Re: NBA 2009-2010: More ref complaints

Cleveland's excuse making is hilarious:

Yes, I'm sure this and Lebron's boo-boo are the reason why the Cavs aren't up 2-0. Sure.

Personally, I blame Savard's phantom bite.

I'm pretty sure you're making the excuses Jon.

Cavs knew the game was out of reach which makes Ainge's actions even more ridiculous.

I say the league fines him 200K. Maybe that will teach him a lesson.

You honestly think this is a huge issue? Really?

If Mike Brown or anyone else on the Cavs were freaking out over this, I can see where you would be going here, but I really don't.

If it was the other way around, you'd probably be whining all day about it.

All Mike Brown said was "if that's within the rules, then he's doing everything to help his team."

For those of you who were wondering what we're arguing about:

No, I actually wouldn't give a ****. Disappointing, sure. Worthy of a 200,000 fine, no ****ing way. Especially since Hickson sinks the free throw.
I hope you react this way every time Mark Cuban makes an *** out of himself.

Could you do me a favor and let me know exactly what I'll be doing at 7PM this evening, because I'm dying to know.

Man its nice to be able to get you riled up so easily.



Its an act of poor sportsmanship. A ridiculous act of poor sportsmanship.

The Bruins/Flyers series started at the same time as the Celtics/Cavs. The Bruins will be done with game 4 before the Celtics finish game 3.

Not really. Just having some fun today.

I'm not arguing with you there. My argument is that it's not a huge issue. Shame on Ainge, but I'm not going to get worked up about it.

As you know I refuse to agree to disagree with anyone. It's less fun. And you're smarter than Hokydad...

Re: NBA 2009-2010: More ref complaints

Well, what do the rules say on what distractions are allowed for a free throw? Certainly people waving their arms and thundersticks has never been ruled as illegal or called bad sportsmanship.

Throwing towels on the court by the actual players? Pretty sure that's never been ok.

This is true. But TBA is right that it's ridiculous for Ainge to do it. For my part I just enjoy arguing with people on USCHO. Because the last person do so came up with "you area clown".

I don't see where it goes on the court. It goes straight up and straight down, granted his seat is near the court but it never leaves the radius (or a better term) of where he is.

If it was someone other than him would we care?

Well it is him and I don't care, but you make a good point.

Does the GM of the opposing team usually sit under the basket?

Re: NBA 2009-2010: More ref complaints

This is a completely different Celtics team. They can legitimately win this series,.

Can but won't unless Lebrons arm falls off. The Celtics are gassed, Perk and Garnett didn't practice today. When your point guard is your best player, well, see Phoenix

Re: NBA 2009-2010: More ref complaints

Salvatore again tonight? **** the NBA. This guy should be in jail, not reffing a playoff game.

 

[walrus]

Re: NBA 2009-2010: More ref complaints

Salvatore must have made the Celtics suck last night . Its called Heart, the Celts(other than Rondo) have none

Game 3 was not evidence of my theory. Sigh.

Re: NBA 2009-2010: More ref complaints

Must be a new NBA rule, Lebron can do anything he wants, no travel, no fouls, do whatever

Re: NBA 2009-2010: More ref complaints

The officials are bad.

But the C's are good. So far. Then again, they've screwed up much bigger leads this year....

Re: NBA 2009-2010: More ref complaints

The officials are very bad. The C's are starting to crap the bed. SIgh.
