At what point does the NBA's loyalty switch back to the US and not in China? The only thing i can figure out with how this series is being called, is that it is more important for Stern to have China watching in the second round, then to have an honest and fair assesment of these two talented teams. That was one of our worst games of the year as far as consitency, and for the refs to decide what line up we (nate) will have to use is crap; cause Nate is an open book to refs and other coaches, even the Mikes know exactly when a player is coming in and for who. It really is giving me the same feeling in my stomach as when I first found out that wrestling is not real... that stung for a while, and then I tried to go back to it. It was just never the same and now I actually view those folks that watch it as delusional. Is this what the NBA is coming to? Maybe a bit of a knee slap reaction, but is it really?

            How do we save our game from it's one major flaw, the refs not allowing it to be real? I think this could be accomplished with a video ref who interprets every call from a private high tech room where he/she is fed a couple of feeds/ angles and through the modern development of an ear piece confirms or deny's the call in a matter of moments. This wouldnt be required for all fouls, but if there is any question than get it right. Or am I just retarded?
