    Jesus Christ. They make it so obvious... Miami gets no calls, Dallas gets all the calls...

    Maybe it is just that the home team gets all the benefit of the doubt...which usually happens any ways...which is why these teams value homecourt so much.

    Last game too. Have you seen all the calls made? This is ridiculous. Even as a staunch Heat hater you have to admit. There are a LOT of questionable calls (and no calls against the Heat) present in this series.

    The refs have been doing a good job imo. Sometimes it seems they are giving each team make up calls but pretty fair.

    Payback for 2006. It all comes full circle.

    Game 3- yes

    Game 2- it took a miracle for Dallas to overcome the lopsided officiating (and it was not in their favor)

    dude, favoring a few calls is fine. but THE WHOLE GAME? this is one-sided as can be. it was refs gift-wrapping a game to a team.

    For the record, I voted yes.

    I have known this fact for at least a decade now.

    I also hate the fact that referees make up calls. It's bad enough that you as a referee were too stupid to get the call right. But it makes it even worse when those same referees make up a BS call just to "right their wrongs". Too wrongs don't make a right r****ds!

    Over the course of the game, if they just don't make up calls it'll all end up balancing out (since they are bound to miss calls for the other team too).

    That chalmers three at the end of the first half should not have counted.

    Are you denying that this was horrible officiating in Dallas' favor? Yes or No?

    Why not? Half a foot in the front court, got the shot off in time.

    This particular game, yes. Games 1 and 2 were completely in Miami's favor.

    Half of his foot was behind the line. His whole body has to be across.

    of course you did. you're a heat fanboy. they get 1/3 games called against this and then you start this thread. then every other heat fanboy came here and voted yes too
