NBA: ***Official 2017-2018 Playoffs Thread***

JR did steal that possession so it’s not like he cost them anything on the whole. Hill could’ve made the free throw.

 

[jbindm]

LOL J.R. Smith. WTF was he thinking?!

 

[ISUAlum2002]

Let's go to the replay and reverse that one. All ball.

 

[ISUAlum2002]

Yeah, this one is over now. Uncalled foul against Green on that drive followed by a Thompson 3. 5 point swing there.

 

[FarmClone]

This is over. JR you suck.

No, but you want to do what you can to steal the win and GTFO instead of giving the Warriors new life. They might win this by 10.

Good try Cleveland. They got hosed down the stretch with that charge/black call.

 

[CloneGuy8]

I feel deflated and I'm not even a Cavs fan. Poor Cleveland

of course

 

[CychiatricWard]

Also, JR, smdh man. Elementary stuff right there.

NBA is rigged

 

[jdoggivjc]

NBA owes Cleveland an apology letter.

 

[Doc]

Might be some fines forthcoming after the Cavs talk to the media.

 

[CychiatricWard]

I don't care either way, but it does feel like Cleveland got hosed tonight. NBA being rigged just makes sense, honestly. Referee makes a call that favors the wrong team, oh wait, let's review that and change it.

 

[jdoggivjc]

It's almost as if the refs are reviewing this to inflict maximum damage on the Cavs.

 

[CycloneErik]

How unusual for Green to be in the middle of all that.

 

[awd4cy]

LeBron just needs a better team. A shame his performance is wasted.

Mentioned it earlier. Career performance for LeBron, but it doesn't mean anything because the Warriors have the next 5 best players. Of course, it doesn't help that his teammates melted down in the final seconds (missed FT to take the lead and Smith's lack of situational awareness) and the refs looking as corrupt as ever.

And it wasn't just that play. There were numerous times when a foul was called on the Cavs that were a clean block/strip and numerous times when a foul wasn't called on the warriors after obvious contact.

The refs bad calls in the end haunt a huge LJ performance. His supporting cast or lack there of comes into play again... But most of all the end of the game shows me how the Warriors egos are out of control, the way they finished the game was a complete joke, unless NBA finals put a new rule in for a 8pt shot there is no reason to push the scoring at the end other that complete arrogance... I will be routing against the classless Warrior for the remainder of the series though it will almost take a miracle with Cavs facing a few extra Warriors wearing Black and white each game....
