Is this Flagrant 1, 2, or a good screen?

I really felt like I was watching soccer. LBJ was rolling on the ground acting, holding his head just like the soccer players for 5 minutes until the REF gives a flagrant foul. That's right, he acted like he was dying, then a minute later he was playing like nothing happened.

The Heat has mastered the art of the flop so the league will not do anything about it. It was a foul and only a foul. Overcoming the officiating is an unfortunate obstacle in beating the Heat.

I'm surprised it wasn't a flagrant 3 with the way the game was called.

it was a moving screen (a wee bit forward) and that is it. it wasn't even a hard foul. the woman's teammates never called it out. it's their fault it LOOKED worse than it actually was.

Its a foul... a bad one at that, don't know why people are saying its a "good hard foul".

A good hard foul would have been if Chandler sat Lebron's ass down when he drove down the lane.
But you can't have your arms up like that and lean forward into a players body like that.

AND of course they gonna call something every sport protects their stars, if Haslem did the same thing to Melo there would of been a call.

Should get call advantage in MSG

Leborn did the same thing to Lucas, which resulted in a no call. Care to explain?

And did you not see the exaggerated flop. How do you get hit in the back, and fall backwards?

Nope honestly Lebron's screen was clean, and he didn't have his arm up going into Lucas upper body.

Look at Tyson body its angled toward LBJ...
LBJ is straight up on that Lucas screen.

It looks like LeBron legitimately tripped after the hit making the foul look worse than it was. Horrible call though. Def a bad screen and an offensive and that's it...

He tripped? Okay. Which direction did he trip exactly? He threw himself backwards which means he flopped. No way around that.

After he jumped and set his feet, he thrusted his body upward. He wasn't standing up straight exactly. He just made it a little less obvious.
