DeShawn Stevenson: LeBron and Wade Are ‘Great Actors’


According to Stevenson, the Miami Heat’s dynamic duo spends far too much time complaining to the refs, which DeShawn can appreciate: “The drama that Heat players Dwyane Wade and LeBron James use when it comes to making fouls look more egregious than they really are is starting to wear on the Mavericks. As Stevenson said Monday, if you touch the Heat’s stars, ‘They’re great, great actors and they sell it.’ … ‘Coach said it before the series we have a chance to push the ball like we like because [Wade] complains to the ref a lot,’ Stevenson said. ‘We’ve got to take advantage of that. They tend to do that and we’ve got to take full advantage of that … He does it all the time. He did it like seven times [Sunday].’ Wade declined to comment when asked to respond, saying he would ‘talk about that after the series.’”

    Dirk is the biggest actor in the Finals. Anytime he doesn’t make a shot he flops or wail his arms around and gets a foul call. The referees have been favoring Dallas since they’ve been there. Its really ridiculous. Three game straight the same thing happens. Each quarter the heat get in foul trouble so by about the 4 or 5 minute mark any time there is a foul Dallas is going to the foul line. The Heat have to get practically tackled to get a foul called.

    If anyone cannot see how poor the officiating has been in the finals then you are a blind fool. If you want to call bogus fouls then call it even both ways. Don’t let plays happen like Lebron getting foul twice on a jump shot with a not call, but Dirk will miss a shot and conveniently when the Heat get the rebound a foul is call against them. Pretty suspicious to me.
