Found this comment in a Heat blog this morning:

Heard Steve Javie on Mike&Mike say the league has "LeBron rules" for officiating. He specifically talked about he spoke to all refs about speed, balance, and power. If a foul is a "marginal" foul then don't call it. So defenders are, not only allowed, but encouraged to push, shove, and grab Lebron as long as it doesn't specifically affect the outcome of his shot. If you watch closely you can see that refs won't call a foul unless Lebron misses

Steve Javie interview here:

This is outrageous!
 
If it's Miami vs. Boston in the first round, will there ever have been a better 1 vs. 8 matchup in the history of the NBA?

I've been staring at Arci's avatar but I can't figure out if it's Bill Clinton or Jimmy Johnson.
 
oh shit, 1:33 in, granted there is almost no defense played in these shits

 
nba all dunk lineup

pg- steve francis
sg- vince carter
sf- Andre Iguodala
pf- shawn kemp
c- Darryl Dawkins

biased slightly, but all those dudes can dunk and I mean theres like a million guys you can put on there but yeah thats who id want to see
 
Well it looks like Kobe is done for the season. He just got surgery today


Sucks to see a player (especially at that age) to work so hard and pretty much carry his team in to the playoffs and get hurt. Kobe is at the top of the list on almost all offensive stats, and #2 on Minutes played per game. Tied with a ROOKIE Lillard for Portland


great season for Kobe though. I'm actually going to be cheering for LA if they make the playoffs


Oh and Lebron will never be as good as Kobe
never

this guy is a beast on the court and if I had to pick one player who I wanted to watch in the NBA right now it would be Tyreke.

Bottom line is 99/100 times:

if you're stronger then him he's quicker than you.

if you're quicker then him he's stronger than you.

if you try to keep him from getting to the basket he contorts his body and at least flips it towards the rim while getting the foul

if you dont body him up he euro steps your ass

what do you do?

 
Doug Collins resigned as the Sixers coach, can't say I blame him. They took a huge risk on Bynum and it blew up in their faces, last time I ever believe an NBA player about anything.

Should have known this was going to be a rough year when Kwame Brown was brought on to backup Spencer Hawes

ehhhh, hopefully they just clean house this year, suck dick next year, and sign some free agents who actually want to earn their money after next season in addition to getting a high lottery pick

Evan Turner needs to go as well, I still think they should have taken DeMarcus Cousins with that pick. I mean, character issues or not, I'll take a guy with a bad attitude over a fucking injury-prone quitter like Bynum any day of the week.
 
Lebron has always been better than Kobe since he came into the league. Come on Arci...what kinda shit are you spewing down here?

Also fuck yeah Knicks!

Carmelo is finally hitting his stride with a decent damn team. And you cant get any of your sloppy passes past Jason Kidd, get that shit out of here Jeff Green....
 
I would take the Knicks over the Pacers. The Pacers don't score much and the Knicks match up well with them with Tyson Chandler and K-Mart on Hibbert and West. They would have no answer for Carmelo and the added scoring of Smith and Felton. The Knicks also spread the floor with Kidd and Novac. Just too much for Pacers to handle plus they play decent defense and don't turn the ball over.
 
yeah Im thinking Knicks - Heat in the east and OKC - Spurs in the west

nba playoffs are like the exact opposite of the NCAA tourny

u must be underrating paul george's D. and no PF in the league can stop West's offense.
and i read something today saying Roy Hibbert led all NBA centers in defensive efficiency this season.
then George Hill is extremely underrated and stephenson has flashes of greatness as well

would be close but i got pacers.
