Lebron just want a safe and controlled landing, and thats a tech? smh these NBA referees nowadays
We really need to protest every game to stop these delusional refs, like that looks normal but still he got a tech. The refs need to whistle through the rule book not their feelings 🤦
It's a shame the game is so soft now!!
Why do they care it doesn't damage the rim
Ar has good iq
That's a DUMB rule!
I'm sorry but lebron hung on whole his body seeing& was waiting for his momentum to swing his body back & then pulled up to let off to land the easiest. He's he's closer to 40 not 28 prolly was easier on his knees to wait for the best time to let go& land easier.
I didn't see a problem with it he wasn't taunting or anything it seems. But yeah when he dunked his legs flew forward & he waited too swing & pulled up to straighten his body out to land. So it's not like a a technical… showing off thing. I dunno
Explain it to me what exactly is the problem with him hanging on for half a second more?
People should boycott the nba.. this is bs
Their popularity is gonna go down a lot if they keep this up they want players to play like robots, cant celebrate, cant showboat, where's the entertainment???
Looking forward to a Key and Peele skit about NBA referees…
A stupid rule
This needs to stop asap. I might as well watch Tennis or Golf
Lebron James is overrated
Unnecessary rule…let them pull ups , hang as long as they want 1 less player to play against for the offence
yesterday Jayson Tatum got a foul for thr very same thing 😮😮
They can't do that to the King. What is wrong with that?
😂these refs I tell ya!!!!
RIDICULOUS
Lebron with the "disappointed but not surprised" look
Hate this rule
Bit unfair I think.
they make nba more boring..
Jesus Christ at this rate they’re gonna ask players to write a heartfelt apology letter to the opposing team’s owner after every dunk to avoid a tech
Can we finally do something about the refs? Freaking ridiculous…
Soft ref
Lebron could do anything when he's home
He should of got 1 4 all them 3 pointers he missed
He always hurts his team for the stat sheet and the highlights
Im tired of the ref for give out technical for nothing just let them play!
Looks like a legit call, but ONLY if everyone gets called the same way. Props to Lebron for not reacting & taking it like a champ!
