He was clearly at least 2 feet outside the circle https://www.sbnation.com/2018/5/31/17416184/lebron-james-charge-kevin-durant-overturned-block-foul-cavs-warriors-game-1-nba-finals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can only review that play if they think Lebron was in the circle. Then they can determine if it was a block or charge. My point is he was clearly not in the restricted. Not even close. So it should have never been reviewable. I still think it was a charge. As do many people inside and outside the NBA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Upon replay review, it was confirmed that James was outside the restricted area. The referees also reviewed whether James was in a legal guarding position, which is an additional reviewable matter for this replay trigger. Replay showed James was not in a legal guarding position because he was turning his body and moving into Durant when contact occurred. Thus the initial call on the floor was overturned and James was assessed a blocking foul." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-ALL-DAY Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 They ended up getting the call right but it is true that it should have never been reviewed since he was clearly outside the restricted area. It wasn't close as he was a good couple feet outside the restricted area…… but I'll take it anyways lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't close. LeBron was sliding in from the side and turned his body. He did not have position, and he was not set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So yeah def not close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, but none of those say if it was a close call or not. I have a ref in real time calling it a charge, an ex-NBA ref in the broadcast call it a charge after reviewing it multiple times, and the guy who used to teach NBA refs how to be NBA refs call it a charge way after the fact. There is clearly subjectivity in this and it could reasonably be called either way. But yes, since you are the defender of things Warriors it clearly isn't close. Also you can look up his (the guy who probably hired and was the boss of the fellows who made the call) explanation why it was a charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the NBA officials said it wasn't close. I believe you. That's why they took so long to discuss it. Probably took most of that time discussing dinner plans tbh.
