    Birdman vs Hansborough. We all saw that coming.

    Why doesn't Birdman get thrown out for that?

    ^ They probably should have. He escalated everything and then had the ref forcefully push him backwards.

    Yes, more than one article that is followed by a completely manipulative poll that you base your idea of "most people" on would be interesting. I'm sure that you have spent some time nitpicking the articles that suit your argument, so I will enjoy reading your skewed perspective as written by people better apt to argue than you obviously are.

    I'm not dodging. Anyone with a working brain knows that I am steering you back to the argument at hand. But we both know what happened back in the day, little guy. I'm not attempting to convince the masses of that. Just giving you a polite reminder. No convincing necessary.



    Did we? Were you using your current username? :)

    You did. The only thing I truly remember is you giving me kudos for random threads and me trying to figure out if you were part of that chat group of wanna-be hackers that spent half their time on /b/ thinking they were witty.

    You never really struck me as someone that knew anything about sports. You still don't.

    Oh, that's right, we are talking about the obvious Lebron foul. I keep forgetting that when you start trying to bring other arguments into this argument.

    So... are you still pretending that a manipulative poll proves that Lebron didn't foul in the fourth quarter of the last game?


    I guess they were forgettable.

    I could keep this going for days, Yisman. I could make you look foolish.

    But I'm not going to. There are many days ahead, and this isn't the thread for it.

    I'm going to do what you should have done pages ago and end this argument for the sake of the subject of this thread.

    Here's your weak victory. You have earned it.

    I'm done.

    Congratulations, Yes Man.

    Lebron is terrified of Hibbert it seems. He's messing up the ball flow by not attacking Hibbert.

    Wade is just not playing well. Just looks lost

    No, I posted one article. There are others.



    Funny you talk about working brains. Your brain is obviously compensating for its inability to remember much of anything by fabricating memories. You made up some lame story about me which absolutely never happened. If it had, I would know.

    Any other good stories, grandpa? How about the time you told the forum you had sex with a goat?


    I've never been on /b/, whatever that is.

    I'm glad you have another fabricated memory, though. Me giving you kudos? :breakdance: You wish.

    Well, since we both know I know a lot more about sports than you ever will, what does that say about you?



    It's true, you do keep forgetting, and start talking about other things randomly. You ever try Ritalin? It could help.

    Nice to see you don't even know what we're arguing about. I was arguing about whether it was a clear cut foul, which it clearly was not.



    Sounds like fun. I've already made you look foolish, grandpa.

    Oh, so you're running away because you've been unable to sufficiently address a single one of my points? I see.


    Congratulations on the name calling. That's what the weak minded do when they can't present a convincing argument.

    LOL. There will be plenty of other threads. Congrats on shitting on one of the few you seemed to really care about.

    Risking accusations of moderator authority, you seem singularly unfit for the task.

    Haslem just took Hibbert off the dribble. Ok that makes sense.

    You're the one shitting all over it. In case you've forgotten (which seems likely), you started this argument, not me. I merely posted that I didn't see how it was a foul.

    That's nice. And you're unfit to call me names, but you do it anyway.

    But congratulations on starting yet another argument that you couldn't finish.

    You started one about the Harden flagrant, then quit and pretended it never happened when I made you look foolish.

    You start this one, then start trying to deflect to invented memories you have. Not only did the thing you alleged never happen, it has absolutely zilch to do with this thread. Try to focus.

    LOL? Is that how you post on /b/? Tell us more about what /b/ is, you must be a regular.

    Pretty sure Leborn had words for Lance after that midrange jumper.

    Lebron was struggling from midrange heading into this game. Getting some really clean looks which helps

    I think Lebron has more points than the Pacers this quarter.

    Nice read by Mario there. Lebron rolled hard causing Hibbert to obviously pull into the paint, Mario waited and just gave it to Haslem who Hibbert left on the baseline and Haslem drilled it.

    It's also amazing how IND has no reliable ball handlers if George HIll is not on the floor

    For anyone that doesn't jerk off to league-acceptable calls, Hibbert was fouled three times before he was physically able to call the TO.

    Wonder if there will be a poll about that tomorrow.

    TNT smartly cuts the slo mo replay of Lebron's 3 as he yells Mother-....

    You know it's a different scenario and situation than someone fouling out with 30 seconds left. It shouldn't be different, but calls/plays late in games get highlighted a 100x more than early in the game.

    It's why one of these missed calls on George Hill giving him 4 fouls won't be reviewed 100000x but the Wade travel and missed shot clock are. Because the 50/50 calls go both ways, shot clock violation is clear as day in the rulebook no subjective nature, and traveling is never called in the NBA.

    Different scenarios, people won't focus on what happens early, only what is surprising or happens late in the game
