Lebron complains about physicality and lack of fouls

Hinrich wrapped up Lebron with both arms and pulled him to the ground. How is that not a tackle?

 

Harden is an elite flopper bro.

 

He wrapped him up thinking he would stop but then Lebron ran him over, it was nobodies fault.

 

He's just venting his anger since the streak ended. These fouls weren't even that serious, especially for someone as imposing as himself. This is exactly how you beat the Heat, getting physical with them. It's not for no reason that people seem to believe that Indiana has probably the best chance in the east to upset the champs. Chicago did exactly this and boom, streak over.

 

Hinrich tackled him plain and simple. That play by Hinrich is not a "basketball play"- should be a flagrant foul and suspension.

 

Lebron tried to bulldozed Hinrich. He had to hold onto him for dear life.

 

Hold up, brah. Your boy Kobe LITERALLY GOT AWAY WITH RAPE. We talkin' bout fouls?!?!?! /thread

 

HAHAHAHAHA, WINNER! ^

Oh Lebron shut the **** up and just play. Boo hoo your streak ended, get over it.

 

Get off Kobe's dick you ****ing ****. Nobody here cares about that ego maniacal rapist.
You are the most annoying bandwagoning Fakers fan on this board. Go to Lakersground and jack off to Kobe there.

Its hard to like or respect a player when their fans are this annoying. I hated LeBron for an instance because of SacTown's LeBron dickriding as well.

 

People say this, but at the time no one said, "Gee, this is fun basketball, I wish more teams played like these teams."

That **** was borderline unwatchable.

 

You should probably stop paying so much attention to fans of players on message boards and decide on your own if you like a player or not.

Neither foul was flagrant. Both just hard fouls to stop the play.
Kirk Hinrich wrapped him up because he knew the ref wasn't going to give him the call. And Gibsons simply stopped his shot and the bodys hit and they made body contact... I just don't see the problem with either play.

I have seen far worse no calls than either of those plays.

Lebron (and miami) are just sore that they lost that game, they lost their streak.

And I know that its gone and past but, I miss 90's style basketball, even early 00's. The blood, the drama, trash talk, in your face attitudes.
Now the L has turned into Tampons, Reality TV Drama, looking pretty for cameras.

 

How do you tackle someone when your falling down and they are facing you?

He wrapped him up on his way down to stop his shot .
They was no tackle. Sorry.

 

Lol, even better! ^

 

bulls played physical defense. No flagrants. They just didn't hand things to Lebron on a platter.

 

Lebron is just pissed that the streak was ending. Those 2 fouls weren't flagrant whatsoever. I'm glad the refs had the balls not to gift wrapped anything to Lebron. For a guy who frequently bulldozes his way to the rim, there's very little reason for any complaining.

 

Very easily. You hold onto them and bring them down with you. If you saw Hinrich's tackle, it was a perfect demonstration.

It was an obvious tackle, and Hinrich's intent to stop Lebron's shot doesn't change the fact that it was an obvious tackle.

 

Yes clearly Hinrich was the one doing the tackling when Lebron is charging at him shoulder first If he hadn't wrapped him up there the fall might have been a lot worse for both of them.
