And just in case you thought these were fake..

In case you're wondering why, Ainge made some comments regarding LeBron James talking about taking hard fouls and the referees not being consistent. This was Ainge's quote:
quote:

"I don’t think either one of those were flagrants, and I think the one — LeBron against Boozer — was flagrant, yes. I think the officials had it right…," Ainge said during a weekly radio-show appearance in Boston. "I think that it’s almost embarrassing that LeBron would complain about officiating."

Spoelstra's thoughts.

Ethan J. Skolnick ?@EthanJSkolnick 2m
Spoelstra: "I love direct GM to GM communication. I think it's awesome."



Reponse from Danny Ainge:

Response from Danny Ainge to Riley: "We're both right. LeBron should stop complaining and I should manage my own team." #celtics #heat


Of course, one can't help but remember Danny Ainge cornering a league official to complain about the officiating after Game 2 of the ECF.

Nothing like pointing out someone else for being embarrassing by embarrassing yourself even worse.

Pat Riley is an og. Any GM that drops an f-bomb in an official statement about another GM is in my "Most Awesome People Ever" list.

Oh no. It's an official statement from Pat Riley. Not only that, but apparently it's the first time Riley has said anything to the Heat media since the draft.

LOL at ainge and the celts and the bulls for still trying to play mind games with lebron as if they have a chance in the playoffs. Just bend over and take it your 4 or 5 game playoff loss

Pat Riley is one bad mofo. He's Irish but looks Italian and he's definitely "connected".
