Sorry, LeBron: This Was Not A Foul
Watch the last play of the Bulls game from last evening, then let’s discuss:
OK, yes, there was some contact here. But it’s initiated by LeBron James’ arms/elbow, which doesn’t constitute a defensive foul. Joakim Noah went straight up. He doesn’t lean in at all to body James. He doesn’t reach in or hack him. And there’s certainly nothing I see here that shows Luol Deng fouling LBJ.
Further, it looks as if LeBron isn’t even trying to score; he’s simply looking to draw contact so he gets to the line.
I think it was a great non-call by the officials. And it shows that, every once in awhile, they don’t always give stars better treatment.
