cooking from three?
Good luck. Pray.
It wasn’t just about those two shots either. It was the momentum swing they caused.
Suddenly teammates are flying around on defense.
Suddenly the fast break is wide open.
Suddenly you look up and what was a tight game is now a double-digit gap.
All because LeBron decided, “Alright, time to turn it up a notch.”
It’s a reminder — just when you think you’ve got the momentum,
Just when you think the game’s slowing down,
LeBron James can change everything in 30 seconds.
COOKIN’.
👑🔥
Still.
