While I can see a no call on Lebron, I don't see that a call is wrong with the way he came into the play....he didn't have LGP and was not in Melo's path at any time. Often that play is passed on, but technically, bainsey is correct.

and maybe this is what the nba ref saw as i recall he comes across the lane, pivots and it appears his head and eyes picks up the secondary defender and he refs that player's actions. i am not sure all the good points on how to ref above the rim are correct on this particular play. melo grabbing the rim definitely changed just how far he would have been moved from his planned path. even with the grab of the rim, he is displaced a fair amount from intended path in my view. it would be nice to know how this play was graded by the nba. any chance one of you guys can find out?
