Now Hibbert takes and misses a deep shot.

Awesome. I like this new game plan. Take your bigs who can't shoot worth shit and have them shoot from the perimeter.

**Jace** · 12-01-2012, 08:29 PM

Get these awful Kings off my television.

Controversial statement: I find Ralph Lauler's "BINGO" more annoying than Eric Reid's "KABOOM."

Yeah. I meant that Watson and Bogans killed the ball movement by the Nets. They had little to no effect on the ball movement by the Heat. CJ was horrible. He played lackluster defense and killed their offensive synergy. That doesn't change because he hit 2 shots.

If the Nets would have hit 4 of the 7 free throws they missed in the 3rd quarter, it would have been tied going into the 4th. Gerald Wallace's 2 free throws fell so short I felt bad for him.

Once the dynamite CJ Watson/Keith Bogans backcourt came in the game to start the 4th, the ball movement ground to an immediate halt and the turnovers started to escalate. Also, that team really misses Brook Lopez in crunchtime. He's a reliable free throw shooter and the team's go-to scorer in the halfcourt.

Of course they miss Lopez. I thought we were talking about the game though. Let's not talk about favorable calls. The Nets got them all game. LeBron was even getting battered at points without getting calls. Everyone outside of Miami will write this off to homerism, but it was blatant. Meanwhile the Nets were getting a ton of touch calls, if even that. Humphries was garnering them extra possessions with ridiculous flops. I can't remember any of that for the Nets during the Heat's run, and it's possible the Heat got some I glossed over mentally during their run, but at worst it evened things up in that category.

Actually, yes, Cole got 2 bail-out calls during that run that we called out on our board. I think I also recall a makeup call after a charge went uncalled against the Nets. A lot of awful calls all-around, but Nets have no business complaining since many went for them.

**R-Star** · 12-01-2012, 08:37 PM

We're talking about the Pacers and Warriors. Not some stupid game that already finished.

**Jace** · 12-01-2012, 08:39 PM

Tsk tsk George Hill. Cardinal sin.

**Jace** · 12-01-2012, 08:40 PM

Hey, Indiana. Don't let Klay Thompson hit any more shots. For some reason, I hate his stupid face.

We're working on it.

Maybe we'll try to get Paul George to rub off on him.

0 points at the half.

The blatant flop when Dwayne Wade jumped backwards and got the offensive foul call on Joe Johnson ring a bell? That one would be a flop fine if anyone other than Wade did it. Also, Lebron climbed Humphries' back on his lay-up in the 3rd. And don't forget the blatant push-off when Mike Miller got that offensive board after Lebron's missed free throw. It was ugly out there.

**R-Star** · 12-01-2012, 08:49 PM

Dwyane Wade flopping? Yea right, liar.

**Jace** · 12-01-2012, 08:49 PM

Indeed. But I hope you really don't think one couldn't go back and name at least as many egregious calls/non-calls against the Heat. You can do this for any game. Citing the referees mistakes is pretty silly unless it was clearly lopsided. Shouldn't even be a discussion point for this game.

And I think that JJ charge was the makeup call I was speaking of.

**Jace** · 12-01-2012, 08:53 PM

NBATV should have backup plan games. Switch to IND/GSW. This shit is ugly.

Some teams deserve no national games. When your arena is called "Sleep Train," and pieces of it fall onto the court during games, you deserve to be on that list.

**R-Star** · 12-01-2012, 08:55 PM

Ha. Sleep train arena.

Its true.

**R-Star** · 12-01-2012, 09:00 PM

Golden State tearing Indiana up to start the 3rd.

No timeout. Lets just sit back and hope everything gets better Frank.

**R-Star** · 12-01-2012, 09:03 PM

12 to 5 run to start the 3rd. Finally a time out.

I'm starting to lose faith in Frank Vogel.
