Pivitol GAme 5 In~Game NBA Finals thread Mavs @ Heat

[Journeyman]

Are you kidding me, Dirk with a rainbow shot...okay Wade buzzer here we go.

 

[JakeT.]

Free throws are so critical...it still amazes me how many NBA players can't hit 80-85% of their free throws.

That line hasn't moved since the first day they picked up a basketball in grade school.

I've always wondered how so much repetition with Shaq's free throws hasn't produced results. Having huge hands makes it really tough to shoot em but repetition should kick in at some point.

Who do you guys have? No time to read back through the thread to find everyone's picks.

I don't have anything on this one.

carbon copy of game 5 last yr.

 

[Journeyman]

OMG Wade takes on whole team!

 

[JakeT.]

Wade fouled with 1.9 seconds left. 2 free throws coming.

 

[Journeyman]

I smell 1 of 2

 

[ClipJoint]

HOLY SHIT!!!

He was not giving that ball up no matter what. He had 4 different defenders on him and guys with wide open shots everywhere. He was getting to the rack no matter what right there.

tie

I had the over and Dallas ML.

 

[Journeyman]

Chris Webber in the house.

 

[JakeT.]

Wow. Dallas gets pegged for a timeout they didn't want to call and now they can't bring the ball to halfcourt to inbound. Huge call. Dallas is screaming they never called a timeout.

 

[dr03]

mayhem going on

 

[JakeT.]

Chris Webber in the house.

Haha well put.

 

[whormoan]

Where was the foul on Wade?

 

[JakeT.]

Where was the foul on Wade?

Fingernail scraped his foot. That's good enough for Wade to get the call at home.

 

[PokerKingJim]

Total phantom call on Wade at the end. Refs decide the game = business as usual for the NBA

 

[dr03]

ouch. howard screwed them

 

[Journeyman]

incredible game, just incredible.

In college Howard rebounded a ball in a tie game with 1 second left and called a timeout his team didn't have 80 feet away from his own basket and they lost on the technical free throws....this was pretty bad also
