Chill brah. your hate of lebron is completely ridiculous. Officiating has been fine. In fact I've seen more missed calls go in GS's favor if anything.

That phantom blocking foul on Steph? Lebron gets calls if someone breathes too hard in his direction, but he clubs Steph going for a layup and no call

How about that "block" on Tristan Thompson? It was all hand no ball. There are going to be missed calls both ways

The hand is part of the ball. You aren't gonna get calls for hitting the hand of a guy trying to dunk lol

The announcers agreed it was a missed call. Also how about KD just stepping out of bounds a second ago? I'm just saying there are going to be bad calls both ways

It has gotten better since my initial complaints agreed. Bias in announcers is pretty bad tho

Shall I recount the reasons to thee?

Let's start with him always getting the calls: All Stars in Basketball get the benefit of the doubt when it comes to calls thus plays go their way more often than not. As Lebron is the biggest superstar in the game, even more calls will go his way. Back years ago, Kobe would get all the calls as well. It's just how the NBA works.

Then on to his whining. Yes, he whines, but so does every other player. It like the calls is just a part of the sport. Players whine to the refs or fake contact to try and get calls. You see it with Lebron more often since he is as previously stated the biggest star in the sport. Pundits talk about him more than other players.

Finally, his being "overrated"... unlike the other two points which have a basis in reality but are just warped by your viewpoint-- hate--, there is no basis in reality with Lebron being overrated. It is hard to overrate the second best player to ever play the sport unless someone was to call him the best. Almost every metric/ analytic supports Lebron ending his career as the second best basketball player ever.
