LeBron went almost 3 games in the Bulls series without getting called for a foul and only 'committed' 6 fouls the entire series.

 

Michael Jordan didn't foul out of a playoff game after 1989.

That's because he's not an idiot.

Nice double flop with LeBron/West:

Hopefully they both get fined. If it happens, it would be the first Heat player to be caught for flopping the entire year.

 

Says he doesn't need to flop in the Bulls series and isn't that kind of player.

 

Comes out yesterday with statements saying flopping is a fair tactic and part of the game.

 

Flops against Indiana. Calls out refs for missing calls even though he says willfully trying to deceive them is fair game and engages in said flopping in the very same game he is complaining about the officials blowing calls in.

Bosh is a shadow of the player he was in Toronto

 

 

Not really IMO. He was "the guy" at Toronto and not much else. You put him on any good team and he is what he should be... a good 2nd/great 3rd option on offense. I know some people used to compare him to KG when he was at Toronto, but Bosh really has no post game and his defense always been meh to me.

He used to be a much more aggressive rebounder, and he DID have something of a post game on the Raptors. Now he's almost exclusively a perimeter oriented player. It's like he's trying to play a small forward game in a power forward body

Pacers just have some inopportune concentration lapses. That was clearly of James so they get lazy and Allen walks into a corner three then they get stupid with the ball.

When you have LeBron and Wade handling the ball 99 percent of the time, you dont stick a guy who's a good jumpshooter down on the block and tell him to hang around.

Anderson's chances of playing next game might be diminishing if this tweet from NBC Sports Network is any indication:

 

@NBCSportsRadio's Rob Simmelkjaer spoke to @NBA Commish David Stern today & said that Miami Heat forward Chris Andersen "should have been ejected" for his shove against Tyler Hansbrough."I don't know what be was doing" said Stern. "A serious review of his activities is called for." Full interview on NBCSportsRadio.com tomorrow at 8am ET.

 

Usually when Stern comments on something he means business.

Def. the right move. Anderson should've been ejected in the last game and probably be suspended for Game 6 as well. I like the energy he brings for the Heat and being an enforcer, but the dude is just too wild and goes too far at times for no freakin' reason. What was the point with pushing Hansbourgh? Seems like he's getting crazier as the playoffs goes on.

All that ink is being slowly absorbed into his brain.

Regardless of what happens this year I don't think Miami makes it back next year. With Rose back next year and the Pacers getting a little bit older.Then you factor in Miami's emotional toll these last few years.The last team to go to the final the last 4 years was the Celtics in the 80s. There's a reason that teams don't get there 4 straight years. There's a toll emotionally and physically. By next year they will be in a little bit of trouble.

 

You know sometimes people say to me 'gosh if only Jordan wouldn't have left you would have won 7 straight titles, 8 straight titles, whatever it was and I just laugh.

 

I wasn't there for the first 3 but after the second three we were absolutely running on fumes and I think the reason we had that great stretch for the second 3 was because Michael left the game recharged his battery and came back with avengence, to do it over and over and over like that years in a row, I think in todays era with so many games and so much pressure on today's media I think it's virtually impossible.

Apparently starts around 12 min. I didn't listen to it, just stole the transcription from another site.
