the cavs lost this game themselves, but ya got away with bloody murder..

That was a foul, but at that point in the game, I don't think the refs will call it unless they are 100% sure that it's the right call. At full speed, it looked borderline between the act of shooting and on the floor. In a way, they did the Cavs a favor because if they call that on the floor, they don't get a chance for the 3 anyway.

Deal with it. It's the name of the game.

I agree it was a foul, agree it was a continuation, but based on the history of fouls called in that situation, I think the nocall was the right call. They don't call it for anyone else.....why for a 22 year old "King" who has yet to prove anything his entire career?

Correction 1 guy gets that call and thats D-Wade

A total of 31 FTA.... thats less than Dallas got in the stolen win over GS!! Funny.

Good take. The refs swallowed their whistles when Duncan got hacked by Varejao, why would Lebron get the benefit of zebra charity?

That was the past season if i remember correctly, and that was a BS call if there was one

At least Lebron ain't crying at the presser.

He has at least a little bit of class.

ya youve gotta give it up to Lebron he isnt a whinner on or off the court

He couldn't knock down the shot even after having time to face up and let it fly. No charity for the big man in that spot.

3-0.

Bruce got real lucky, because that foul could have been as bad as Manu's on Dirk last year.

I don't think so, he had already dribbled once, he wouldn't have been able to put both hands on the ball and attempt a shot if you call the foul because he fouled his off arm while he didn't have the ball in both hands...

LeBron just maned-up and said Incidental Contact with Bowen.

Lebron James just said It Was INCIDENTAL contact in his Post Game Interview. Said it did not affect his shot.

Lebron James Is A Class Act, Not A Whiner.

LeBron was very classy during the post-game press conference. Said himself that he had a good look at that last shot. Gave props to Pop and the Spurs.

Dumb play by Bruce.

LeBron in the post game interview was all class. Said he just missed it and it was incidental contact. I have a lot of respect the way he's handled himself making no excuses.

Nah, Bruce either tried to see if he could get away with a foul, or foul so they couldn't get the three, that wasn't incidental...

Props to Lebron. He manned up and didnt whine. He gave props to his opponenet. Lebron has the attitude a star should take.

Yeah, it didn't look like it did much to his shot. It definitely wasn't incidental contact though. James just has enough balls to not cry to the refs. LeBron's too athletic a guy to give the intentional foul.. I mean, look how easy he got that shot off after Bruce almost had him wrapped up.

Damn, it's hard to hate this "King" who says all the things a Spur would say when he's talking to the media.
I keep expecting him to act Kobe-esque, but he really is alot different.

Not a shock that you're continuing to be a worthless piece of shit to the Spurs but can you come up with new shit?

I mean, actually bring something to this board rather then trying to bring it down?

If they had called that foul it would've been before the shot so no free throws. no chance.

All credit and props to LeBron for this press conference. I can't really hate him, and don't think he's as arrogant as he is young. What a great player to have on your team, both morale and talent wise. Too bad he is not a Spur.

1. Lebron said it wasn't a foul.
2. The refs had a bad night across the board
3. The ESPN guys keep talking about the foul so they get more people on the bus
4. Don't think the Cavs lost the game on that play
5. Whatever
