The first fowl came against the Warriors' Juan Toscano-Anderson early in the fourth quarter. James attempted to draw a charge on the game, threw himself backward after slight contact, and called for an offensive foul. As they went back for the review, the referee's determined that the play was not an offensive foul but a block on James.
According to SFGate, as sitting on the bench, James points to his chin proclaiming that Toscano-Anderson elbowed him on the face. However, the replay showed Toscano-Anderson never touched James' face, and the call's reversal confirmed it.
You thought that was the end of it? Nope. James is not done showing everything he learned from his recent Hollywood acting roles for the sequel "The Space Jam: A New Legacy" of the iconic 1996 comedy.
The fourth quarter came, James went up for a layup with the Warriors' Draymond Green defending. Green, fantastically defensing the entire game, committed a hard foul on the play, sending James to the line for two free throws. James spends a good time writhing on the ground, acting as if the contact on the play nearly blinded him.
