Damage control from PSY, would have lost regardless,even refs couldnt save them.

PSY WHERE MAH MONEY?!?!?!?!?!?!

gimmy ur avi first, than vag's.

i don't even feel it because lebron fouling out is such a rare thing.

 

[MiamiWesker]

Hey Heat fans still looking to the finals?

Already made plans to go to one game so yes.

 

[Fjordson]

probably because west didn't fall on his ass like a baby back bitch.

Also because that's Lebron "I don't know how to flop" James.

 

[Tragicomedy]

It's ugly and fucking pathetic. Flopping, arm locks, late whistles, broken shot clocks, ill-deserved technicals...just let them play.

Yeah, and the Pacers played pretty poorly, too.

 

[Black Mamba]

Oh haha I don't recall him passing it.

Still battier only made it cuz the whistle blew.

 

[Syphon Filter]

gimmy ur avi first, than vag's.

i want vag to go first.

 

[Cloudy]

That last foul on Bron was really cheap. Pacers might as well forfeit game 5

 

[Future PhaZe]

Guys LeBron needs more help

 

[dalVlatko]

Zach Lowe ‏@ZachLowe_NBA 8m
By the way, Mike Bantom, the league's VP in charge of supervising officiating, is at the game tonight. So, fun trip for him.

It all makes sense now

Stern made the call but the refs were scared because Bantom was there

 

[Emwitus]

He didn't dribble again. The fuck ate you talking about?

On the catch he made two steps and came to a stop. At that point,if you stop, you can't pivot or dribble...what the fuck were you watching?

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

Already made plans to go to one game so yes.

Maybe win the series first?

 

[TheKaeptain]

lmao Hibbert really did cut a great promo.

 

[Feep]

Yeah, and the Pacers played pretty poorly, too.

Plenty of flopping on both sides. It was like a Real Madrid match out there.

 

[BadAss2961]

paint your face clown

lol. This is a disgrace.

Anyway, Heat should be ashamed of themselves. They've got no business being in this situation.

 

[Sho_Nuff82]

If I were Steve Kerr, I'd wear my championship ring to every telecast with Reggie.

Reggie would just be like "at least I punched Mike back."

 

[iamshadowlark]

You can't take two steps and stop, then dribble again. You either take two steps and dribble or take two steps and stop followed by a pass or shot.

Learn your fucking calls. "Dribbling again" is a double dribble.

The call looks like this

Also you can't take two steps and dribble.

 

[thekad]

On the catch he made two steps and came to a stop. At that point,if you stop, you can't pivot or dribble...

Wrong

 

[obijkenobi]

lmao Hibbert really did cut a great promo.

What did he say?

 

[Zeus Molecules]

Also because that's Lebron "I don't know how to flop" James.

Him fouling out might of been the refs (and stern) telling him to "shut the fuck up" and stop drawing attention to how they favor him with calls. A smaller version happened when the media took note of how Lebron didn't get a foul call for six games and the very next game Lebron get's a tech called against him.

 

[Psychological Intellect]

Maybe win the series first?

Already won

 

[Crisco]

Hmmmm I guess the Heat were built for the regular season.

 

[linsivvi]

Fuck the haters. Heat in 5.

lol. Heat in 5 still

Heat in 5

Welp that's that.. Off to Indiana.

Keep my prediction of Heat in 5.. Mr. Allen needs to go to the gym and start practicing 3s cause its killing us..

Heat in 5.

 

[Vire]

Salt.

3 losses in two rounds? Seems over for Miami.

 

[Syphon Filter]

Salt.

yea just fraud fans that aren't real heat fans.

 

[Vestal]

The fuck kind of basketball do you play??! When you receive a pass in motion you are allowed steps until you "gather" yourself and still maintain a pivot foot.

Have you ever seen a player receive a pass in transition come to a complete stop and then start his dribble?!?! Same thing.

IT WAS SUCH A HORRIBLE CALL.

I am actually going to freaking record it and post it, cause it was horrible.

