    Default Damn, how does Lebron get away with all these blatant travels?

    I know refs let stars get away with things more than other players. Yes, MJ got away with shit, too. So did Magic, so did Bird, so did Barkley, Ewing, etc.

    But shit, these travels that Bron gets away with are ridiculous.

    I think pauk should be spending his time on a Lebron travel compilation than a mythical MJ flop compilation.

    He does what he can get away with, like every great player.

    Worst traveler and flopper in recent history.

    Stern made sure he gets away with it and obviously Silver adopted that.

    Refs and the League are in awe of his footwork

    Bo really it`s annoying. I remember back in the day (2006 iirc) when he hit a game winner vs Wiz after the most blatant travel ever, made me quit watchling NBA for several years.

    To me that is rigging results. There was just no way the League was going to let the Wiz win that game. And I can`t live with that BS.

    NBA needs to get it`s act together.

    Doesn't every player get away with these? It's not like the referees saw it and decide "hey, he's Lebron James I'm gonna let him travel." They just don't see it because it's very fast and there's a lot of things to look at in 48 minutes of the game.

    Lebrons combination of length and thickness is crazy. It makes it very hard to ref him. Hes long and very meaty, so its difficult to determine if the moves he puts on people are even legal. Its impressive either way, his sheer size and the way hes able to thrust that size toward the rim from just about anywhere.

    The nba is a business it can't embarrass its designated face. They've invested to much in the hype

    The NBA should be indicted for fraud and Silver and Stern should go to jail for 20+ years.

    Lebron and the NBA has made a mockery of the game.

    He does, but every great gets away with something. Nothing new here. I remember when I 1st noticed it though. When he was in his 1st go round with the cavs, if he drove into contact and got the whistle it seemed like he'd take an extra step to get stable and attempt the and 1. One of those "cagey" veteran moves?

    You're 'apparently' watching 150 MJ videos just to prove MJ flops, purely because everyone calls LeBron a flop.....and you wanna talk bout other posters 'butthurtedness'

    I used to get mad when MJ got the superstar calls, but it's even worse today than ever. Lebron constantly travels and people know this but they still allow it. It's awful and embarrassing. For the real or purist fan this is an insult to the game. To the low I.Q. casual fan that only cares about dunks and wants to be entertained they love this. Just ban traveling all together or call it like you're suppose to.
