Disgrace to sportsmanship in what way? He was looking at the ref and nazr shoved him he never saw it coming. Now it possibly could have been a flop but only Lebron knows. Both should have got ejected in my opinion. Lebron's elbow usually wouldn't be an ejection but every time someone fouls him he does that, so do to history I would have thrown him out. However, if there is any disgrace to sportsmanship I see it going to the Bulls. Verbally abusing refs, complaining about fouls. Like I have respect for Thibs but when you point the finger at the refs for a loss you lose a lot of credibility. Go out and play hard and stop whining, that's what got them to the second round.

Curry's left ankle was a huge factor, he wasn't able to move as sharp as he was moving against them Nuggets but its cool, not gonna sit here and complain. The better team won in the end. Warriors have a bright future, even brighter than the Lakers(call me crazy but it's true!) ;)

ps. a proud/loyal/hometown Warrior fan since 98! Btw, i wish we could draft "seth curry" but sadly, we don't really own any pick. lol ::)

As if the Pacers let Hibbert sit out for both of Miami's final possesions.. you think they would have learned it was a bad idea after the first Lebron blow by lay up....

+1 - that mistake cost them the game imho.

If anything, Hibbert would have created that down low presence that may have given Lebron a 2nd thought about driving to the rim in the last few seconds of OT.

Worst comes to worse, Lebron would have gotten fouled badly by Hibbert (hopefully missing the shot) and his fate would depend on 2 free throws (to either tie/win the game).

I'd much rather have that scenario then an open lay up to win the game.

That, or Lebron would have kicked it out to Chris Bosh for a semi open shot, while Hibbert would have to go close out, I'd rather have Chris Bosh shoot a semi contested game winning jumper instead of Lebron getting such an easy blow by lay up

I agree that Hibbert should have been in the game but the angle that George took was so bad that it would have been nearly impossible for Hibbert to help in time. However maybe the presence of Hibbert would have deterred Lebron from going to the rim and instead settling for a jumper. It was bad coaching but even worse defense by George who up until that point was playing amazing.
