Flagrant foul on Lebron (Video)
 

Good catch by the official IMO. Lebron was fouled hard earlier a couple of times before this play.

Very good catch.

Peace

Good call.

I'd still like to see another angle though to see how much the elbow was outside of his natural motion.

Travel?

yep.......but it is one that is never called at this level

Probably because it's not actually a travel at that level.

What's the nba travel difference by rule?

He caught it with his right foot on the floor. Then went left, right, left. I thought (in the book) that would be a travel at any level.

Well given that 1) the officials are not as strict as you on when the "gather" has taken place, and 2) the NBA rule allows "two steps", this could easily be not traveling.

Only saw the SportsCenter highlights of this game. I did not watch it.
There is no doubt in my mind that Lebron purposely led with his elbow as he was upset with the earlier hard fouls that he had received.
That said, the officials need to eject any player, even the league's MVP and star, who resorts to dangerous tactics such as this.

I want to know what the Lead was thinking. He had a whistle and put his arm up extra strong, but deferred to Monty in the Slot.

Jeremy you figured it out !!!!
 

Guess you realized that if you were going to post videos, the you should post NBA videos, as the quality and clarity are much better than some of those ms videos you were posting last week......

That's right bc if it ain't in 1080p there is no way anyone could learn from the conversation. ;)

If this is a HS game, after Hibbert gets up with help from teammates and then falls back down, do you have him removed and evaluated for a concussion?

I did in a HS game this year.
