Moss Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 That foul on Rondo should have been a flagrant. Yep, bad call. I can see why the ref would not want to call it as it could be a game winning call for Chicago. If Miller would have done the same thing at the other end to Rondo it would have been automatic. No Spurs in the second round, Nuggets can beat Dallas! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Stewart Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 I don't know how anyone can root for this Boston team. What a bunch of shit talking, whining thugs. Garnett included. What is he jawing at the Bulls bench for? Name some other Celtics to back up your claim. It's the Bulls who are a bunch of assholes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Jules Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Name some other Celtics to back up your claim. It's the Bulls who are a bunch of assholes.Hey, they're all assholes, but Boston has a reputation for this. Garnett, Davis, Perkins, Tony Allen. Ray Allen's just a pussy. I thought he might cry when he got his 6th foul. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jakobnicholas Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Also, Pierce aside (although he's not my favorite either), I don't know how anyone can root for this Boston team. What a bunch of shit talking, whining thugs. Garnett included. What is he jawing at the Bulls bench for? That's funny, considering the Bulls are the team with Noah. In slow motion, it was easy to see that Rondo's foul was intentional. But live it looked like he was swiping at the ball. My question... Who would have shot the free throws had Miller not been able to? Based on Miller's brick, and his insanely pathetic attempt at slamming it against the rim (which he missed by a mile) demonstrated that someone else would have given the Bulls a much better chance at tying the game. Vinny should have told Miller he wasn't going to the free-throw line. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Vinny should have told Miller he wasn't going to the free-throw line.Noah's emotional and annoying, but he doesn't talk a lot of shit. Garnett shouldn't even be allowed on the bench given his actions the last couple games. Regarding the Rondo foul, be aware they do review the tape and can issue the flagrant based on that. They reviewed the tape and still missed the call. If a player can't shoot the free throws, the team can take anyone from the bench to do so. Also, if my 3 year old was on a basketball team, I wouldn't let Vinny coach it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bobbob1313 Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 How could they not call that a flagrant after reviewing it. Absurd. This Heat-Hawks game is ugly. If Wade isn't 100%, we look like a 10 win team. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Jules Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 How could they not call that a flagrant after reviewing it. Absurd.Well, they were also looking at the replay to review the time left. I can only assume that they were so consumed with the time on the clock that they didn't even consider the severity of the foul. If Vinny maybe got in a ref's face for once, it might have helped.

bobbob1313 Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 I mean on the review today that the league did. They can go back and give a flagrant after the fact, no? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gobias Industries Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 Ah, shit, I don't know. Good point. They can assign flagrants ex post facto. Of course, the NBA today just said they weren't going to do jack squat about the Rondo foul. Not surprising. I haven't seen the vid, but just from what I read pretty much everything thinks it's a flagrant but everyone knew that the NBA probably wasn't going to re-classify it as flagrant.

LouisvilleGreg Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 I really hope the Heat find a way to pull out this series, because who really wants to see the Hawks play the Cavs? But Lebron VS Wade, now that I want to see. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
