Questionable shot...but I guess.

I thought so at first too. But on replay it looked like a good look. D12 set him a great pick, and Shard likes that spot. A bit quick though.

DirkFTW · 05-26-2009, 10:16 PM

nice!

mary · 05-26-2009, 10:17 PM

It should be real easy for LeBron to hit a game winning shot here.

CadBane · 05-26-2009, 10:18 PM

Lolz. Let's see what he does after that "foul".

mary · 05-26-2009, 10:18 PM

What crap.

CadBane · 05-26-2009, 10:19 PM

God's a LBJ fan too.

CadBane · 05-26-2009, 10:21 PM

Lol, Vaginao clearly fouled Howard on that lob. And the LeBron ft's were a total joke, he slipped. Rigged.

Howard was all over him. That coulda easily been called offensive.

The Lebron foul was a lil' weak but there was contact. I've seen worse get called, but they could have let 'em play on that one.

Sorry but no, you're wrong. There was absolutely NO contact on LeBron's "foul". Dude straight up tripped on his own because he was leaning so far forward. There is no argument for a foul there. None whatsoever.

Dude was kinda ridin' him. That's a "let 'em play at the end of the playoffs" play, but not a no contact play.

Watch it a few more times. I'm confident you'll see it differently. LeBron straight up fell.

mary · 05-26-2009, 10:22 PM

I wouldn't have called that one either.

Howard was hooking Side Show Bob's arm..not the other way around.

Exactly.

Fidel · 05-26-2009, 10:23 PM

it´s probably time to stop watching this crap.

there are other sports with actual refs.

chumdawg · 05-26-2009, 10:25 PM

Would this game please end already so that I can get back to "Fourth and Long," which I missed that night? Cripes!

I miss the days when that "drive"...wait, I think that needs double quotes!!...""drive"" by Lebron doesn't get your ass bailed out by free throws with a second left. Good grief.

Rick41 · 05-26-2009, 10:27 PM

I threw up in my mouth.

F the refs.

Thespiralgoeson · 05-26-2009, 10:26 PM

I'm amazed they actually called that foul on Pietrus. If that were Dirk driving to the hoop, no way would they call that.

DirkFTW · 05-26-2009, 10:26 PM

Is there a worse dribbler in the NBA than Hedo?

WOW! That turnover could haunt Lebron for the rest of his career if they lose tonight.

mary · 05-26-2009, 10:31 PM

I know I'm getting ahead of myself, but a Denver/Orlando finals would just be hysterical.

I guess it's time for Nike to put the puppets away.

Or make a Melo and D12 puppet crash the party.

CadBane · 05-26-2009, 10:31 PM

8 turnovers. Clutch.

FINtastic · 05-26-2009, 10:31 PM

Orlando is looking like they are gonna win this anyways so I guess the ball don't lie.

I don't know what Lebron is doing with these passes.

Choking. Because he's a one of a kind talent, but he's not clutch.

Would you mind telling me who is clutch then?

Kobe, Melo, Dirk, Billups, Duncan, Manu, Hedo, and as much as I loathe him, Wade.

Ray Allen too.

I dunno. Their shots look pretty easy to me. I mean, I could probably hit most of them in the gym... with my eyes closed.

So all these turnovers and missed shots...and now jump-ball...are clutch?

First of all, no one said he was MJ, just that he hit a big shot. You've somehow spun this into something bigger, and I'm not really sure who you are trying to make your point to.

Second, you are basing this off a huge two game sample size. Whoop-de-doo.

Third, the whole "clutch" thing is ridiculously subjective. Everyone makes mistakes "in the clutch". I've seen all of those guys you've listed miss big shots or do stupid things down the stretch. I hate how players get labeled "clutch" to be honest because it's just not that simple.

chumdawg · 05-26-2009, 10:31 PM

That's a great play by Turkoglu, and a great offensive sequence by the Magic. They are demonstrating that they are the better team.

CadBane · 05-26-2009, 10:34 PM

Stupid foul by Shard. Howard had him pinned.

CadBane · 05-26-2009, 10:40 PM

Surprised they didn't bail him out there.

Fidel · 05-26-2009, 10:42 PM

LeBron isn´t clutch because his offensive game is limited. He can take a straight up jumper or run full steam to the basket. That´s basicly it. He´s a great passer rebounder defender and all, but he´s not among the best scorers ever when it comes to different abilities to score. MJ was in a whole other league in that regard.