 

[Cloudy]

Tie game with about a minute and change left. Chalmers jacks up a fadeaway on the baseline after dribbling the whole possession. Miami was in the penalty. Awful...

 

[Tragicomedy]

OR...he committed six fouls in the game.

 

[Pimpwerx]

Refs were terrible!

But they're not the reason we shot under 40% and they shot over 50%, either. I wouldn't be mad if they defended us well and just shut us down. However, how pivotal were those missed Rio open floaters and layups now? In a low-possession game, every possession counts. Whatever.

The foul trouble was again a big factor. I felt better when we played shitty defense, but still stayed out of foul trouble. This playing shitty defense, while fouling is not a good mix. I'm not gonna blame the officials. They weren't the reason we missed so many open shots. Anyway, I just gotta say...


FUCK YOU SHANE!

Sorry.

I try not to get mad at our guys, but he played 17 minutes of suck. UD's statline is somewhat deceptive, since he played during minutes when we couldn't score.

Still, I'm honestly not worried. I believe we need to manage the fouls better. Getting early fouls on Bosh and Wade is a disaster. I'm really shocked we haven't gotten that under control yet. Getting Bron into the post early is also really important. I'm not sure why he abandoned it in the second half. I guess it's the ankle, but still. No radio tomorrow. Another day of incredible productivity awaits. PEACE.

 

[Emwitus]

Learn your fucking calls. "Dribbling again" is a double dribble.

The call looks like this

What the fuck kinda answer is that? The faster yo shit super team is out the better.

A player who receives the ball while he is progressing or upon completion of a dribble,
may take two steps in coming to a stop, passing or shooting the ball. A player who receives the
ball while he is progressing must release the ball to start his dribble before his second step.

Learn your rules too buddy.

 

[Future PhaZe]

Pacers would probably have a 3-0 series with a consistent shooter at the 1. Fisher, Jimmer, anybody.

 

[BadAss2961]

Salt.

lol, salty Heat fans. Last team in the world that can complain.

Refs got them back in this game.

 

[GaimeGuy]

Fuck the haters. Heat in 5.

How does this work?

Do that.

 

[RoboGeorgeForeman]

I really wish we had gone after someone like Reddick instead of Green.

Edit: Having Granger would be pretty key too.

 

[GamerSoul]

I think Spo needs to do something with his lineup. Battier is giving them absolutely nothing. Ray Ray hit some shots today but he is has been pretty off too. Go to Miller, Anthony, and James Jones if you have to. And for the love of god tell LeBron and Wade to stop trying to kick out for open 3s or jumpers for Bosh or Haslem.

True, I can't understand Battier and Ray's slump. Like you hinted at, I think there's just a few plays where Lebron should just drive to the basket and exert his presence BEFORE they lose the lead/tie. Worst case is that he'll get fouled and go to the line.

 

[TheKaeptain]

How does this work?

I've been trying to figure that out since he posted.

I'm teaching you basketball.

 

[Cloudy]

Didn't see the trip earlier. It was a good call

 

[duxstar]

Love the TNT commentators lol

 

[darkside31337]

Seeing the replay the 6th foul was definitely a good call. Totally blatant trip.

 

[cr_blah_blah]

Gasol looks like a bitch in water doing the doggy paddle

 

[ph33nix]

the Heat are going to have to hit more 3s. there's really no way around it

Didn't see the trip earlier. It was a good call

Seeing the replay the 6th foul was definitely a good call. Totally blatant trip.

Not like either of you would give a fuck if it was a bad call

 

[fertygo]

Damn I completely miss the game
How is it?

I was thinking the same thing.

The salt on Lebatard will be too much for me. Just going to wait it out till Game 5.

U mad cause you had to watch two "super teams" crumble in one season.

All because you cheer for two sides of the fiercest rivalry in pro basketball.

 

[obijkenobi]

Are Heat fans clamoring for the return of Joel Anthony?!

 

[GamerSoul]

I've been trying to figure that out since he posted.

Time travel obviously.
