I aint a miami heat fan boy(LBJ era) since i cheer for this team since 95 when my fav euro player was playing there
The debates are pointles when it comes to LBJ and whole miami heat hoopla, i just avoid it since its pointles. Everyone is hating on lebron since he left and it is what it is. But ppl saying he is floping is just something i dont buy, sorry.

At least the crowd gave Shumpert an ovation as he was carried off. Good guys.

No what are you crazy? They have 33% shooting because they cannot make the ball in the basket as much as Miami. It's preposterous to think that anything then pure skill accounts for a team's ability to make shots. That's why home and away games don't matter at all!

They never had a chance to begin with, just accept it.

LeBron flopping isn't the reason why you are shootin 33%. You don't blame refs on your horrible field goal % or your complete lack of offense.

So you're saying because they never had a chance, we don't need fair officiating! Nice one.

I don't know how you read that from what he said lol.

My post was about how there was horrible officiating. Tien responds by saying it doesn't matter if there is horrible officiating, knicks would lose regardless.

Who said home and away games? Its about the continuity, how would you feel if you're constantly barred by fouls and dubious calls? Even though you laugh it off, its just not the same. And its not about everyone hating on the Heat.

I've been a sports fan for about 10 years with different sports teams. Montreal habs being my number 1 team. I've never once in my life complained about a loss because of refs, and we're talking a few hundred games.

That's the nature of the game, the variance of it. Sometimes refs give you a break, sometime they don't.

What makes reffing irrelevant in this game is that Miami is dominating the Knicks on every single facet of the game. This blowout game is 80% Knicks fault, 20% ref fault. Get over it.

I probably should've added that I think of them having a chance as fair officiating, so they can decide themselves whether they win or lose. My last point was reaching pretty far though.

Poker is a game based on skill, and theres tiliting, what makes you think players can't tilt in basketball? Do you even play ball?

He was commenting on the knicks having a chance, and how you should not attritube the loss to the refs. He wasnt saying the officiating was ok.

Um, because he completely ignores the officiating in this game?

Oh it's ok if you flop since the other team "never had a chance" anyways.
In fact, let Lebron do whatever he wants, it's Heat's year anyways.

Again, you are reading too much into it imo, he never said the officiating was ok, he said that they were playing poorly regardless and that you shouldnt blame the refs for everything.

I'd be cool with that, but refs pushing the deficit along is lame.

A lot of butt hurt in this thread without looking at the overral picture.

Sure the officiating sucks, but don't be concerned about it. What the Knicks need to be very concerned about is how they are being completely and totally annihilated on offense. They have zero offensive capabilities.

Tyson playing like crap, Melo can't even get the ball near the post, Amar'e disappearing. Blame the refs all you want, won't change how badly Knick's stars are playing.
