Indianapolis Mayor Bans Goaltending After LeBron James' Controversial Block

Indianapolis mayor Joe Hogsett "banned" goaltending in the city after Cleveland Cavaliers superstar LeBron James wasn't called for the infraction late in the Cavs' 98-95 victory over the Indiana Pacers in Game 5 of the teams' first-round playoff series Wednesday night.

On Thursday, Hogsett posted an executive order on Twitter:

The NBA released a Last Two Minute Report that confirmed James should have been called for a goaltend after blocking Victor Oladipo's shot after it hit the backboard.
