They have every right to complain. They're facing a team with Shane Battier on it. My inner rage wants to punch that guy.Peeps wrote:the pacers have no room to complain about flooping. loved stephensons being punched by the hulk while ray allen was near him

Re: NBA Thread
The Heat didn't deserve to win that game shooting 39% and getting outrebounded by 20. The officiating was awful in both directions, it just happened to be Miami's turn to get screwed in the last minute and a half.

It was a travel. But it's a travel they rarely call in the NBA. Most "step back" jumpers are traveling.4/5 wrote:Omg that wasn't a travel. Unbelievable.

Re: NBA Thread
I've never seen that called. I think it got called because the move he made before his dribble looked so awkward and was very close to a travel. The whole thing looked awkward really, but it was only 2 steps and they always let guys take that little hop.turned2black wrote:It was a travel. But it's a travel they rarely call in the NBA.

The replay in the NBA is horrible. Maybe I'm just getting old but its all blurry to me. I can't tell who touches the ball before it goes out of bounds. In the NFL I can see individual blades of grass.

Manu gets called for this move a few times every year. He should, it's traveling.4/5 wrote:I've never seen that called.

Couldn't watch the game last night. Recorded it though. Can't wait to watch the flop fest tonight.

Re: NBA Thread
I hate to get on LBJ but It's embarrassing for the league that their best player BY FAR continues to do this and especially when he said this.
Of course Wade has condoned it, if you took flopping out, Wade is nothing more than higher price version of O.J. Mayo.It’s kind of the same as when people said I was overrated, I have the same response. I don’t need to flop. I play an aggressive game but I don’t flop. I’ve never been one of those guys. I don’t need to flop. I don’t even know how to do it. So it doesn’t mean much to me.
