I've seen AK (who before LeBron was the master at chasing down players from behind for a block) have a similar sequence, but it's still one of the most impressive plays of the season whether you've seen something like that before or not.
My favorite part is the effort and competiveness - so many players would have given up on the first layup attempt, and then definitely given up after the loose ball was saved directly to the opponent or simply take a foul on Bradley...but Hayward kept going after it, and then still had the fight to dig out the loose ball and lead a fastbreak. You can never have enough players who compete like that, and put that drive on a 6-8 guy like Hayward and it's exciting to think about the type of player he can become.
