You got him confused with Ali .
Correct, thanks Ali was the shooter at UNI. MD played at St Mary's as noted above.

It actually was funny watching how the undrafted overachieving kid from the land handled the MVP. Not saying he can do it consistently or even again, but tonight, a hoot and a work of art.
I looked at the title for this thread and I thought, "I agree. What a winner LeBron is." That would have made sense.
Seems like the whiner is the person who started the thread. LeBron is the king. He should be getting each and every borderline call, just as Jordan and Kobe once did. He proved his greatness last night.
The thing is, Lebron almost always gets those calls. Melo, Dwight, Griffin...other players who bully ball there way into the lane have calls like that missed every game. This is why it's frustrating when he complains every. single. time. There was a period of time in Game 2 when Lebron was literally getting calls because a Warrior breathed on him, although the 2 missed calls at the end of the game were absurdly bad.No player should get every call. I hate when people say that. Officials should call the game as is. That being said there were a few borderline calls that went against Lebron last night. I know everyone was yelling about one specific play where Iggy just crushed Lebron, but Lebron did travel before he was hacked so I wouldn't of called it either.

Green fouled on the jump. But it's so rare I can see why it was missed.
Igoudala absolutely fouled. If you call the blatant travel tho it's moot. Ball don't lie.
And can we talk about mozgov? He's on a bus everytime he catches it.
The thing with Green is he had already done it like 5 minutes earlier, it just makes it look worse.
People can go back and forth, but it sure seems to me that Lebron, because of his size, takes a ton of contact that isn't called. But my guess is that whatever you think, either way, you aren't gonna change your mind.

Oh I'm right there with you. He's a physically gifted, once in a lifetime talent. It's remarkable.
But let's not pretend james doesn't also foul. What was it...he didn't pick up like 4 fouls in a game for like months? Something weird like that. Anyone remember this stat?
Last night was physical both ways.
oh, come on RF - you are better than that. That just lends weight to HakAttack's designation of you as a whiner.I know that Lebron fans tend to be more feeble minded than most, but I figured that the seven pages of commentary constituting this thread might have given that indication.

apology not accepted then, I take it?Better to be casually labeled a whiner by some misinformed poster than to be casually labeled a racist just because one doesn't happen to root for a specific player. Right Moqui?
That is a crazy stat! Wow..It's like trying to ref Shaq. He got fouled every time he had the ball, but his size was so immense, it didn't get called much.
Bron is the same way, Karl Malone but with elite athleticism and vision. How do you ref that? He's a guy that basically is a new position, power guard, that we have never seen before.
One note, Scott Foster, who reffed last night, has now had the home team lose in 14 straight games he has reffed, I believe. Not saying anything is crooked, but the whole crew last night was terrible.
