          I'm hoping like hell that the Nets and Heat face each other in the playoffs now, so people can see how much more differently these games will be officiated. I want this league exposed in the worst way possible.

          Even though it's not his style, I also want to see ProfessaPackMan go off.

            Looks like Raptors could get Lowry/Johnson back for tonights game! If they're not 100%, I hope they do sit out though cause it's not like Raptors need them to beat 76ers, so might as well make sure those guys are fully healthy than get re-injured.

            Though at same time....maybe playing could be good for them. It'd basically be like an extra practice for them lol.

              King, I think it was you who was questioning Plumlee's hops earlier this year. That dude can get up there, haha

              Majingir, would you rather play the Wiz or the Cat's in the playoffs?

                Not trying to pick on you dude, but this is the "monster" that David Stern has created. Too many fans have become accustomed to this type of officiating.

                I understand, to an extent, superstar players getting the benefit of the doubt, especially during the playoffs, but just because LeBron is the MVP, doesn't mean you automatically 'throw out' the rule book, or in this particular case, invent new rules as you go along.

                If it's a block, it's a block. It shouldn't matter who was dunking or who was blocking.

                  Wizards. Raptors for some strange reason have sucked big time against Bobcats this year. Kinda strange. They can beat Pacers,OKC,Rockets and stuff,but could never beat the Bobcats this season.

                    Just so you know we struggled in 2004, and was average up until 2008.

                        And in the 5 prior seasons to 04 they made the finals 4 times,and won it 3 times....

                        And "average" was a low-mid 40s win team, and that's considered bad by Lakers standards which is my point. Fans of teams like Lakers,Yankees and stuff get spoiled so much. Miss playoffs 1-2 years,finish with an "average" record, but don't go too long without a real good season.

                        Struggling for a team like the Lakers is missing playoffs once,or even making playoffs,but in a 6-8 seed. Struggling for so many other teams is missing the playoffs for 3+ seasons,not knowing when you'll make it again, but in the end, next time they get a mid 40 win season(or better) it makes things so much more rewarding.

                        Only ONCE in Lakers history have they ever missed the playoffs in consecutive seasons, so until something like that happens again, Lakers fans won't truly know what it feels like to struggle. Part of reason I really want to see teams like Lakers,Yankees struggle. See how exactly their fanbases deal with things that a regular sports fan has experienced multiple times already in their lives.

                        Reason why I never really got mad at Celtics during Big 3 days. They hadn't even been to finals/won it since the 80s,and had so many bad seasons since then,but they still had a good amount of fan support. So many ups and downs for their franchise since the 80s.

                          Heat have won the title two years in a row now without any teams fans, other than you and maybe one other Bulls fans complaining... No OKC or SA fans here complaining during either finals series.

                            What? When have I complained about the Heat winning titles or the NBA finals series? I'm mad at the media latching onto them and refs calling stuff in their favor, but I never said I hated Heat winning or the recent NBA finals matchups...

                              And I wasn't taking about hating them, I was talking about ref complaining.
