thats the point he didnt travel. and every single one of this guys posts is about how lebron does this wrong or how he did that at some point you gotta show respect stop trying to hate on thr mans game so much

 

[illoquent aka dsk]

I wish I was doing coke instead of reading this thread.

You win.

What? Flacco got praised for finally stepping up and got a contract fatter than Raven Simone. But let's not talk about that game

 

[shoelyesses]

The lebron haters watch more highlight tapes on lebron trying to figure out **** he does wrong in the game and bash him on it. It's not a travel people just wanna think of a way to discredit him.

the sad thing is if that same amount of research and energy was devoted to actually understanding, gaining knowledge of the game, they might could possibly contribute to coversations/threads about basketball

The ball doesn't have to touch the floor, just has to be out of his hand. If you're going to bust out the video evidence 24 hours after the fact, at least know the rule.

actually, he established his LEFT foot after he catches the ball

you can see him sliding his right foot already while his left foot is the pivot or anchor

then he moves his pivot before he even lets go off the ball to dribble.

Then he takes 3 steps after he actually dribbles. The last step is a semi 2 step jump which almost makes it 4 steps. You must be blind.

He took 5 steps and dribbled once during that whole sequence.

its a travel, some of you need to stop

I am not even discussing Kobe and I never said he did not travel. He has had plenty of blatant travels in his career but it is not his actual go to/signature move.
Why do you get so mad if I criticize a player? I do it even to Kobe and everyone on the Lakers team in the Lakers thread. Even fellow Laker fans catch feelings when I hate on Laker players.

I will never give any respect to Lebron.

If t heat win in 4 its been fixed

 

[big j 33]

That wasn't a travel.

He established his right foot as his pivot when he first caught the ball and then moves it before the ball touches the floor.

The ball doesn't have to touch the floor, just has to be out of his hand. If you're going to bust out the video evidence 24 hours after the fact, at least know the rule.

actually, he established his LEFT foot after he catches the ball

How convenient

 

[MIKE LOWERY]

1. The ball is out of his hands as he takes the first step. It doesn't have to hit the ground yet.

2. The ball is coming up while he plants his right. Therefore the lil mini hopstep is legal too.

 

[imlive365]

If t heat win in 4 its been fixed

why they won last year in 6 without bosh.

 

[al3xis]

Most people do not know the NBA traveling rules. It's difficult to understand. But the two count rhythm is the major difference between HS/College and NBA.

You get two steps when gathering the ball. 1 step, balls out..2nd step....1step,2step..shot. Legal. IF there was a 5th step in there, he would have traveled at some point, but there wasn't.

 

[illest35]

if the heat are winning the fix is in. if they lose its hahahaha lebron choked they suck. lebron must be banging your family to.

why they won last year in 6 without bosh.

Your name must be Stan.

Banging my family? And you are how old again?

 

[knightngale]

How convenient

In either case you were wrong. You said he did not travel. He traveled 2 times in the same play. My first interpretation was wrong but he traveled.

It is convenient because IT IS THERE IN THE VIDEO. Thank god that there are 2 instances in which he traveled in case I got one wrong though.

Def not I live in Miami as you can see by my avy I ride with all my Miami teams win or lose. An I not suppose to defend my team? Just as much as I'm a "Stan" your a Lebron hater Stan cause I'm 100% sure you didn't hate on him before he left Cleveland. You jumped on the hate bandwagon just like everybody else

Stan by Eminem

Classic song.

 

[shoeking2101]

Sincerely hope the Mavs aren't banking on being able to sign CP3 and D12. 90% sure neither one of them go there. For some strange reason, Cuban believes there are franchise level players who want to play in Dallas.

Not saying there is anything wrong with Dallas per say, but I just don't see any franchise level elite players wanting to go to Dallas.

 

[knightngale]

His last step is the fifth step. Are you saying that when he his left foot touches the ground and then his right foot touches the floor one last time before he releases should be counted as 1 step? It is a clear 1, 2 motion. It is not even a hop step where both feet land at the same time and then you jump.

 

[durantula]

They haven't been buns for th past decade the were in the nationchampionship in 2003 and got robbed and were on the top 10
Intill 2007. We've been real mediocre the last 6-7 years but we should be good this year with everybody returning.

Your best qb in the last decade was ken dorsey. When willis went down with that awful injury(poor guy, glad to see he recovered well) yall were done. But hey Ohio State 2003 Fiesta Bowl champs baby. As soon as yall lose a championship blame it on the refs. I guess the refs stopped Miami on that last drive too huh? (Thats really how most heat fans sound btw)

Chris krenzel who I think was Ohio states qb at that time was already on the ground crying before that pass interference flag came out. I'm pretty sure it was 5 secs after the play ended. But we had our chance at the 1 yard line and blew it there was so much talent on that team that game shouldn't even have been close.

I know that was a bad call, only difference between me and the average lebron fan on this board is I can admit it even when the team Im pulling for gets a call in their favor. But ya, that maurcie clarett strip on the beast named Sean Taylor (rip) was

Yes you're safe to stand by your team, goes w/o saying. Kobe is my guy, but Ive been recognized Debrons game since HS. Doesnt change how I feel.

Did u not read my entire post tho? Did I not give the guy, your guy his props?

I still do. If I completely hated the guy, I wouldnt own any of his shoes..

But, truth is truth, and reality just the same. The fix is in/has been in.

Nothing to do with hate..

And tbh, if it'll make u feel any better, Iets just look at it as me pointing the finger at Stern.

I was about 9 when I watched that game and it was the first time I really actually saw them lose cause it was when i actually first starting understanding the game and I couldn't believe it. I still remember that play and the punt return that put us in position to tie the game I thought roscoe Parrish was gonna take it to the house but he got stopped. But yea man RIP to Sean if the players these days played with his heart at Miami we wouldn't have a problem being rellevant. still how the most guys in the league tho
