Yes 100% fouled. Where are his 3 free throws? Bowen obviously was TRYING to foul Lebron. That is why he threw up that long range shot when he could have easily gotten a better shot. CMON. Give them a chance. I wish the referees would be fined crap like that.

Yes, Bowen did foul Lebron and if you watched the interviews after the game the Spurs said that is what happen. The refs made a bad call but that is not the Spurs fault. If it was Lebron that fouled Bowen you would not say anything. If you are a Spurs fan and the refs call a foul on the Spurs then the refs are wrong, but if you are a Cavs fan and the refs call a foul on the Cavs then it is a bad call. Come on guys and gals it is a GAME and people make mistakes.

Yes, there was a foul. And?!!
But 4 real though, the refs have been letting them play and for those who happen to read by comments, ya'll must be getting tired of me stating Work on your Skill Set. I am not saying it is right but the greater your skill set it seems like the more calls you get from the refs. After the grab my Bowen, LeBron still had an uncontested shot. He needs to work on his jumper. That would open his entire game up and make it easier.
Oh yeah, the refs. It does bother me at the end of a quarter the refs put their whistles away.

Don't get your panties in a twist. He may have fouled Lebron James but the officials are not going to call a foul in that situation and they shouldn't. The players decide the game not the officials. You can't say the officials are paid off when your team has been dominated by the Spurs. The Cavs are the worst team that I have ever seen play in the Finals. The eastern conference is awful and Cleveland is the best of the worst. Duncan only had fourteen points and Ginobli only had three. Don't cry. The Cavs are done.

Why are the Cavs fans acting like james would make a 3 pointer? Yes, Bowen fouled him, but so what???? he wouldn't have made the basket and he sure wouldn't have made the free throws. So what's with all the boo-hooing? Both teams shot lousy tonight, but the Cavs were just a tad worse .. that old " the refs just don't like us" crap is so frigging old already!!!

Actually he was fouled...but it doesnt matter because it was before the shot, he would have only had 2 shots, and plus if the cavs could have made more then 2/17 of your 3's yall would have won, so dont whine like all the other teams do because they need something to blame it on! Take your loss.

Yeah I know, the refs suck. The NBA wants another dynasty and instead of making the series more interesting they are going to call for the superstars. Bruce Bowen was TRYING TO FOUL HIM, and he did and it was in the act of shooting. The announcers thought is was a foul, Lebron thought it was a foul, and Bowen knew it was a foul because it was an intentionally set foul.
They just won't give them a chance.

absolutely, that is why i guess lebron released the shot earlier to catch up with the foul. but how many of you are thinking now that dwyane wade is far better than lebron? remember last years finals when wade took over the game.

no and i watched the whole game. you cavs fans cannot accept losses at all without whining about the officiating. you people are the worst. when you win its because you played great when you lose its not because your team was outplayed its because the refs are paid off. get the golf clubs out and stop whining.
