*NBA THREAD* Abe will be missed (5 Viewers)

[Bogart]

So, does LeBron travel every time, or just most of the time??

What do you mean? I almost never see traveling called on LBJ.

 

[Instinctive]

Wow. Amazing play by Chandler to avoid running into Wade.

 

[Grady Wilson]

Chandler fouled him, but WAde should have been hit with a T.

 

[PizzaDeliveryGuy]

[Dought Man]

Not so fast Bron Bron.... 1-1 back to Dallas for 3 games. This gets very interesting now...

Yeah, I didn't say anything about it being called.

 

[Apple Juice]

Wow. Amazing play by Chandler to avoid running into Wade.

There was enough contact to call a foul but Wade acted like he'd been forced to the floor and raped. Typical overreaction because of a missed lay-up that Kobe has perfected over the years.

Chandler fouled him, but WAde should have been hit with a T.

We slowed it down and watched the replay like 4 times cuz a couple guys here are Heat fans...and frame by frame, you see Chandler bend his upper body backwards so as not to come into contact with Wade.

Can't blame him for doing it all the time if they're going to allow it.

 

[timschochet]

So far much more entertaining than game 1.

 

[Grady Wilson]

Mavs have had two golden opportunities this game to break it open, yet they're tied at half. Dirk has to played better the 2nd half.

Thought his hand was pushing on Wade's back. Those who have played the game know the slightest push can throw you off target (especially when going up for shots and going up for rebounds). That is called a foul 99% of the time in the NBA.

Ummm, no it's not. Maybe 85 or 90 percent of the time, but not 99%. If you've watched the NBA they've let much worse not get called.

Once again, I think the reffing has been pretty fair...But, I think this is in the same category as the Lebron "foul" yesterday when Jason Terry missed the dunk...You beat your defender and miss an easy one and they just automatically call a foul. I think it was a foul....generally NBA megastars dont shoot a layup and not hit the rim. Not saying that is why they shoulda called, just trying to say "I think it was a foul"But, like I said, see my first statement.

 

[Instinctive]

Looks like the Mavs have one guy who really wants to win (Chandler). Unfortunately, Miami has two (I think we know who)

 

[flapgreen]

There is more acting and more useless fouls called than any other sport. Really ruins everything all around.

 

[timschochet]

Marion's come to play tonight.

Most bias called sport out there.

 

[GOB]

3/14 from the floor for Bosh. Dude does not like passing the ball.

Agree with most of this. More acting in soccer.

Ok. I don't watch soccer, though.

 

[Grady Wilson]

Dallas has scored 12 points over the past 12 minutes of play. The last 3 minutes of the 2nd quarter and the first 9 of the 3rd quarter. That won't get it done.

If Miami could make FT's it might be bedtime by now...They have probably missed 8 FTs and I would guess they have only shot about 18.....that is horrendous in the NBA without a Howard, Heywoond, Biedrins on your team.

 

[Abraham]

van Fundy calling out Jackson. Awesome.

 

[PizzaDeliveryGuy]

Wow.

 

[17seconds]

Interesting seeing Mike Bibby and Jason Terry going up against each other, since they were teammates on the 1997 Arizona championship team.

 

[Instinctive]

I want more now Doris!

 

[flapgreen]

van Fundy calling out Jackson. Awesome.

What did he say? I missed it.

 

[timschochet]

Doesn't look good for my prediction.

 

[Instinctive]

Doesn't look good for my prediction.

I'm amazed at how close it is. The Mavs have been absolutely awful.

 

[flapgreen]

This is pathetic.

 

[derek245583]

I'm amazed at how close it is. The Mavs have been absolutely awful.

They are still playing very good defense and their conscience effort to rebound the basketball is keeping them in it.That said, I am pretty sure this is 2-0 headed back to Texas

 

[Dan Gladden's Mustache]

?

 

[flapgreen]

The Mavs have already conceded victory and moved on to the next game.

 

[Leeroy Jenkins]

Wade seems to have healed nicely.

 

[PizzaDeliveryGuy]

Oh it's so pretty!!!

 

[GOB]

Building, they are getting run out of it.

 

[derek245583]

This has to be a record for completely wide open dunks in a Finals game. Unreal.

 

[Grady Wilson]

This team has now scored 22 points in the last 20 minutes. What a joke.

 

[phrozen]

Congrats to the Miami Heat on winning the NBA title

 

[Instinctive]

Not that it matters at all at this point...but LeBron and Wade both get away with just eviscerating the refs without a tech, when you are supposed to get T'd up for even mentioning what you think about a call....

 

[Leeroy Jenkins]

How the hell was Twrry so far down court?

 

[Instinctive]

Congrats to the Miami Heat Dallas Mavericks on winning the NBA title

Sounds like 2006, doesn't it?

 

[JbizzleMan]

These Finals are pretty boring...

 

[bentley]

Congrats to the Miami Heat Dallas Mavericks on winning the NBA title

Sounds like 2006, doesn't it?

That's the only hope I have, but the 2011 Heat are much better than the 2006 Mavs.

 

[Leeroy Jenkins]

Don't be trying the reverse jinx guys.

 

[PizzaDeliveryGuy]

Don't be trying the reverse jinx guys.

It seems to be working. Miami looks done. :reversereversejinx:

 

[GOB]

Damnit, I turn on Gilmore Girls and this happens.
