These fouls are ridiculous. Two      consecutive fouls on Lowry that were NOT fouls. Cmon refs grow a pair.

Shot selection sucks

C's have the lead at the half, which is definitely better than trailing, but I have a sick feeling in the pit of my stomach about the second half.  Butler's going to live at the line while the C's roster is all in foul trouble, Bam is going to dominate the boards, Lowry's going to live at the line and win an acting award at the end of the game and the Miami bench brigade will get red hot from 3.

feeling a total meltdown coming

I think very few of the calls in this half have been incorrect.

We've become the much less aggressive team and we're committing stupid fouls.  It's on us.

WE drove the whole half!

No.  We drove the first quarter.  Then we slowed way down and settled for jumpshots. 

The energy level of this team plummeted in the second quarter and the foul disparity is one of the symptoms.

Yeah. We started settling for three pointers and let the Heat live at the free throw line

[blink]

God Brown is an idiot. What an idiotic shot.

And then the refs just CON

TINUE to be the best players for the Heat. 15-8 on fouls. Totally rigged league. Clear awful call on Smart.

god, Brown is the only reason we have the lead at this point....15 points 5 rebounds 3 assists ZERO turnovers and he is an IDIOT?
grow up.

If you say so. I saw a total double standard.

League deserves it.

[Boston Garden Leprechaun]

Ref agenda- keep it close, no blowout.
Mission accomplished

yup

i was thinking same thing

RATINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Silas]

16 fouls vs 7 fouls.  Refs are helping the Heat tonight.

[RJ87]

Heat were going to make a run. They're not going to lay down and die. We still have the lead, just have to come out the right way in the 3rd.

[Docmattic]

Really tough break with the foul calls. Celts getting fouled left and right and but called for everything.

[liam]

Everyone on the Heat is always flopping while constantly fouling our guys.

[angryguy77]

Honestly it being close may help us avoid a 3rd qtr collapse. They won't be able to get complacent.
