If LeBron James has an issue with the flagrant foul disparity in the Eastern Conference Finals, Toronto Raptors forward DeMarre Carroll has found an explanation for the discrepancy:

"Maybe because we don't act," Carroll said.

While there were several hard fouls in Game 1, only the Cavaliers earned a flagrant for their physical play. Power forward Kevin Love picked up his first of the postseason after hitting the Raptors' Patrick Patterson with an errant elbow in the third quarter.

Minutes later, James was hit in the face by Toronto's Bismack Biyombo, but was whistled for an offensive foul on DeMar DeRozan.

"I know what it is when it happens to someone else, but I don't know when it involves me," James told ESPN's Dave McMenamin on Wednesday. "I have no idea what a common foul and flagrant foul is."

While LeBron may believe the Raptors got the benefit of the whistle in Game 1, the Cavaliers earned the advantage at the free-throw line, shooting 13 more freebies than their opponents.

Game 2 takes place Thursday at Quicken Loans Arena.
