    So you didn't see any calls/plays that could've been called against Indy either? Way to blame a non-call for the game outcome...with a game being a 1 point victory you could look back on nearly any play and say..."but! but! look at that!!!!"...sour grapes man, the team you wanted to win so badly lost and they had so many opportunties to win, they just didn't finish.

    Easy travel in my book. Too bad the refs are afraid to call that in those last 10 seconds.

    Anyways, Bosh push off on Hibbert ruined the Pacers 1-0 lead.

    Not at all. That one play changed the outcome of the game completely. Let me know when you actually watched the entire game instead of box score hunting.

    @johnschuhmann: MIA averaged 30.7 points in the paint in three regular season meetings vs. IND. They had 60 tonight.

    And exactly how many NBA games have you officiated? How easy would it be for you to make that call? I'm sure Lebron James, in the pressure, behind the crowd noise is really easy to officiate seeing how slow he is and all. Maybe you need to take your book and be a professional ref...I'm sure you'd do much better than the scrubs out there lol.

    Lebron also averaged 21 points v. Indy in the reg. season. Man he was very lucky to do what he did tonight then I guess.

    Don't need to...just got to look at the scoreboard. I'm sorry you're upset...hopefully it will settle in okay with you that no matter how badly you want the Heat to lose that they will not. Maybe you should pick up a hobby like basketweaving or something...gotta get the edge off somehow you know...
    But, but, hibbert was pushed!!!! ZOMG! Right buddy, that one play was the play of the entire game in a 1 point victory...just keep telling yourself that...

    And yet nobody in the media has even remotely brought that notion up.

    Don't worry, Bulls fans still think they should have beaten the Heat after all those "close" games.

    You need the media to realize that LBJ traveled?

    Lol. Such a flawed mentality. Again, continue looking at boxscores and pretending like you watched a great playoff game. ;)

    Yes, now I'm all of a sudden a Bulls fan, LOL.

    This is coming from a T-Mac fan who jumped on LBJ's bandwagon.

    Duh there were bad calls. They went both ways today. Some of you act like this is the first time you've seen an NBA game. Here's a thought: Indy got beat by the MVP and his team. Not too hard to grasp I hope.

    every nba player travels on their layups and dunks, they should probably just change the rule.

    I spotted empty seats in Miami.

    Epitome of a ****ty sports city.

    I watched this game at a bar on 6th Street, and groaned with everyone else when the Pacers defense collapsed at the worst possible moment. It was like the parting of the Red Sea. Here's the lane, LeBron! Take a stroll to the bucket! Incredible.

    Not only was it not a travel he learned how to do it from the best. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yF0vQGFpHrs&list=PL886AB75C92EA4D56&feature=player_detailpage#t=37s

    Watch the video.

    And you're allowed to take a step before you dribble. He catches the ball, his right foot is his pivot foot, he steps towards the hoop with his left foot (legal), and puts the ball on the floor. He takes 1-2 steps during the dribble, gathers the ball, then takes 2 steps and finishes.

    LeBron gets away with travels, no doubt, but this is hardly the play you're going to call an NBA player for traveling.

    I honestly thought that 3 point foul call was good and ref shouldn't just look the other way for at the end of game shots. If its a foul, call it.

    funny thing is the refs didn't give chalmers the call last year when he was fouled on a game tying 3 point attempt last year.
