Sooo, who's getting suspended for Game 7 ATL V IND ???

 

[exzibit3]

Why? He PUNCHED a player on court?

It's amusing reading on Yahoo, there are so many ignorant and racist people on there/in America, and paranoid people talking about 'fixes' etc.
People calling Adams a 'no talent turd' and saying it's his fault Randolph got suspended.... Even one ignoramus called him a "European American" in a racist comment.

If ANYBODY punched anybody else, they deserve a suspension, doesn't matter what game is coming up.

It just didn't seem like a great deal of intent and not much of a swing in my opinion. It was just a common foul on game time and not even a technical foul. A shame for the Grizzlies.

Pacers up at half looks like they got this

 

[MJ23BULLS]

They better hold it together!

Turnovers killing them....Need to address that!

What a pass from Lance!!!!

 

[MJ23BULLS]

Here we go, Lance gets a tech over nothing...

Lets go PG, do what you do!

 

[GarnettFan4Life]

Paul George stepping up, 28pts so far good on him

 

[MJ23BULLS]

Pacers need to keep running the offense and not stand around waiting for the shot clock and then taking a forced jumper!

Run some plays and play basketball, keep playing or the Hawks will get back in this!

A tech over nothing? The play had stopped - the whistle for the foul had blown BEFORE the ball came off the ring and he STILL played that hard in rebounding it put others to the floor. Correct call.

PG24, 6 double doubles in the 7 game series the commentators were saying - wow, that's a nice little stat there and I'm sure most (like me) hadn't realized that due to their poor play!

LOL He wasn't doing anything other than playing ball....

He may not of heard the whistle and in fact neither did I....

I'm not saying it shouldn't have been called, just that it wasn't done with intent...

PG did well all series, glad to see him hitting his shot a bit more, but I don't want him to rely on it too heavily or he will fall apart like he's done some of this season....

His D-fence and rebounding are better than the previous few months too!


SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO glad I can finally relax....

Been a tough ride following the Pacers all year, but I had faith they could pull enough wins out of their ass, to keep them in the haunt!

 

[MJ23BULLS]

Now on to OKC-MEM!

I can't see OKC losing this game, I expect KD to go off and Westbrook to have a solid game too...

Surely it can't go to O/T again, OKC will win it in the 3rd or early 4th...

My predictions anyway..

 

[nichj99]

You can't play the ball after a whistle tho, the game stops as soon as that whistle sounds. Would be pretty rare for a player THAT close to the official not to hear the whistle, but benefit of the doubt can be given I suppose

 

[hairyangryfella]

I really don't understand some calls... Conley ducks into Fisher, puts up a shot, gets an 'and-one'. Fisher did nothing at all other than be there.
KD goes under for a layup, misses, foul comes "maybe he got his wrist?".
I feel they're calling fouls because they are expected, not because they actually see one...

That is the standard in the NBA and has been for decades....

Only things that changes over the years is who they decide to favour with those being called or not called!

 

[hairyangryfella]

Not enjoying seeing Westbrook keep driving, getting airborne, then throwing a nothing pass which Memphis intercept.

We all know he's flat out crazy at times and can be a lose cannon....

But we/you have to live with the good and bad until he either grows up (not likely) or moves on...

Either or....

But I don't see him being able to contain the crazy any time soon....


On the good side he's doing a hell of a lot off the ball that makes the difference sometimes...

 

[MJ23BULLS]

2/2 so far, Clippers will win making my day 3/3...

So yes I'm the best forget the rest...

 

[nichj99]

Wow! That's clippers v warriors is one of the best games this year. Awesome viewing!
