thats what 4-5 games? As physical as he is and as many minutes as he plays and the spotlight thats on him?

[Bigsmoke]

and?

[KingMichael23]

LOL WTF? How much Fouls is he averaging per game? 0.9 FPG?

[ClutchOver9000]

Lets see....

Freak physical specimen, plays a physical game (especially defensively)

Not a single foul committed in 4 game span?

Seems legit...

[plowking]

Hes been playing great man to man defense recently. I don't think there is anyone better in the league at it. Hes so ridiculously nimble, with insane length and overall speed and size.

Bron is a hard defender, but he does a great job of keeping his body in front of his player.

[L8kersfan222]

Rigged.

[RoundMoundOfReb]

he does do a good job of not fouling but 2 weeks without a foul lmfao.

You have to play D to get fouls.

[#number6ix#]

People act like he suppose to call a foul on himself

[Jax]

He doesn't reach, he doesn't go for pump fakes, he's the GOAT fast-breaker, what else would you expect? Heat is playing what, 3 games in 2 weeks?

gotta play defense to foul...lol...the heat have been bad on D and james hasnt been playing much defense either.

[Clifton]

Is there actually any evidence that the reason for this is anything other than a little good luck (i.e., not being in a position where you have to foul) and a lot of good, smart play?

Can anyone find a clip of him not playing defense right to keep up the streak, or him committing a foul and not getting called for it?

Or are we just wasting our time here?

The following players have reputations for being, at worst, solid defenders, play over 30 minutes a night, and average fewer fouls per game than Lebron (1.5) this season.

Tayshaun Prince 1.0
Andrei Kirilenko 1.1
Luol Deng 1.3
Shawn Marion 1.4

Durant is being praised for his improved defense and is only averaging 1.6 fpg. That's just 0.1 more than Lebron. Other noted solid to good defenders such as Iggy, Batum, and Afflalo, are averaging 1.6, 1.8, and 1.9 fpg respectively in over 30 minutes of playing time per night also.

What is actually more surprising to me is the paucity of free throws Lebron is attempting per game this season. In the past 20 years only Joe Johnson and Ray Allen (http://www.basketball-reference.com/play-index/psl_finder.cgi?request=1&match=single&type=per_game&per_minute_base=36&lg_id=NBA&is_playoffs=N&year_min=&year_max=&franch_id=&season_start=1&season_end=-1&age_min=0&age_max=99&height_min=0&height_max=99&birth_country_is=Y&birth_country=&is_active=&is_hof=&is_as=&as_comp=gt&as_val=0&pos_is_g=Y&pos_is_gf=Y&pos_is_f=Y&pos_is_fg=Y&pos_is_fc=Y&pos_is_c=Y&pos_is_cf=Y&qual=&c1stat=pts_per_g&c1comp=gt&c1val=25&c2stat=fta_per_g&c2comp=lt&c2val=6&c3stat=&c3comp=gt&c3val=&c4stat=&c4comp=gt&c4val=&c5stat=&c5comp=gt&c6mult=1.0&c6stat=&order_by=pts_per_g) have avg. at least 25ppg while averaging fewer free throw attempts per game than Lebron is this season. It's as if he's getting fouled a lot less than normal. I haven't watched that many Heat games this season. Is his physical play and aggressiveness on both sides of the ball different than it was in the past? Has he changed his game?

[swi7ch]

great, now he'll foul out next game :facepalm

[kennethgriffin]

will somebody with league pass and a screen capture device please make a quick 2 week highlight video of all lebron should be fouls and load it on youtube with the title ".... NBA. where rigged happens" and include the information and box scores after each game


would love to see that sent to league head office

[LBJ 23]

I haven't watched that many Heat games this season. Is his physical play and aggressiveness on both sides of the ball different than it was in the past? Has he changed his game?

He's not attacking the rim as much as he used to. His midrange game is also slowly getting better and better and he's not getting fouled as much cuz he was never known to be a serious threat with his midrange jumpers, floaters, jump hooks,...

[Rysio]

fixed title.

[nightprowler10]

Is there evidence that he's been getting away with fouls though?

[LBJ 23]

No, just empty words specific posters.

Just wait for them to find one example where Lebron doesn't get called for a foul and then generalize it like it's some kind of routine.

[Clifton]

Learn something new every day. Today, I learned that Tayshaun Prince is still in the NBA. I haven't heard or seen his name in 2 years.

[Dro]

**** some evidence..Even the best defenders like AI, Paul George, Tony Allen, etc, etc, get called for fouls every once in a while even if its for just fighting through screens, blocking out guys on rebounds, or trying to keep a man out of a post position. Hell, not even a charge and I'm sure he's gotten blocking calls that could have been called charges just like any other player. All this probability and the man has not been called for a foul. He guard every position, pressures guys at half court, guards guys in the post, guards guys off screens and oh yeah, he also has the ball the majority of the time and not 1 offensive foul. Yeah, it seems pretty legit...

[longtime lurker]

LOL in a league where you can't breath on a perimeter player without getting a foul called you mean to tell me Lebron with all his defensive "pressure" hasn't been called for a foul? Either he's not really playing defense or he's being reffed by a different set of rules.

