After seeing the replay - you still believe that?lol....Griffin you almost took his head off....of course it's a foul.
KD is a better shooter than James. He's won like 3/4 scoring titles for good reason. I bet Jamal Crawford is probably a better horse player too. That would be where the comparisons end, though.Durant would kill LeBron in a game of H-O-R-S-E, right? KD could probably make every dunk LeBron makes, though they would be workmanlike and far less stylish. But he would shoot the lights out and LeBron couldn't hang.
Concur?
Do you not see Westbrook's head get hit? Even the commentator said, "I don't know how you can argue that call"After seeing the replay - you still believe that?lol....Griffin you almost took his head off....of course it's a foul.
Unless he's not in.Let Crawford bomb a 3 here. He's cold-blooded.

They showed a replay, from under the basket view point, and it was an obvious foul as he hit Westbrook's headNo. I thought Griffin didn't touch his head.Do you not see Westbrook's head get hit?

Having said that, I'm at a hotel and therefore can't back up and watch it again.

NHL officials don't favor stars?OKC is too good. The Clippers can't overcome them AND the refs.
How are NHL officials so good, yet NBA refs suck balls?
Not nearly as much IMO. They do, just like all sports do, but NBA is by far the worst.NHL officials don't favor stars?OKC is too good. The Clippers can't overcome them AND the refs.

I am guessing that is to ensure they have a game on Memorial Day. If they did the every other day thing, and the ECF was a sweep, they'd have no game on Memorial Day.Three day travel break between Games 2 and 3?
I like that he's not a psycho-fan who can't enjoy a game that doesn't involve his team. Great basketball trumps all. Much more entertaining to be a fan of a league moreso then a team.Still laughing at Nicholson sitting in the front row.

Which one?Was that Tobias yelling at George?
I know nothing about NHL officiating, but I do know that reffing basketball is the second hardest thing I've ever tried to do well (the first is play golf...so frustrating). You have to completely focused for the entire game...knowing your assigned areas and making judgement calls constantly...sometimes while you are running. And then you have to see sometimes 3 or 4 different things at the same time. The block/charge is so freaking difficult to officiate even in a game of 7th graders. I can't imagine trying to make that kind of judgement call at the speed of NBA players.How are NHL officials so good, yet NBA refs suck balls?
Freelove, just remembered I owe you $20. PM me with your paypal information or whatever and we'll arrange for some e-payment.A gentlemen's wager of $20 it is.Ok? I've got no emotions about the series, just don't think Washington is very good. Indy is a trainwreck, but I think they're a much better team objectively, and talent typically wins out in these situations.How strong? Put your money where your mouth is strong?I've got pretty strong doubts Washington wins three against the Pacers.I'll take the over. Brooklyn will get 1, and Washington at least 2 if not 3How many games do the Heat lose in the East side of the playoffs? O/U 2.5
Washington wins, I'll ship you a $20 Amazon GC. 4-2 Indy or worse, give a few bucks to a hobo for me. If it ends 4-3 Indy, I'll feel like pretty strong doubts were justified, but it just didn't quite happen, and no harm no foul.![]()

Just so you know, the Wiz are now favored to win the series outright after taking game 1, somewhere in the -150 neighborhood. Indy had been favored before the series, at around -180.

ETA: Unless that's somehow offensive. I don't want to offend. I just wanted to make good after I insulted your team's good name.
As if the game 1's of the Pacers last 2 series told us anything. Both were losses, they looked terrible in both, but still won the series.I may change my mind after game 1, but I think the Pacers get 2 and push it to 6....maybe even 7.
I have no idea what to expect from the OKC/Spurs matchup. Should be fantastic.
i think the SA-OKC series comes down to the Spurs supporting cast. Parker has been terrific throughout the playoffs but this is when teams generally punish him in the paint. Can the ball movement continue to find open shooters and will they fall? OKC has been able to win with it mostly Durant-Westbrook carrying them. It's the Spurs - maybe 10 of them - versus two OKC players for me.I may change my mind after game 1, but I think the Pacers get 2 and push it to 6....maybe even 7.
