Happy for Ray, but I just can't bring myself to root for the Heat. How was that not a foul on Bosh at the end of the game?

Bosh smothered that sheet and Green fell down. And it was an illegal screen by Splitter to get him open on the cross court pass, too.
 
I hate you Ray Allen.

Popovich with an oddball performance down the stretch of this game, really baffling moves.

They haven't called an illegal screen in the NBA since, well hell, I can't recall ever seeing one:) Bosh certainly had all ball, but he crashed into him and landed Green n the bleachers. Any place other than Miami, and thats called.

Keeping Ginobili in might have been a loyalty move, but it sure backfired horribly.

One wiped out a Ray three in the 4Q of game five that would have cut it to five - and he was smoking at the time. It was the correct call - James moved.

Bosh didn't fly at him - he contested pretty much on balance and stuffed him. He did jump but he jumped with Green, who was drifting on the shot. I didn't think it was a foul, but on review there is some room for opinion.

Splitter moved a TON on the screen.

Since game 5 when they called one that cost Ray a three when Miami was making a last push. A call that pretty much stopped that push. This is just how it goes in this league with crazy ass officiating that often makes zero sense and changes games regularly.
 
Spurs had that game won, they missed a couple of huge free throws and gave up 2 huge offensive rebounds and Pop blew it taking Duncan out and keeping Manu in. Happy for Ray Ray but that was a ducking foul on Ginobili, it's a foul on anyone and Ginobili has been a star in this league, can't believe they swallowed the whistle. To make matters worse Lebron ran over the three point shooter at the end.

Lebron fouled out of Game 4 of the Indiana series on an (awful) illegal screen call.

And no, nowhere except Cameron would that be called a foul.

Trusting Ginobili when it looked like he was playing on a skateboard all night, having Duncan on the bench and giving up 2 offensive boards leading to 3s, not calling a TO at the end to get TP back in the game, it was like Vinny Del Negro on the sidelines out there. Pop and Manu were just a tagteam of errors out there tonight.
 
am I the only one who thinks the refs werent an issue, it was an alltime great finals game. At least the refs let them play.

No way they let the Spurs win the series on the line. Maybe Ginobli shouldnt have taken 4 steps on his drive into the abyss. They swallowed the whistle for the most part all game.

Bull crap. That was a foul plain and simple and the refs swallowed their whistles.

You Heat apologists disgust me. Ginobili got fouled, there's no argument about that. Popovich showed saint-like restraint not getting T'd up on that non-call. He knew he got jobbed.

im routing against the Heat and I dont think officials decided the game, I dont know about some of you but I actually enjoyed the game. Ginobili was running out of control and he did travel and just ran right into a death trap.

End of what? Not the game certainly. I don't think he was anywhere near Green.

It was Bosh, but I really haven't seen anything other than a guy shooting an off balance three and falling down when the ball got thrown back at him. The refs did a great job not giving a call to LeBron when Green stripped him as he fell. They could have invented a body foul there, but they didn't.
 
Ginobili traveled his ass off on that play, the no call on the foul evened things out
 
I love how they complain about the foul on Ginobili and ignore that the refs also missed his completely out of control 3 solid steps he took which would be a travel.

Ginobili clearly traveled on that play.

Please if they called three steps then half the drives would be traveling.
 
Pop was even mad at the Gatorade bottle in his press conference. And you have to love the "That's a European question isn't it?" Angry, angry Pop.

Ray got ball first and got arm on follow through. Would have been a soft call.

Agree, Ray's hand was clean on the ball and only his forearm hit Ginobili's forearm on the follow through. They having called that a foul all series. Van Gundy is clearly wearing pro-Spurs glasses when he comments about these calls.
 
Stop the whining - both teams have gotten a fair shake from the refs in this series.

It's 3-3 because it should be 3-3.
 
My game 7 prediction was correct I didnt pick a winner though
