Thought it was bit ticky-tack to foul someone out on that play (noty just Lebron) but appears it was not a horrendous ..call
Another Harlem fail post tbh ... but I admit on first viewing I thought a pretty weak call.

Probably the worst ref'd game i've seen since Game 6 WCF 2012.
No arguments on LeBron's 6th but the shot clock violation on Indy and Wade's travel were the funniest calls of the playoffs so far tbh.
here's the foul
it was a clear foul.
I think it WAS a travel but just weird they called it then when they let so many go on both sides all series (stephenson, Hibbert, Lebron, Wade Bosh) so many guys have been travelling with no call ...
I can't think of a star perimeter player in the last 20 years who hasn't used that stepback move to hit a gamewinner.
It's probably a travel, but this is the NBA.
I just thought it was hilarious that they called it on a got like Wade tbh.
Not to mention the terrible call on Wade's travel that negated a Battier 3 that would have cut the lead to 1
If you call that a travel, NBA teams would average 70 points per game, since you could call that on every other play..
I just watched a series where Andrew Bogut committed illegal screens all game, every game, yet he was called for 1, maybe 2 screens all series..
There's no way you make that call with a minute left in game 4 of the CFs, tbh..
Textbook moving screen, tbh. Could be on http://www.nba.com/videorulebook/
it was a clear foul.
How was it not a travel?
He came off the screen, planted, pump faked, picked up his dribble and took a few more steps
It just looked awkward and slow, tbh..you can call travel every other play in the NBA..
For instance, travel or not?..initial view is travel, but I'm not sure, tbh..
i said it was a bad call at first, just trying to be fair to both sides. but watching it again, Joey C had it right. Lebron probably figured with his stature in the league he'd get away with it, and tbh, normally he would. But it backfired.
tbh it doesnt matter if you're a heat/lebron hater, that 6th foul against lebron was laughable to say the least...
if they call that foul on every big man who sets picks, everyone would foul out in the first 2 mins of the first quarter
yup just saw a close pic.
All things considered, it's one of the 3 biggest names in NBA history, it's a key game in the conference finals, and he fouls out on a phantom foul ON A SCREEN?..
Arguably the worst call in NBA history, tbh..
Lebron's 4th, 5th and 6th fouls were all poor calls, especially #6..
Embarrassing, tbh..
Just saw this, thats clearly a foul. Stop whining.
you can't set picks with your foot out to trip someone.
Moved his pivot foot, thats a call you learn to call in Kindergarten.Not to mention the terrible call on Wade's travel that negated a Battier 3 that would have cut the lead to 1

This. It wasn't an egregious foul and it's not a call you make to foul out Lebron James. His 5th foul was just stupid.
Same with the Wade travel -- Bean, Harden, young Wade, Lebron and every other superstar all make that stepback. Wade never should have called Stern out during that CBA mtg.
Anyways, is what it is.
Can the Conspiracy theorists take a nap now? Lebron James fouls out in game 4 of the ECF but Stern is still is rigging this for the Heat..
^^^This. The LeBron haters are so annoying. So much jealousy that they never have a good take. It's all biased nonsense.
The 6th foul on LeBron was one of the worst calls all season. I thought it was classy of him not to go nuts.
Stern saves his labor for Laker series. David Stern is more responsible for Laker successes than Shaquille, Bryant, Jerry Buss, and Jerry West combined.
At first I thought it was a weak foul call, but after watching several replays I had to change my mind. James tried setting a screen, but he didn't have any body on it. He essentially tripped Stephenson. Not really a bad call.
like this is why I hate when Manu is one of the first ones that comes to people's minds when talking about flops. Manu sells contact that actually happens, many guys in the NBA (not saying Lebron is one just for one play) try to cheat the refs.IMO Joey Crawford got sick of this all game:
you don't with Joey
Probably it's because Manu is notorious for doing it more consistently than 99% of other players.
All players flop, but he does it far more than most.
