CBSSports.com's Gary Parrish has the story:
Turns out, there were at least two cameras rolling Monday night when Jordan Crawford dunked on James during a pick-up game here at the LeBron James Skills Academy. It was a two-handed jam, the kind that would've circulated quickly on YouTube. But Nike officials eliminated that possibility shortly after the dunk happened by allegedly confiscating tapes from various cameramen.
Freelance photographer Ryan Miller was one of the cameramen shooting the game.
He told CBSSports.com that Nike Basketball Senior Director Lynn Merritt took his tape.
"He just said, 'We have to take your tape,'" Miller said. "They took it from other guys, too."
SO let me get this right? LeBron James holds a basketball camp, Xavier's Jordan Crawford destroys LeBron with a dunk and then they confiscate the tapes because they don't want the "king" to look bad? That's fucking absurd if I ever heard of anything.
