Good first q. Good to see officiating consistent from game 1 so far.

 

[HFCS]

Ray Allen can't have the ball enough for Miami these 2 first games, he and Duncan both impressing for their age.

Not really

 

[CyArob]

Wow! That was quite the acting.

The Miami Floppers

 

[MLawrence]

Terrible flop by Dwyane Wade.

 

[Goothrey]

Pathetic

 

[Cyclones_R_GR8]

Thats some great officiating.

No jimlad necessary

 

[Goothrey]

That one hurt too because it was ginobli's 3rd.

 

[CyJack13]

This is a man's game tonight, not going to win this by settling for jump shots.

 

[Cyclonesince78]

Are the refs that stupid?

 

[HFCS]

If you're going to reward wade for flopping into people on a shot, you have to give Green a four point try on that. Not sure if it's a makeup call but bad call the other way shortly after.

 

[CRcyclone6]

That was a quick eight pts by James.

Are the refs that stupid?

To be fair, Ginobli's hand was within 4-5 feed of Wade's head. That's just like making contact.
Very dangerous to have players near each other.

 

[HFCS]

Outside of his greatest-of-all-time relationship with the officials it seems wade should be the fourth or fifth option offensively. Lebron going nuclear but Allen and Bosh seem like much better options.

 

[Goothrey]

James went off, spurs had a pretty large stretch of sluggishness offensively. Spurs up 1.

 

[Cyclonesince78]

dflop's plan backfired

 

[CycloneErik]

I wouldn't be too tough on Wade. It must be traumatic to have someone's limbs relatively nearby while you're on the court.

 

[Cyclonesince78]

James tried to flop on that one. WTF

 

[Cyclonesince78]

never mind
