The ball hit the line after it went off DAJ’s hand. so…. that is irrelevant.

I would still like someone to explain why D-Wade wasn’t called out of bounds on on his game saving save after the LeBron missed the free throw on the play before this travel. He clearly had his hand on DeAndre Jordan’s shoulder while Jordan was out of bounds. The rule is, if you’re touching anything (in this case another player) out of bounds, you are considered to be out of bounds whether your feet have touched down or not. What really bothers me is that the officials checked this on their tiny little replay screen and still didnt see this.

That game was pathetic. I realize the Heat will win the championship, but please don’t make it obvious.

Winderman and an article defending the heat (lebron-he left the cavs to to follow lebron), is it even possible!?! Why even post it?

Truth is not just the heat, but yes mainly the heat. NBA basketball is influenced by ref calls at a high rate. A foul here, no call there, game is close and outcomes destined. Only the Mavs being SUPER in the finals gave them a championship, and LeBron not showing up in the 4th of course, refs couldn’t help that lol.

Take even the Heat game vs Wolves (i live in MN) and Bron bully balled in the last minute and he got an And 1. BS Only Bron can knock a man down in position and get a foul on them unbelieveable. The Heat will win the championship this season WITH or with out (they are good) the leagues help. it’s sad.

Thats one thing i love about college, it’s for the most part unadultrated, Star or scrub, a foul is a foul and a good take is a good take. Put college refs in the NBA and people would enjoy it more.

NBA is a marketing money maker “show”. NBA meets WWF (Stern/McMahon partnership lol) is reality tv.

Kurt Helin didn’t write this article, that’s why it is fair and sensible to teams not named the Heat or Lakers.

“So, apparently, either there have been only two questionable calls this season, or @NBAOfficial is the league’s official watchdog of the Miami Heat.”

Really? I thought you were the official watchdog of the Miami Heat. Smh.
