Pacers: Pacers-Heat FT disparity..

[jimbo]

One thing's for sure, George Hill is getting superstar treatment this series. I have no clue why.

Every time he drives someone breathes on him and he'll get a foul. Must be nice.

[HarlemHeat37]

I've said this all year, not just based on this series, search my history, tbh..

1. Lakers
2. Thunder
3. Grizzlies
4. Pacers

is the order of officiating bias in the NBA this year, tbh..

[whitemamba]

OP would suck venom out of Lebron's thigh if he got bit by a snake

Probably suck it out of yo momma too.

[spurraider21]

maybe if lebron/wade/battier stopped flopping all the time the refs would respect them enough to call the game fairly.

and shot clock violation? really?

[mercos]

Games 1, 2, and 4 seem fine, especially considering Indiana's size advantage inside. Indiana is pounding the ball inside, and Miami can't defend it. Didn't watch much of game 3, but if those stats are true that is an abomination. No team should be getting 44 free throw attempts in a game unless Hack-a-Shaq is being employed. Ain't nobody got time for that .

I don't think there's a conspiracy, at all, I'm not one of those s, although I do frequently complain about officiating..

This thread is just additional data to my previous thread, proving that Miami isn't anywhere near the Lakers or Thunder in "teams that get every call", which NBA fan seems to blindly believe..

Yo momma jokes? Really?

Miami has had more points in the paint by a substantial margin, try again..

Whatever reason is provided, an 8.8 per game FT disparity is massive, especially for a team that apparently gets all the calls according to NBA fan..

fast break points count as points in the paint. Try those stats iwthin the context of the game, the Pacers have been running legit post plays the entire series and the Heat are fouling them more...hence = more FTs.

I don't have a dog in this fight, just an unbiased observer.

Miami only has 4 fastbreak points more than the Pacers..

[Jacob1983]

Was Lecrab honestly trying to get the refs to buy that he was hit in the mouth on that flop?

[chunticakes]

Meh, i thought the officiating was fine.

That said, the officiating does not favor Miami which for some reason your average Casual fans aka kobe fan seems to believe.

vica kerekes ftmfw.

[HI-FI]

as great as Lebron is, he still does a lot of moves like this. what's funny is how West so quickly reacts with his own flop so he doesn't get in trouble.

[kidd_91]

LeBron is like the kid with chocolate all over his face but refuses to admit he stole the candy. He keeps saying he doesn't flop, but there are countless videos showing him flopping. I think the NBA office has had enough of his and the Heat's crap and are just calling the game how it is.

[romsey31]

Got this from a Heat poster on another board..

Game 1
Pacers: 32
Heat: 25

Game 2
Pacers: 32
Heat: 26

Game 3
Pacers: 44
Heat: 28

Game 4
Pacers: 33
Heat: 27

Now, before some smart-ass comments on Indiana's style of play and their tendency to pound the paint, here are the points in the paint numbers..

Game 1
Pacers: 48
Heat: 60

Game 2
Pacers: 40
Heat: 40

Game 3
Pacers: 36
Heat: 52

I understand Joey Crawford's job tonight was to extend the series, since the Spurs already swept, you can't have 2 sweeps in the conference finals, and more Lebron on TV is always good for ratings, tbh..however, this was an issue even before this game..

Hopefully games 5 and 6 are officiated fairly, tbh..

Lmao. A heat fan complaining about calls. Unbelievable!

Btw you forget to mention how you get your points in the paint, mostly from uncontested bird man and wade back door cuts., and fast break points. You guys have zero post play or offensive rebounding.

Btw pacers had 50 points in the paint compared to miami's 32 last night

[racm]

Indiana gets more free throws because that's their style of play. Ground and pound.

Like San Antonio Miami prefers the open shot to just pounding it in the post. Easy to generate FT/FGA if the team's scoring methodology involves a lot of contact, and post-ups and isolations do not freeflowing basketball make.

[Phillip]

this series has definitely been officiated to favor indy heavily

[Ghazi]

Harlem Heat asking if anyone remembers a lopsided series as far as officiating worse than this

2006 Finals, Kings/Lakers, ton of others, etc.

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

I like how everyone in this thread is presenting arguments Harlem has already addressed in the OP.

[Clipper Nation]

Harlem dropping truth bombs, but it won't matter, people have simply decided they hate the Heat so every call they get is Stern rigging it for them, tbh..... it's the same thing as how every casual NBA fan yells "FLOP!!! FLOP CITY!!!" every time a Clippers player is legitimately fouled....

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

Refs aside, this series shows how bad of a coach Philli really is.
