2016 NBA Playoffs Thread [ARCHIVED] Basketball • Page 198

I really hate to go there, but I can't help but feel like this is on Canadian customs.

 

Four days on ESPN about how Lebron should get more calls hut because he doesn't fall down more he doesn't. Now he falls down and ....

Like make up your fucking mind. Should he not get the call or should he? Jesus.

Like fuck.

 

Rolling to the finals in either conference is pretty rare. Bound to have at least one bad game.

 

I mean, I'm the first person to call LeBron out for flopping, but the contact with Biyombo clearly sent him to the ground there.

 

This loss isn't a big deal for the Cavs, assuming everyone stays healthy. At this point, a sweep would have given them too much rest (in my opinion) before the GS/OKC series ultimately goes 6 or 7.

 

And I've watched more Steph games than a anyone ... dude throws tantrums and has flopped on all kinds of threes.

 

It'd be hilarious if the Raptors just took over this series. That'd be the most perplexing turn of events I've ever seen.

Which is why it'd never happen but its fun to dream

 

Cavs hold'em under 100. Way to go D.

 

I just got home from work and saw the score. Slightly perplexing.

 

I had a busy day and just checked the score... what the hell happened?

 

Kevin Love: 1-9
Kyrie: 3-19

 

Raps deserved to win that one. Cavs led for 48 seconds in that game. Team fouls in this series are pretty funny to look at through 3 games. Raptors need to get inside more and stop playing from the outside only. This thread is full of Cavs fans so no one will agree with me but the officiating has been questionable at times against the Raptors that's for sure.

 

Agreed about everything you said here.

 

Shit. Should just be an anomaly though.

 

I don't think the officiating has been any worse than any of the other games I've watched in these playoffs.

 

Cory Joseph, in particular, played great defense on Kyrie. But they both missed a ton of makeable shots, which obviously doesn't happen very often.

 

They get no respect from almost anyone it seems it's crazy. Really hope they can get JV back in the lineup. Being without their starting centre is def a big loss.

 

Fair point, but the officiating in general has been very questionable for the majority of these playoffs.

 

Fixed.

 

Toronto has not shot a free throw, in the 4th quarter, in the 3 games vs the Cavs. Is that really true? Even though the Raptors won tonight, this was one of the worst officiated game I've ever seen. What a slap in the face to basketball purest. The NBA has taken the joy out of the game.

 

Could not disagree more with that statement.

 

Probably because the games were over before the 4th started in the first two games and the Raptors spent most of the time missing outside shots instead of driving to the basket.

 

Yeah just a funny stat.

This might be the cutest kid I've ever seen.
