Posting on, or reading, Flamefans is in all likelihood at the bottom of my priority list when driving, grocery shopping, or while enjoying a beefy crunch burrito (highly recommended if you have not tried it and I don't even like "Mexican" food) and a baja mountain dew.
People troll you all the time for the hell of it
Difference is I don't come on a board and whine and moan like a little girl who got called a bad name by the neighborhood bully when someone trolls me though. I like it when I get trolled, keeps things entertaining.

They list him with 258 field goal attempts. When you add up the field goal attempts breakdown by range, it only adds up to 250 field goal attempts. It lists him with 132 made field goals, add up the range breakdown and it's 130. Apparently he attempted eight shots that weren't located anywhere on the basketball court! Meanwhile, the NBA officially lists him as being 129-251, Hoopdata lists him as 132-258. Hoopdata has made up seven shots Haslem never attempted!

He did take over in the 3rd when things were slipping away from the Heat. Which of course led to Stephenson going crazy and the Pacers lose. I like where Indy is at as an organization. Substitute Danny Granger for Stephenson and they win this series. Add a solid ball handler and they've got a legit shot, if not this year, then next.
