Antonio knows whats up. cuz like NIK said, he travled already before that. so why wasnt it called until it was on the play that mattered? the difference between a win & a loss?its just wrong, it cant be inconsistant. i expect it to be called everytime he does something like this now...just cant be on and off. lmao so they should just go around not calling travels anymore?

^LOL...the refs supposedly aren't missing these calls on purpose. theyre missing it because theyre incompetent (according to them).
theres absolutely NO REASON lebron should get away with this, on ANY possession.
Quotetheres absolutely NO REASON lebron should get away with this, on ANY possession.That's exactly what i'm saying. It is a travel, plain and simple. But NBA refs should stop being hypocrities and they should call it from the first action to the last.
Cham and antonio. go watch the globe trotters or something if you dont want travels called.

^ The problem with that is the fact that players AREN'T conditioned to travel. LeBron might be used to getting away with it, but I highly doubt Mike Brown goes to LeBron during time-outs and says, "Hey LeBron, on this last play, I want you to drive to the basket. Feel free to travel, the refs probably won't call it." Especially considering that after the 2006 play-offs, all the sports programs were pointing out that LeBron got away with traveling. So if anything, I would think Bron would be under advisement to be more careful when it comes to traveling.Yes, LeBron has gotten away with it several times in his young career, including key moments such as in this particular game. Like several people already stated, that sure as fuck does not mean he should continue doing it. It just means he should praise the Lord that he didn't get caught, and STOP doing it. Now I do realize that the refs are to blame for LeBron's mentality when it comes to traveling, but can you guys just stop and think about what you're arguing for a second? You're literally justifying that players should get away with illegal moves just because they have in the past. That's like saying the refs should let Bruce Bowen get away with his dirty ass defense, considering that the reason he still does it is because he's gotten away with it in the past. Bottom line is that the Wizards never traveled on crucial plays against the Cavs, and Cavs should not be given a fuckin advantage in this department.
Anyways, if any travel was to be called now, you guys would probably complain how the refs are trigger-happy with the whistle and take the flow out of the game.
