Hey - I'm just saying, on the list of issues that impact games, Star Treatment should be pretty low on it. I doubt it amounts to more than a foul or two difference, and averages less than a point a game. 99.9% of NBA games' outcomes are unaffected by it.

Oh, I'll most certainly take action over word in nearly every case, if you give the guy a chance to consider his position & a reasonable amount of time to come to a conclusion...

In other words, Pop's initial reaction to the ref (and we're assuming here that he's talking to the ref about that specific issue) personally is not very persuasive for me.

Granted, if he were to talk to the ref, in private, today, I'd consider that conversation to be more indicative of his true feelings than what he said publicly.

I pity the Pistons or Celtics.

I hate the Lakers,,,but they're the best team right now. They have that aura of poopy destiny.

That's ok Rocky, I got immortalized for posting "do they really even need to play the Super Bowl now? The Giants have zero chance."

I'm getting ripped off. Not getting any run for predicting that the Lakers would not win the title.

Because it was a blatant attempt at CYA.

There's no way in hell Utah wins the conference and goes back to the BCS this year. BYU is way too good.
