*NBA THREAD* Abe will be missed (8 Viewers)

[phrozen]

James is so afraid of taking the last shot.

he got tripled

ssshhhhh they are on a roll here

 

[mr. furley]

Ridiculous call.

So hooking a guy should be legal? Got it.

Two guys fighting each other in the paint. Yeah, clearly that foul was all Garnett.

ESPN gave you a slo-mo, freeze frame of Garnett putting Lebron's arm in some sorta WWF lock-hold to prevent Lebron from sliding over. that alone should have been a foul. barrelling over James was too egregious for the refs to pass on it.

 

[dickey moe]

It'll be a miracle if the Celtics have the legs to come away with a win in OT.

1st half/2nd half = night/day

 

[wilked]

Can't wait for the Lebron haters to get on him for passing the ball as hes in triple coverage.ETA: Looks like I'm too late.

Kev, what I don't get is why he doesn't drive, create some contact, get the shot up. I think the refs will get him to the line at least 60% of the time in this scenario

ah, haven't really been keeping up with the thread. would have went with a shtickier post had i known.

 

[Popinski]

James is so afraid of taking the last shot.

Exactly. He was wide open.

[Premier]

AWFUL CALL

We really need a broken record emoticon, just for you.

Just for the playoffs though, and when the Celtics get past the 2nd round.

I know I'm if I'm a Celtics fan I'd much rather have Udonis Haslem catching the ball 19 ft from the basket against two defenders with 2 seconds left as opposed to LeBron pulling up for a 21 footer with a hand in his face.

 

[Britney Spears]

FLOP

 

[EYLive]

flop

 

[wilked]

Bill Kennedy getting ready to foul Paul out. I will take even odds if anyone wants action on $20 that the refs end his nite

The bet comes in...

 

[modogg]

Paul Pierce

 

[timschochet]

James is so afraid of taking the last shot.

Exactly. He was wide open.

I can't believe you guys are ripping on him for this, only seconds after he tied it up with a clutch 3. What the hell does this guy have to do already?

at least in this case i think he doesn't want to charge headlong in to 3 guys, foul out and potentially miss the shot when he has an open Haslem 8 feet away.

Plus it would give you another chance to ##### about the officiating

 

[flapgreen]

Oh pathetic

 

[dickey moe]

Pietrus is absolutely worthless.

Garnett was at the top of the key, somebody else was under the hoop and he was being well guarded. They completely sold out on him not getting to the basket.

 

[Mark Davis]

Pietrus couldn't hit from 3 feet.

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

Some of us are haters that eagerly await any excuse to bash James. Why would you take that away from us?

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Double overtime and 3 more Celtics foul out, Miami wins the game closing out the Celtics bench.

 

[dickey moe]

Pietrus Daniels is absolutely worthless.

Shoot the ####### ball instead of looking for Udonis ####### Haslem who is being guarded by KG and shadowed by another defender 19 ft from the basket with 2 seconds left.

 

[mr. furley]

what's the consensus opinion of Chalmers? not just as a PG but as an NBA player?

also, Marquis Daniels isn't paralyzed?

 

[wilked]

Now I've seen it all...

 

[Alex P Keaton]

Awww, poor Lebron fouls out finally.

 

[timschochet]

I dunno man, that's a pretty cheap foul.

 

[wilked]

Makeup call

 

[Mark Davis]

Pietrus first contribution going to the floor with James.

 

[flapgreen]

Holy ####!

 

[wilked]

Makeup call

 

[HellToupee]

Turn those machines back on!

He was tripled teamed. Shut up.

 

[Ministry of Pain]

1st time ever Lebron fouls out as a Heat player...wow.

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

Is that James' first career DQ?

Again, if I'm Doc Rivers, I'd much rather have Haslem catching the ball 19 ft from the basket guarded by KG with 2 seconds left than James pulling up for a jumper.

That's fine. You got a Haslem fadeaway from ~ 17ft off the dribble with KG's hand in his face instead. You'd rather have that look?

 

[Encyclopedia Brown]

Pietrus, wow.

OHSNAP

 

[encaitar]

Wow, how is Wilked going to ##### about reffing in this series anymore?

 

[timschochet]

Wow, Pietrus with 2 huge rebounds, but they still can't get a bucket.

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Boston is gonna take this...

 

[wilked]

Wow, how is Wilked going to ##### about reffing in this series anymore?

Take it easy big guy...

 

[wilked]

Helluva game so far

 

[timschochet]

Chalmers didn't need to foul there. Wade could have gotten back and defended.

Rondo can't hit em, I think it was a smart foul

 

[Kev4029]

Wow, how is Wilked going to ##### about reffing in this series anymore?

Clearly a bunch of bad calls against the Heat don't matter to him, he'll still ##### about Pierce fouling out after he bowls over Battier.

 

[Britney Spears]

I read his lips: "No. I'm Joe Crawford."
