2327585, Brooklyn at Miami - Game 5 || #Kang
Posted by Vex_id, Wed May-14-14 05:09 PM
On the heels of #Kang stealing hearts in Brooklyn:

https://vine.co/v/MXuEmIW3XW0

Can the supporting cast help close out the Nets?
Since, you know... "The Miami Heat will go as
far as Dwayne Wade carries them in the playoffs" ~Skip Bayless 3 weeks ago.

Let's see if Wade & Co. can continue to carry LeBron.

This team has serious flaws this year.

This series is one play away from being tied 2-2
with Miami in the pressure-cooker in game 5 right now.

There really hasn't been all that much
separation between these teams in this series.

I still think Indiana gives Miami hell in a long
series that may come down to a game 7 in Indy.

Miami is looking like their regular season record
indicated.

they are taking 'let them play' to a whole new
level - particularly when it comes to a final play.

Still, if they were going by letter of the law - that would've been Miami ball....but upon seeing the replay and the clear foul, they
awarded Brooklyn w/ the ball. That was the right call - and at the moment - given the circumstances - that was a favorable call for Brooklyn.

Posted by LA2Philly, Wed May-14-14 09:36 PM
That should have been Miami ball. Both last night's and tonight's referees were out of their allowed scope. Either call fouls when they happen or make the right replay call. As it stands, in last night and tonight's game, the refs have done neither.

doing that shit

Actually the Nets organization need to be reaching out to the community a little more I feel. At the WI Day parade etc.

They did work at big events I went to through the last couple years but they could do a little more

Also, I like how they complained about BK fans after seeing Toronto fans whiling out, but then you see Heat fans waited until after the half to show up for a potential closer at home smh
2327789, That should have been Miami ball
Posted by LA2Philly, Wed May-14-14 09:31 PM
As the rule stands, you can't use replay to make up for missed calls. It's getting silly with how the refs refuse to call fouls yet then try to make amends for them on replay (and even that isn't making amends, you take the guaranteed free throws over another play every time)....just call the first foul and you'll avoid the entire situation.
2327792, Right - but I think it's a good thing when refs do this.
Posted by Vex_id, Wed May-14-14 09:36 PM
I actually thought giving the ball back to
Brooklyn in that situation was the just call,
even though it conflicts w/ the letter of the law.

Sure - it should have been a foul, but they've
been missing fouls in final seconds all playoffs -
but under this situation - shouldn't they be able
to exercise some independent discretion and at least
mitigate the damage from the missed call?

-->
www.realmdynamics.com
2327795, It's a slippery slope to allow non-calls to determine things imo
Posted by LA2Philly, Wed May-14-14 09:41 PM
That's a very grey area that wouldn't even need to be broached if referees just called blatant fouls.
2327797, Would you be for refs being able to review fouls in final moments?
Posted by Vex_id, Wed May-14-14 09:44 PM
Obviously that would be met w/ backlash, but that
would allow them to *really* get it right. Perhaps
a coach gets to throw 2 'flags' per game to review
a play - for whatever reason - be it a question
of possession or whether a foul occurred. Maybe
you can only do this in final 2 minutes of quarters.

It's highly unlikely, obviously - but I think the
point of replay should be to mitigate/neutralize
errors from missed calls.


-->
www.realmdynamics.com
2327802, Not for reviewing foul, undecided on opening scope on OOB plays
Posted by LA2Philly, Wed May-14-14 09:53 PM
I'm not for reviewing fouls because that would turn into a mess (and the final 2 minutes are already slow enough with the replay calls, teams are getting so many huddle opportunities, there's no natural flow to the game. The NBA is a sport that involves players having to make quick-decisions and that often times separates the best from the rest, that gets nullified when you have this many stoppages) but I'm undecided on allowing refs to judge whether a missed call changed the OOB call because although it doesn't double penalize a team, it also means that refs can swallow their whistle even more and try to make some amends on replay...when in fact, awarding a team the ball isn't nearly the same as calling a foul and giving that team ft's.

but given your stance on being against reviewing fouls, that
means that you would leave the refs handcuffed to mitigate
damage from a missed call, simply because of the letter of
the law? I def understand that awarding a team possession
isn't the same as a foul & two free throws (when you're in
the bonus) - but would a more appropriate/just outcome be
to strip them of possession, too? I don't think that's best
for the game.

Where the foul directly and clearly impacted the player who touched the ball last, and thus the ball is rewarded to that team. The problem with that is that leads to another grey area/interpretation....what is considered direct impact? Something that definitely needs to be addressed. I posed the question on OKP back in 2010 after an incident in game 3 of the finals vs Boston in which a Rondo foul led to the ball being off Kobe...but the ball was still rewarded to the Celtics. They missed the ensuing shot but that possession potentially could have changed a pivotal game in a finals. PJ, in the post-game, said the same thing about how the NBA needs to look at how the replay is viewed but nothing came of it.....as usual, until something ridiculous happens like the OKC call last night, the NBA won't look at it.
2327804, Kang & Wade giving considerable respect to Pierce & KG
Posted by Vex_id, Wed May-14-14 09:55 PM
in post-game conference - especially LeBron as
he reflected back to Cleveland days when he
matched up against 3/4 all-stars (PP, ray, KG, Rondo)
and realized he needed more weapons.

Also credited those guys for pushing him to the next
level and referred to their "championship DNA".

Let's see if KG & PP can be gracious in defeat,
since this is their last chance to not be overly
salty.

I won't be surprised if Pierce ends up lobbying for a roster spot on the Heat if Bron doesn't opt out since he's a free agent. KG is most likely going to collect his last pay check & retire w/o acknowledging Bron & 'em.
2327893, gor a lot of love for KG, but that shit is wack...

you ain't the only one that hurts after losses, dog. Fuckin Blazers got worked and all stayed around to exchange love and dap with SA. Stop bullshittin. This is kinda why it is still pertinent that Ray's hand was on he and PP's neck. Dude is STILL swole about him leaving.

The calls by the refs were so inconsistent, its maddening. Joe Johnson drives against LBJ, no foul. LBJ drives against Joe, automatic foul....SMH.

I'm a huge Nets fan and Ray Allen was automatic throughout this series and Bosh killed us with corner 3s. But Miami isn't a great team this year, you've got Bron and then role players.

| can't wait to have Brook Lopez back leading this team.

And while I (used to) love C'mon Deron Better has any NBA player ever underplayed a $100 million contract like D-Will. Its been criminal watching him perform this season when you know how good he was and can be.

The trick to rendering Ray & Bosh ineffective is to make them play D. One of the reasons why the Pacers gave them trouble in the post-season was b/c Lance & West took their legs out by running them ragged.

>| can't wait to have Brook Lopez back leading this team.
Dude is on the Yao career trajectory...just hope he can be a 3rd wheel on a contender b/c dude isn't built to carry a team.

He needs a change of scenery. He's playing like Baron Davis after he signed w/ the Clips....he ended up signing w/ the Warriors & revived his career.

The two last losses were the most disappointing really

Had the game in the bag last night, and really, it's absolutely true that D Wills seems to shrink in crunch time.

Joe Jesus can't do it all by himself
