Wait, what? I'm talking about your penchant for bringing up Kobe in non Kobe related conversations. I get you like to troll ... The Blake comment was specific because CN (and others) argued that a call should not of been made ... to allow the player to decide the game. I did not mention Blake per se to mention Griffin but a situation. You throw out Kobe's name often when a criticism is leveled about another player ...
Look it doesnt bother me ... I get you DPG, you my dogg your fueding with Cully notwithstanding ...I just like to call people out on . And the folks that throw out Kobe anytime a legit criticism is placed on James is a target of mine. I Recall me saying in a GT that Lebron just took a bad shot ...and folks throwing out well What about Kobe? or pointing out James overall numbers. What does that have to do with anything a bad shot is still a bad shot. ...period. Dude is great one of the best I have seen but he is not without fault and Kobe has nothing to do with him ...there is large age gap and they play so diffrently dont even get why they are often compared ... tough to compare Lebron to anyone tbh ...Shaq is probably closest but he works harder than O'neal both have similar mind-sets though ...

so you're saying lebron gets unfair treatment from the refs? how many games in a row did he go without having a foul called on him?
LeBron ran straight into him. Typical LeBron drive tbh. Dude has no finesse to his game, just tries to run people over. Jordan would've slipped past Hinrich like he wasn't even there.
yeah the Lebron foul on Booz was a technical. not sure why it was called flagrant. it's a weird league we are living in.
He didn't say he wanted them to be flagrant fouls. He said they're not basketball plays, and he's right.
MJ got coddled by the officials more than LeBron does, tbh.
I think you have the mind of a 12 year old, looking at a re ed, emotional reply like this, without you even getting your facts straight.
That's at least the 2nd reference to a "12 year old" this morning.
tee, hee.
so now wrapping someone up to prevent a layup is not a basketball play? since when?
He needs to understand hard fouls are the only way to make sure he doesn't get an and-1, since he's so big and strong anything less just won't do much good when he's attacking the rim. If he wants the hard fouls to stop all he has to do is quit HGH or whatever else he takes, tbh.
Again, his complaint is that there's a double-standard..
Boozer is one of the strongest players in the NBA..calling a flagrant on Lebron for running into him, yet not calling a flagrant on Taj Gibson for clotheslining Lebron is a terrible double-standard..
Lebron hasn't complained about fouls at any point all season..there's a reason that this is the first time he has mentioned it..
Dwight Howard, for instance, receives even worse treatment, except he has complained several times this season..
Difference is Taj arguably went for the ball. Lebron clearly didn't.
IMO Taj's is just a hard foul and Lebron's is a tech. But I'll give the benefit of the doubt to the 4 refs that reviewed both plays.
Since they ins uted rules specifically to outlaw that. Players were being hurt in such plays, and that's why the rule was created. A Flagrant 1 doesn't even need to involve violence at all, just "unnecessary and/or excessive contact".
Now, you could argue the NBA has been sissified since those rules were put into effect, and that's fine. But the rules are there and they're supposed to be followed.
And Harlem is right. The double-standard on these calls are terrible. If Hinrich got hacked the way Lebron or Dwight get hacked, it would be an immediate flagrant 2 and ejection.
Of course you didn't.... but the fact that Kirby committed an offensive foul on that play means he was whining AND being a hypocrite, tbh....
A tech foul is any infraction of the rules penalized as a foul which does not involve physical contact during the course of play between opposing players on the court..
It was a flagrant because there was contact... tech fouls can't be called on physical plays
then why do people get technicals for shoving each other, and double techs when they get all locked up when "fighting" for rebounds, when its just a bunch of pushing and dirty tactics?
just the nba making up rules.. a real tech foul has nothing to do with anything physical
oh okay, so in other words, Lebron's shoulder push didn't necessarily warrant a flagrant, as opposed to a tech.
thanks for telling us what we already know![]()
Got a link to nba outlawing wrapping a player up?

Specifically:
2. Whether or not the player was making a legitimate basketball play (e.g., whether a player is making a legitimate effort to block a shot; note, however, that a foul committed during a block attempt can still be considered flagrant if other criteria are present such as recklessness and hard contact to the head);
4. The potential for injury resulting from contact (e.g., a blow to the head and a foul committed while a player is in a vulnerable position);
All that said, the actual real criteria is anyone's guess... I mean Wade got suspended for this play:

I didn't watch it. Unlike you I don't plagiarize everything I say.
The real Dale wouldn't pursue such innuendo as it's gotten him sent to the hurt locker by her.
kinda agree with the OP. bron is a great player but he ain't the exact kind of person everyone wants to make friend with. he ain't a whining or something like paul & monkeyball but he's still 2-3 classes below the likes of dirk and duncan in terms of demeanor tbh
