Observations from the Stands - Game 7

[ma11l]

Did you spend 125 for both seats combined?

No it was 125 a pop.  There were 5 of us and we got 3 together in one row and the other 2 right behind us.  We got pretty lucky being so close considering it was 45 minutes before the game and there were 5 of us.

Congrats to your sister! How old is she and what is she going to do next?

I was at the game tonight as well. Topic creator was spot on with his analysis. This game is tied for second along with ECF Game 3 against the Nets as the best sporting events I have been to in person.

Just what the world needs, more lawyers.

I've always thought Brady was a jerk, so that doesn't really surprise me.

Thanks for the recap.  Sounds like a pretty amazing experience.  It's awesome that you could go with your whole family.

Bahku:  Did anyone else notice LeBron blatantly step out of bounds when he drove the baseline? He was about 2 feet from Kenny Mauer when he did it, it was clear as day on TV, right in front of him, and yet Kenny blew the whistle for a foul and put LeBron on the line ... it was absurd!

Honestly, half the calls LB got, Mauer was blowing the whistle before the fouls even took place! If LeBron had the ball and was heading to the basket, that's all Ken had to see, and he'd bail LB out time-after-time. I think Kenny's got a man-crush on the Le Ballerina!

We got our revenge at the end when LeBron tried to throw himself into PJ Brown to get a foul. Instead PJ backed off, throwing LeBron off balance and making him miss the shot. And amazingly, no call. I also thought LeBron walked when PJ backed off.

We won and shouldn't have to bother with the refs, but another call was when Delonte charged into Rajon and it was called a block. It was a charge.    So it was 5 against 8 and we won.    Oh yeah, at the end KG was fouled by Ilgauskas while going for a rebound. Ilgaukas hacked KG across the shoulder and KG went down hard, no fake fall. No foul.

To add to above. Did that out of bounds play by James occur when Perk was called for the foul. If so Perk was really mad and the announcers were making Perk look like a fool for arguing. Perk really did commit a foul, but it was after James stepped out of bounds. That was what Perk was complaining about.   Out of my system.
