WATCH: LeBron Goes Down After Colliding With Teammate's Elbow

CLEVELAND - You knew the match-up for Game 3 of the NBA Finals was going to be physical -- but one would think the blows would be dealt by the opposing team -- not your teammate.

For Cleveland fans the moments must have seemed an eternity -- as LeBron lay on the floor of Quicken Loans Arena with the Cavs winless in the series thus far.

Clearly shaken up after the blow -- James did continue to play after the first half smash-up -- but walked to the bench -- refused medical attention and then got back in on the next possession.

The Golden State Warriors are up in the series over the Cleveland Cavaliers 2-0 entering the Game 3 in the best of 7 series.
