So how much does it cost to fix the NBA Finals?

this article was written before game 4:


Kevin Durant, you're a star? LeBron James will put you in foul trouble

"....In Game 3, three of Durant’s five fouls came on defensive calls while guarding James (one was on an offensive foul he put on James). That runs the total to six of Durant’s 12 fouls in this series coming courtesy of defending James.

This is not new. In the Eastern Conference finals, Paul Pierce was in foul trouble four times in seven games, and 14 of his 29 fouls were on calls against James. In the conference semis, Danny Granger of the Pacers was in foul trouble in three of six games, and 16 of the 21 calls against him came while defending James. In the opening round, Carmelo Anthony tried his hand at guarding James and was in foul trouble in three of five games. A total of 16 of the 21 fouls against Anthony came while defending James."

the heat outplayed okc. but to say they got there on their own is quite naive. the heat did get help from the NBA in some shape or form. ninjas got to stop acting like game fixing and the league helping a team out for financial reasons is a myth. the shit happens and it happens alot.

Dummies who never played ball dont realize that guarding a guy who drive hard in the paint is always going to put the defender in foul problem... Check Jordan defenders stats, as opposed to jump shooters.....

Dummy logic::

Why is James such a star? Dummy: because the refs cheat for him..
Why do they cheat for him? Dummy: Because he is such a big star..
Again how did he become a star? Dummy: Because they cheat for him..
Why not cheat for other player? Dummy: Because they are not stars.
How can they make a person a star because he is a star? Dummy: you do realize you are talking to a Dummy right?

People can't even keep fucking a teacher on the hush, but somehow y'all think that they can keep something as major as this quiet. Y'all dudes.....

Mike & Mike broke this shit down perfectly. Why do people believe David Stern fixes the NBA? Why would the highest paid commissioner in all of sports have fixed games or lotteries. That is a criminal activity that will get tried in front of congress and shut your league down. Commissioner Stern is not Kwame Kilpatrick so you cats really need to stop with this shit.

And have him sent to prison.

- post them.

I don't recall drexler, dumars, gary payton, byron russell, or any other 2 guards in the league getting into constant foul trouble when defending jordan.

jordan usually got fouled by centers or power forwards while in the paint...

lebron gets fouled by his own defenders all the time, and seemingly everywhere - that is odd.
