I'd also like to point out that LeBron has built up enough bad call karma that he could get screwed every game for the rest of this postseason and it still wouldn't be even

So the one game in LeBron's life where he gets in serious foul trouble is a big deal? No. The guy gets enough calls. I'm not going to be worried about the one time he got in foul trouble.
 
The free throw differential, though. Really? 8? Granted, Miami seemed to be setting for jump shot after jump shot.

Except it changed the entire game. Indiana barely won a game that Lebron barely was in. Yes, Miami settled for jumpshot after jumpshot, because the one guy that attacks the basket wasn't allowed to play the game, because the refs wouldn't let him

Like come on. The first one was incidental contact, with George tripping over. Its barely a foul, but that one is fine to call. Second one, Lebron literally plays almost perfect defense, but gets called. Thats not a foul. The third one, George wasnt even close to being set for the charge; he leaned into Lebron. Thats BS. 4th one, he gets a hand on Hibbert as he's turning, and barely affects the shot. But thats a foul, despite it having no affect on the shot. The last one should have been a no call.
 
If Lebron James was, lets just say, Thabo Sefolosha, a likeable player, he does not have 5 fouls. He might even only have one called on him. But because its Lebron James, and it is in Indiana, they are going to call it. 
 

 
They called the foul here...on Battier?!! Last time I checked, you cant lower your shoulder and run through players in an NBA game
 
 
And this isn't just a few people that believed Lebron got jipped. They fact that almost everyone on this forum was expecting you to post about the refs, because you ALWAYS complain about poor ref calls, just goes to show how bad they were

Not sure why you're using that Battier .gif as an example. You have every right to go through him if he is randomly moving in front of you and not even close to set.

Idk why bosox said he and others expected BWare to complain about the refs, it's been his schtick all season to only complain when the side he's rooting for gets the short end

Bosox, did you really try to tell us that the Battier gif should have been a foul on George?
 
Battier pulled him to the ground. It was a clear attempt at trickery and the refs rightly didn't buy it.
 
I saw the second half of the fourth quarter or I could comment. I didn't even know 'Bron was in foul trouble until somebody mentioned it 3 hours after the game had already ended.
 
And let's be real, here. All NBA players who play 30-40 are going to get to that 4-6 foul range at some point during a season. It's inevitable, and more often than not there are 2-3 bullshit fouls in this 4-6. When was the last time you saw 6 legitimate fouls called on a player?

Thats not the point. You point out injustice with burning rage when it fits your narrative, and only your narrative.
