Johnson gave reporters a breakdown of how he thinks he’s matching up with the four-time MVP following Cleveland’s 107-90 victory Wednesday.

“I’m definitely in his head,” Johnson said,  via ESPN.com. “That’s for sure.”

The 19-year-old rookie from Arizona earned big praise for his defense on James in Game 1 win, getting physical with James and making him work on the offensive end.

Things didn’t go so well for Johnson on Wednesday, as James scored 15 points with Johnson as his primary defender. 

Johnson doesn’t appear to be fazed. “He’s going to have to strap his shoes in every night tight because I’m going to strap my shoes in every night tight,” he said.

You have to admire the kid’s self-confidence. But in the grand scheme of things, him thinking he’s in LeBron James’ head is about as ridiculous as Smokey’s “mind control” over Deebo in the movie “Friday.”
