Sometimes you just want to play ball, and sometimes it just can't wait.

Eager to get the game underway, the Cavaliers - including superstar forward LeBron James - decided to take the court in the middle of the ladies' routine and stand in between them as they awaited their opponents.
In what is perhaps the most comical scene we've seen in the NBA so far this season, the Cleveland giants tower over the cheerleaders with their game faces on.
Perhaps next time the Raptors will shorten their pre-game show.
