    Numbers one and two looked like obvious travels to me. Similar to how Manu squeezes three steps out of a single dribble. Lots of guys do it, but it's still technically a travel according to the actual rules.

    Remember when Lebron got called for travelling on just about every dunk he attempted at his first olympics? It was like he couldn't comprehend what was going on. The fact that travelling was actually being enforced was a totally new, foreign experience to him.

    If you can get away with it, more power to you.

    Ditto!
    NBA does not have much different rules regarding traveling, but NBA referees are reluctant to call it on Lebronze.
    I have been watching NBA for 20 years and I have not seen any other single player traveling as often as Lebronze.

    Dunk #1 was spectacular, can't believe I haven't seen it before.

    It still doesn't compare to the AI "crossover" that he had when he came into the league. The Harlem Globe Trotters and team And1 were calling carry on that move.

    That's real. If you want to see a real crossover, check my man Timbo.. Tim Hardaway. He was the real crossover king.

    Lebron must have pick up some tricks from tony parker during last years finals.
    I counted a couple 4 steps lay-ups.....

    They can't accept there is another player who is a better individual player and better team player. At least Kobe used to have the individual title on that way to his 1st round playoff exits, now he doesn't even have that.

    I love how people use "LeBronze" to demean LeBron James even though he was 19 at the time and was far from the only person playing on that team. Let's just call Kobe "airball" since he was airballing jumpers against the jazz when he was 19, that's perfectly relevant. :rolleyes:

    That's why he was my second favorite player growing up.
