Brown didn't seem too happy in his post game presser about the issue but when your name is the KING what is a coach to do.
Not legal. The other team would get to pick who shoots the foul shot, and LeBron wouldn't have been allowed to return to the game. You can only do that if the injury occurs because of a flagrant foul.
