LeBron Treatment 

The LeBron Treatment is a treatment initiated by Referees of the NBA. The treatment consists of a process where the referees call minimal to no fouls in favor of LeBron James to avoid an unfair advantage.

The referees avoided calling four fouls against LeBron, however, called similar fouls performed by LeBron to avoid him achieving a triple/double.

LeBron was given the "LeBron Treatment" by the referees, yet he still managed to pull off 61 points.

The LeBron Treatment is in effect today, preventing the Miami Heat from having an over 10 point lead.

“Bro Kawhi is going off this series, he’s the best player right now”
“But KD better, he a lot better shooter and scorer”
“You’re giving him Lebron Treatment, what exactly has he done so far?”

2010s LeBron Treatment

When someone or something is so good for a long time that people begin to discredit how good they actually are. Often stems from an annoyance of hearing about this thing or person too much.

Steve: I love Drake but I am so tired of hearing about him and everyone loves him now.

John: Cmon man, don’t give him the 2010s LeBron Treatment. Just enjoy his music while you still can.
