Yea but the rust will be gone. Spurs in 6
Get ready for a tough series with Miami. That is what this is all about(OP crying about the refs) anyways and nothing else.
Cry me a river. Giving up on your team before the Finals start! Pathetic!
No surprise at all given that they took the Heat to 6 games last year with almost the same squad and Paul George not being as good as he is now.
Well.. last year they had Danny Granger. This season, they did well in the regular season without him but it was always going to be difficult to beat the Heat on paper without their best scorer and no adequate backup for George, despite the latter's spectacular development.
Then, the Heat have improved from last year. They have diversified their offense, become a strong defensive squad in crucial minutes of their games and have also got better in their role player section with the addition of Ray Allen.
Taking all this on board, it is still a surprise that the Pacers are just behind 1 game after 5 games in the ECF.
Imagine if OP was an NBA player? Dude would average more ejections/suspensions/fines than points/rebounds/assists, tbh.
Some can make the Rudy Gay comparison with Granger in that the Pacers win percentage improved without him and that Paul George wouldn't have developed nearly as quickly had Granger still been healthy.
Indiana has no offense other than George and Hibbert. Occassionally George Hill will contribute.
The Spurs will space the floor on Miami and cause trouble for them as well as be effective against Birdpoop and Haslem on the inside.
Lebron can do all his damage, the Spurs just need to make sure the other players (Bosh, Allen, Battier....oh, and Wade) are not big contributors.
Spurs in 6!!!
It is bull he didn't get ejected, imo.
Funny how everybody thinks offcials control games by the number of fouls when actually its more about timely fouls or missed calls, which kills a teams momentum. Basketball in the NBA is a streaky game.
Foul calls can be even at the end of the game, but the true art of favoritism occurs by calling a play for a particular team at a crucial point in the game or just when the other team is getting ready to make a run. Indiana gets as many or more calls than Miami, but Miami gets the better calls.
If David Stern would have pushed someone over next to Joey Crawford he would have been ejected...
Danny Crawford touches the game with lighter fingers.
Officiating will be among the last of reason why the Spurs lose or even win. It'll come down to whether Wade is coasting or not. If the Heat come into the Finals with Wade playing at the level he is now the Spurs become the favorites. Unfortunately I'm fairly confident he's going to play loads better.
He`ll get his penalty after video review. He shouldnt play in g6. Knowing the league, there wont be Psycho T also.
How many shots did Nazr knock down after he got ejected from that game, asshole?
Birdman cheap-shotted Hansbrough. Then he turned back and got in his face. Then he gave that two-handed full-force shove, out in the open. And THEN he physically wrestled with a ref who was trying to separate them - that alone should have been an ejection and suspension of 1 game. And then, after the ref got him all the way back to the bench, he STILL kept the barking up, which normally would be more than enough by itself to get a second T called.
Forget everything else that happened. Just that wrestling match with the ref, and the continued barking afterwards, would have gotten any player on most teams booted from the game. My complaint has nothing to do with the Spurs - it's about the ridiculous inconsistency in the league. You want to defend something indefensible? Go right ahead and prove what a dumb you are. Every sports outlet in the country is going to agree with me tomorrow. And many, if not most, will be asking why Nazr got booted and Andersen didn't.
if hansbrough pulled a Lebron and fell like a , he could have gotten Birdman tossed. but since he stayed on his feet it became a double technical
I didn't say they rigged anything against the Pacers. They let a player stay in the game, when any other time he would have been ejected. And then they got caught up with the crowd in the third, and changed the entire momentum of the game with some very inconsistent whistles.
The final straw for me last year, that made me say "enough"? It was the Pacers - Heat series in the second round. Nothing to do with the Spurs, or the Pacers, really. Just the fact that the refs absolutely ed Indy out of two games with some unforgivable whistles. After that, Miami got Bosh back, and they were unstoppable in the Finals. But they never got that far on their own.
Last game, the refs "missed" that ball bouncing off the rim, and didn't re-set the shot clock for the Pacers. All three refs didn't see a ball hit the rim and bounce upwards? Sorry, not buying it. That doesn't mean they have to be intentionally throwing games to Miami. But they see things a certain way too often. Maybe it's just expectations, and they think the Pacers don't measure up, just like a lot of the people posting here. But that's why they play the game.
When I was in college, I worked for a couple of guys who owned an auto parts store. They used to wager on professional wrestling. I'm talking about hundreds of dollars on a single match, and multiple matches per night, on the ing WWF. They were ignorant suckers, sort of like you. (Why the are you even here, instead of some Knicks forum?) There were too many calls in last year's series that I just couldn't pass off as bad luck for the Pacers (sort of like the missed shot clock call last game). There were a few other reasons that I finally had enough, and when the boring offseason comes around, I'll discuss some of them. But tonight, that ref wrestling Andersen back to his bench, and then letting him continue the barking like he did - he was way, way the outside the norm for NBA officiating. And he wouldn't have handled it the same way if it wasn't Miami at home. He just wouldn't.
So you will stop posting on Spurstalk?
Please?
2 questions:
1)Why the is Chris Bosh shooting 3's
2) And why is Chris Bosh averaging an ancient Antonio Mcdyess level of rebounds?
Carry on
I was going to bring this up.
That annoys the crap out of me. It bothers me even more he's making them for some reason. Ugh
man the up you pussy, gtfo with these pms threads.
i'm not gonna watch basketball anymore that'll show that corrupt league
please
Watch Birdman get suspended for Game 6.
I am referring to the team making shots, Nazr getting tossed should not be a big issue considering his role on the team. Take your crying ass and go watch Tennis, pussy.
