Heat (1-3) at Celtics (3-1) Game 5 4/27

[radiohead]

How can that be foul on Ray? The last thing we need is to let miami hang around and gain confidence. And now a crazy T on perk?? C'mon refs!

[slamtheking]

the refs are looking for any excuse to make calls against Boston after that BS call. 

Even Mike says "ball don't lie" on that tech miss

[FallGuy]

Man, this is an ugly game.

[fairweatherfan]

When you absolutely, positively, need an announcer to allege the NBA is conspiring to extend the series through one-sided officiating while announcing a playoff game on the league's official network...

MR TOMMY HEINSOHN!!


Love it.

22 points in the paint, no free throws, and 1 foul on the Heat in 15 minutes.  Tell em Tommy.

officiating really sucks

[FallGuy]

Tommy usually comes off like a space cadet with respect to the calls but it's fun to think the national audience is getting his commentary tonight. Stern simply will not silence him. Nor apparently will Comcast.

[Drucci]

With 5:40 left in the first half :

Celtics personal fouls : 8
Heat personal fouls : 1
Technical fouls : Celtics 2 (defensive + Perk)

Yay.

[nickagneta]

Mike and Tommy and playoff basketball. I can go to heaven happy now!!!

[celticinorlando]

i guess the heat can clutch, grab, hold, elbow and push while the Cs can't even try to defend. i swear...officials in the nba have too much impact on the game

boston has 0 FT attempts

[mahonedog88]

sloppy sloppy half.

too bad Stern's not there tonight.  would love to be in the crowd sitting around him and giving my thoughts on the quality of officiating in the league in this game in particular

glad to see Tommy doesn't tone it down for anyone

I don't remember many non-calls we should have got. Quoting free throw disparity isn't a convincing argument to me. Particularly when the C's shot so well in the first quarter.

[CoachBo]

It is time for Rivers to blow his top and get a T. Period. Coach shouldn't sit back and watch this.

Yeah, it's pretty [dang] entertaining.

Wade miss at the line after that crap call  "ball don't lie"
