    Should there be a Class action Lawsuit brought against Lebron James and the Cavs ?

    LeBron James: 'Pretty Much Played The Last Three Games With a Broken Hand'

    Nothing on the injury report about a "Broken Hand" in those next 3 games.

    I've seen this happen before where a Las Vegas professional gambler will complain about common knowledge
    and injury reports.

    Would you do it if you Could ?

    This is the reason gambling was prohibited and wall street legal. Publication and transparency.

    If this is true it will deal a major blow to states who want sports betting without having to share money w leagues.

    This gives Silver and others ammunition to push for a cut of water profits for sterilization of league injury reports.

    The lines were inflated for GS wins both home and away which means the injury was factored in by books.

    Lawsuit?

    It's not a law they have to report injuries, it's an NBA rule. And the NBA wont do anything, especially considering he basically played every minute of every game.

    I believe there was a lawsuit filed when Pacquiao didn't disclose his injury before a fight. Not sure what happened to it but this seems to fall under the same circumstances.

    What is the league going to do with the integrity fee in this case? Pay LeBron to disclose it? The league's policy with resting starters during prime time is all bark and no bite, so what would the league do in this case (LeBron disclosing after the finals) assuming they had their integrity fee?


    Stop with this integrity fee bs, if anything this shows they can't even police their own house and now they want us to believe they can police the sports betting world.

    Not sure how a broken hand prevented him from playing defense or running back on time to prevent fast break points.

    Injury was not factored in by the books or else Lebron James total points O/U wouldn't have been 40.5 in game 3 and 36.5 in game 4

    Would you do it if you Could ?
    Reason why nfl demands injury report - gambling purpose - but if GSW knew lebron had a broken hand? They would just clog up the paint and not worry about lebron perimeter shooting

    This is true but it was pretty obvious he was not comfortable shooting jumpers after game 1.

    Nobody thought injury simply because LeBron loses confidence in his jumper all the time.

    There was never an issue of whether or not LeBron James was injured or may or may not start or play in a game.

    There is not story a here. Players play through bruises all the time and that's all LeBronda had, a bruise.

    Nearly every player plays through some kind of pain, always.

    I get that with some players it's more important. Both Andrew Luck and Russel Wilson played extensively injured and that could also be questioned.

    In the end, however, with the NBA finals, there is absolutely no story. No pro is complaining with this one, those that are, and really are pros, know better.

    Non issue and non story, LeBronda had a bruise and it was never a question on whether or not he would start.

    Never.

    When leaving the court, LeBronda made sure to shake hands with the kids, that was awful nice of him.

    Gimme the handshake LeBronda...

    I would do nothing, they got swept. Broken or not would have been the same result...

    James is one tough hombre, how broken was it, when was it discovered it was broken?

    It was not broken, it was bruised.

    LeBronda said she "pretty much played the last three games with a broken hand" hand and the media ran with it as fact.

    His hand was never actually officially reported as broken, it was however reported as bruised.

    Since gambling is illegal for most Americans the only people with a financial beef are those who bought tickets to games...unless there's fantasy basketball with only 2 teams, (please tell me there isn't ).
