Just to be more specific for the NBA citation:
A flagrant foul penalty 1 is a foul that has unnecessary contact. A flagrant foul penalty two is a foul with unnecessary and excessive contact. Neither of these plays would fit that criteria.
Unlike NFHS/NCAA, if this had been called a flagrant foul (on a made basket), LeBron would have had a 2 to make 1 scenario...make the first free throw, ball side out.
The only other type of foul that could have come into play was a clear path foul, but since LeBron was in the act of shooting, clear path rules do not apply.

Only the ladder is real. The climb is all there is.
