Refs remain undefeated

Blame the refd if you want but at the end of the day this is on the Pacers. What an absolutely miserable 4th quarter

I love the game, but hate the refereeing at times. Nothing wrong with that

That kind of positioning is allowed just about every play for every team.

The dude pushes & grabs Lebron's jersey on every possession. He should foul out by the 2nd quarter every game.

So that excuses a blatant flop when the guy is playing defense as everybody else in the league plays? I can't speak for other plays, but for that play, it is absolutely ridiculous that LeBron dives for the call.

Yeah, guys. This game was fun, but even with the Pacers trying, they can't contain the Refs, they're too much.

good first round battle. big plays. historic performances. goats (not g.o.a.t.s.) to heroes in TT/maybe love. dramatic swings. crucial calls to stoke the fire (hope the league revisits some at the fundamental level). desired outcome. aside from pacers fans, destiny wants cavs-raptors. and more LBJ on tv.

I wonder what they'll do when Lebron is gone? :lol:

Smith pulling turner, Turner stood his ground. Turner pulled Smith, Smith fell back. Exaggerated but it worked, and ultimately it's a letter of the law foul.

Big concern that the next round will be a Flop-a-thon

You nuts? The Cavs are getting calls everywhere for nothing


don't bother with trolls. He'll have his 4 alternate accounts And1 every post of his and appear "knowledgeable" to new posters.
