    Funny article. I'll admit the Lakers got some home cooking calls last night they would never get in Denver. The 6th foul on Nene was a terrible call, it should have been an offensive foul on Gasol, a travel on Gasol for falling, or a no call. Nene beat Gasol to the spot and Gasol clearly pushed off.

    The stats overwhelmingly favor Denver though in regards to getting calls. I'm not sure what they have to complain about after shooting 49 free throws in Game 4. I expect them to be very aggressive attacking the rim in Game 6 to earn the edge in foul opportunities again. The question is whether or not the Lakers will attack the basket hard like they did last night. Lakers need to establish Bynum early again and get him going against Nene.

    The FT distribution was pretty fair in Game 5, I didn't see Linas bitch about anything when his team got 49 free throws in game 4 and another flagrant foul wasn't called. It just doesn't make any sense, and sounds much more offensive than whatever Phil said.

    :lol: How the fuck are they going to bitch about refs after that debacle they call game 4?

    Shut the fuck up, Denver. It is about time there is a fairly reffed game. I thought it was even throughout. They established the contact limit from the start and ran with it through the game. They didn't change it like they did in the last 4 minutes of game 4.

    Denver guys must be as dumb as they look huh?

    The FT distribution was alright. 36-30 is NOT a gaping hole. Granted there were a some calls that were arguable, such as the Gasol call that was supposed to be Offensive and also that time where he wacked Nene. Other than that, it was already fine as far as I can remember.

    $50,000 only??? any team would gladly pay that for a playoff win. they could EASILY earn that back on ticket sales from one section of the arena alone.