Did you see the game tonight ? Because I never saw him fouled once at least provide me evidence he's fouled players because he sure didn't tonight.

His defense from what I've seen is perfection. On the other hand, he gets away with a lot of charges.

He charged the hell out of Carter at the end of the 3rd.

This was the only play in the whole game tonight where he even put the refs in an opportunity to blow the whistle. They overlooked that one, but besides that, the refs didn't have any decisions to make on fouls for LeBron. Refs should get only get 9/10ths the pay they get to ref LeBrons games because they don't have to worry about calling fouls on him.

[Sarcastic]

What's the record?

[Mr. Jabbar]

and the disgrace continues...:facepalm

[La Frescobaldi]

What's the record?
Moses Malone broke Chamberlain's record for consecutive games without fouling out although he did finally foul out after 1,212 games.
As far as longest streak without a foul? I have no idea

[ClutchOver9000]

This is a joke right? What is it 5 games now?

My god I know he's clearly the best player in the league but can the league stop it w/ this bullshit overprotecting/favoritism? He's great enough as it is...

Are we really suppose to believe that LBJ doesn't get reffed by a different set of rules than the rest of the league...like c'mon...

[Mr Clutch Melo]

He plays really smart defense and players dont really go at him. They seem scared of taking him on. Today he did not commit any fouls and the refs had a good game.

[ClutchOver9000]

Ok so for sake of discussion lets say you're right and his defense has been stellar, and flawless for 5 straight games. He hasn't committed an offensive foul either? W/ the way he attacks the basket, both in transition, and in the halfcourt?

Kirilenko has had two stretches of 5 games where hes only been called for 2 fouls each time. That's 4 fouls over 10 games. No one blinked an eye.

How many minutes was he playing per game?

[plowking]

How many minutes was he playing per game?

I can't be bothered adding it up, but on a look basis, it seems to be somewhere from 32-36 minutes a game.

In fact, for the month of November, AK47 averaged 1.2 fouls a game. In December hes averaging only 1fpg. 1.1fpg for the season so far.

Impossible right? Since AK is such a physical defender... Not really. Its just brought up only because its Lebron.

Watch a game or two. Lebron is an all time great on the defensive end.

[ClutchOver9000]

How does this prove your point? He still got called for fouls. And he doesn't have the ball in his hands all game like LBJ does nor is he as physical a player (offensively and defensively) like LBJ is.

Here's a really hard foul, and no call

Kirilenko was called for 0 fouls against the Heat guarding Lebron the whole game. :oldlol:

How exactly does that happen? Bullshit bias for Kirilenko. League has been exposed. Clearly favoring Russians. Knew it all along.

^ That there is basically as good as your argument. Probably better.

LBJ called for 0 fouls in 5 games.

You say that Kirilenko was called for 2 fouls each in two separate 5 game stretches.

I say that doesn't help your argument because he was still called for fouls in that span of games.

You now use single game sample for Kirilenko to defend LBJ's foul-less 5 game stretch.

It's been happening for a LONG time and in most sports and it will continue as long as the refereeing is done by a human. No point in crying about it. My pacers get raped sometimes cause of superstar calls too. Hell durant was averaging less PF than lebron before this game lol.

According to bbr, Lebron did that before. 2009-03-22 to 2009-03-31, five game streak without a foul.

Nothing can beat Nash's 11 game no-foul streak last season.

Easy to do when you and your team play 0 defense lol.

Lebron with 0 fouls in 6 games is a testament to what a smart and skilled defender he is, maybe a little ref help too. But hey, he got a technical today for arguing, so he isn't as babied as many think.

[gilalizard]

It's not just this streak. It's his entire career.

LeRef has been grossly favored by the refs since he came into the NBA.

Last season's Finals are a shining example of it. This streak is standard operating procedure. They're just making barely any effort to conceal it anymore.

You're laboring under a misconception.

I find it infinitely entertaining watching drooling LeRef stans try to rationalize away the reality of how grossly favored by the refs he actually is.

Lebron isn't the player ESPN/Nba refs have made him up to be. This isn't the first time some ridiculous advantage has happened for him. Prior to the game against Boston in the playoffs last year, he has never fouled out of a game. I'll always remember that when I get older and teach all of the youngings. He doesn't have to work as hard because he's already got the refs in his pocket and guys at ESPN in his jockstrap.

Kobe made huge clutch shots last night, but you wouldn't know it by logging into ESPN.com. It's always Lebron watch, mvp, etc crap. Frankly, I'm sick of it. What Kobe's doing at his age isn't getting enough praise. It's like these news media outlets don't even try to hide it anymore, they're all clearly on Lebron's nuts and trying to shove him down our throats. I'm no sheep though. :no:

Nah. I just respect Kobe. He's been an inspiration for all the young ballers. Can't say the same about Lebron when everything is gifted to me from the refs, Stern and the media.
:oldlol:

Those words describe Kobe than any player in the history of the NBA.

Hell, it all started on draft night. How many 13th overall selection get to call their own shots by refusing to play for a team?
1998 All-Star selection on 15 PPG?
Given more credit than deserved when he wasn't even the main star on his own team.

