    Damn. Could have been a foul on that last play as well. These playoffs have been crazy inconsistent as far as how the referees call certain fouls.

    haha.

    allen wrapped his arms around joe johnson's leg at the end of that. the refs can call or not call whatever they feel like.

    it's getting pretty sickening.

    If you hit someones hand and that makes the ball go out then its out on you regardless of who touched the ball last. PEOPLE JUST DONT KNOW THE RULES!!!!
    THE REFS ARE MAKING THE RIGHT CALLS.

    Should have been a foul tho. Clearly hit on the forearm.

    Heard on the radio. Really that obvious, huh? smh

    Host said LeBron committed other uncalled fouls too.

    WHOOOOOOOOO!!! that was eerily reminiscent of last year's closeout game 5 against the Bulls... how fitting - Ray Allen puts his ol buddies out to pasture.

    Now that wasn't a foul. Stop looking for things. That was just great defense.

    Lebron definitely fouled Pierce earlier. Refs were just freaking blind. Refs need to be fined for every missed call. Wouldn't guarantee the Nets a win or even OT, but that was so clear/blatant of a foul.

    Hand is different than the forearm. You don't know the rules. This was explained repeatedly last night.

    They blew two calls to arrive at the correct result.

    They gave the ball back to Brooklyn even though it went out on Pierce, so it evened out.

    You guys can complain about ref's and league is rigged.

    At the end of the day, most ppl posting here would tune more in the finals if the game was Miami vs OKC/Spurs rather than Brooklyn vs OKC/Spurs.

    Not saying Brooklyn deserves to be in the finals, because clearly Miami is better and has had better games in this series.

    Pierce should've been shooing FTs.

    Not really. In this case, Pierce would have shot FTs. Again, wouldn't guarantee OT, but at least the Nets would have the opportunity to tie.

    Heat would have won this game anyways regardless.

    Exactly what I was thinking. Just dribble and shot a contested shot guys, play hard the game is in your hands!
