NBA Finals Game 4 Thread (with video preview) Quote | Reply

Get ready, boys and girls, for another nausiating evening of so-called "basketball" being played by one of the league's most pathetic individuals: LaBitch James.

Here is a little video preview of what is in store for your viewing pleasure this evening: http://www.youtube.com/...ed&v=dp20_I_m8i0#!

Pathetic. When does football season start?

It is maddening when Miami gets a lot of calls and OKC doesn't get those same calls called for them.

My only interest in basketball anymore is rooting for LeBron to lose.

James had one foul in the last game despite playing 44 minutes and he defended Durant all of the 4th quarter. That tells you all you need to know about the NBA. It is in the leagues best interest to have Miami win, so the refs are doing whatever they can to make that happen. See the end of game two when James got away with 3 fouls in the last 10 seconds. The NBA is a joke.

I havent watched the NBA in so long, but I've watched this series.

It's like professional wrestling. you have the untouchable Lebron and then you have everyone else.

I dont know if its in the NBA's best interest to have Miami win, but it IS in their best interest for this series to go all the way... and the refs have found a way to make that happen.

After reading all that Tim Donaghy stuff and then seeing this series, I have no doubt he was telling the truth.

All that being said, I think the NFL is basically the same way. I think both leagues let the their refs know what outcome would be in the best interest of their employer. Refs who best give them those outcomes get the better games.

Why LeBron hatin? He's an awesome player. He deserves the title as much as any of the other thugs in the NBA. And he's no thug,

I had season tickets to the bucks for 2 years, saw a lot of players. LeBron is no worse than anyone else in the rest of the league. He was awesome when he was with cleveland, but that place sucks. who wouldn't want to play in miami for da coach? If he wins it, I will be happy for him.

He's way better than derrick rose

I can understand why you relate to LeBron.

Damn. OKC has started on fire! Watch the refs slow down this game in the next 4 minutes.

Other than the call with bosh on the ground, this is one of the "decent" games in terms of how they are calling the game, seems to be pretty even at this point. The calls are not determining the game, this is some great play going on. OKC is simply getting our muscled in this one.

KD took it in for a charge and the same play LBJ got the same call as well.

Are you watching right now? Did you see the phantom call on Durant, which then got switched to a phantom call on Westbrook?

OKC is not doing themselves any favors, KD just ran out of bounds baseline and received a pass, westbrook firing up shots too quickly, Harden going for wades pump fake.

Last baseline drive by KD against Lebron and Mario Chalmers, as KD was making the layup and gets hit in the head by Lebron but no foul called. I see lots of soft fouls being called for Miami but not the same for OKC.

Another thing that irks me is everything Lebron drives to the basket he looks to the ref each time to see why they didn't call the foul.

Yeah and how about that total fake tough guy bitch Joel Anthony. The NBA sucks, if the called palming and traveling, Lebron would avg 6 points a game for gods sake.

Westbrook's first free throw takes place at 7min left in 4th quarter. Seems like something wrong with that, no?

Incredible. Westbrook has been taking it to the rim most of the night with no calls. Someone looks cross-eyed at LaBitch and he gets a call.

Lebron down. Never like to see a pro athlete get hurt. But this could change the course of the game/series if it is serious.
