Remember how when LeBron was a member of the Cavs/HEAT, people always complained that he got all the calls? Crab dribble, etc.
Shaq and Dwight (as both a member of the Magic and as a Laker) objectively got screwed because they were too strong to play defense on without fouling. Not sure LeBron is getting unfavorable treatment with all of his uncalled travels... _________________ Damian Lillard shatters Dwight Coward's championship dreams:

Yup. People used to say Lebron got all the calls. Now Lebron is a Laker so its Harden. And Lebron is back to never getting calls cuz leeg h8 lakrz.
Truth is probably somewhere in the middle as is with most things. They have missed a bunch of calls, probably because he is so strong and it often doesn’t look like it affects him unless he embellishes it.
Shouldn't this count as trolling/baiting? I have a hard time imagining anyone can make the case that Shaq never complained about refs during his time in LA; especially when you consider... you know... that there exists evidence that he did.

He’s not trolling/baiting. Just out of touch and more fond of yesterday than is probably justified.
Shaq complained all the time. So did Kobe “eeeyyyyyy!” Bryant. So did Lebron.
It’s funny. Has any player ever said they get too many calls? No.
I will say, VLF is right about one thing. The NBA is soft as (bleep). The softest of all major sports leagues.

It’s funny you remind me of my old uncle who can’t recognize anyone on our laker team but will always bring up the showtime lakers players whenever he sees this current laker make a great play on TV.
