That Jordan pic is sweet, the only difference between the two is MJ was covered... or at least Russell attempted to cover him!:D

You do realize that there would have been a foul on Brown if Kobe would have missed that shot. The refs were swallowing their whistle so that their whistle, which was intended to help the Lakers by calling the foul, did not actually hurt them. Kinda like when there is a Technical foul during a fast break, the refs let it go, and call it after the shot is made/missed...

Well, in game 3 or 4 (can't remember) Boston had like a 3 on 1 break, when the ref called a T on somebody (Odom maybe) and killed it. Should have been basket Boston. I was amazed by that.

tell me about it the officiating sucks

It only sucks because the officials are not calling any fouls in some quarters/halves and then calling tons of ticky tack fouls in other quarters/halves. It gets the players confused and not sure what they can get away with, and then T's get called because a player thinks he should be able to do something illegal because it wasn't called in previous quarters....

Overall horrible officiating IMO during this series

i agree if they are gonna cal it tight they better call it tight the whole game not just in stretches of the game, its making them lose credibility
