It's ridiculous when there wasn't anything there. It didn't happen to Thomas.

How can you say there's nothing there man? Thomas never gets above Lebron's waist and ends up tackling him. Just because he's tiny doesn't mean he can foul however he wants.

I don't even think that it was a flagrant foul. It was a hard foul, but it didn't look like it was malicious. I just disagree with your premise that Lue shouldn't have tried getting the refs to take a look at it. When a guy gets hit in midair and the defender doesn't make a play on the ball I don't see anything wrong with wanting the refs to review it. That doesn't mean they have to call the flagrant but it gives them a chance to see if they missed anything in real time. 

At home we can pause, rewind, all of that, but from where Lue was standing he sees his star going up for a layup and then someone knocking him down. Any coach is going to want the refs to review a play like that.

So Green getting any first team votes is freaking stupid, like should lose their voting privileges dumb. Dudes contracts play a big role in this voting and some guys who only watched Golden State play costs dudes money. 

This is the NBA and players associations fault for allowing such a arbitrary vote to impact contracts.

Almost as dumb as Lebron not getting all 1st team.

Final 3 for MVP are Leonard, Russ, and Harden. Ultimately Russ or Harden. Not much of a surprise so far. Leonard or Lebron at 3 for the regular season award made sense. I wouldn't have complained if they flip flopped them.

LeBron is still the best player in the league until he retires. MVP right now is just a consolation prize.

That makes no sense. Are you saying he is the most talented player right now? I think everyone would agree with you on that. Being most talented and winning MVP are not the same. You have to show up over 82. He gears up for his title runs. Not sure why him not being top 3 in a regular season award would bug you.

This is embarrassing. I never thought the Celtics would win the series, but hoped they could push it 6 or at least make it a competitive 5. I've spent a ton of time in the Garden, but have never seen anything like this. 

They just don't have the horses for a deeper run yet. They are very close though.
