    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (BCB @ Jun 19 2006, 08:13 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>The ref wouldn't have called timeout unless he signaled it which Howard did, thats why Howard looked like he sh*t his pants when he realized that he screwed up.</div>Maybe he was signaling asking his coach if they had a time out, or if he should take it? And the refs called it. When he was not even asking for it that's how I think it possibly was.

    If you signal a timeout it's a timeout....doesn't matter what the intent was.

    I think get rid of divisions so there is no more 6 seeds having home court advantage and crap like that. Also, I like reppin's idea with refs in post game interviews so you can get their take on the calls they made and stuff. I also think they should be more picky when deciding refs

I also think they should be more picky when deciding refs</div> Keep referee's off TV...most of the time they don't know what they called in a three hour game until they have seen tons of replys..etc...We don't need referee's becoming TV personalties after games, they are kept off TV by the league for a reason. The last thing the NBA needs is the media being critical of every call/referee after every game, it's not needed. The refs don't need to defend themselves, leave them alone.
