Isn't it amazing how great a player can be when he is allowed to use his off arm CONSTANTLY to fend off defenders and it never gets called?

I mean don't get me wrong, I'm not a hater. After all, seeing his 'witness' commercial a gazillion times during the playoffs has brainwashed me into thinking that he is the greatest think since sliced bread. :roll:

But seriously, why don't they call this against him?

Oh, btw, go pistons

And if they do call it, whether charge or not, it's 2 freethrows for the King. Just go and watch Game 5 vs. Wizards again.

The problem Detroit is having is they're playing right into the type of game Cleveland wants by playing halfcourt offense every time down letting them set up their defense. We all know how porous their defense is in the transition so Detroit should break more.

The Pistons are too overconfident in their halfcourt offense. Under Larry Brown their offense consisted mostly of fastbreaks off of deflections, blocked shots, rebounds, and other defensive plays.

In the halfcourt offense this series they have been turnover prone.

pistons cant even score inside. I dont know if its the Cavs defense or Pistons lack of offensive game.

We are all witnesses all right. We are all witnesses to the officiating bias going on. This dude is more like Shaq then he is MJ, He bulls over people and every call goes his way. It's nuts. Kobe would get 2 and 3 offensive fouls a game in the Suns series and he isn't nearly as physical, and his go to move isn't to put his head down and run fools over. He is an amazing talent but he still hasn't learned how to play basketball. His passing is way overrated and his perimeter game is weak right now. Without the ability to draw fouls by running people over what would he be? What Arenas said is definitely true if it is a close game in the 4th quarter the only way you will win against this guy is to play out of your minds. Only the problem is it's not because he is that good it is because the refs will give he and his team every opportunity to win the game.
