WASHINGTON (AP) Was it a walk? ' LeBron James wants the' NBA to take a closer look at what he cails his "crab dribble." The ri1ove, James insists, does not constitute traveling.

James was whistled for taking an extra step while driving for a potential tying layup with 2.3 seconds left, and his Cleveland Cavaliers lost R077 to the Eastern Conferenceworst Washington Wizards despile_ wiping C!Ut a 16-point deficit m the fourth quarter.

Without raising his voice or getting particularly animated, James dissected the game's key sequence . in extensive detail - even pointi1\g QUI that he felt he was fouled as he released the shot, which · went in. "You have your trademark play, and that's one of my plays.

''I definitely knew he traveled, but I didn't know they were going to call it," Butler said about what happened Sunday. The Cavs were down 70-54 early in the fourth quarter, then 71-SB after Butler made one of two technical free throws when Cavs head coach Mike Brown was ·tossed for all his pointing and yelling. With assistant coach John Kuester running the team after Browh was restrained and led off the court, the Cavs chipped away until James' drive with I :0 I left tied it at 77-all. None of his teammates scored more than 13 points, the Cavaliers shot 39 percent for"the game and they were held to their lowest point tollil this season. At 77-77, Cleveland's Delonte West missed a 3point attempt, and ,Dominic · ·McGuire grabbed the rebou_nd while being scratched below the left eye by James, drawing some blood.
