Lebron

Is it just me, or is ESPN going over the top on asking why James did not get the call last night? He was not fouled ... anyone else see this?

Got a link? I must have missed that part of SC this morning.

Saw the play...could have gone either way. One angle showed Noah as vertical, another showed him as not vertical. Tough play to call, but I'm surprised nothing was called. It is LeBron after all (ugh)

They probably would have called it if he didn't lose the ball, he did that on his own. Hey, it's the NBA, I have no idea how they call a game

I was mainly wondering if that last Bulls shot hit the rim. ESPN said it did but I couldn't tell. Guess that isn't reviewable which probably is a good thing.

Jordan would have gotten the call. But seriously, Lebron needs to look up how Jordan did those plays because he didn't take a good angle or put himself in a better position to make a shot or get fouled.

The replay looked pretty clear to me. It definitly hit the rim, and I wasn't even watching on HD.

I just checked out the highlight on ESPN and it was clearly a great no call. One of those that sometimes, to the shagrin of us lower level officials, are called for the superstars in the NBA. Perhaps the NBA is turning a new leaf in light of the Donaghy allegation crap?

Maybe it was a "crab foul"?
