The anger came once people started to grab him and “hold him back”…and I get that. There was really no need for that. Stewart realized people expected a fight so he wanted to give it to them. A true entertainer. And yes Lebron hit him and should be suspended, but he won’t.
That was a dirty play by Lebron. He had no basketball play reason to swing his elbow like that. LEBRON AT HIS FLOPPING AGAIN. MAKE HIS ATTACK LOOK LIKE A FLOP. LEBRON DESERVES MULTIPLE DAYS OFF. Good acting skills though like he didnt mean to swing that elbow. (so he can rest his body) and fine him.
LeBron is a ***** and will always be one. I’ll never forget how he made Kobe’s death about himself. Seriously fu.ck LeBron
The Pool Report interview was conducted by James Edwards III (The Athletic) with Crew Chief Scott Foster following tonight’s Los Angeles Lakers at Detroit Pistons game. QUESTION: What was your interpretation of the contact between LeBron James and Isaiah Stewart? FOSTER: Upon the free throw the initial contact deemed a loose ball foul by Isaiah Stewart and then a dead ball act by LeBron James, deemed a Flagrant Foul Penalty 2 for unnecessary and excessive contact above the shoulder. QUESTION: Why was Russell Westbrook assessed a technical foul? FOSTER: During our review for an altercation we deemed him an escalator and not a peace maker. QUESTION: Why wasn’t Cory Joseph assessed a technical foul? FOSTER: After Isaiah Stewart left the court, Cory was anticipating he may come around the back of house and enter the Laker bench from the opposite side. So, he was going to intercept him. I actually told Cory that would be good. QUESTION: Was Isaiah Stewart’s second technical foul for charging back onto the court? FOSTER: Isaiah got two technical fouls for multiple unsportsmanlike acts during the altercation.
Stewart would have sacrificed a lot more throwing a punch. I completely understand why he held back. He’s trying to extend his NBA career.
Lol, these are professional athletes. Lebron is a 6'8" 250. Try taking one of those elbow and tell me it's weak.
It’s the blood that freaked Stewart out. Once he realized he’d been cut, he lost it which is why he didn’t swing in LBJ initially. For once I don’t think this cat was acting, there definitely would have been punches thrown had he got to LBJ again.
When your ****ing idol who could be your dad hits you with a cheap shot and you are bleeding from two places then anything goes IMO.
lebron James is a great guy , pretty good record for being in the lime light but this is not a basketball play.
Stewart faking going to the tunnel so he could turn around and make another charge at Lebron is like your typical pull apart brawl move in pro wrestling.
