Guess it worked out for the Spurs after all right Lakers fans? Its been a while since we had some NBA trash talk. How do you think the series will end up? I'm calling Spurs in 6. I got tickets to game 3/4, and I'll probably go to game 5 once it goes on sale! Gonna be one of the best finals in a while IMO.

I think Miami will end up taking the series....... That is if they can pull their shit together. I think the series will go all the way to game 7, since the teams really are good competition for each other.

I agree with that. Those refs call some BS, thats for sure. But these have really been some good games!

Game 4 tomorrow! Should be a pretty intense game. Heat slapped the Spurs around in game 2, then they took a embarrassing lose game 3.. 4 should be off the hook!

I think the ref's are doing a great job on letting some of the defensive fouls go. They all know it's going to get a bit on the "edge' its the finals. Political, but still a sport with good players. just IMO

true, my only gripe is that calls are not consistantly made on both sides and no calls disrupt the flow and tempo of the game...the fact that this is the finals and it's on a much larger stage just intensifies the debate on refs and their impact on the game....don't get me started on joey crawford, he's the worst and most blatant of all the refs IMO of knowingly effecting the game...

manu had a "vintage" game just like dwade had in game 4. ballsy move for poppa to start manu after he's been playing so bad for most of the post season IMO, but a good gamble in hindsight..danny green is just on fire...the defense they are playing with lebron is great, making him work for everything and not letting him get into the lane very much....I have a feeling we will see 7 games though, like i said before..the NBA and the refs will make sure we get 7 games...

saw a good number of no calls again, but seemed to be balanced out for no teams...Lebron definitely got fouled a few times and the refs seemed to had lost their whistle or something...the games the heat have lost are similar to the old cav days with lebron...lebron gets shut down and/or disappears and he doesn't get much help from anyone else...

Got a ridiculous deal right before the game, I sat courtside next to the Heat bench. Wanted to share some pics I took. It was incredible to be there for this game.
