That was an awesome shot by LeBron and I'm not even a basketball fan; in fact I really don't care for it. I was wondering how you LET LeBron get the ball though, he would be the guy I would double team based on my limited NBA knowledge.
Yeah it makes you wonder, especially how well Denver prevented Kobe from getting the ball at the end the game before.Quote:

Let's go ... uhh ... team that's playing the Lakers ... I mean Nuggets. Let's go Nuggets!
Denver really blew it, I mean how hard is it to throw an inbound pass? Jesus. 2 games it came to that. But I swear my mom doesnt even like basketball and she was asking why the refs always call fouls on the white team and not the purple. lol.
lol ESPN wants to see a Lakers-Cavs finals.Quote:

Jesus Christ, I pray to you. Teach the Nuggets how to inbound the ball.
Its really difficult to overcome the ticky tack calls that were being called on them in the 2nd half. Which is what I hate about the NBA, back in the Jordan ERA and prior it was physical and the refs let them play, now they are so inconsistent it is ridiculous. One Quarter, they play physical, the next, an elbow in the back while in the post gets a whistle, its brutal.Quote:

The inconsistency of refs picks up in the playoffs. It's gotta be embarrassing for David Stern to see such bad officiating.
The problem is they put in rules that encourage more scoring, and less physical defense, and players are so quick nowadays its very difficult for the refs to call it consistently and see everything for that matter.Quote:

Thats how the Nugs need to play, I hope they can keep it up.
