Bias

The refs are beyond fixed. It’s the entire league. I just watched a poor excuse of a fair game 5. Anything but. The NBA wants their MVP in the finals. It is sad. The announcers are in agreement with this. I am watching the bias TNT broadcast, and they did not mention once that they missed a call on the Jazz. Boozer and Williams were hammered all night and we did not get one call. Odom goes to the basket and Boozer touches him, he touches him so lightly you couldn't see it with the naked eye. TNT had to slow it down and explain to the zombies at home how it was a foul. And Pau, do not get me started. Crying because he knows he pushed Okur at the end to get the game winning rebound. Wow. Thanks NBA for making everything happen the way you want it too. I hope the finals are the lowest rated in history, thanks David Stern

Come on now

I know you are frustrated as a Jazz fan, but this is kind of ridiculous. There were certainly some bad calls, but the NBA is a poorly officiated league. You are ascribing conspiracy theory to what could more easily be explained as subpar-quality referees on the floor.

And the Jazz win that game if Okur actually boxes out Gasol not once, but twice in the last two minutes of the game. That soft, pasty Spaniard shouldn’t be able to shove Kirilenko into the first row, much less Okur. Okur needed to fight his ass off for those last few rebounds, not give up his position in hopes of a foul call.

Yea, your right. Okur should not flop in the last minute of the game, just take the foul and move on. I was heated, i live in the east coast and i was up till two in the mourning and saw that. But the Odom foul there is no excuse for that.
