Eastern Conference Finals Thread. (1) Miami vs (3) Indiana

[Falcons1stPanthers2nd]

If you don't know what bashing battier, then saying garbage ass NBA players. "PLAYERS" plural was meant to mean, then you are clueless. Also battier went to Duke if you didn't know.

He dove knee first into a defender. Deserved every bit of bashing.

[toldozer]

By calling out an entire group of players based on college, yeah ok bud.

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

To be fair, everyone has been bashing Battier...

 

He seems to have been playing dirty and he's without a down whining about everything...

 

You can also tell how it has affected his play.

 

[TylerDurden]

I'm a LBJ fan but, I was really hoping Indiana would make a run in the ECF, just to make it interesting... A Spurs/Heat finals is gonna be so lame as it is.

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

This was super boring...

[RelaxImaPro]

Yeah, well it was bound to happen... like I've been saying for about half this thread now. :P

 

 

Really been liking the Pacers this year though, even if they don't make it they're gonna be a hell of a team next season.

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

You have to think they could get a decent package for Granger, they obviously don't need him anymore with the emergence of Paul George.

[thatlookseasy]

I dont know, I almost think Indy would be better off keeping Granger, they really need more depth on the wing and he doesnt have great trade value at the moment (30 years old, coming off a major injury, expiring contract)

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

Typical Battier with the flop... smh.

[carpanfan96]

James and Wade look very uninterested in this game, either that or the Pacer's are really getting into their heads. Either way I like what I'm seeing in this game, it needs to continue so the Pacers can knock cheap shot wade and the heat out. 

[HeatCheck]

Stephenson doesn't have the highest BB IQ but I love the way he's playing tonight. Very aggressive.

 

Pacers just need to keep feeding West.

 

EDIT: Speak of the devil, Lance beats the 3rd quarter buzzer on a fall away 3.

[saX man]

The constant flopping from Miami tunes me completely out of these games.  Its absurd.  The Italians of the NBA

 

Constantly petitioning with the refs...just play the game.  

[4Corners]

Oh look another awfully officiated basketball game. College is still the worst but NBA is a very strong contender.

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

Yeah, I was talking to one of my boy's (he played on David West's AAU team when he was in high school) and we were talking about what an enigma Lance is, we pretty much decided on this.

 

It's either...

 

"WTF Lance?!?"

 

or

 

"Okay Lance, I see you."

 

And there's no in between whatsoever.
