All they are talking about is how they think Delaney blew the call and LeBron should be on the line for 3 free throws. What a couple of asswipes! They just hate the Spurs so they are grasping for anything to make the Spurs look bad.
That does sound pretty desperate. Even if Lebron goes to the line, he isn't making all 3 of those shots. Then, even if he somehow did, Cavs still aren't winning the series (and probably the game itself.) Lebron did the best thing by downplaying it because the result is going to be the same and if you in the post game, you end up looking like Steve Nash.
They think LeBroom can make ALL those 3 FTs?
Because I think he'd miss ONE. And it would only embarrass the king
Haha - Lebroom. Nice one.They think LeBroom can make ALL those 3 FTs?
Because I think he'd miss ONE. And it would only embarrass the king
I'm just glad Verlander threw the no-no last night, or this would be ALL the talk on sports radio.
It was a completely unwatchable game and I feel bad for the LeBrons, especially after how they handled the issue post-game (with class). A win is a win, but that one was crappy all-around.
On M&M, they just report the "big" news and neither are basketball enthusiasts...so of course they glaze over the mediocrity of the entire game and about how the Cavs missed open shot after open shot that would've kept them from being in that position at game's end.
EVeryones taking SVG's take that it was in the act because he was making a shooting motion. But if you watch where the whistle should have been blown it was too early. SVG is .4ing us on that play, he never started the clock from the time the whistle should have blown.
That ref was trying to save Lebron by giving him the shot at a 3 instead of blowing the whistle for 2 FT's. Mark the tape.
And yah I agree with the le: They are idiots, for a whole mul ude of reasons.
In two years, none of this will matter anyway. All anyone will know is the Spurs have the paper weights to back up their fat fans overconfidence.
cavs fans should be glad that a whistle wasn't blown, because if so it would have been before the shot and 2 free throws, not 3.
LeBron didn't put the ball back on the floor after the contact. Continuation has been called for a whole of a lot more ambiguous plays....that would've been a fairly easy call if it was made.
I'll agree with this....the talk would've been "choke" if the foul got called and he didn't nail all three. That's not a way LeBron or Nike would've like to go out either.
It was before the attempt so it would have been 2 and not 3 free throws. Besides given James's history of choking at the line did Cavs fans really want him to take game tying free throws?
Yep. I agree it would have been continuation and he would have gotten 3. The refs weren't expecting him to get the shot up that quickly, which is why they let it go (though I'm suprised they didn't blow the late whistle).
It's what Lebron gets for jacking up a horrid shot because of contact without a whistle when he had time to get up at the line and try a decent shot at 3.
Probably would of hit a nice air ball, anyways.
I'm amazed that Bruce made such a stupid play...We're very fortunate #1 That it wasn't called and #2 (even worse) that it wasn't called and the subsequent shot didn't go in. Bruce would really have been a goat. I wonder what the was going through Bruce's mind?
Lebron admitted he wasnt fouled in the post game interview..........

I wouldn't listen to Mangirl and Meatball in the Morning's take on basketball. Neither one of them has a clue. Meatball usually has a good take on things during football season, Mangirl is useless, I'm sure when they were picking teams as a kid he was usually the last kid picked.
What was going through his mind was foul LeBron before he could take a shot, which he did. It just wasn't called.
But there would have been no continuation given to LeBron.
@ "mangirl and meatball"
It looked to me like a continuation play. There was no dribble and he had already started making his move for the ultimate shot. Whatever...I'm glad they didn't call it and we won.

I like Mike & Mike, always have. Even if they saw a foul on the last play (which is true, there was), that does not make them tools. They're only journalists. Personally, I like them to take an opinion, makes life more interesting.
LeBron argued the call when it happened. In the interview he was being professional and not putting the blame on the last play for losing the game. He did the right thing in that respect, because they missed too many open opportunities and it shouldn't have come down to that last play....but LeBron thought he was fouled, don't let the post-game fool you.
The best way to handle sports talk radio is to turn it off. It's like old cheese, it stinks and it should be ignored.
LeBrick was fouled, no question. But that's not why they lost. They had a golden opportunity to take last night's game -- all they had to do was make a couple of shots. But they didn't. In fact, they were worse. Therefore, they lost.
M&M, like most of the media, just want to see a well-played, interesting series.
Let's not get a persecution complex. The world is not out to get us.
