If Kevin Love isn't hitting shots, he is absolutely useless. My word.

Looks like the ball hit the backboard. Should've been a goaltend on Lebron.

Two missed calls in a row then.  The ball was out on Young on the previous play.  'Dipo's shot was clearly a goaltend.

Yeah it sure looks like it.  Can't they take a look at that, inside of 2 min??/ 

There really needs to be some change in the rules to let coaches challenge some calls.  Too many missed calls are determining the outcome of games in the playoffs.

Yet another crucial playoff game where the refs likely influenced the outcome of the game.  ::) What a joke NBA officiating is.

Lol, LeBron is incredible. Best player in the world by a mile obviously, but we knew that already. His teammates are terrible however.

That was a clear goaltend by Lebron on that last play.

Respect.  He's still the best.  Got some help from Korver tonight but otherwise had to do it himself.

On the other side, this game isn't close if Dipo doesn't go 2-15.  He needs to be better for Indiana to take the series back.

They definitely should have, or the Pacers, well, at least should have lobbied for it.

No, they have to actually call it a goaltend to look at it, which they CLEARLY won't do against Lebron. And actually, they almost always call that in those situations just so that they can look at it and make sure.

But you're exactly right about needing coach's challenges. The state of NBA officiating is so p--- poor right now that officials are now legitimately influencing playoff game results by missed calls or poor calls.

He has.  5-15, 5-20, 2-15 in his last three games.  That won't get it done.
