Lebron, can he be stopped?

[tomgallagher]

I have never in my life seen a more poorly called, biased game as game 6 of this series in my life... It's pathetic that the NBA has to have Lebron in the Finals soooo bad that they can't just let two teams play and see who wins.

Go SPURS!!

Not sure what game you watched, but I have not heard any complaints anywhere of the officiating, even from the Pistons. They did let the two teams play. As physical as the series was, the Pistons ego and old age finally gave in to the young kids and they fell apart in the 2nd half.

Don't get to confident in your Spurs. There is a lot of age there too, and their dynasty will need to come to an end soon. Maybe this year against the Cav's. And I would hate to read in the tabloids about a sly bald guy having his foot surgically removed from his mouth! 

But having been a lifelong Cleveland fan, I am used to disappointment from our teams, not having a champion since the '64 Browns. 

I'm not a Cleveland or Detroit fan and I don't know what game you watched either Rob. Sounds like a little bias showing there.

Of course there is no complaining about the officiating... no one wants to get suspended or fined an extrodinary amount of $$$.

Just look at the number of free throws per team:  Detroit - 27, Cleveland - 46

And a lot of the shots that the Pistons put in the basket got denied for some mysterious foul...

Sorry to all you Cav's fans, but it was definitely not a fairly called game and it was given to them.

Nonsense. I guess they gave Gibson all those 3 balls and somehow arranged to get that hothead Wallace tossed. I guess we will have to agree to disagree Rob.

Watch the game again...

And anyone who follows basketball knows, the NBA will get teams to the finals that they want there... not who the best teams are.  It's all about ratings...

From ESPN:

3. LeBron James' mere presence guarantees that this series will actually be watched by the masses now, which might finally give the Spurs some of the overdue spotlight they deserve.

Ho hum. Boring.

Of COURSE there was a big difference in foul shots. Any REAL basketball fan can tell you why. When a team becomes fatigued this late in a series and start falling behind, the only way to stop the other team from going around you to the basket is become physical, and foul them

And the Pistons have never been a team to go quietly. If the officiating was unfair, they  would have been the first ones to complain.

Ho hum. Boring.

And this is all you have to say for only your second post on this site?

I dont know...

I also watched the game...and watched the highlights again and must say that it was a pretty fair game. The cavs seemed to want it more.

But thats just my .02.

...and i dont think the nba tries to place any two teams in the finals for the ratings. the finals are able to do that without having to have any special teams in there...if they wanted to draw some attention to the finals, why didnt they have GSW make it to the finals...imagine the headlines, GSW beats jazz, spurs, and on its way to win the championship...sounds a lot more of a cinderella story that ppl eat up than the cavs making it to the finals...
