Lol didn't even notice that while watching the game, he took 3 steps after his last dribble. At first i thought it was four but it was 3. But whatever it happens, but i love the youtube comments lol. Big time haters.

Worse than the "non call" was the NBA.com put in its daily Top10. Also, the number #10 play of the day came from a traveling violation (after a Jason Kidd pass).

NBA will always let plays like that go, cause that's what the fans pay to see - the highlight finishes and break away dunks. I've seen alot worse than that not get called on a regular basis.

Yep, Lebron traveled. The travel was however after the foul so the basket shouldn't have counted. It was a great layup though. By the way, he missed the free throw.

LeBron plays with fire. He's earned himself a non-call on something like that.

The reality is that the refs probably missed the travel due to the nature of the play. Lebron is extremely quick, much like Kobe, making it very difficult to accurately identify travel violations. Sure, after the 100th time of replaying it on Youtube it's as obvious as day but in the heat of the game it's a tough call to make.

Clearly a travel as great as it is

Gotta admit that LeBron is the best traveler ever.

I honestly don't think that's why this play, and ones of similar nature, end up being no-calls. The refs probably didn't catch it, plain and simple.
