上周，马刺队在NBA阿联酋杯四分之一决赛中战胜了洛杉矶湖人队。在比赛过程中，紫金军团曾奋力反扑。在某一时刻，勒布朗·詹姆斯 (LeBron James) 做起了他最擅长的事——接管比赛并上演高光时刻。
在下面这个视频中，勒布朗隔扣了卢克·科内特 (Luke Kornet)。
戴着我的马刺滤镜来看，我对两件事感到质疑：
(1) 在回放中你可以看到，勒布朗用他的左臂打到了科内特的脖子；
(2) 詹姆斯在完成这次进攻后明显在挑衅科内特。
关于第一点，科内特是垂直起跳的，所以没有防守犯规，尽管这位马刺大个子当时处在合理冲撞区内。但从至少两个角度都能清楚地看到他用手臂击打了对方颈部。
肖恩·埃利奥特 (Sean Elliott) 常常将给予超级巨星的特权称为“NBA皇室待遇”。他常常推测，裁判会给球星一个本不该吹的哨子，或者当球员是精英级别时，该吹的犯规却视而不见。这两种情况都不该发生，但在激烈的比赛中，这种感觉却往往是真实的。
第二点则让我不禁要问——勒布朗·詹姆斯到底有没有挑衅卢克·科内特？如果有，那这究竟是如何界定的？也许我该摘下我的银黑滤镜了。
我用谷歌搜索了“NBA如何定义挑衅行为？”，跳出来的第一个链接是这个：
技术犯规，挑衅，球员在得分后朝对手大喊 | NBA视频规则手册
这是直接来自NBA官方的内容。虽然我明白裁判组不可能在技术台循环播放这段视频用以比对，但这应该是每一位主裁、裁判和助理裁判都熟知的内容。
官方给出的例子是贾勒特·卡尔弗 (Jarrett Culver) 挑衅罗宾·洛佩斯 (Robin Lopez)。从各方面来看，卡尔弗的动作强度都低于勒布朗。然而，卡尔弗第二次转身面向洛佩斯，而詹姆斯在与科内特的眼神接触断开后，便没有继续动作。
挑衅行为是否必须包含言语？视频中可以看到卡尔弗在说话，而勒布朗只是发出了一声野性的咆哮，听不清具体词语。
这两种情况之间肯定存在差异，但模糊不清的是这个词（挑衅）的定义。
- 出现以下非体育道德行为时，应被判罚技术犯规：
- 对裁判言语不敬
- 与裁判发生身体接触
- 对判罚或不判罚表示不满的过激行为
- 使用亵渎性语言
- 教练未经裁判许可进入球场
- 故意向对手挥肘或做出任何其他非自然的、没有实际接触的身体动作
- 挑衅
所以问题来了——勒布朗·詹姆斯到底挑衅卢克·科内特了吗？如果挑衅了，他凭什么能逃过处罚？
精英球员是否有权获得更多对他们有利的判罚？他们是凭借卓越表现赢得了这种待遇吗？
还是说，比赛场上应该对所有人一视同仁？或许规则本就如此，只是当漏判涉及到超级巨星时，我们的感觉才会有所不同。
各位球迷朋友们，你们怎么看？

Open Thread: Determining what constitutes taunting in the NBA
Last week, the Spurs vanquished the Los Angeles Lakers in the NBA Emirates Cup Quarterfinals. En route to the victory, the Boys from Tinseltown made a push. At one point, LeBron James does what he has always done best —taking over and making highlights.
In this next video, LeBron posterized Luke Kornet.
Through my Spurs glasses, I took issue with a couple of things:
(1) in the replay you can see LeBron throw his left arm into the neck of Kornet, and
(2) LeBron James is clearly taunting Kornet after the play.
On the first complaint, Kornet goes straight up, so there was no defensive foul, although the Spurs big man is in the restricted area. But the arm to the neck is clear from at least two angles.
Sean Elliott often refers to the privilege afforded to superstars as “NBA royalty.” He often surmises that the refs will give a star a call that should have been a no call or fail to assess a foul if the player is one of the elite. Neither should be true, but it often does feel true in the thick of a game.
The second made me ask — was LeBron James taunting Luke Kornet. If so, how exactly is that determined? Perhaps I need to take off my Silver & Black specs.
I Googled “what defines taunting in the NBA?” and the first link to pop up was this one:
Technical Foul, Taunting, player yells at opponent after made basket | NBA Video Rulebook
This is found directly from the NBA. While I realize the officiating crew doesn’t have this running on a loop at the scorer’s table for comparison, it should be something that each crew chief, referee, and umpire has been made familiar with.
The example given shows Jarrett Culver taunting Robin Lopez. By all accounts, Culver’s level of intensity is lower than LeBron’s. However, Culver turns a second time to Lopez, where James does not continue once eye contact with Kornet has been broken.
Does the taunting involve the verbalization of words? Culver can be seen speaking where LeBron sounds his barbaric yawp with no audible words.
There are definitely differences between the two situations, but what is not clear is what defines the term.
- A technical foul shall be assessed for unsportsmanlike tactics such as:
- Disrespectfully addressing an official
- Physically contacting an official
- Overt actions indicating resentment to a call or no-call
- Use of profanity
- A coach entering onto the court without permission of an official
- A deliberately-thrown elbow or any unnatural physical act towards an opponent with no contact involved
- Taunting
So the question is — did LeBron James taunt Luke Kornet? And if so, was he right to get away with it?
Should elite player be entitled to get more calls to go their way? Have they earned it by exhibiting greatness?
Or should the playing field be leveled for all? Perhaps it is and it just doesn’t feel that way when the missed call involves a superstar.
What do you think, Pounders?
