Joakim Noah Calls Heat “Hollywood As Hell.” After This LeBron Flop, We Can See Why.

by Glenn Davis | 9:49 am, May 27th, 2011

By now, you most likely know that the Miami Heat pulled off an amazing comeback last night to defeat the Chicago Bulls 83-80 and advance to the NBA Finals. LeBron James and Dwyane Wade led the way, each scoring eight points during the Heat’s 18-3 run to close the game, and combining for 49 overall. (Add in Chris Bosh’s 20, and the Big Three combined for 83 percent of the Heat’s points in the game that sent them to the NBA Finals. Nice going, Pat Riley.)

And after being beaten like that, a crushed Bulls team could only pay Miami grudging respect. Joakim Noah, for example, called the Heat “a hell of a team,” but also had another interesting description of the talented South Beachers:

Safe to say he won’t get in any trouble for saying that. Additionally, that line brought to mind one LeBron play in particular from last night…and it had nothing to do with his amazing late-game performance. Here it is:

Hollywood as hell indeed, right down to that little wink – and an impressive acting job to get the foul call. It’s one thing if James Harden sells that he’s been hurt by the much bigger Tyson Chandler, but when one of the most physically imposing players in the league fakes that a point guard did that kind of damage? Let’s just say we see why someone registered hollywoodashell.com already.

one of the worst officiated games I have ever seen in my life. I was at the game and crushed none the less. I really hope the NBA learns from this type of game and uses instant replay of questionable calls like in this game.

It seemed that once it looked like The Bulls were gonna win this game, ALL OF A SUDDEN, you get funny calls, that “phantom foul” and the should of been no call Tech on Taj Gibson! Oh well, can’t be bitter, this is what Stern envisioned, so now he gets it, except Dallas was too good to get bad calls against them to get the Lakers in!

Be happy that you’re a fan of the team that 99% of the country despises. I just thank my lucky stars that “LeQueen the Quitter” didn’t come to Chicago.
LeLosers

Stern got the matchup he wanted
The refs must have been told to favor the heat
D Rose got mugged every time he drove the lane
and HARDLY got a call
I hope the NBA goes bankruprt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And of course there was NO COLUSSION by Riley
and the Heat. Stern was SO DELIGHTED HE DIDN’T EVEN
CARE TO INVESTIGATE THEM~~~~~~~~~~~~~

All he cares about is FAG LOVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

bullshit if lebron was in chicago you would be kissing his a**
Ant

bulls had a 10 pt lead with a minute left no bad fouls were called in that span so dumb comment.
Ant

your just plain ignorant derrick rose didn’t drive the lane and when he did if he was fould he got the call , learn the rules of the game before you crticize if you initiate contact the defender has the right to defend unless there is forceful body contact or any contact of a player driving below the wrist..
