jtthasportfreak Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 I know that this should really be in the Requests page but the topic of the Hornets' crap out of beating (thank you StrongBad) really warrants these two favors... Does some have a screen shot of the score graphic with the final score (on Altitude, NBA TV, etc.)and what about a Hornets jersey with the #58 below it ? It's something to remember I'm sure.BTW I think EJ said on TNT that when the St'Louis Hawks lost by 58 to Mpls, they came came back to win by ONE in the next game. Good for them not to roll over immediately Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew22 Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 In the Hawks-Heat game last night, those two 4-point plays were kinda bogus. On the first 3-pointer, the guy shot the ball a full second before Bibby touched him, and if I remember correctly, hit the guy on the left foot/leg as the shooter was already falling backwards. Then, on the second 3-pointer, the guy fakes, Bibby runs by and maybe grazes him, but the guy wasn't shooting or moving, and as Bibby is sitting in the corner, the guy then takes the shot and makes it.Shouldn't fouls be called only when a person's body is struck while shooting/dribbling/moving?It was Solo on the first one, but the point remains. Plus during this time, the Hawks were getting mugged on the other end with nothing being called. Eagles/Heels/Dawgs/Falcons/Hawks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was probably the worst call in NBA history. Ok, I'm exaggerating, but that was an assbackwards call if I've ever seen one. You're exactly right when you say that he MAYBE grazed him, with there being an 85% chance that he didn't touch him, and a 15% chance that he maybe flicked a bead of sweat onto James Jones. That was a TERRIBLE call, but it's also the type of call that you have to live with in a road playoff game. Sad, but true.BTW, no series for the rest of the playoffs is going to top the basketball that has been played in this Bulls/Celtics series. 5 games, 3 of which went to OT, 1 went to double OT, and almost every game except for Game 3 has gone right down to the wire. Just great basketball all around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just great basketball all around.Yeah, its completely unbelievable. Smacked heads, knocked out teeth, missed free throws, bad calls (both ways, dont worry), awkward shots, buzzer beaters, turnovers, great acting jobs, and most importantly, Mikki Moore's big ugly head.I'm not even mad to watch the Bulls lose the way they are losing right now, I am honored to watch this series ---Owner of the NHA's Philadelphia Quakers, the UBA's Chicago Skyliners, and the CFA's Portland Beavers (2010 CFA2 Champions)--- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MVP Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Dwight Howard suspended 1 game for the elbow to Sam Dalembert's head. I'd be shocked if Andre Iguodala doesn't run down the Magic interior defense and take Game 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MVP Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 How was that even a flagrant 1? Wade was CLEARLY going for the ball...But I do hope Horford is ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TFoA Posted April 30, 2009 Author Share Posted April 30, 2009 The refs got caught up in the moment and let the fans influence that decision, plus Wade picked the worst time to try a hard foul, immediately after he was issued a T on the other side. Bad timing on his part.I really do hope Horford is ok. Zaza Pachulia has proven that he can step in and be the starter, but I don't really trust Solomon Jones, and I REALLY don't trust Randolph Morris. Hopefully Horford will be ready to go for Game 6 and/or a possible Game 7.Also, I love how the Hawks enjoy to start melees and get rough when David Stern is in the building. KG vs. Zaza? Stern was there. 4 T's in one play? Stern was there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJTank Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 I said earlier the Billups-Iverson trade was a disaster for Detroit. For Denver it has now made them a legit team that can possibly be the biggest challenge to LA in the West. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victoria Cup becomes obsolete because neither the NHL nor Europe send their best (The Zurich Lions were swept in the first round of the playoffs this past season).Basketball: I forgot.Well, this is the best basketball league in the world. See mandala for interests other than teams ranked lower than the Orlando Magic (the Magic are last team on the list most identifiable to the vast majority of Australians). The NCAA Tournament gets worse as the playoffs continue, am I right? Hopefully, we won't have to sit through a meaningless game 6 or 7 in the conference semifinals before we see the Lakers play the Cavs, Magic, or Celtics.
