On replay that was 10% Duncan contact and 90% Bosh flopping. His flop on the next possession didn't draw a call.Devizier said:Duncan stepped into Bosh as he was landing. Don't know a league where that isn't a foul. Atypical for Duncan, but always fun to see the who me face (iPhone just tried to correct to "whine face" also appropriate).
seems like that only gets called on 3s. Are the shooters selling it or intentionally trying to land forward or is it a function of the defender closinglars10 said:I think you're right...just hate how almost every call is followed by 'that's a good call' by Breen.
Yeah..def wasn't called there with Duncan not being able to come down with Ray Allen under the basket.luckiestman said:seems like that only gets called on 3s. Are the shooters selling it or intentionally trying to land forward or is it a function of the defender closing
QFT. Although...is Bron looking for his 'Jordan has a 100 degree fever..towel over his head' end of the game?BigSoxFan said:Hey LeBron,
MJ would be playing...
yeah, i thought i missed it, but guess not. maybe we can get some high level info on refrigerant with the next sideline reportifmanis5 said:Finally Green. Great job by ABC getting LeBron injury info. Oh wait.
if it's ESPN it will be for years to come.BigSoxFan said:Can't wait for the LeBron story to dominate the next 2 days
She did say they were icing him down... If I had to guess he's cramping up badly and can't run or really jump cause his calves are tightening up.luckiestman said:yeah, i thought i missed it, but guess not. maybe we can get some high level info on refrigerant with the next sideline report

Edit: he's definitely cramping up.
I don't know how this happens to a pro athlete...but what he's going through is really painful...and you really can't play because your muscle just completely locks up.riboflav said:What a wimp
riboflav said:Terrible legacy visuals for LBJ right there. MJ must be laughing.

lars10 said:This is glorious.
His left calf completely locked up...you could see it through his sleeve.Brickowski said:That doesn't look like a cramp to me.
Me too, but in rare instances your leg just doesn't let you at all... it tightens up every time you try to push off or run.riboflav said:
Been there done that. Suck it up, man.
Um, clearly you have not had a nasty leg cramp. It's got nothing to do with willpower; you can be as stoic as you want about the pain, but unless you can will the muscle to unclench itself, you aren't running.riboflav said:

But if you want to rip on LBJ and say it's conditioning-related, I'll enjoy that.
What I can't quite get is why he isn't drinking anything or stretching at all? Or at least rubbing it? Do they just figure there's not enough time left?maufman said:Um, clearly you have not had a nasty leg cramp.
