Flagrant on Lebron......
LeBron James' flagrant on Carlos Boozer proves costly
Yes? No? Maybe so? Oh yeah, and he rips the refs.......shocker. From one of the articles: "The way I've been explained is, it's balance, speed, rhythm, quickness," Battier said. "A foul is any time balance, speed, rhythm and quickness is disrupted. LeBron's the strongest guy in the league with the ball. So from far away, it doesn't look like his balance, speed, rhythm and quickness is really affected. "So I think defenders get more benefit of the doubt against him than the rules dictate."

Taj Gibson fouls LeBron pretty hard at 0:45 of the video on this page. Can someone explain to my why this was not called a Flagrant 1 foul?

While I don't watch much NBA, I thought this to be a very physical game.

Sure. Red 22 fouled Black 6 on the arm first, attempting to swat the ball. B6 was then fouled across the face by Red 21, whose contact was excessive/unecessary. Not only did R21 foul B6 across the face, R21's hand across the neck caused B6 to be pulled down from behind.
If not a flagrant, definitely a technical. |

Two, this wouldn't be grounds for a technical foul in the NBA...that contact would not be considered unsporting. And since the ball was still technically live (as the player was clearly in the act of shooting), you wouldn't call a technical foul for dead ball contact that is NFHS: intentional or flagrant. My guess, there was no wind up, no hard or significant impact, and not enough of a follow through to warrant a flagrant foul penalty one.

FYI, LeBron James's foul was upheld as a flagrant foul penalty one and Taj Gibson's contact was not upgraded to a flagrant foul by the league.

I assume you meant the one where he looked at the screen then rammed into it on purpose.

That was what the thread was initially about.

I thought so but there were at least 3 different plays being discussed IIRC.
