*NBA THREAD* Abe will be missed (6 Viewers)

The Mavs need to get Barea off the floor. The Heat are fast enough to nullify his speed and he's way too small to have any utility when his speed is nullified.

Ain't this the truth. He's a waste of space.

He looked all world against the Lakers.

Most of the FFA could drop 40 on Derek Fisher.

DFish could make a statue look like Iverson these days.

The Lakers aren't nearly as quick as the Heat.

 

[Britney Spears]

By a very good margin, that's the best player in basketball.

Best player since Jordan.

Actually, I'll say best perimeter player. I could listen to an argument for Shaq, or maybe Duncan.

 

[GroveDiesel]

Phantom "foul" on Dirk there?

That was pretty bad. Seemed like it came from the ref on the other side of the floor as well rather than the guy right there.

 

[derek245583]

Deshawn Stevenson is hilarious...guy lives in his own world doesnt he?

Agreed.

 

[Britney Spears]

How many FT will Dirk miss this series?

I'll guess 1.

 

[flapgreen]

Anyone say something about great officiating?

 

[derek245583]

Gotta take the over, but I am not happy about it.

 

[Britney Spears]

Do we get to see LeBron on Dirk for the closing minutes?

 

[Instinctive]

Awful foul call on Chandler...almost as bad as the Harden thing last series...

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

Chandler did move and stick his leg out on that screen. It wasn't much, but he wasn't just standing there.

Yeah, a screen can't cover 8 feet.

 

[Britney Spears]

Wow, that was a huge board by Miller there.

 

[dickey moe]

Just some atrocious shooting tonight.

 

[PizzaDeliveryGuy]

He flopped before he got hit.

 

[flapgreen]

Bron's never fouled anyone.

 

[Ghost Rider]

Chandler is awful tonight on the boards. In a game where both teams are under 40% shooting, he should easily be in double digits with rebounds. He has four.

 

[Zaxxon]

Bron's never fouled anyone.

His Rasheed Wallace face is awesome.http://dirtyrottensports.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/rasheed.jpg

 

[wikkidpissah]

The more I watch of these playoffs, the more i realize how much better a team that listens to a competent coach is than one that doesnt. I've yet to see a team this season except the Celts (who maybe shouldnt) and the Bulls (cept when Boozer's playing) that does and that's why im real close to giving up on the sport entirely. The Heat have played close to 100 games together this season and they look like theyve just been introduced.

He's not rebounding poorly, he's just doing a really good job of sitting on the bench.

lol

 

[flapgreen]

That was pretty freaking lame. Miller got abused.

Rasheed Wallace may be the awesomest NBA personality ever. I wish he was the commissioner.

 

[flapgreen]

And now Dirk didn't touch anything but ball.

 

[Card Trader]

The tortilla (that's what we call Marion here in Phoenix because use to just fold in the playoffs) is having a very nice game

 

[Card Trader]

And now Dirk didn't touch anything but ball.

And wrist and forearm.

 

[Britney Spears]

Wade seems to be participating in basketball activities again.

 

[Mr. Pickles]

I clearly have been out of the loop for the entirety of Shawn Marion's career because I've never noticed how awful that shot looks.

 

[Leeroy Jenkins]

Wade with another huge block.

 

[flapgreen]

And now Dirk didn't touch anything but ball.

And wrist and forearm.

adjust your tv...or glasses.

 

[Instinctive]

It is impossible to beat a team making those kinds of shots throughout a whole game...

 

[flapgreen]

Wade taking over on both sides.

 

[Instinctive]

And now Dirk didn't touch anything but ball.

Don't worry about him - Trader has been the most biased poster in the thread for a week or two now...

 

[Leeroy Jenkins]

Wade taking over on both sides.

He certainly has the matchup advantage this series.

 

[the moops]

Ugly

 

[PizzaDeliveryGuy]

I can't ever look at Bosh w/out getting this vision in my head.

Carry on.

 

[Premier]

Miami is shooting 37% from the field.

You should step it up to an HD set, I hear Amazon has a few for cheap. Check it.

 

[Leeroy Jenkins]

Lebron is just mean. Wow.

 

[Britney Spears]

Holy poop.

 

[derek245583]

Man's Game

 

[flapgreen]

Terry is one brick laying fool.

 

[PizzaDeliveryGuy]

If there ever were a bail out.

Let's get some "You're so blind that..." back and forth going.

 

[flapgreen]

Miami players think a rake across the face isn't a foul now?

 

[Instinctive]

Right. Both teams are playing great defense. But Terry isn't hitting fadeaway threes with a guy in his face like LeBron or Wade. That's the difference. When the Heat play great defense, the Mavs miss most of the time. When the Mavs play great defense, the Heat miss a lot, but not quite as much. And that seems to be the difference.

 

[Britney Spears]

Terry is one brick laying fool.

The second he got away from LeBron in transition he had to take the shot. He seems to be having some of the same problems Rose was in the closing minutes.

 

[Card Trader]

If there ever were a bail out.

Come on man, we all know Dirk gets fouled more than ANYONE on the planet without calls.
