Easy answer: Commit six fouls in a playoff game for the first time in his career. Since he never did it before, I guess that he didn't understand the rule. Maybe he thought the rule for disqualification was different in a playoff game, as opposed to a regular season game. That's certainly understandable. But, you would think that a college graduate, like James, would understand the mathematics involved. Wait a minute? Never mind.


"The King" has fouled out before. He led his H.S. team to state championship as a sophomore and a junior. His team was playing for its 3rd straight state championship when they lost in the title game a LeBron fouled out in that game too. His last three fouls were charges where he used absolutely no basketball sense and just ran over defenders and then couldn't believe he was called for a charge.
