The refs for the most part have left the two teams play this game.  Not buying the flops or minor contacts.  Nice to see.
I agree, these teams have 100% been allowed to play in this game.  The Finals have been a FT parade for a long time, and last year was probably the worst since the Wade fiasco in '06.  I could only imagine if a Celtics playoff series was called like this and KG was getting away with the stuff on D that Duncan is.
Philly:

Anderson Varejao    Tiago Splitter    Matt Bonner
David West    Kenyon Martin    Brad Miller
Andre Iguodala    Josh Childress    Marquis Daniels
Dwyane Wade    Leandro Barbosa
Kirk Hinrich    Toney Douglas   + the legendary Kevin McHale

James ...to me anyways seem to coast the first two quarters and somewhere during the third come out on court like he was blow out of a cannon....reduce the opponents lead.....just take over and win.
When he decided it was time to play.

Spurs are relentless ,  not letting James save his energy the first half , and then let him run wild the last two quarters.

His strategy might not work here ...he needs to play defense and rebound the first two quarters ....he just coasts.

I agree that the officials have been fair .......meaning not giving James every call

Had this rEqual and just officiating been applied to the Heat Celtics series past.....the Celtics win going away.

I can't help but think Stern was somehow responsible for the bias officiating  concerning James .

Lenard , pushes the ball , runs up court , every play , rebounds and plays D like crazy .

I think his youth is taking its toll on Lebron trying to match his energy.

This is what happens when the refs let basketball players play basketball and not street football.

This is a pretty pathetic showing by Miami. Just goes to show you how terrible the EC was this season. Miami basically skipped to the Finals and this has been no contest.

If the Heat need to ditch one of the big 3 to sign Melo, they should ditch Wade, he's cooked

Yeah...Wade is just not able to do what he used to on court .  He looks old .with most of his moves.....

Wades shots in his legs are wearing off I guess.

Good drugs make you play better....ask DWill

Healthy young legs of Lenard killing the Heat
