someone made an interesting point that its harder to play a more passing game with all three healthy.
free throws, layups, dunks, and open 3's. the heat are getting the shots they want on most of their possessions and missing almost everything. lebron is practically just a 0% 3 point shooter these days.
man, the 1st quarter was so rigged for the heat that the celtics shot just as many free throws as the heat and actually got more free throws from the penalty than the heat did. i'm not sure miami made a single somewhat difficult shot that quarter and missed plenty of good looks. need to tighten up the defense considerably, though.
i guess that 1-0 lead the heat have is insurmountable. no need to try 2 games in a row. now 6-24 and still not playing D.
whole celtics team on fire from the perimeter right now. not a good time to be 7-27. edit: is chalmers ****ing serious? he just hit his first 3 in like 9 attempts in the series and he starts talking trash coming up the court while the team is down 12? brilliant play there. edit edit: chalmers fouled with no call. rigged!!
lebron and wade 2-13 (is bad dwade making a return?), celtics shooting as well as they can possibly shoot on jumpers, and rondo with as many free throws as the entire heat team (rigged for the heat i tell ya). i'm almost surprised the lead isn't bigger.
Clear Path to the Basket: If a fast break starts in a team’s backcourt and a defender fouls any offensive player when the team is going to score an easy basket, a clear path foul has occurred. When the foul happens, no defender can be ahead of the ball where he could defend against the easy basket. http://www.nba.com/features/misunderstoodrules_051128.html#Clear_Path_to_the_Basket According to this page from NBA.com the refs made the right call. Rondo did not commit a clear path foul because Boston has 2 players in front of the ball when the foul occurred. LeBron's position didn't matter
