Man watching the Heat-Knicks and watching Lebron flop on both ends of the court and continually getting the calls is bogus...

Guys 6-8 and built like a truck and yet he gets the smallest bump and hes on the floor....then when hes bumping guys on the defensive end no call....

NBA officials obviously have marching orders...let the stars play!!!!

Well you have the two most preferentially officiated players in NBA history on the same team. Wade's "title" was given to him in a manner where it was a foul to look at Wade. Wade's "shot blocking" is really wade pushing and clawing with one hand and blocking a shot with another. Everybody knows about LeBron being allowed to push off at all times and take nine steps.

This is representative of the entire league, not just Lebron.

Lebron absolutely flopped on the first one...NOT the second one. Chandler lunged at him as he was moving backwards that's just what happens. As far as offense...It's called a charge and he's damn good at taking those! I agree he gets more calls than a most but he's a great player and great players get fouled!

My reason for hating the NBA is Jeff Van Gundy...get that man off the air!

I love how Derek Fisher is traded and then just doesn't bother to show up

So Houston has to buy him out for not playing one game for the Rockets and D-Fish strolls over to the Thunder.

This is a reason why only a handful of teams even have a chance to win. The Association is a joke

You can't tell me BronBron didn't put any acting into that 2nd one!

The best way to handle all of this: do what I have done and not watch a single second of nba play all season. And I won't watch a single second of the playoffs either. You have to understand, I'm an absolute sports addict - I will watch almost anything, but I will not watch the NBA. It's just awful.

Watch the NHL playoffs instead. This year has been one of the best playoffs in recent memory. 3 game 7's in round 1; 2 of them going to overtime. Awesome stuff.

The Chandler one was a hard foul, by no means a flagrant.

LeBron rolled around in pain and agony grabbing his head when his head never hit a thing.

I hate both these teams so it pains me to defend NYN but that was the weakest flagrant foul I've seen in my life by a mile, VanGundy couldn't believe it as well.

The initial reaction to the screen was fine but then he threw the aftershock reaction and flailed his arms around and then ran around crying like a little baby.

He was grabbing his head and nothing remotely came close to his head in the whole play. I really hope no soccer bashers are LeBron fans, the entire EPL complains to the refs less than LeBron does in one game.
