Dwight Howard gets F-5'd and there's no call.

You told me to call you when LeBron hits clutch 4th quarter FTs. *Ring*

Those were clutch for the tie. He makes more in the 4th and his team probably wins. Big throws there after a completely bogus call.

Dude, that was a foul on Dwight Howard if it was a foul on anyone.

Props to James, i thought he'd miss one of those free throws

If they were going to call a foul there it had to be on Howard yanking on AV's arm. Everything after that was caused by Howard's initial foul.

I don't think either the LeBron foul or this one was a foul. Good defense in both cases.

That was good defense.

big floppy just held his ground while dwight tried to pull him down

Veryjoe was undercutting Howard.

As I said, the Cavs will win this one. The refs will not allow them to lose. That foul at LeBron was BS

Wise1 · Post #2531 » by **Wise1** » Wed May 27, 2009 3:25 am

VeryJoe has made winning plays all night. A very underrated other.

If you are watching on DVR, watch right before that when Howard is yanking on AV's arm.

Yeah, Howard yanked him into him.

Also, like Wise said, Varaejo has easily been the Cavs second best player. He has had a very good game.

how could the pietrus foul have been bs? pietrus got his body into the ball handler and took him down

Kerb Hohl · Post #2535 » by **Kerb Hohl** » Wed May 27, 2009 3:26 am

Agreed. Lebron wasn't fouled. There was absolutely nothing Pietrus could do there.

I don't think they should have called one on Sideshow Bob, however close. But if you're going to call trash late on Pietrus guarding LeBron, then call it the other way.

This is why I rarely watch the NBA anymore.

Yeah, the best team in the NFL and MLB usually win, and you don't like those fraudulent champs that barely sneak in, but I like watching a league where the underdog at least has a fighting chance.

An obvious charge or no call at best. He barreled into a backpeddling guy.

Wow, horrible pass by LeBron.

I don't have DVR but LeBron trucked Peitrus if anything. He was on basically a backward sprint. I don't think he bodied him.

VeryJoe > LeBron
