They said that it was overturned because he was hit in the face AFTER the shot? So it wasn't a foul because the hit to the face was after the shot and not during the shot?

I'm not a Lebron fan, but it would get a pretty good chuckle out of me if he were to tell the officials that his plan is to smack a Denver player in the face after every shot they take - but he'll make sure it's AFTER the shot, so those shouldn't be called as fouls and he expects the replay center to make sure they aren't.
