No one would ever follow Ray through a screen again. 


Did you see him lay out Davis at the end of the game?

Yeah this huge no-call allowed Miller to get his wide open 3... glad he missed it because it would have been outrageous to get a 3 on that "screen".

Refs were terrible on both ends today.

Yeah that was a bad one. KG's two phantom fouls also were awful. (though KG got away with hacking LeBron later so one of those canceled out)

One no call, does not make up for two bad ones in my opinion.  The one ref seemed to have it in for us.  Other guys were ok.

I thought that was a solid screen by Wade.  Baby never saw it coming and it laid him out.  Nice miss, Miller.  Great win, Celtics.

Theres no was it was clean, if it was clean Wade would have been knocked back. He laid him out like John Hannah.

I thought it was a good solid screen too. Glad Miller missed!

His feet may have been planted (for less then a second), his top half was still in motion.  There is no way he could have knocked down Baby like that if he was standing still.  Davis has way to much inertia.

Actually that makes it worse IMO.  I would like the refs to do no make up calls and forget about the call they just made and continue to try to call the game fair each call for its own...

But we know that won't ever happen... ugh.

I find myself hating Wade and Big Z now because of LeBron...

I really think the refs let a lot go on both sides.  If you read the Heat boards the refs handed the game to the Celtics.  But I saw a lot of stuff the Heat got away with too.  I think they let them play for the most part.  They did tighten up a bit in the 4th quarter in the Heat's favor but not much.

He wasn't set at all and leaned into it with his forearms. Clear moving screen, teams get away with it a lot (the C's included) but you shouldn't let someone get away with it one foot off the ball in clear view.
