How the fuck is that not a flagrant? What a joke.

[ifmanis5]

Stern called in and said no flagrant.

[Blacken]

What the fuck is this league?

[NavaHo]

Flagrant there right?

Um, it wasn't Dwyane Wade getting fouled, so no, that's not a flagrant.

[Cerebus the Batboy]

This league can be so stupid.

[Stu Nahan]

Doc needs to get a T. This is bullshit.

[Nick Kaufman]

How can you watch that on a replay and not call it a flagrant?

[ifmanis5]

Bailout call.

[NavaHo]

Speculation that Bogans didn't get a flagrant because he "held him up." He held him by the neck in a sleeper hold Roddy Piper would have been proud of.

[CTSOX]

Don't worry the league will review it after the game and give him a flagrant when it doesnt fuckin' matter anymore.

[stp130]

Bass should have had the +1 there.

[Cerebus the Batboy]

Kerr is spot on, Brooklyn is doing nothing to earn these fouls.

[Stu Nahan]

The refs have totally mangled the last 2 minutes of this game. So frustrating to watch.

[Wilco's Last Fan]

This game is beginning to remind me why a dark part of my soul begs for David Stern to get hit by a train.

[bball831]

If we rebound we win.

[stp130]

Jesus, I don't even want to think about what the second-chance points stat is.

I'm not watching the second half. The officials have fucked the Celtics repeatedly, starting with the first play of the game.

[LukefromNH]

If we rebound we win.

Can someone explain to me how we are consistently terrible at offensive rebounds. Do they talk about it in practice? Do the coaches talk about it and the players don't care despite the fact that it costs them games? Do we not have the capability to get rebounds? I understand we may never be a great rebounding team, but how does it NEVER improve?

The conventional wisdom is that, under Doc, is they fore-go offensive rebounds in order to get back on defense. Some also used to point to our high field goal percentage. The stats this year show that our offense is efficient, but don't support our defense being all that great.

Well first thing is they have no size. Bass and Green are both awful rebounders for the 4 position and KG never boxes out and can't out jump anyone for a ball.

[collings94]

Pierce might have the slowest first step out of any perimeter player, I'll never understand how he gets around people.

[MyDaughterLovesTomGordon]

I thought that foul on Garnett was a flagrant, actually.

[Nomar813]

Bank!

[MyDaughterLovesTomGordon]

Looks like Doc did something right at the half. They look so much better.

[Nomar813]

They're calling that a pass? These refs really have no clue.

[Soxaholic]

Pierce is looking good these past couple of nights.

[Nomar813]

Holy shit, we won a loose ball battle.

[Blacken]

Pierce has no ups and moves at a glacial pace and the other team still falls for everything. Love it.

[collings94]

Bass sets some killer screens, I'd hate to run into one.

[Bob Montgomery's Helmet Hat]

Lopez is huge

[stp130]

Don't know what Doc said at halftime, but it worked...

[collings94]

Why did Brooklyn stop going to Lopez? Boston can't handle him right now.

[Nomar813]

There is no reason to shrink the game to look at the side of Avery Johnson's head.

[Bob Montgomery's Helmet Hat]

Bass is the only player who crashes the offensive boards

[collings94]

Those Brooklyn chants sound way to much like Bullshit.

[Stu Nahan]

Lee contributing

[stp130]

Heading for a helluva finish...

[Nomar813]

Lee's trying to even up the hustle stats gap by himself.

[gammoseditor]

Yeah, I would've thought that's what it was, except there wasn't anything close to a questionable call.

[Stu Nahan]

The hipsters are being ironic.

[CaptainLaddie]

Wow. How that wasn't a foul...

[stp130]

Pierce hacked, no call.

[ifmanis5]

Man, Pierce has an anchor in his shorts.

[gammoseditor]

Every ref in the nba gives Lebron a foul call for what just happened to Pierce.

[collings94]

Does Brooklyn not know how to ride a hot hand? Lopez should be demanding the ball, instead they just watch Johnson hoist terrible shots.

[Stu Nahan]

Another brutal no call. That said, can someone hit a fucking shot? Kerr waxing poetic about how they know what they are doing on offense while they can't score trip after trip is a bit much.

[Bob Montgomery's Helmet Hat]

Man, Pierce has an anchor in his shorts.

I've heard that too

[collings94]

What kind of fucking shot was that Terry?

[ifmanis5]

Can't buy a bucket.

[collings94]

Story of the game right there. Bass is 4/14.
