As great as he is, LeBron James doesn’t always benefit from calls like some greats have in the past. Three years ago, he even fouled out of a Finals game.
Game 2 speaks to this, where we saw him get held on jump ball by Draymond Green and hacked by Andre Iguodala. The whistles were swallowed on both occasions which happened very late in the game.
The NBA has acknowledged blowing calls, but Cleveland managed to hold on.
According to the NBA, referees Zach Zarba, Scott Foster and Tony Brothers missed some calls during the last two minutes of the Cleveland Cavaliers’ 95-93 victory over the Golden State Warriors on Sunday. The best-of-seven series is tied at a game apiece.
“I saw it. I’m not going to talk about that, obviously,” Cavaliers coach David Blatt said Tuesday. “The NBA is doing their work and their homework and very qualified people are in charge of handling those issues. I’m going to let them handle it.”
