LeBron James: the Crying King

LeBron James trying to flop for a foul

It's official. LeBron James has reached the status of a superstar at least in the eyes of the referees. He can take 3 steps and not be called for a traveling. When he stumbles into the lane and knocks over defenders, he gets rewarded to go the free throw line. If a defender gets physical, he can dish out an elbow and not get called for an offensive foul. What the NBA wants people to learn is that if you are popular, you can get what you want.

It gets even harder to root for somebody who exaggerates contacts. For someone who is built like an all pro linebacker at 260 pounds of muscle, he cries like a kicker. No matter how insignificant the contact is, expect James to complain. He will often grab his mouth or flop to to the floor like a child in a tantrum in order to get what he wants. James often yells "Heeeeey!" to the officials and the refs call a late foul on the defender to appease the King. He has established himself as one of the biggest whiners in the league.
