Gave us a call w/ Mozgov and then we blow it on the other end

Terrible late-game offense has become a pattern

He was bound to do it eventually

QUOTE (Middle Buffalo @ May 10, 2015 -> 05:00 PM) Whenever I watch basketball, I can't get over the amot of traveling. Not just the Jordanesque extra half step on every drive. The shuffling of feet and changing the pivot foot is what gets me. That, and LeBron takin 2 steps between dribbles. Taj has had some mind-bending footwork in this game

These passes in the paint are no good

I'm not loving the personnel management in this game. We've had a little too much Niko for as little as he's being used on offense

That was a yucky bailout call for Kyrie there

Went from one of the best stretches of ball we played all year to completely flat. Time to mix up personnel

Cavs are gonna want to get LBJ back in there

What a fun first quarter. I remember we talked early in the series about why LeBron doesn't just take it to the rack every possession. Wind was the main explanation we came up with. But you saw it in the first quarter. Even mighty LeBron can be stopped if he gets too reckless

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ May 10, 2015 -> 02:36 PM) AAA? Jeez let's at least consider AA, and even that is a bit much probably. His lack of baseball pedigree calls for slower progression through the minors, not faster. There's an extent to which you want his real age to match his level, but he's behind in his baseball development. The Sox have nothing invested in him so it isn't like they need to have the pick paying off dividends before some arbitrary deadline, so no use risking him or anyone else in pushing too fast

I'm surprised how mortal Bryant's numbers look after how impressive his first week or so was. The main stat I'm looking for with him is K%. It's at 32% right now. I'm doubtful that he'll ever get below 25%, which puts a lot of pressure on him to hit a bunch of homers to be elite

QUOTE (Brian @ May 9, 2015 -> 05:58 PM) Nba says the correct no call was made on Lebron with 3 secs left. Ok. You have got to be s***ting me. Why say anything at all? That erodes the confidence I have in the league. Just saying it doesn't make it true, NBA

You don't lose attention for specific types of voters with proportional voting, they get more attention. A voting bloc that might comprise 5% of a state suddenly matters because that gets your party pretty close to a seat (or it does get you one, depending on the seat and specifics of the system).

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ May 8, 2015 -> 10:51 PM) This x 1,000,000 They will just not call James with a foul no matter what he does. That was some blatant ref s*** in the 4th, and I'm one who b****es about referees but that outright disgusting. Against all that garbage, the Bulls still found a way to pull it out, I'm so proud of these guys The way he attacked Rose with 7 seconds left was like a man who had no fear of a foul call

I still don't think we can win the series if the calls are going to go this way. I'm not going to say they're trying to f*** us, but they're f***ing us nonetheless

f*** you refs for not making a call there. I hope Thibs lets the officials have it post-game

Well at least they swallowed the whistle there. Wait, nevermind, he tossed Jimmy to the side, it should have been an offensive foul

Great play there. You're coaching for your job now, Thibs

You can't call those touchy fouls on the ground with less than a minute in the game unless they are truly egregious

You cannot fail to call the foul on LeBron in the previous possession and then call that on Jimmy. That decides the game

LeBron doesn't foul people, what don't they understand

We've had terrible offensive possessions late in games throughout this entire playoffs

QUOTE (Jake @ May 8, 2015 -> 10:26 PM) If I was the GM I'd release Kirk tonight just so that Thibs couldn't play him anymore Short of that, I'd fire Thibs if we lose the series
