When it goes to Cleveland he WILL get the calls, and I'll complain Duncan is getting hacked every time he puts it up. I'm not saying he deserves the calls. True, his shot selection was poor this game but if this is in Cleveland he gets SOME of the calls. Calls = momentum. Look at my past posts this playoffs. I'm pretty consistent with my home court ref bashing. I don't care if the refs call it tight or loose. I just want a foul on one side of the court to equal a foul on the other side.
I actually deleted that posting, after seeing that he replied on the Horry thread. I couldn't figure out if he was bashing the NBA or just this match-up. This match-up is worthy of ignoring, other than watching one of the top 5 all-time players go about his business, and the best candidate for the next great player develop before our eyes.
Now that I read it, if any of you would like to read a longer, better-researched version of the above post, see Bill Simmons' column. http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=simmons/070607
To me, this has been the most unwatchable finals since Spurs-Pistons or Spurs-Knicks. Notice a common theme? SA just fails to capture the public's imagination the way the Shaq-Kobe Lakers or Jordan's Bulls.
I didn't realize you could push someone in the back while they shoot and not get a foul called. Oh wait, Bruce Bowen is just that dirty...I mean good. I loved the Lebron postgame sarcasm though.
it's been bothering me for some time now that i think drew gooden resembles someone else but i could never put my finger on it. last night it hit me: ray nagin. someone with more time on their hands should post those two side by side. maybe i'm crazy.
LOL, I've been quite busy lately besides you can't geaux wrong with that strategy!:lol: Another thought, I didn't realize the Pistons were that bad until this series. I really couldn't believe that wasn't called either, outrageous. Those refs should be reprimanded. Can't help but comment about this playing dirty situation. I have a new nickname for Robert Horry, Cheap shot Bob! I don't understand him or his attitude taking down Steve Nash. I was rooting for the Spurs also but it was hard after that situation.
