You could be right...but as a Laker fan, I wasn't shocked, just disgusted that Steve Smith didn't get the call on his drive when they were down just 2 pts. That was huge, IMO. Of course, free speech doesn't exist in pro sports. rattle on the refs and you're fined and/or suspended...or you become a walking T-foul like rasheed!

>superstar players like Bird, Magic, Jordan, Shaq, Miller, and a handful of others are given the benefit of the doubt when it comes to fouls, walking, etc..< I don't think Patrick Ewing has ever dribbled in his entire NBA career. Unless you count that sweat that's always dribbling off his ugly chin. <g> I don't know if there's a conspiracy or not- but there does always seem to be at least one major TV market team in the finals. Now, Indiana finally makes it to the championships in Larry Legend's final year of coaching? Looks alot like Michael Jordan in his final year, eh? Go Pacers! -g-
