I swear the NBA has to do something about flopping immediately. This sh** is shameful.

The bosh flop was ridiculous.

To make it even worse, they got Javie there doing damage control immediately after the play.
When healthy, Wade is one of the best SG's to ever play the game on both sides of the ball. Dude can do it all, handle, pass, score and block shots and he's only 6'4, if that.
Just as I expected, Spurs can't handle the pressure when the heat bring it for 48 minutes.

Logically it probably wouldn't have worked because they Danny Granger/Paul George already there. They needed a point guard and they got George Hill. You can't play Granger/George/Leonard high rotation minutes...wouldn't worked as you wouldn't be maximizing your assets.
I think proves more so is the Spurs always have competent people in their organization to make those kind of decisions that leads to those moves being made.
If any organization should copied it's them and it's been this way for over decade. They are the model organization above all others.
Yea take away Robinson and Duncan and they would have been like everyone else. The character those two put on display made everybody else fall in line. No Duncan or Robinson and the culture wouldn't have changed in San Antonio. Coach Pop would not have lasted without those guys setting the tone to buy in.
Hows that "pressure to win at home" thing working out?
Its just not relevant.
You're a clown , you only remember one side of the theory, and for that "I laugh at you" LOL
You left out the most important element, the visiting team brining it and playing hard for 48 minutes. You sumpin !
Right either the home team gets tight because the road team brings it for 48 min and the home team loses OR the home team doesn't get tight because the road team didn't bring it for 48 min and thus the home team wins.
Your theory amounts to nothing more than "either the home or road team will win." You just then added a few vague statements to the theory.
No, the home team gets tight because of the pressure from family, the fans, and local media who all expect them to win. so when the visiting team brings it for 48 minutes they will have the advantage in a tightly contested playoff game. Now when the visiting team doesn't bring it , the home team with their fans cheering them on , it gives them momentum and works in a positive way.
The game is 90% mental and 10% physical. Bonn I don't expect you and Nalod agree and I definitely don't expect you guys to understand.LOL
You're just adding one more vague statement - pressure from family, fans, media.
To use formal language, the problem is you're inferring cause from effect. You see that the home team is winning (effect or outcome) and that is your evidence that (a) there must have been too much family etc pressure and (b) the road team is "bringing it for 48 min." Likewise, if you see the home team is losing, then that itself is your evidence that the road team is "bringing it for 48 min."
If you had some way independent of the outcome to measure these factors (family pressure, road team bringing it) and could then show that those measurements predicted the outcome of the game, that would be another story.
I was following this discussion with interest. Was there a response to this?
Very novel, Playa2 very novel.

There must be some kind of "mother complex" attached to this as well.

Lebron is a proven champion. He's the only player in the league who's not allowed to ever have back-to-back bad shooting nights.

I hope these teams can play well at the same time for Game 5 the games have been boring

They guy is not Jordan. That does not make him a mental midget.
He is 1-3 in finals. Losing in the finals is not the making of a "loser". Not when your a 4 time MVP.
If this is the case, then a guy never won an MVP and who has been to the playoffs 10 times but only out of the first round twice must be one hell of loser!

What people don't understand is you don't see the visiting team bring it for 48 minutes and the home team still win in these playoffs. WHY IS THAT !
If it's close they can't deal with the added pressure of fans and media they turn the ball over or start clanking shots.

I think every big time player would get questioned if they were shooting 38% for the series.

Mike Monroe @Monroe_SA 9h
Bosh fined for flop in Game 4 for flailing arms after minor contact from Duncan;
iggy opts out. Does he want more cash up front or more years for security?

Of course. Playa did more than just question his performance in the series though.
