The refs missed the charge call earlier that Duhon had agains Snow. It has been pretty fairly called. It was obviously a blown call, but they blew a call the other way too.

I didn't think Snow was that close to getting set on that play, but with Duhon, the foul was called. They just decided to take away the shot despite the fact that he was in the process of shooting the ball.

 

It's amazing that they're still in this game.

If he wasn't set then it is a defensive foul. There was no whistle. Although it was clearly a bad call against the bulls at the end.

 

Note: any team is still in the game in the 4th quarter against the cavs (ever since hughes went out)

I think the ref let it go because Duhon was backing off slightly as he was passing the ball, although I don't remember exactly.

 

And they tie it up just in time for me to switch over to the Office. Bah.

Gotta make your layups.

 

LeBron got a piece of it. And how far did Gordon go without dribbling there, was he past the 3 point line?

 

 

I must've missed that, I'm listening to music so I don't have to listen to the announcers. Plus I'm waiting for Mavs/Spurs.

 

And yes, that was an epically long time without dribbling.

Doug Collins when LeBron passes to Varejao: LeBron's gotta take that shot

 

Doug Collins when LeBron passes to Murray: You can't help off to stop LeBron

Announcers have a funny way of being hypocrites. I think that was a good help off that backfired. Murray is a bad 3-pt shooter.

 

Also, what happened at the end of the game?

 

The Cavs just won one that they should have one, then shouldn't have won.

Nocioni hasa really bad tendency to freeze late in games and then make stupid decisions. Skiles should have drawn up a better play. You don't inbound the ball to the 4th best passer and 4th best shooter on your team down 1 with 4 seconds left.

Exactly. Both were good decisions on LBJ's part. They mobbed LeBron and he would've been off-balance on the first shot.

Sounds like LeBron in the 4th quarter. He's probably the best player in the NBA (obviously debatable) during the first 3 quarters, and he has a way of turning into an average player in the forth. Case in point: That bad pass to Varejao that was a nearly a foot high.

Wow, that was wonderful, Nocioni.

 

Oh, imagine if the refs made the right call on the Duhon and-1 play at the end of the third quarter.

While I understand your frustration, it is impossible to say that they would have won the game with that shot.

I hate the Cavs. Never liked them before, was hoping they would collapse like they were starting to, thought this game would be the straw that broke the camel's back. Now I hate them more.

 

No disrespect Mike Aller, I like you as a person, but I hate your team.

 

Teams I hate the most:

 

1. Knicks

2. Pistons

3. Cavs

4. Wizards

5. Raptors (not nearly as much hate now that Jalen is gone)

Maybe not but points are points and that should've been called.

 

I refuse to blame the refs for these things though:

 

- Un-clutch FT shooting by Gordon and Hinrich

- Nocioni becoming brainless at the end of games

- Skiles not drawing up a play for Gordon to get the ball right away (not off a stupid two-pass)

- Flip Murray inexplicably shooting the best 3-pointer of his life when it comes late in the game down 2 to the Bulls

Cavs are not good. I like LeBron James, but man oh man, he is not clutch. He does not have that killer instinct yet. I also hate the Mavs, by the way. Very arrogant fans for never having done anything.
