Your team literally got 4 free points for what happened during a dead ball and your complaining about Hayward not getting a offensive rebound....after there was at least 4 shooting fouls called in favor of LaMelo where nobody even touched him the 1st half..
Cmon
They aren't going to admit to it lol. They can't get past the fact that justice was served tonight and for once, high way robbery was prevented.
Honestly, I couldn't be more happy. Between the Cavs getting a terrible call to steal the game after the Hornets did on something much worse, Jarrett Allen continuing to prove he deserved to be in the all star game (and probably will get in now after that performance), and Kevin Love continuing to come up big, this was a great win for Cleveland tonight. There's going to be pools of tears from Charlotte fans and that makes me happy. If you are all that petty that you didn't get an undeserved win, then I don't know what to tell you.

Stop being a homer. You didn't deserve to even be leading before that final call that gave Love free throws. At the very least, be man enough to admit it.
If you blame the one call for cavs blowing that 10 point lead, you’re being to lenient on your team.

Oh we definitely didn't deserve to win but it wasn't because of officiating, we have some all-time bad defensive IQ and we missed 8 wide open shots in a row in the 2nd quarter that probably decided this game
I just want the absolutely horrendous officiating against Charlotte to end, but like I said, we get scammed all the time, nothing new

I want to watch the whole game, not just 1 call.
From this call, I see a Cavs player already out of bounds before the whistle is blown and what are those 2 clowns on the bench doing in the first place? I don't understand what happened there because the score doesn't change after the replay, obviously if they gave the Hornets the basket that's insane, but without seeing the entire game it's hard to judge whom the whistle favoured

Jesus, all the superteams are faltering this year.
I was supposed to be an absolute guaranteed Lakers/Nets finals this year, and both teams look like they will be in the play-in.

So wait… they gave them the 3?
Technical foul I get. 3 pointer after the whistle?

In what way am I admitting to trolling? I am admitting that you guys constantly bitching makes me happy. But in no way am I saying that I agree that the call on Love was worse. That would be idiotic and defy all aspects of logic. I may be a homer, but I'm at least willing to admit when my team benefited massively from a terrible decision/call (looking at you Draymond game 5).

First off, Garland didn't even play in this game. The fact that they even won is incredible in of itself.
Second, this would have been a one point game had it not been for that call. It happened with four minutes left in the game. Don't try to tell me a four point undeserved play didn't have a massive impact on the game.

Should just be a tech imo. I agree the shot counting was wrong, I’m guessing that ref didn’t know the out of bounds was called?
Lesson for players on the bench though, don’t be stupid

Nobody with any basketball knowledge thought the Lakers would be in the Finals after the Westbrook trade.

Why does Ed Davis pushing players AFTER the whistle mean Charlotte is allowed to get four points?

Yes, because Davis pushed him. After the foul was already made and whistle was blown.

Have to say, it's pretty satisfying watching Kyrie get his dick kicked in like this, knowing Harden wants out.

I had the Lakers as a #5 seed. Did not expect them to suck this badly. Nets just stink without Durant and the turmoil only adds to that.
I'm waiting for the Bucks to see if they look much better without Brook but right now Warriors and Suns are the 2 best teams.
And if the 76ers can pull off a Simmons trade, that would change things as well.

Should have been only a technical foul. Completely unbiased view.

Re: Friday 2/4 Game Thread
Celtics and Raptors have gone win for win and loss for loss recently. Everytime I think we're going to jump them in the standings, they win. Both teams have leap frogged the Hornets now and Nets aren't far ahead.
