They do not need to call fouls unless blood flows.(jk) It is getting rediculous how many fouls are called. Let the players handle the outcome, not the refs.

How you can call those fouls on Pierce and LeBron, in that situation, is ridiculous.

I think they got the Garnett call right though, because he did hold him. It just wasn't a charge.

Stern wants a seven game series.

Let the record show if Bosh was playing, this series would have been over.

He would like that.

But I meant he's on board to straighten out this officiating and I think it will be better next year as a result.

I feel like a typical Heat hater for talking about LeBron, but what the heck. MJ never rode the bench for any period of time in the 4th quarter of an ECF game.

I think you have to chalk that up to foul trouble. Jordan played in an era when basketball was, or at least seemed (Mason, Oakley, Laimbeer, Rambis, etc.), more physical. Hand checks were not called as often, and almost anything went in the paint; on top of that, Jordan was rarely called for anything other than the most obvious foul.

Lebron just picked up his 5th. Also, Phil always tried to sit Jordan the first part of the 4th qtr to keep him fresh.

MJ also never was fouled out on a garbage call either. The double foul call was garbage and I'm a Heat fan, and even I will admit that foul call on Garnet towards the end of regulation was garbage as well.

Since when is a wrist lock acceptable? That was an absolute foul on Garnett

The "foul" called on Pierce that was his 6th was pathetic.
The "foul" called on James that was his 6th was pathetic.

The officiating overall in the series has been pathetic.

LeBron beats Peitrus to the block and Peitrus hooks him with his left hand and falls back and that's a foul on James?

Miami should have been shooting free throws instead of a turnover.

I never said it wasn't a foul. I just said it was garbage, it's the playoffs and at the end of the game refs should not try to decide the game, but they had to call something. I agree on the other 2 those 2 fouls were garbage and I believe I listed the Lebron foul as garbage. I kind of think the ref's called 2 different halves last night and have done it all post season but bottom line is had the Heat not dug themselves in an early hole, the "pathetic" foul calls wouldn't have mattered.
