I don't believe this article anyways. I know RealGM is generally legit but this just seems like it was a slow news day and they wanted something to stir updiscussion.

The move tha LeBron incorrectly identified as a crab dribble, isn't automatically a travel anyways. It was that particular occasion because he picked theball up a step earlier than normal, but most of the time it's just two long running steps and usually leads to him jumping off his right (wrong) foot andfinishing with his left or both hands.
 
"On a completely different note, what the heck is a crab dribble?
Butler: A crab dribble is a dribble where you get low and pound it, and you establish a pivot foot. [LeBron's play] just happened to be a travel the othernight.
BDL: But, you have heard of that expression before?
Butler: Yeah, it's a crab dribble. But, [LeBron's play] is still a travel."

As caron explains the crab dribble is legal but whatever the @@@$ bron does is a travel. Sterns goons are just letting him get away with his bs.
