Orlando +7.5 at Cavs - Game 5

Apparently throwing elbows only gets you in trouble if it lands. I've lost a lot of respect for Howard since these playoffs started.

Also, it's about time they started blowing the whistle on Pietrus.

Howard swung the elbow.

probably one of the dirtiest players in the game. Throws an amazing amount of elbows, ones that aren't even caught on camera, mostly because he's mastered the art of swinging them with accuracy while making them look accidental. He also sets an amzing amount of illegal screens that go uncalled, and pushes off on ana mazing amount of rebounds which also go uncalled.

But whatever. I guess you just play through it....the entire Orlando team has an amazing knack at playing dirty defense and setting crazy amounts of moving screens that go unnoticed. Watch Rashard Lewis set a screem, its laughable as he sticks his knee in the defenders thigh.

I thought that basket was scored before Ron Jeremy got the technical. He was on the floor while Cleveland was on the break, but the 'T' wasn't called until after they scored. He shouldn't be allowed to jump on the floor and stop a fast break by the other team.

EDIT - I just rewatched on the DVR. That 3-pointer went through 2 seconds before the whistle blew for the technical.

The Cavs need to have that play reviewed and get credit for those 3 points. But they probably can't do it since they gave the Cavs the ball after the technical FT. Mike Brown and his staff should have questioned that and complained before the FT was attempted.
