REally really hard foul on rudy by viluneave caused both teams to erupt and some techs to go out. Since then rudys shot a ton of foul shots becuase they KEEP shoving him in the back again and again in the final minute.
That was all on the refs for letting Detroit get away with mugging us for the first 10 minutes of the half. What a joke. Hamilton is holding Rudy on EVERY single play because he can't keep up with him. EVERY play.
Short version: Portland has big lead at half. Detroit comes storming back in 3rd. A few physical plays. Rudy drives to the hoop, Charlie V grabs him spins him around and throws him down (maybe not that dramatic, but you get the idea). Juwan goes over to restrain Charlie V who flips out and starts calling for WWIII. Both teams get very tense. Now the refs are calling heavy breathing and the Pistons appear intent on pushing Rudy in the back 4-500 times a game.
Did you see the slo-mo replay? He put one hand on his upper arm. charlie V put his hand on Juwan's neck. You don't confront someone putting your hand on their arm.
I think if Webster can hit a shot, it'll be a big mental block for him. He had such an awesome 1st half/2nd quarter, he needs another stretch of awesome play to help us hopefully win the game.
