And nobody is making you bitch about every single call during a game, but you find no problem in doing so.

The best officials are the ones you forget are even on the floor (or the field). The fact that they are part of the conversation in national circles, not just message boards, tells you they haven't exactly been stellar.

I don't care if the bad calls have been exactly 50/50 either- it still interrupts one's enjoyment of a sporting event.

That said, America's Team, er, OKC needs to win tonight to further enhance my enjoyment of this series.

^For his sake, hopefully he brings it tonight. He really hasn't done shit on the defensive side of the ball since the 1st game. It'd be a shame if Miami lived in the paint again tonight and somebody threw his words right back at him. I hope after tonight we can say that both teams played at the top of their game. NEITHER team has played their A games yet IMO. OKC has slow starts and Harden hasn't shown up. Miami has shot below their average from outside the paint and have turned it over a lot. I'm hoping for a classic battle in which it's one of those games you hate to see the other team lose.

Lebron goes for 40 and the Heat win 97-92. Lebron will also swat the shit out of Ibaka at least once.

OKC with a huge start. If they continue this an have their typical 2nd half, they should be fine.
