so the argument is that jordan cheated too, so it doesn't matter? That pushoff pales in comparison to 4 steps. I don't blame lebron, the NBA simply ignores the rules on a regular basis, and it does cheapen the game. It was like that when Jordan played and got more leniency than anyway.I dont know if it cheapens his legacy.
Look at that Jordan shot, where he clearly pushes off and hits it to win the game. Eddie Jordan is just trying to make officials hesitate to call a foul when Lebron has the ball.
Keep in mind I enjoy lebron's game a lot, I just find it hard to respect the game as much when rules are ignored. In football, we demand that the refs are absolutely perfect and always make the right call in crunch time. The opposite is expected in bball, especially when lebron/kobe/jordan has the ball.
