Already got used to it in his second year...
"superstar" treatment. For me not travelling is THE problem but the ghost calls.. those are a really big big problem for the opposing team(mavs heat series speaks volumes)
Why you hating on him? The ref was the dumbass that missed it.
The play was laughable but i would not call him overrated
Once Bryant busted that Colorado girl's goober James was all they had/have.
Also 2/3 comentators agreed with the call.
Only Mike Fratello said that was a completely blown call.
I'm extremely surprised that there was't a foul call on the last play of the game last night.
Some would argue that the Donaghy effect permeates.....
son that is BS and you know it ... the refs always see it whenever James travels or fouls someone, they just simply won't call it because he is a superstar.
That was a blatant miss...the ref was staring right at lebron's backside and was probably distracted by it. But this is old news...
to borrow a line...its really a non-issue
Next thing you know, they'll allow 4 dribbles before a travelling violation is called
Shut the up...
While Bryant's busy bustin the goober, your busy stuffin the pooper! Ghazi's pooper. Secret's out!
Yeah I know, superstar call, they still do call travels on him in big moments, but hey this will be another 10 seconds on the LeBron compilation of travels on youtube.
In other news, may Shinn sell the franchise so he can survive his bout with cancer, maybe you will get an owner wanting to win.
Oh, there was mud everywhere, Jazzy!
tee, hee.
All you had to do was win and I woulda stayed outta here. But, you couldn't close the deal, daddy-O.
didnt the nba say they were changing the travel rules?
NBA says traveling rule unchanged
ESPN.com news services
NEW YORK -- The NBA denied Friday that it has changed its rule on traveling.
Stu Jackson, the league's executive vice president of basketball operations, said recent media reports that the rule had been changed to allow an extra step after the dribble were not true.
"We have not changed the traveling rule, nor how we enforce the rule," Jackson said Friday during the league's annual preseason conference call. "What we did change was some antiquated language in our existing rule as it related to steps."
The section of the NBA rulebook dealing with traveling used to allow players to "use a two-count rhythm in coming to a stop." It was reworded this season to say players "may take two steps in coming to a stop, passing or shooting the ball."
In March, NBA vice president of referee operations Joe Borgia told ESPN True Hoop's Henry Abbott that referees had long been instructed to ignore the rulebook on this point and allow two steps.
On a conference call with reporters earlier this month, Jackson told Abbott: "Based on Joe's comments, when you had a conversation with Joe, we did in fact tweak the language on traveling in this year's book."
