    Refs gone wild: a place to complain about NBA referees and propose solutions to improving officiating

    SGA was also beat badly on the initial upfake from PJ Washington, which clearly played a part in the call. SGA's incredible body control kept it close, but from my view it was a no doubt foul.

    (2) New York Knicks vs (6) Indiana Pacers - 2024 EC Second Round

    Yeah, I went to a Warriors/Heat game last year in MIA and the balcony was rocking with lots of season ticket holders. Seems lame on TV with all the pricey seats empty at times, but the fan base for the Heat still seems strong when you are there. And it is really hard to get into the building...

    Round 2: Celtics vs Cavs

    No worries. I go to a fair number of games and the Garden is almost always rocking, even for late January midweek games against the Hawks or whatever. The crowd so far have been pretty normally boisterous for the playoffs and definitely into it. I don't think the game 2 losses have anything...

    Round 2: Celtics vs Cavs

    I was there. I don't agree with this at all. Not even a little.

    (2) New York Knicks vs (6) Indiana Pacers - 2024 EC Second Round

    How many of the Knicks woke up in a hospital bed this morning? They were looking really ragged at the end, like its finally catching up to them. On the other hand, Haliburton looked like he might need an amputation. Good series!

    Round 2: Celtics vs Cavs

    Wow, one loss and things have gone really sideways in here. Ha.

    Round 2: Celtics vs Cavs

    Another thing is we seemed to have jumped the gun on young Evan Mobley. I thought the only chance the Cav's had was for him to be good and that he didn't have it in him, but he definitely had it in him last night. He really exposed Al and improved in nearly every way, except picking up the 4th...

    Round 2: Celtics vs Cavs

    At the game last night I thought exactly this. I had a very good view of the paint and for the first three quarters Mobley was just abused on both ends. Very tentative and just a half to full step from where he should have been to be successful on nearly every play. In the 4th he kept getting...

    2024 Playoffs Eastern Conference First Round: (2) New York Knicks vs (7) Philadelphia 76ers - The Danse Macabre

    Everyone was clowning on Philly, but this is a true reminder of what we are dealing with here. Causeway Street had a very "well, that was nice, but much work to do" feel after Game 5, as it should have been.

    Celtics vs Da Culture - Round 1 (FIGHT!)

    I found it very encouraging for the remainder of the playoffs that last night after the Spyro Bros finished their show, Jalen came out and immediately went to the free throw line, practiced those shots for awhile, then put his two free throws in a couple minutes into the third, even though they...

    5/1: Game 5@Boston

    I'll be in the house tonight. Fuck the Heat and their handsy bullshit culture.

    Green Zinger Tea - Kristaps Porziņģis 2023-24

    This all makes sense. I guess I am looking to the positive based off KP's tweet saying he was going to be all good, but agree its optimistic to think he'll be back really soon.

    Green Zinger Tea - Kristaps Porziņģis 2023-24

    That's what I mean - Kornet was out G1 and G2 with the "calf strain" and played G3 and was fine. So hopefully KP is on a similar track, close it out tonight, couple more days off, maybe miss G1 of next round, then good.
