I see you all evade the question of the favorable calls though because you know its true. Your town cant complain about not getting calls etc because for so many years you got more calls than anyone else and more non calls in your favor. Its fact, and I LOVED to watch Jordan. As a UNC fan I think he is the greatest player to ever play the game. He also got the benefit of a lot of calls.
Can complain and will. Did Jordan get calls, yeah. He was MICHAEL FREAKING JORDAN, not RAJON RONDO.

You're wayyyy off. Happy trolling

Hey guys, let's not turn this into a personal argument, please?!?

With that aside, this has been an epic series and it's only fitting that it's going 7. Perhaps we'll see another multiple overtime-fest?

Go Mavs, beat Denver

Talk about getting calls. Sean May got a plethora of joke calls against Lincoln Way High School product James Augustine. But that is neither here nor there.

I think I actually heard Augustine was in the NBDL, which is hilarious to me.

Reminds me, the triple OT game last night might have been the most excited I've been over a BBall game since the UofI comback against Arizona in the elite 8.

Rockets won't beat the Lakers, but i hope they force a 7th game. I think the Rockets should force Kobe to pass the ball late in the 4 quarter of every game to his teammates and not allow him to shoot. They need to scramble and double Kobe making him pass. If it means that Fish, Vujacic, and Farmer get open for a jump shot, then so be it. They shouldn't let Kobe beat them and make his teammates beat them instead.
