LeBron James is a tremendous player and he would remain an elite player even without the preferential treatment he gets.

Over the last three games, Dwight Howard, Hedo Turkoglu, and Mickael Pietrus have been routinely called on fouls in which little to no contact occured, or (which hapeens very often) LeBron initiated the contact. For the Cavs to lament that the Magic shot 51 free throws, they can only blame themselves. For one, if they did not want to purposely hack Dwight Howard they could have easily avoided a substantial number of those freebies. For another, they did not have to hip check or hand check Hedo Turkoglu when he is 30 feet from the basket. Lastly, Dwight Howard was fouled far more than was called and every time a foul was called, post-whistle hacking was a regular occurence by the likes of Anderson Varejao.
