NBA fails again

No team should be allowed to win by fouling to prevent the winning score in any sport.

Both teams in game six played well at times and played poorly at times... San Antonio made a huge mistake in the 4th quarter by getting away from the inside game... when a player is having a horrible game, turning the ball over eight times, he should not be the player trying to control the ball in the last few minutes... sitting the best player and rebounder for the last plays of the game was very foolish and gave Miami the opportunity to tie the game in regulation... Miami showed they were not kings or god as the media likes to portray them... every one of them showed nerves and lack of discipline... comparing them to any great team or any great player is way too premature... they backed into the win...

Worst of all... with 1.8 seconds to play in overtime an obvious foul prevented San Antonio from scoring what would have been the winning basket... that foul was obvious to the announcers and very obvious on the replay... allowing a team to win by breaking the rules makes the win and the game meaningless...

San Antonio gave the game away and may not have deserved the win, but Miami did not win the game... the referees gave the win to Miami by allowing Miami to physically and illegally prevent the winning shot... that is not how a championship should be decided... just when i thought the nba could not fail any worse, it did tonight...

If the NBA does not own up to this referee error that decided the game, the NBA fails... if the media ignores this referee error that decided the game, the media fails...

There are bad calls and fouls missed throughout any game... there are fouls called when they shouldn't be during any game... no one can expect referees to be perfect... but this bottom line is simple...

No team should be allowed to win a championship by fouling, by breaking the rules of the game, in the last moments of the game...

so glad the nba is over

i watched less than a quarter of game 4 and about 6 minutes of game 5 before the obvious bias had me changing channels to the ncaa college world series... it is pathetic that such unprofessional officiating could be see at the supposedly highest level of the sport... you could see it in the faces before and during the game... phantom fouls when lebron, wade, or most heat get the ball... no fouls when the thunder get obviously hit... why bother playing... people with money must think most people are just stupid... i miss what professional basketball used to be and won't go out of my way to watch again...

the heat might have won this series without the refs, but we will never know...
