Should Paul George have intentional fouled Lebron

[MostReal]

The fukked up part is, he tried to foul him but Bron was already at the rim.

@ all that blown coverage though. Basically 3 players had to become retarded on defense for that shyt to happen in 2.2 seconds.

it was disgusting

you just cannot give up an UNCONTESTED layup in a moment like that.

just flat out terrible...they messed up the entire game with that.

That game went from potentially being one of Lebron's greatest moments ever..to really...yall just gonna give the man a layup an make it simple.

Pacers robbed me of a great finish with that crap.

Just imagine if Bron would have drained a contested jumper in George's mouth ...the entire game would be changed then.

Bron would've had his 'the shot' moment.

@ everyone jumping on the OP

He obviously meant foul him once he was beat.

And the answer is OBVIOUSLY yes.

lebron blew by paul george with ease. george was all out of position and off balance, and could not recover.

Should have called a tech on Wade, 6 players on the floor

 

[HHR]

Does anyone in here play pickup ball? You know the "no layups on game point" rule on D? Yeah....that should've applied here.

George should've hammered him across the arms....and Sam Young should've done anything but literally STEP ASIDE.

I usually hate when people complain about today's D and how "back in the day" the hard fouls made the game better blah blah blah...but Young needed to get his Lambieer on. If they call a flagrant, who cares?

The entire play is full of moments...

But George got beat so bad that he didn't even have time to "wrap" Bron up or prevent him from scoring. He tried swiping down at the ball but it didn't even matter. It really is unbelievable how out of position he was on that last play.

You're 100% right about Young though. It's the ECFs, you have to come over and do something to contest that. He just half-stepped and watched Bron lay the ball up. Even if he jumps and puts his hands up, any wasted motion from Bron would have been too much for him to get that shot off.

Oh well. Indiana isn't my team anyway so sucks for them

 

[Hersh]

young could have also tried to foul

 

[Jax]

That would be nothing but a 3 point play.

Wade's reaction tho >>>

 

[USSInsiders]

Wade's reaction tho >>>

:dwyaneflab: would've been for committing that foul.

George had no chance before LeBron caught ball anyway, the misdirection had his momentum carrying him in the other direction, but I'm shocked a solid man-to-man defender like George overplayed him as bad as he did.

shyt happens

Yep. If LeBron has to double-clutch or anything, Pacers win.

Lebron's reaction after the game winner is

 

[Big Boss]

PG got to let lebron shoot that jumper

 

[HendriX]

Terrible defense by George..he was out of position..if he tried to foul him it would have resulted in a 3 point play.
