Lebron since the league is very clearly rigging all his games by feeding his team double or triple the free throws of their opponents.
Plus he hasn’t won a championship without a bubble or blatant league office interference since he was on the Miami Heat.
Reminds me how Booker bearhugged Kuminga during the Warriors Suns game, Kuminga got called for a foul for forcefully breaking out of the bear hug (because what else was he supposed to do?!)… Steve Kerr called for a review of the play and after watching slow-motion replays over and over again of Booker literally bear hugging Kuminga the referees told us that Booker’s contact was “immaterial” but Kumingas contact was not so the call was not overturned.
So literally bear hugging someone is “immaterial” contact… but getting yourself out of a bearhug is a foul?
The Lakers. They’ve played a mostly soft schedule and have been propped up by historical free throw numbers by the refs in all but two of their games… and they lost both games where they didn’t get ridiculously blatant ref help (including the 44 point blowout).
Either the refs will continue to rig it for them all season, or they’ll be lucky to make the play-in.
