Refs awful
 

no shock there.

nice push in the back by Gasol. Would have been a foul on the other end.

Waaahhhh!

I rather enjoyed the refs.

And Kobe was basically a hero playing with a bad back.

Boozer was awful again.

Well, that sucked. Jazz just can't win in LA.. They had probably 8+ chances where they had the ball with the chance to take the lead and failed every time. That's amazing.

nba is going down on my list. I think the refs think they are just as important as the players.

the AK foul on Vuyadick was unbelievable, called from the other side of the court.

Stern is worse than vermin.

Amen, Mike. Plenty of home cooking tonight.

Did I mention how much I hate the Lakers?

Yeah, that call on AK when vuja chick kicked the ball out of bounds was pretty bad. Other than that, the refs weren't TOO bad.

I thought they were OK but for the same call, which was horrible.

Perspective I guess. The AK call was bad. Maybe not so bad, but it was called by a ref out of position to make the call. Nothing makes me more upset when the off ref makes the call and the ref on top of the play sucks on his whistle. But really I thought it was a decently called game. Wasn't much disparity I thought. I don't think it was nearly as uneven as you're making it out to seem Mike.

The Jazz foul a ton. They lead the league in fouls. I don't know why Jazz fans get up in arms when the refs blow the whistle on them. They should be used to it. If Okur and Boozer would move their feet it'd help.
