Re: you're least favorite part of the league/game? Suns weren't doing well during the playoffs, you're right. There were some plays where the only one trying to rebound was Shawn Marion. But they had been doing well, till KT. But this year... oh boy!

Re: you're least favorite part of the league/game? God I can't stand you guys god it's like you're saying that Dwyane and LeBron get fouls based on who they are and not on pure athleticism come on guys that is stupid Stern doesn't care about money he is all about the game that is just stupid to think that any players are favored over any other players come on you guys are dumb I mean seriously it's like you think that is even possible? I mean it is certainly not coincidence that Wade got the most free throws ever in NBA history even over Jerry West no that's not coincidence he is just the best free throw getter ever that's the way the NBA works man it's based on how good you are at getting to the basket and even if people don't touch you it's a foul because black people buy your jerseys trust me I swear Wade is better than Jerry West the guy who the NBA logo is modeled after it has nothing to do with how the officials ref the game it's just pure athleticism!

Re: you're least favorite part of the league/game? -When refs dont call travels-76ers blowing a lead-Celtics in general
Re: you're least favorite part of the league/game? I hate the inconsistency from the refs, and like celticballa said, this is turning into a "sissy league".
Re: you're least favorite part of the league/game? players not using thier talent!!! Kwame or rashard (rebounding)
Re: you're least favorite part of the league/game? 1. How wing players can score at will with the new rules 2. The three-point line 3. Annoying and idiotic fans who bi*ch about the refereeing
Re: you're least favorite part of the league/game? Bitchin at the refs, why? Because if any of you have played in organized basketball, bitching at the refs isn't tolerated, but in the NBA for some reason it's completely legit. I can't count how many times Antoine Walker has put on the 3 year-old whiny face and cried to the ref about a bad call.Other than that I like the style of basketball today, it's really entertaining and I like how the game has transitioned into a really athletic sport. Of course it was always an athletic sport, but with the high flyers and taller players, the game has required much more from the athletes who compete.

I hate how travels are not called often during a game.I hate how the "and 1" is way overused in the NBA. If you get foulled and make the shot, it is an "and 1." Even if the foul happend really on the floor. I am sick of that.I am sick of the carrying/palming rule that is not getting called when it should.I can't stand the feeling of how the NBA is starting to turn into more of a show than the game of basketball..Maybe this last one is just me, but I can't help feeling that.</div> :g: Agree 100 %, plus i hate it when the refs is deciding the outcome of the game, by calling too many soft fouls during the game especially in the 4th quarter.!!!
Re: you're least favorite part of the league/game? The worst part of the nba is the makeup calls :no1:
Re: you're least favorite part of the league/game? Superstar treatment is the main thing they need to fix. Otherwise I am pretty pleased with how the NBA is ran. I mean what Stern has done aren't easy decisions. I mean give the guy some credit. He is holding this league together. Even though there are people that could probably would do a better job.

Re: you're least favorite part of the league/game? How to officials NEVER call traveling, even when it's so obvious.
