Popovich on being asked what the keys to the game are:"Did you ask me that last night? Say whatever you want. It's transition D. It's making shots. Don't turn it over. It's all bullshit. Have more points than they do, that's the key. Just make it up and say I said it. I don't care."<----------------------------->lol what?

Posted ImageThe Celtics shot absurdly well on jumpers. That won't happen over the course of a series. But the Heat are definitely struggling more than they should be.

Bynum: gets 30 rebounds. Also: tries to steal the ball from his teammate so he can shoot a 3.

2)I agree mostly about it being more about the Clippers success, I am just needling you Laker fans. I think it's undignified for you guys to hate Blake so intensely, and also if the Lakers were the 1 seed, I doubt the hate would be so intense.
Chris Paul's game winner against OKC.Youtube comments:0:30 Dear Blake, that's not soccer.0:31 Griffin FLOPPIN....even when they just got a winning bucket....smhI'm glad to see that Griffin managed to squeeze one more flop in before the game could end.Blake Griffin's flopping again WTF.Blake Griffin's flopping is as automatic as Chris Paul's clutch playsBlake's highlights can't save him no more. His flopping is disgusting!!!dude Blake's flops are seriously getting out of handetc.Edit: This isn't meant as a defense of Lakers fans; just thought it was funny.

Battier should've fouled Boozer before he made the pass for the game-tying three. I thought the Lebron three-pointer was the dagger and people might even call it clutch, but then he had to go and miss a free throw that would've probably wrapped things up.Derrick Rose was pretty terrible.Can't wait for the playoffs to start.Flop City bonus:Posted ImageIt's the flailing arms that really sell it.

Man, I agree. I thought that three sealed the deal. I stopped watching about 60 seconds into OT.

Unless the Heat coaches said don't foul.

Yeah, Spoelstra told them not to foul. I don't really know what I believe in the foul/don't foul discussion when up 3 late. I wouldn't try to foul Korver coming open behind the 3 pt line because you might end up fouling him in the act of shooting. But Boozer was at the free throw line and obviously looking to pass. There's no risk there.

I agree that would have been a perfect opportunity to foul, but if they're told not to foul you can never expect a player to make an executive decision there. Most players don't even know what the right play is unless they're told in the timeout.In my opinion, 11 secs is too much time to foul, especially if the other team has a timeout left. Inside 8 secs when the other team doesn't have a timeout is when you foul, in my opinion.

I think the play started out as a good no-foul situation but when the ball is swung to boozer, Bosh should take the foul. That's pretty hard to expect though and I think only Battier has a high enough basketball IQ to realize it there.Heat struggling sucks....but they were still one CJ Watson step back contested 3 from winning. I think it's still too early to panic especially since it looks like Miami is going to luck out with the seedings. Let someone else deal with Boston for once, tyvm.The way Miami's role players went from very solid in the first half of the season to completely worthless in the 2nd half has been so depressing.
