Do we want to discuss how Kyrie is only 24? Or do we all want to bust a nut in some Wiggins/Embiid/Towns/Simmons thread?

That's right.

Those dunks he had reallyyyy took me back to that time. What a filthy dunk on Klay, especially.

Been saying it for over a year now.... if this team stays together Kyrie will be MVP in about 2-4 years.

Westbrook, Curry, etc all hit their peaks around 27-28 years old.

Once Kyrie is that age, Lebron will be mid 30's and start to decline. But he's not like Kobe, he's an unselfish player and will switch his game to feature Kryie as the main scorer.

You forgot a couple, Giannis and Jabari.

If you call "smoked" after the Bucks abused Lebron and Kyrie, then went to an overtime game, and LeGod smacked Giannis in which he was disqualified before the end of the game. And the last game in which the Cavs won, Kidd pulled the starters with 8 minutes left. Lue left in his starters until the 3+ minute mark to seal the win.

If you want "smoke", you've probably got some in a baggie somewhere due to the way your brain must work.

Pulled the starters because they were getting smoked by 19. And this was without 2 of our starters.

Anyways, the Bucks are a .500 team, what are you doing in this big boy thread anyways.

So much hostility and vulgarity on Christmas lol

It would be nice though if a playoff series is 1 game. That would make the playoffs exciting from first jumpball!

Kyrie was just like those guys without LeBron. Same good stats/bad team guy before along came LeBron...

And yet reality is reality.

You can say that about anyone. So Wiggins sucks, for all intents and purpose of winning, until he gets a true star? Cool...It's a cute effort though.

The contact was incidental but should have been a foul. But Durant got a playoff win tripping on his own feet so screw him

These reports really are bad for the NBA though.

pingbling23 · 12-26-2016, 11:17 PM

Green should have been ejected in the first half, there was about 20 no calls that went the warriors way.... on and on and on. This is sports, it's like this in every game in every sport. The article would have more substance if it was unbiased and went through the whole game and showed every single discrepancy.

irfuji · 12-27-2016, 09:29 AM

Personally, I'm ok with the two no calls that the NBA said should have been called.

Lebron's no technical makes up for the technical on Jefferson that should not have been called.

With the way the ref's called that game the entire time I'm also ok with the no call on Durant at the end. They let them play all game. Both teams could have been called for a ton of fouls throughout and the contact with Durant was way less than contact that had not been called all game.

As a player all you really want from the refs is consistency. Don't call something a foul on one end and let it go on the other. I thought the refs did really well doing that the entire game.

The NBA just tells the truth. It does suck that refs miss easy calls. Both affected the outcome of the game. No one wants the refs helping decide the game.

The NBA doesn't ever accounce missed calls throughout the whole game do they?

Wouldn't that be about the most boring job to just go through every minute of every game and look for missed calls? lol

Yea because they would find hundreds of missed calls lol. Think about how many missed travel calls there are

I knew the answer lol. I was testing him. Bad calls happen throughout the game we get that. Anything that happens AT the end of games is always looked at much closer. Lebron hanging on the rim was an obvious missed call. The RJ push was much less obvious.
