NBA News And Rumors: Heat-Celtics Rivalry Intensifies As LeBron James Says He's Happy He Dunked Over Jason Terry (Video)

Miami Heat's LeBron James confirmed that his monstrous dunk over Celtic guard Jason Terry was satisfying, and happy if happened to Terry of all people.

The Heat are in Cleveland Wednesday for their game against the Cavaliers, and during the morning shootaround said:

"It was one of my better ones," James said. "And the fact that it happened to J.T. made it even that much sweeter. Because I think we all know what J.T. talks, and he talks too much sometimes and I'm glad it happened to him."

Terry has taken opportunities while with both the Dallas Mavericks and now Celtics to launch verbal salvos at James' Heat, including when the Mavericks defeated the Heat in the 2011 NBA Finals.

The dunk came in the second quarter with the Heat trailing 48-35. Terry mishandled the dribble as he was stripped and then as he tried getting back on defense, before he can look up and notice who he was defending, James came soaring down the lane and Terry fell to his demise.

When asked for comment at Wednesday's Celtics practice, Terry told the media, "I'm not even commenting. No comment. Zero. I have none. A basketball play."

James received a technical foul for his stare-down of Terry after the dunk.
