    Did anyone else see the Cavs' game, LeBron fouled Granger with like .2 seconds left on an alley oop attempt, and Granger nailed a FT to seal the game. After the game, Mike Brown absolutely ripped the officials. He has a fine coming his way.

    The ironic thing about it? with .8 left in the game, Granger "fouled" James on an alley-oop attempt and LeBron nailed both FT's to tie the game at 95.

    Interesting way to end the game, to say the least.

    They weren't. Granger got a make up call on LeBron.

    I wonder if that idiot Mike Brown thought that the call on Granger was the worst call he has ever seen, up until the call on LeBron? They were the EXACT same play.

    Mike Brown is a moron. The Granger call was absolutely not a foul, and for Brown to think that it was and LeBron's wasn't is ridiculous. And LeBron did get star treatment...until that final play, when the officials realized how much they messed up. If the Pacers would have lost that game, it would have been absolute robbery.

    I hope Brown gets fined more than the $15k Doc Rivers got.

    Brown should see himself a hefty fine for what he said. I'm thinking it'll be at least $15k, but hopefully more.

    Cavs still don't have a quality road win.

    They aren't a quality road team, that is why.

    Props to Indiana's coaching staff for calling the ref's out on that shitty first foul call. They pulled out the exact same play and the ref's had no choice but to stay consistent.
