imo thats the silly thing. lbj is just doing it for that next time, which is smart, but makes the nba look sillier

TO THE BONE.

I'm not a lebron or heat fan but that was a foul imo

Damn Pacers. Miami playing a desperate Memphis team tonight and Indiana is resting its starters.

No. According to the NBA rulebook, as long as you touch the ball first, touching the hand counts as touching the ball (the hand is part of the ball).
The only thing you could call was the slight hold before he went up, but they won't call that at the end of a game.
|
To me it looked like he hit wrist/hand and then the ball. But it was close. Can't blame the refs too much.
LeBron was being a bit of a bitch about it but you've got to suck it up and move on.

Houston's defence is so bad without Beverly or Dwight.
|
Memphis wins over Miami.
Indiana retakes the number 1 seed, Memphis is a game behind Phoenix for the 8 spot.
Getting down to that wire guys.

I totally accepted the Pacers getting the 2 seed. Then the bench beats the Bucks, which honestly isn't surprised because the Bucks.... And Miami lose to Memphis. Guess we still have a good shot at the 1 seed.

Crazy huh? Hopefully Vogel's little psycho-experiment works.
This LAC-OKC game is so fast.

I think it was the right move. One, the starters have played a bunch this season and have played hard on the defensive end this season. No doubt that is tiring. Plus with all the crap going on with them, i think benching them was the right move. And the bench had a legit chance vs the Bucks tonight regardless because as much as we all laugh at the 76ers, the Bucks are worse.
Plus we still have the match up with miami on friday. If the Pacers end the season with wins over Miami and OKC, no one even thinks about the horrific month of March they had. The East is crazy i guess.
|
I don't know if it was the right move, but it was the only move. They needed a nuclear option.
|
That Griffin "wtf stare" at Perkins, hilarious
|
I spent most of that game thinking that OKC does pretty well despite having no discernible offensive system. Then that kind of came back to bite them in the butt. I also spent most of the game feeling LAC was overmatched, but they put up a fight.
|
Pacers could really use that #1 seed. The Hawks are a first round walkover.

yer. it's pretty bad, but this is a schedule loss, b2b at mile high. there was a stat on clutchfans that showed visitors with 0 days rest and denver with 2 days rest gives them a 80%+ increase in winning percentage. crazy

I'd rather #2 seed in east. Playing Toronto in round two is way more preferable to Chicago or Brooklyn.

True, but Toronto and Chicago are tied right now. Toronto has the easier schedule but you never know.

Yeah I guess, and even a good chance of hitting the bobcats if they face and beat toronto (3-0 season series).

If anyone needs tickets to game 5 in Toronto, let me know.
