    We needed this win badly. Every other team in the west won tonight, it seems. It cost us with the Gordon injury. Glad the good guys pulled it out. Boston can be nasty.

    Hey guys watch it and notice how Mr Smart flies like he got shot out of a cannon. Idk who even touched him to have that sort of reaction. What a dirty flopper!!!! He added sound effects to flopping also.

    It's pretty damn obvious that this play was designed to send harrel and bev to the floor.
    Poor officiating once again.

    Obviously you have difficulties to understand what are facts and what are your fantasies, whatever you want to call me is fine.

    But just imagine if Bos won't miss that easy layup, how many real Harden haters you will be seeing in the last 5 pages and the next 10 pages in this thread?

    Watch what Isaiah Thomas does to Montrezl. He knows his pick will be ineffective so he pulls him down by the arm. Cheap play, cheap result. Suck it, Boston.

    thomas clearly grabs harrell's arm/hand and pulls him down to the floor in order to open up the clear drive for horford......wonder if stevens actually drew this up

    He travels when he catches the ball...moves both feet then dribbles.

    Agreed the refs blew that call. That was a 3pt shot by Bradley. His black shoes cost him there as they couldn't see the space.

    This is very true.

    But think about it, if Horford will just stop and pop a mid range jumper, I will not like our chance in that situation either.

    Bottom line, that's a very bad defensive inbound play.

    Yea I watched the final play and and smart launches himself out of bounds trying to sell a push in the back on the rebound. It was just plain silly.

    So basically, Horford travels, Thomas makes a judo move on Trez, and Smart already looking for a stuntman career, all in 5 seconds

    Mike's interview is honest and openly admitted they forked it up on the no. of fouls in the last couple processions.

    For this alone, he is miles better than Mchale and BJ.

    And then clearly sticks his foot out to trip Bev on a full-run. Then Smart flops like a total idiot under the rim. What a collection of ridiculousness. How do the refs not call that **** on Thomas? Wtf.
