Well, officially it was a blow to the neck, but Josh McRoberts has been fined for this hard foul on LeBron James late in Miami’s 101-97 Game 2 win over the Charlotte Bobcats. McRoberts was only whistled for a personal foul — a non-reviewable play — but it was assumed that the league would take a closer look at it this morning. Stay tuned for the retaliation move in Game 3…oh wait, there is no such thing in today’s NBA.
