Straight from the NBA Rulebook:
A defensive player may turn slightly to protect himself, but is never allowed to bend over and submarine an opponent.

Once again, Lebron had position, his feet were set. His upper body did turn slightly, but that had no effect on the fact that Lebron beat KD to the spot. I’ll add that Steve Javie agrees with me.
I think if you see that live, yeah it’s a 50-50 call. I had no doubt in my mind it was a charge after seeing the replay. To overturn it from a charge to a block is one of the most ridiculous things I have ever seen.
