NBA game 5.......

[wayne1218]

you still have avoided my comments about wade being fouled at the end of regulation.

I didn't avoid it but ESPN and everyone else has. Why? Because it's the Finals and they should let them "Play" it out without a whistle every 2 seconds.

Did i mention Mavs in 7?

No, fixing a game (IMO) has to involve players because the refs for obvious reasons couldn't blow every call and make it work. A fix has to involve a player controlling the ball.

Mavs in 7

If you think stern is telling the refs to make it hard for dallas to win then that is trying to fix a game imo.

Im sorry you cant form your own opinion about the play....so once again wade went to the line earlier in the game when devin harris did the same thing griffin did but because it's the last play the refs should officiate the game different?.....that makes alot of sense.

A fix has to involve players buddy. That means it is pre meditated and they go in knowing they will win or lose. Refs have to hope for an oppurtunity to "Help" the team to gain an advantage.

My opinion was that was a "Play on" play. No foul and i was mentioning all the press because they seem to agree with ME!

griiffin sliding under him and still moving his feet is a blocking foul.

No it is not because if Dallas misses 80% of their shots than NOTHING was fixed. Same with Miami if they miss 80%, the refs just couldn't make up for that poor play to matter, therefore they don't have the same control as a player to "FIX" a game. They can try but no guarantee's it would happen. They "Helped" late in this one.

Mavs in 7!

[kbsooner21]

kinda looked like wade lowered his shoulder into him also, so it was a good no-call. imo

dallas missing all the ft's is insignificant because he would still be trying have miami win the game. I dont think it would matter if the "fix" is succesful or not, the fact that stern is trying would be bad enough.

funny they called the same thing a foul earlier in the game

One question:

Do you think Stern looks forward to possibly handing the Trophy to Cuban? Yes or no.

of course not.....cuban is a dick to stern....but that doesnt mean he is gonna tell the refs to fuck dallas.
