A better knock against him would be saying something like the refs gave him (and the Cavs) a playoff game against Washington because they refused to call a travelling (is that the name) on James' winning basket. That was a complete fabrication and brought back memories of players who were so marketed by the league that they could go on with impunity (like, i don't know... the MJ/Russell incident).
The fact that the Cavs got swept by the Spurs and that Lebron played awfully in that series only showed me that the East was weak as hell and that Lebron failed. It was NOT the same as the Bulls being swept by the Celtics while Jordan was playing out of his mind...
