I only watch basketball for the nicknames, I'm glad the nba is targeting people like me.

That was a straight up foul, he didn't touch the ball at all
Are you kidding? I assume you did not see the replay.
Trust me, I am no fan of LBJ or the Heat, and all though I'm from BKLYN, I could careless about the Nets...
He hit the bottom of LJ's hand, and the ball hit the rim because of it
You're wrong actually according to NBA rules.
This video walks through the entire play pretty clearly.

Order of occurrence. Lebron goes for dunk -> Plumblee makes contact with ball -> ball looses contact with Lebrons hand -> Plumblee makes contact with Lebrons hand
The rule some are wrongly saying applies is this, "Before the shooter releases the ball, any contact to the shooter’s hand, wrist or arm is illegal and a foul will be called."
Now ask yourself, did Plumblee make contact with Lebrons hand "before the shooter released the ball"?
The rule "Hand is part of the ball" applies in this situation. Nets won the game cleanly.
Its not even a hotly debated discussion really.

it's so phucking sad. How can you take it serious? Plums saves the day!
I gave up on Boston beating ATL and still do. I will not fall in to the hope trap that leads me to watch the game or check the score(more than twice
). Usually, I would go to watch the game only to watch a certain team comeback and win. It seems to always happen that way.
Boston was up by seven.
Korver hits a 3 to get them withing 2.
Korver is so underrated.
COME ON CELTICS!!! Up 9 now.
DAMN IT. Celtics gave it right back in a hurry.
Celtics gave this game away.
How can anybody not respect Korver? He is the difference maker every game I watch.
Noah needs one more assist for a triple double.

My super hero. What an underrated player.
I love the motion offense the Hawks run and then mix that with really good play from Teague and great shooting from Korver and they just execute better than most of the bad teams. Hawks are well coached but extremely talented. Makes no sense that the Hawks have a better record than the Knicks with the talent they have in comparison.

They are coached well and Korver is awesome. Milsap is very underrated. Teague is ok. They play smart basketball and have a much better "team" than we do.
wow indiana up by 3 with 4 seconds left and they foul a 3 point shooter! Oh man.
Indiana with the ball tied with 4 seconds.
Cope with a great drive and scores to win it. 18 points on 7/8 shooting.
Who needed Cope in the playoffs?

Wish we'd kept Copeland, said phuck Bargso and tried getting rid of Camby and Novak a different way. Seriously, everything Knick related is sooooooo sad in hindsight.

Yes. We could have had Lowry for what we gave up for Bargs!
The just makes me sick.

In my dream scenario the 1st would have gotten Lowry by itself and Camby/novak/2nd rd picks would have lead to SPencer Hawes. Lowry at pg and Hawes as a back up C would have been nasty. Then again Woodson was coaching.
