When we were pushing the 10 point lead in the 4th, I had a feeling the invisible hand would put them back in the game. And then it happened, the worst non-charge call of the season. Lebron coming around a screen like a freight train looking behind him for the ball. Maxiell standing like the English Royal Guard for approximately 23 seconds before he was leveled. Blocking foul??? wait... that one was too obvious, how do we get out of this... double foul, jump ball.
WTF? Is that a possible call in that circumstance? I want to see that on the Ronnie Nunn segment.
Tayshaun's travel? That wasn't a travel, he kept his right as the pivot and then jumped off of both feet.
Billups drives baseline, gets massacred by LeBron. He rotates 90 degrees in the air from the contact. No call.
LeBron drives to the hoop. Phantom call when Tay leaves a good 2 feet between them. I watched in super slow mo on the DVR, the only contact between those 2 bodies was Lebron's off arm fending away Tay's arm, which was straight up.
I'm telling you, the NBA did not want us to meet them in the ECF after sweeping them in the regular season. That would not be good for the old ratings.
Yeah, we could have done a lot of things better, but we still had the second best team in the East beat.
