Will he get suspended?

Oh, not Dwight. Hence he’s receiving the preferential star treatment that he is saying he doesn’t get…

Does the Mob control the NBA Officials Union?

What a tyrant!!

Players have to play with lopsided officiating and when they make comments about it they get fined!!?

You can’t structure the NBA with officials that aren’t unbiased thus making the “sport” of the game unfair and not expect competitive athletes to not complain.

Or maybe you can… how old is Stern again?
When will we get a new commish, when he dies?

SIGH

Howard is 100% correct about the officials in his series

I’m not Magic fan, and not one of Howard either. But, he was lambasted with terrible calls.

At least

the refs let the correct person shoot the free throws.

We should give the refs credit for that since the bar is pretty low nowadays.

we can still win........

The bad thing is

this is what we have to look forward to once Oden returns to the lineup. He is even more physical than Howard and doesn’t play on a big Market team like L.A. or Boston. I remember Shaq getting away with bloody murder when the L*kers were winning all of those championships. We can only hope that Oden is a big enough name to get some respect from Stern and the officials.

Shaq is still getting away with craaaazy stuff

They were calling fouls on Miller and Noah for breathing on the Diesel. It was ridiculous. I actually felt bad for them, and I’ve never cared for Miller or Noah.
