It's not about being a fan of anything, it's about the bias against certain teams. No one says a word when the Celtics get questionable calls or things go uncalled on them, only for Miami. I've seen at least a dozen moving screens on Boston, mostly by KG. I've also seen Rondo travel 2 or 3 times when making a post entry picking up his dribble. The refs have been way too ticky tack tonight, almost trying to prove a point or something. A couple of those T's were quick, but if they warned them prior that's what it is.

You're not biased towards the Heat? C'mon man. You're just as predictable as this board

I may be biased towards Lebron because I'm a fan. But I don't sit here and bitch no stop about the officials and be blind about it. I just acknowledged those T's and some ticky tack fouls. What about all the moving screens by KG, what about the travels on Rondo, what about Mike Miller being called for 2 or 3 fouls for having a couple fingers on the jersey, or Lebron getting called for bumping the cutter. It goes both ways but it is only brought up one way around here, it's annoying. I would hate to play with people on here, bitching like females about the refs the entire time.

No one would even notice LeBron if he was walking with Art. LeBron might get shot in the line of fire that is heading toward Art though.

For every illegal screen set by KG I can find one set by Anthony or Turiaf

Dont complain about Bron getting calls against him, dude gets more favorable calls than anybody in the league

Watch KG next game then and tell me I'm wrong. The whole point is that it goes both ways but people only cry when it goes the Heats way, hence the reason I called the board obvious. Superstars are going to get calls, especially if they are the aggressor. We had this argument on here last week as a whole, not going into that again.

Anyways, Boston cant let guys like Miller, Chalmers and Battier beat them. If those guys put up decent number this series the Celtics dont have a shot

Love the disclaimer:

Please know: I'm a lifelong Heat fan, but even I know when a Miami fan is being too annoying.

I just don't think Boston can score enough, they struggled to get 85 in the sixers series. Lebron helps hold Pierce to 5-18 and Rondo has to be a scorer and play maker for them to have a chance, tall task even with Bosh out.

I'm not denying that he does. I would tell you to watch Miamis bigs and tell me that they dont do the same thing.

Yeah, people "cry" when fouls go the Heats way, Miami "fans" do the same thing when fouls go against them. This isnt anything new

I haven't seen one person on here cry that Miami isn't getting those calls, like I said the only time anything is mentioned on here is when the other team doesn't get the calls. Over dramatization at it's finest.

Being a bandwagon fan is easy. Being a "casual" fan is just as easy. Don't get butthurt when real fans of teams bitch about something that they notice.

The general boards on ESPN and NBA pretty much agree that the Heat were getting favorable calls. you can not honestly say any of those 5 T's were truly deserving...

It's not like Boston is a popular team either.
