Mikey no likey!

"In attacking the rim, he (LeBron) didn't get the call, especially down the stretch"

Imagine someone complaining about refs.

He got all the calls in the first half. Then the refs doing the one thing they have been consistant about all post season, of course being inconsistent, started going the exact opposite way in the second half.

WAH.WAH. that is what mike brown sounds like.

It looked to me that Z went over the back to put that shot back and score on the play before so I dont feel bad for them. They lost fair and square.

for a "no excuse team" the cavs certainly make alot of em.

Paul Pierce was fouled a few times and the refs didn't call it, but you don't see us complaining. That could be because we won though.

Not only that, what about the ridiculous flagrant he drew off of Cassell? The announcers were talking about how Cassell never went for the ball. Then they show the replay and Cassell had his hands all over the ball, but James pulled it away and Cassell's arm ended up on his shoulder. I especially liked the throwing back of his head and faking getting poked in the mouth that LeBron did for effect after the play. Ridiculous.

I think LeBron is amazingly talented, but holy **** does he play the refs for calls as a huge part of his game, which takes some of his luster away.

Mike Brown's a mouth-breather. Every time I see him on the sidelines his mouth's open with the same expression on his face.

He strikes me as the kind of coach most people think Doc is. Not very good. But because he was an assistant under Poppovich and has LeBron, he looks better than he really is.

Granted, the team he has is pretty ****...without LBJ that is a 25-30 win team, tops.

That was so obvious on the replay. LeBron must have a 'Best of Manu Ginobilli' collection of videos to watch for ideas.

Nobody got calls. That was good officiating. There were blown calls both ways but overall they let em play. Me like. Enough with pussy reg season basketball. Let em play.

Mike Brown=Erkel mixed with Al Roker.

Yea well KG was fouled by Joe Smith on the game winner, but there was no call so Mike Brown should just shut up

What about Sam getting kneed in the head by Z? I'm sure it was unintentional, but still.

It looked intentional to me. Z is **** 7'3" and I'm supposed to believe he couldn't step over Sam without making contact?

But Sam got FTs on another call on the same play anyway, so it balanced out.

Agreed

Too true!

Creepy but I was watching the game lastnight and my brother made the exact same observation.

I personally think Mike Brown moonlights as an Al Roker impersonator.

Agreed

Overall I agree with your sentiment. As I said before, only the flagrant on Cassell was a bad call. The rest of the game was good. Maybe a little *too* tightly called on both ends with all the ticky-tack ****, but OK nonetheless.
