This is what happens when NBA superstars have to go through a full quarter of garbage time.

LeBron James and Kyrie Irving passed the closing minutes of the Cavs' blowout of the Knicks at Madison Square Garden on Wednesday trying to get a water bottle to land right side up.

LeBron was definitely hustling after the loose bottle during play, even risking floor burn.

Check it out:

James seemed to put as much effort into the pastime challenge as he did in racking up 25 points, six rebounds and seven assists in 32 minutes.

Cleveland rolled 126-94 in LeBron's first meeting with Phil Jackson's Knicks since Jackson's "posse" comment. So, yes, the water bottle was a greater challenge than the opponent.

And he was kind of psyched about it afterward:
