    I think the Celtics were the recipient of a bad call by the refs. I turned the game on to see Boston hit the net and the refs said it hit the rim. From the replay I saw...NOT!

    Why are professional athletes so good yet the refs not so much?

    Because the refs have to earn their extra money on the side...dont believe it hit the rim either plus the way they didnt even really take the time to review it especially a play that was so important.

    Rockets got bombed by the Lakers last night, not pretty at all. Rockets down by almost 40 pts. at one time.

    When a series goes this way, it has been setup by the NBA to sell.

    the officials should be held to the same scrutiny the players are. They should have to go to the press conference and explain why they did what they did. And not get rushed out of the building and out of town. Also, just like any other professional sports job, if they screw up royally, they should be fined and possibly suspended. I think the NFL got it right with Ed Hochuli. Im tired of the pimp David Stern protecting his crooked officials.

    I might not understand how the Lakers look so inconsistent but last night was something they needed to pull together if they want to beat the Nugs. THe Nuggets look how I expected the Lakers to come playoff time and the Lakers have been sporadic and downright awful at times.

    Common sense tells me that it should be the Nuggets and Cavs in the Finals but if the Lakers found the switch they usually have in the playoffs then who knows.
