Eastern Conference Playoffs - Second Round Discussion Thread

Re: Eastern Conference Playoffs - Second Round Discussion Thread

That's because your team is always on the side that benefits from the refs.

Ziiiing

Any series involving LA/SA/BOS is gonna involve excess theatrics and female dog tendencies. Kobe/Pau, Duncan/Manu, PP/KG all act like females.

Re: Eastern Conference Playoffs - Second Round Discussion Thread

Oh the jokes I could make out of that statement about the refs, but I could easily say im just as tired of seeing them do such a bad job

You're the first person I thought about when Pierce got tossed. Got no words for it...

Re: Eastern Conference Playoffs - Second Round Discussion Thread

Oh, i'm not saying that it was the Celtics fans complaining. Just a broad statement about this years playoffs.

Now I can see if we're talking 2002 Lakers/Kings bad officiating, but my god. Not one team has lost that didn't deserve to lose in this years playoffs.

Re: Eastern Conference Playoffs - Second Round Discussion Thread

Hey man, win or lose, these guys are consistently inconsistent

Being tired of hearing us talk about without recognizing that they are giving us the reasons to say something is dishonest

We wouldnt have anything to say if they wouldn't keep doing what they do

Re: Eastern Conference Playoffs - Second Round Discussion Thread

Seriously man. What I'm sick of is all the comments about people being mad about a team winning and people only complaining cause it happens to their team and crap like that. The hell would I or anybody else be mad about a team beating a team that isn't they're team and I can go through the list of comments and pick out only about two or three comments regarding the refs that actually came from Celtics fans. I'm a Bulls fan, I complained about the call. Altimus is a Bulls fan, he spoke on it, ex spoke on it, he's a Laker fan. So kill that noise about complaining when you're team loses. Especially when you're a fan of a team that never loses that way.

Im equally tired of these blanket posts. Thats what kind of noise needs to be killed. If you want to address what someone posted, quote it. You remember all these posts how you want to remember them

Yeah, I said "people mad"...which you took to heart apparantley. This had absolutely NOTHING to do with the officiating of the game or anyone feeling slighted. I expressed how terrible that sequence was along with everyone else.

Who even posted that disagreed with the call? Or even said that only a certain group were the only ones concerned about it? Musyk and jeebs brought up points about the call, but they themselves thought it was bad as a whole.

I'll just let it go. I'll just stick to Laker talk.

Pierce deserved to get thrown out. I'm tired of everybody complaining about the refs when their team loses.

I don't care if somebody disagreed with the call, that's fine. But bringing up people complaining about the refs because they're team loses is out of pocket and this was the situation in which the comment was made, what is supposed to be interpreted from that comment? People who aren't Celtics fans were complaining about the refs.

I wasn't just referring to your comment about people being mad about the Heat winning. Believe me I don't have a problem quoting someone if I disagree with something they say, I've done it before. Problem is I don't have all day to go through looking for all the posts I've seen that type of comment pop up after a game. Nobody is mad that the Heat won, with the exception of maybe Celtics fans. If your team isn't even involved in a game I fail to see how you can be mad about the winner/loser. Do I wanna see the Heat fail? Sure, but I'm not mad if they win against the Celtics or Knicks or Cavs or somebody cause I'm a Bulls fan, as long as my team is handling they're business I couldn't care less. I just think people constantly popping up talking about someone is mad because of a game outcome knowing the people they're talking about aren't even fans of the losing team.

EDIT: Letting it go as well Jason

I know you wont be complaining about referees thats for sure

Waiting to see yall start calling out Lamar Odom again if LA starts losing games

That said, wwharton, I wasnt even referring to Pierce, just overall.. I guess it just so happened that there was some kind of controversy yesterday about PP getting kicked out of the game

I actually wasn't even referring to your post. That's just what came to mind when I saw it happen (especially the way the rest of the game was called before that).

Nope. But if the Lakers win, I know what group of fans will be though. Complaining about the refs is the cool thing to do.

Re: Eastern Conference Playoffs - Second Round Discussion Thread

Heat-Celtics is going to be drama queen central by the looks of things..with Pierce, KG, Wade, Lebron, Rondo and Bosh, prancing around out there.

This series should be sponsored by Tampax.

Haha...absolutely

Re: Eastern Conference Playoffs - Second Round Discussion Thread

We can try to pretend that it doesn't matter, but what's best for the NBA money wise is a Lakers/Heat Finals. Take it how you want.

I didnt see the game wwharton, wasn't home, and Jasong..... yeah as I said I know who wont be the ones having anything to say because their team gets the benefits of the calls being that they are in a certain city

So it goes both ways, acknowledge that then move on without trying to call out people who point out inconsistencies as if they dont exist which stretches far beyond just the 02 playoffs

What's your point?

Lakers/Cavs the last two years was just as good money-wise because everyone was dying for a Kobe/LeBron Finals and we all know how that turned out, both times.
