Jalen hits on a big point that LeBron still doesn't seem to get

The crab dribble was perfectly legal, the three steps he took after that were not.

I Loved the Fact

That the entire panel on this show were laughing hysterically at LeBron James’s lame explanation on why his 3 steps were not a travel. Combine that with the ridicule he got from SportsCenter, and it seems that the ridicule LeBron has received for this has been pretty universal.

Not only am I glad about this, I’m glad to see the attention given to this. The more the media focuses on the star treatment the NBA referees dish out and childish antics of certain stars who don’t always receive it, the more likely David Stern and company may someday change their ways. The fact that LeBron’s whining about not receiving special treatment is coming months after the Donagy scandal makes it even better.
