LeBron was fouled and should have gone to the line for three free throws. The refs didn't call it and now the Cavs are in an almost impossible hole.
Who wouldn't be mad at the no call?
I'd be devastated honestly.

So were the Jazz the only team that didn't bitch when they got beat?

i think you can go either way about whether it affected his shot. i know he said it didn't, but it seems like he'ss fading partly to separate from bowen.
Re: Lebron changed his tune today - said there was contact at the end of the game
if it wasn't obvious to you that Bowen was trying to foul him before he took the shot, you better get your eyes checked, seriously. Whats Lebron supposed to say? That there wasn't ANY contact? doubt it, because there was contact

John Hollinger: (4:08 PM ET ) It's possible Bob Delaney decided to ignore the foul and let LeBron shoot the 3, since by calling the foul -- if he ruled it was on the floor -- he would have essentially handed San Antonio the win. By the way, the odds of LeBron making all three foul shots were about 34%.
Thats Hollingers response to the contact question, any opinions?

Game 4?
Re: Lebron changed his tune today - said there was contact at the end of the game
Much less contact is called a foul on the perimeter all the time in the NBA.
As to LeBron's comments today- he was just answering the question posed to him. What did you expect them to ask about today?

you forgot to add that he would proceeded to miss 2 of those free throws.
in all honesty I seen replays and replays and I do not see contact. Yes Bruce tried to foul, but Bronze moved away and Bowen's left hand did not contact.
Re: Lebron changed his tune today - said there was contact at the end of the game
not sure if this has been said since i don't feel like reading everyones post, but lebron never said there wasn't contact in the first place, what he did say was that it was accidental contact and that it didn't change his shot............... so he never said he didn't get touched by bowen............

Did I? Hell yeah. We got robbed. We'd have lost anyway (most likely), but even you can't say it was a completely fair game. Either way, Spurs are the better team.

god, please. if you can't see that contact you shouldn't be driving. it's irrelevant though, the game is over.
Re: Lebron changed his tune today - said there was contact at the end of the game
I don't know if it's weirder that someone started a thread about this or that it got this many responses ...
LeBron saying there was contact today in interviews doesn't even contradict what he was saying last night after the game. I don't see how he changed his tune.
Shit, if I were LeBron I would have bitched about it being a foul and deserving 3 free throws on the play. Fuck being classy. It's about winning. Ask Robert Horry if he cares about being classy. Who remembers classy losers? Fuck that. A poor sportsman of a winner is still a winner. I can call Bruce Bowen dirty or Robert Horry a punk or Tim Duncan boring. But, I can't call them losers.
That's the thing.
