This link has video of the shove, clearly Mohammed should have been ejected and LBJ did nothing to earn a Technical.

Ref saw it as LBJ throwing an elbow to the guy who just held him up. Easy to do when you watch it.
That doesn't look like LBJ hauled off and threw an elbow. The foul was pretty bush league, I understand why the Bulls want to set the tone and not allow the Heat to get in rhythm but he just runs at him and fouls that early in the game...that looks like what you do when you are trying to extend the game at the foul line. I don't think LBJ was trying to throw an elbow, he wanted Mohammed off him but he was not intentionally trying to foul back. What Mohammed did was uncalled for and he should be suspended the next game as well.

LeBron certainly threw Nazr down. A clear technical which was upheld upon review. The refs got that whole exchange right. Nazr's response was worse.

(And by the way, those calling Nazr a thug obviously don't know much about the man.)

BULL####!!!

Mohammed knew what he was doing running at LBJ in the early part of the 1st half, just ridiculous.

Nazr is a goon, tried to start crap last game too
Agree but don't like Lebron flopping after the push either.
He was arguing with ref about T and caught off balance, made it look worse than it was, but was not a flop
I rewound and watched it a bunch of times, he definitely adds a little unnecessary theatrical flail at the end while he is falling back.Not that I'm defending Nazr- that was just ridiculous and has no place in the game.
So you'd suggest that he should be better at getting pushed from the front when he wasn't ready from a guy bigger than him and falling straight backwards gracefully?
I'm saying he made the fall more dramatic than it had to be. Flop was probably the wrong word. Lets just say I don't think Charles Oakley flies backward 15 feet there. (Btw Lebron and Nazr are the same weight).
:lmao: Pay no attention to the avatar...i'm impartial!

I don't think it was a flop...and to come away from that entire exchange thinking that Lebron flopped by falling backward shows to me i'm not the only one partial here.

Man I love playoff basketball, nothing in sports makes me scream at my TV like May/June hoops.

ETA-Nazr is 2 inches taller.... :lmao:

He may be a nice guy but this is the second game in a row we've seen him on national TV mugging people unnecessarily.

On a different play? I don't know what you're referring to.

your fishing trips stink
Phantom Technical. I watch a lot of basketball and I don't see anything like what LBJ did get called as a technical. He was not expecting to get wrapped up at mid court that early in the game and I think if you run at LBJ like that you should expect to end up on the floor.

Lot of media think so as well but you can think whatever you like. Announcers on the radios think it was pretty bad tech call on LBJ, again think as you like. MOP...fishing, I get it but that can't always be the argument.

Of course the media thinks that....LBJ = ratings.

he threw an elbow and is lucky that it didn't connect or he himself would have been ejected

Bulls just want it more... its unbelievable. This Miami team has no killer instinct. Gonna be a lot of trouble when they lose these two games in Chicago. Lebron looks frozen..so scared.

He got bear hugged at mid court in the 1st Q...

They are in rhythm on offense and I didn't think that was going to happen. Bosh has 10 boards tonight, his best game on the boards.

He clearly grabs Nazr and pulls him forward so he falls. In no universe did he throw an elbow, but he absolutely deserved a T. Stop posting drunk, it's making the thread a bit annoying to read.

 
Bosh should have gotten to the line on the last shot. I don't want to get on the refs but they are not helping the heat tonight which means they gotta play mistake free.

This 3rd period has been a disaster. Miami needs to understand they are not going to wear down the Bulls, bad game plan.

 
I cant believe the announcers arent calling out how nervous James looks... how flat was that jumper. There is NO chance the heat win this game

 
Whole lot of MOP.
Round 2, series tied 1-1...how about the person who has posted 12 times how nervous LBJ looks? Technical called early, maybe LBJ feels like he has to stay in the game. That technical form Crawford was uncalled for and the Bulls got what they wanted, LBJ is a jump shooter right now, not good.

Bosh 14/12 so far...

 
I hate Skip Bayless, but he is right about Lebron sometimes getting frozen in these kind of moments when teams play him hard. Lets see if he can redeem himself here in the 4Q. When he is rattled, it throws the whole offense off, because he keeps giving the ball up and running to the corner. lol

Just like that Mavs series, games 3-6

Certainly agree...remember last year when he closed up in game 6 at Boston?

You're a year too late, brother.

 
I don't think LBJ is scared of the Bulls, I think he's scared of Crawford and then an off night of shooting. 4/14 right now, he needs to be driving the ball to the basket but I think he's afraid he will get a 2nd tech.

Chrissy Bosh having his night tonight...big 3

 
Bad play by Noah..they are all exhausted. Gonna need Nate magic... can't let this one slip away. Cant count on the MVP getting this rattled every night in Chicago..
