2010-11 NBA Playoffs / Finals

Of the ways this game could've gone at half time, this was my least favorite.

[Bahku]

Wow ... home team getting the calls tonight ... terrible officiating.

[4THQTR]

oh man...
pacers really getting screwed over with those calls...
very frustrating and sad to see such poor officiating...

[aporel#18]

And now Stern boys being clutch... wow, Da Bulls don't need all this help to beat the poor Pacers, right?

Good night, Pacers

[rtifishul]

These refs are miserable, who knows how bad it'll get.

[GDAbraham]

HAHAHA. The home team gets bogus calls in the stretch and Indiana gets a legit one and the the crowd immediately chants 'b.s.' Whatever, dudes. So entitled.

[fairweatherfan]

Bad call on Rose - Price grabbed his arm and pulled it down.  Some shaky officiating out there.

[4THQTR]

i'm torn...
i'm happy they didn't call a T on rose for reacting emotional...
but i've seen Ts called for a lot less...

[aporel#18]

Derrick morphing into LeRose    MVP and clutch!!

[GDAbraham]

The terrible thing is whoever wins it's going to feel anticlimactic and tainted.

[Tai]

Really poor officiating here. Really poor. Hibbert did not commit an offensive foul. Foster definitely got pushed out of bounds.

Haha, but according to some guys on this board, you can't call that foul in the last few minutes of the game. 

The Pacers let another game get away with them, but the refs didn't help at all, no question.

[JoT]

So from what I've read Indiana seemed to choke... again, but the refs didn't help. All I know is that both the analysts and fan of the opposing team better not bring up the Celtics and their refs ever again. Because if what was said was true about the refs, then their fans really should be ashamed. That's like Laker fans complaining about the refs yesterday when they've had questionable quarters and games to win championships.
Besides I wanted Indiana to win and they tried their hardest, but theyre not playoff proven yet mentally or clutch wise from what I see.  They can keep trying by making the bulls tired and fight for a win.

what's this tell you the Bulls AND REFS are going to be a tough out

[PosImpos]

The Pacers will be back, and they'll be tougher when they are.  But right now they are just a bit short of an actually competitive playoff team.  Indy fans should feel really good about the potential their team is showing out there, though.  Collison / George / Granger / Hansbrough / Hibbert is a young, talented starting 5 you can count on moving forward.  They just need to add depth and gain experience.

Rose free throw count has gotta be at about 35 after the first 2 games.
