And btw nice attempt at another LeBron hate post, especially when you know we could've had this conversation involving ALL NBA players instead of just him.

''Want me to show you?'' he said to a Cavs PR representative who had asked (at my request) where he was hit on Boston Celtics guard Sam Cassell's flagrant foul Tuesday night.
James then revealed the cut that he received inside his mouth as he drove to the basket.
''People think I'm diving,'' he scoffed. ''Maybe I need to get my eye poked out for people to know I'm getting hit.''
Clearly, James hears the crowd and the comments, comments that state he overreacts and draws foul calls with Shakespearean antics.
The cut was proof otherwise.
James does get hit, and when he does, he reacts. The crowd doesn't like it because the game is fast and the hits are hard to see live.
In Washington, he got poked in the eye and reacted; the crowd howled, but he had to call timeout to flush out his eye.
In Boston, he got hit on the upper lip, drawing blood. It was hard to see on a replay, let alone live, and the crowd hooted and jeered again.
The proof was in the cut.
Thing is, though, James has bigger concerns.
Like winning Game 2 tonight against the Celtics.

Seems as though there was some blood:

Every star acts.. and that's a way of them getting more calls.. All that "EHH." Flailing of the arms.. Falling to the ground when nobody touches you (Tony Parker)..ALOT of NBA players do this and will continue to do this b/c it works.. I say it's more of acting though, b/c the damage already has been done, But they are just trying to make it known.. Chauncey Billups does that ALOT! I mean how many pgs flail their bodies when their doing lay ups in the paint.. If the refs sees a little guy with awkward contortions in their body, ofcourse he's going to call it...
Floppers are people who don't get touched, but will do backflips to sell a call..
A little difference..
