    I am not interested in unscientific analysis. I don't care what you've noticed with your eyes, fans are selfish and I really doubt their objectivity. I support various rivals that have defeated my team in vital situations, and I don't like to make excuses.

    Of course you're biased, why should I accept your wild accusations? Notice how I'd just like to know what weird FT deviations you've noticed, etc., instead you go on some mini-rant about how obviously right you are. All I care about are the numbers, and if you can't provide that for me you're just another conspiracy theorist.

    Sorry but there is little surprising about a Prime Shaq getting as many calls as he did. Especially with the intentional fouling he has to deal with. His average against Portland was right in line with his other averages against other teams. Maybe a bit more research on your part wouldn't hurt.

    Why does the NBA want LeBron in the Finals? The 2007 Finals (Cleveland/San Antonio) were the worst rated Finals in the last 23 years. Less than 10 million people watched.

    The Spurs seem to rank lower in tv ratings. Cleveland and LA are always headline games for the league.

    LA vs New Jersey didn't get great ratings either, it depends on the opponent as well.
