How many fouls a game would Oden average if he played for New York or Los Angeles?

    So who do the officials report to? Who fines and disciplines them for night after night of blown calls and all star treatment and home court advantage?

    If players can be fined refs can too!

    Ya know the refs in pro wrastling are just about as accountable!

    Why would anyone flame you for pointing out the obvious?

    Remember when Jake O'Donald admitted to fucking Drexler over in games just because he didn't like him? I seem to recall he "retired" soon after that.

    All of the small market teams get this treatment to some degree. Just ask the Kings. Perhaps Stern just doesn't like the Northwest. He certainly didn't do shit to help Seattle.

    Oden would be getting more fouls in New York because he'd be playing more. As Da Rizzle was saying, rookies are always called for fouls excessively and that's especially the case with big men. Part of it is their inexperience and part of it is refs teaching the rooks how to play in the NBA.

    There is nothing wrong with how the refs are treating Oden.
