Personal request, can we please not call him "the messiah"? Thanks in advance.

Sorry.  My boss calls him the primadonna.  I'll copy him.  Although, in Stern's mind, I think the m-word is more appropot.

 lebron got every call down the stretch other than the travel...as usual the queen was dramatic when getting fouled...but the cavs were the cavs...late in the game they all stood around watching james or they all jacked up threes...they have no depth when side show bob starts for Z....JJ Hickson isn't the answer when andy goes to the bench

just interesting to see cleveland lose to miami and then to the wiz on the road...if boston gets home court i don't see them winning in boston either....boston made the wiz look like high schoolers friday..the cavs lose to them...that to me a a worse loss than to the warriors

No worries, I prefer the queen.

Just an FYI....Lebron also travelled on the previous two drives to the basket in crunch time and the referees, as is usually the case, put their whistles in their pocket!!

1 for 3 in baseball is great but still unacceptable in basketball, in spite of that last call.

The NBA's Drama Queen is his new handle.

With the Drama Queen,  1 for 100 would be amazing.

lebron is asking that the league look into it and claims it was a perfectly legal play.  He's still complaining about it.

I was actually going to make this exact topic. FINALLY someone calls him for his traveling. This quote was quite funny and made me laugh:

Quote
"I definitely knew he traveled, but I didn't know they were going to call it," Butler said about what happened Sunday. "That was one of them situations in which a great player made a move, good officiating, and they called the call. And I was like, 'Oh, man, there is a God.' "

Become Legendary.

I like the headline over at Sportsline, "Walk Of Shame".

I just saw the video on ESPN.  The best was the interview after where James said it was a bad call.  He said he saw the video and it was a bad call.  What video is he watching? 

He said he took a "crab" dribble and then took two steps.  James officially can't count to three then.

Thanks for one more reason for me to hate LeBron.

the best was the look on his face after he saw what the call was.  A dumbfounded "You didnt get the memo?" look.