Nobody has been babied by the NBA and basketball media as much as Kobe has.

[red1]

Dam this guy is pretty mad. Go outside for once. I see you craptors fans haven't recovered from the 81points Kobe dropped on you guys in 06.

:lol And he keep repeating himself! Have some selfawareness and look at yourself you ridiculous fanboy. You still think I am making fun of your god so you brag from your couch like you accomplished something "5 rings11!!" "81 points!!11!!!"

What a clown

The real joke is the Toronto Raptors. How many rings has that franchise won? Even Lebron has more rings than that crappy franchise :biggums:

Let me remind you that I am a Lakers fan and YOU are a Raptors fan. 16 rings > 0 rings. Maybe if you put more effort into being a better fan as opposed to hater, the Raptors might actually make the playoffs. :facepalm :lol

Nobody who plays good defense gets away with everything. If you're not commiting fouls then you're not playing tough enough


And if hes as good as people say he is then the nba is rigged for miami

[livinglegend]

someone is mad

[Alan]

I see that this thread is full of video evidence pointing towards missed calls. Thanks for posting, OP.

It is very clear you don't watch any of his games. If you did, you would see that he doesn't put himself in position to foul. Never puts himself in a situation to let a ref decide the outcome of a play. During this stretch of foul-less games he has had a game of 4 blocks, so he is playing solid defense.

Please, in this stretch of 6 games, show me a video where he should have had a call made against him.
Off the top of my head, there was only one debatable no call, which was at the end of a quarter where it looked like he could have been called for a charge, but besides that, clean basketball.

[Kews1]

Following* OP

Or is it super secret option number three - OP is a ****** :confusedshrug:

[Rysio]

lebrick realized that getting personal fouls was messing with his PER so he stopped playing defense.

One of the following is true: Lebron isn't the goat, or someone chucked up 41shots last night

[Spaulding]

We have heard this so many times. Here's what needs to be done by people making these same threads.

Show videos of Lebron playing poor defense this season during his "no foul streak."

Show videos of Lebron clearly fouling during his "no foul streak."

[Mr. Jabbar]

OP's avy says 0.5 rings. I say -0.5. Do the math. In 2011 single-handedly denied the stacked Heat a ring, thats a -1. Then gets 1 with a * in a shortened season carried by refs, that only counts for half a ring.

So: -1 + 0.5 = -0.5

Modify your avy for accuracy.

[arifgokcen]

You maybe the biggest troll since bladers or you are bladers

[Mr. Jabbar]

Kobe won his five fair and square, and never costed his team a finals series. Perhaps 2002 WCF was kind of rigged so thats 4.5 rings at worst. :bowdown:

But lets focus on the topic at hand, lebron has -0.5 rings, thats less than anyone I can think of in the league. The ultimate anti-championship player.

I don't really get why you guys get mad at facts. In fact you should be thanking me. This means you all (ISH posters, Lebron stans included) have more rings than a NBA player just by not being in the negative ring count.

Grats I suppose.

you forgot 2007 where he single handly cost the cavs a title by choking and losing 4 close games in a row. -1.5 rings

[BMOGEFan]

you forgot 2007 where he single handly cost the cavs a title by choking and losing 4 close games in a row. -1.5 rings

you also forget that he already gave up on the cavs on his last season with the team when he conspired with 2 other superstars to form a superteam in the mid season.

-2.5 rings

Surprised someone who pumps up kobe and disrespects lebron because of insecurity :lol Laker fan posts these days have been downright horrible, I rather read pauk's post :lol It's like this guy thinks him being a laker fan contributed anything to laker fans success and somehow makes him better than a raptor fan.

[chips93]

theory: if kobe wins another ring this year, gets FMVP, and maintains his effeciency lfor the season, BallsOut pushes himself into the conversation for GOAT fan.

Thoughts?

[itsGameTime]

This whole situation reminds me of game 1 and game 2 Celtics-Heat ECF last season. Refs continually screw Boston with call after call after call. There was a huge upcry from basketball fans around the world. Hollinger called out the integrity of the league and only then did they start to try to fairly officiate the rest of the games, unfortunately for Boston fans.

My prediction: Lebron will get called for more fouls in the next few games to mask his total foul per game numbers for those who don't pay attention.

It must suck having things handed to you all the time, then again probably not :oldlol:

[stephanieg]

Both can be true.

i like your logic :oldlol:

[Ikill]

Just shut the F*ck up!!!
Chill!

[Eat Like A Bosh]

Not being called for a foul for so long isn't a good thing.
It means either

1) You aren't giving your full effort on the defensive end

2) You basically suck on the defensive end(aka Nash)

3) The refs are swallowing whistles, aka not calling them on you.

[upside24]

I don't even know what to say really.

I guess :facepalm ?

I predict he will foul Durant at least twice tomorrow.

[STATUTORY]

He will foul him at least 5 times but will he get called for any of them?

[jbot]

more like the refs haven't called a foul on him since then.

Kobe without Shaq - MVP, 2 Scoring titles, 3 straight finals, winning back-to-back.

Shaq without Kobe - Carried by Wade and the refs to a title, and became a journeyman.
