The double flop

This is getting absurd. These are supposed to be tough guys. No why the "Center" is going bye bye. You can't back anyone down.

What the hell difference is a $5K fine going to make? They need to change it where the refs can start calling fouls for flopping.

No fines for wrinkle head Shane?

I'm hoping Indiana can knock the Heat out, I'm so sick of LeBron, so sick of this team.

Wade and Bosh gotta be banged up huh? I knew Indiana would push them to 6 maybe 7 but this damn series should be over if Indiana didn't fuck up 2 games badly ( game 1 and 5)

I hope Miami loses for all the reasons everyone cant stand them.... But it will be a nightmare for NBA ratings if it ends up Indy vs SA even though I'd like it from a basketball standpoint.

Spurs I think beat either team within 6 games

I'm enjoying watching Wade struggle. Never liked the guy. Sneaky dirty player. Whiner. Flopper. Dresses like a douche. Was awarded the 2006 title by the officials. I can't believe when Lebron made his "decision" that people actually thought that Wade would be the team's Jordan/Batman guy and that Lebron would be the Pippen/Robin guy. I'd say that it was laughable in hindsight. But I was laughing the whole time.

You're right on about the Batman/Robin thing and Wade.

Who, in their right mind, that has ever watched 5 minutes of basketball thought that anybody besides LBJ would be the leader of this team? I'll tell ya who....fucking morons, and that's before he came into his own these last couple years. James is a no class douche, but Dwyane Wade isn't in the same universe.

I never thought Wade was too bad til a few years ago he threw down a pretty bad ass dunk and got fouled. His momentum carried him a few row deep and he took a fan out. The dude popped up as fast as he could to celebrate with Wade a little and offered up a high five and all Wade could give him was an "I am God" stare into space. Hilarious, but still that fan got smeared and he was ecstatic about. Wade should've at least acknowledged him.

I think the whole Wade situation should really make people see how amazing Scottie Pippen was - he was the best #2 guy ever. Wade can't get it going w/o having play after play called for him whereas Scottie was able to just do everything else that Mike wasn't doing.

The thing with the Bulls is, Pippen unlike Wade was the faciliator of the offense. In the heat offense, james is much more like a pippen than a jordan. The heat offense is so stagnet, it's typically james pounding the ball and then either taking the 3 or driving and kicking. Normally not much movement. The triangle offense with the players that the bulls had was an amazing sight to be hold. It's a shame nobody runs it anymore.
