it really is. AND he's missed quite a bit of his free throws. He could be over 30 points right now if he made them.

edit: strike that, he actually made most of them. But still, yeah, he's playing amazing.

TakingBackSunday · « **Reply #5161 on:** April 28, 2012, 04:57:33 PM »

oh my god NBA-gaf is just humiliating right now. It's one thing to say the refs were awful; they were indeed. But most of them are even saying Lebron didn't even play well and only made like two good shots.

Get the fuck out of here.

Sorry, Cajole and Beezy.

So I'm not just being a biased Knicks fan? The refs are complete shit today? Cool.

That Shumpert injury looks serious too.

Stoney Mason · « **Reply #5165 on:** April 28, 2012, 05:33:42 PM »

Crushing.

Although this doesn't say much beyond this game. Miami is capable of doing this to a team like the Knicks.

Stoney Mason · « **Reply #5166 on:** April 28, 2012, 05:35:31 PM »

I might skip that Pacers-Magic game because its probably gonna suck and come back for the Mavericks Thunder.

TakingBackSunday · « **Reply #5167 on:** April 28, 2012, 05:38:47 PM »

yeah today has been zzzzz so far. won't change until tonight maybe.

Stoney Mason · « **Reply #5168 on:** April 28, 2012, 05:44:33 PM »

Chalmers annoys the fuck out of me when he tosses the ball to Joel Anthony like he expects him to do something with it. If you pass the ball to Joel expect it right back. That's the correct move for Joel to make.

If you watch the heat a lot like I do, you see it so often it pisses you off when Chalmers does it.

TakingBackSunday · « **Reply #5169 on:** April 28, 2012, 05:49:37 PM »

according to rachel nichols, Rose is out for the rest of the post season. Yikes.

Unfortunate. I really did think this was the Bulls year. They looked so good. It's now Miami's for the taking at least coming out of the east.

makes me excited for what I think will be an amazing bulls celtics series. obviously love watching rose play, but it'll most certainly go to seven games I think.

Assume for a minute that everything that Sac fans said about 2002 Lakers/Kings Game 6 was completely true. I don't think there was anything wrong with that officiating, but let's allow it for the sake of argument.

Also assume for a minute that every conspiracy theorist was right about that game. Stern made the calls to the refs.

This Heat/Knicks game would still be a completely different level of corruption than that game.

This game is the most corrupt fucking thing that's existed in the world since Silvio Berlusconi abdicated.

from gaf.

lol

TakingBackSunday · « **Reply #5175 on:** April 28, 2012, 06:12:49 PM »

Regardless of how awful the refs were in this game (they absolutely were), the Knicks committed 27 turnovers. Maybe 3 of those were questionable charge calls. They were going to be spanked regardless.

Knicks haters aren't even trolling today. This feels worse than last year.

Indiana with a chance to send a message and sweep the hapless Magic and they are getting beat on their home floor. Not a good sign.

I should apologize for comparing them to NHL officials. That's just going too far.

I like how ESPN's main poll is now "Do you agree with Tom Thibodeau's decision to keep Derrick Rose in the game with the Bulls up double digits late in the fourth?"

Come on, really?

What's wrong with that pool? Maybe I'm missing something. I would assume most people were saying "no."

Dallas is such a well coached fundamental team. No matter how much of a downgrade they are this year, they just don't fucking quit and they do all the little things right.

You don't know how much I appreciate that since I watch a lot of heat basketball and don't generally get to see those qualities.

With hindsight, Rose was going to suffer that injury at some point in the playoffs anyway. Thibs did nothing wrong.

:/

I really want the Mavs to win this series and then suddenly tear through the rest of the Western Conference to make another appearance at the Finals, but I just don't believe they could do that even with a series win against the Thunder.

On the other hand, I really want to Thunder to make it to the Finals and see what they can do, because I really think they've got a shot at winning it all.

So, lots of internal conflict here.

Flannel Boy · « **Reply #5211 on:** April 29, 2012, 12:04:42 PM »

Utah Jazz ‏ @utahjazz
Josh Howard is starting

Not like the Jazz were going to win the series anyway, but they're only making things tougher on themselves by starting a black hole who hasn't had a TS% over 50% since 2008-09.

OMG he's already 32. When did that happen. Tracy McGrady is only 32 for fuck's sake.

Stoney Mason · « **Reply #5212 on:** April 29, 2012, 12:46:30 PM »

The more I think about it, the other team that really benefits from Rose going down is the Celtics. There is no way they could have beat the Bulls before the injury. And now they potentially can. And I think they match up decently with the heat if Ray Allen can get healthier.

Stoney Mason · « **Reply #5213 on:** April 29, 2012, 01:30:24 PM »

Spurs looking good early.

Stoney Mason · « **Reply #5214 on:** April 29, 2012, 06:57:37 PM »

Lakers looked good although I think that has more to do with the Nuggets not being very good. I was impressed with the Spurs. Their offense was really efficient. They took almost no bad shots in their game.

Just watched the 4th quarter. The Grizz just stopped executing down the stretch. Zach Randolph had an awful game.
