JVG tells it like it is.

3 technicals already called, perkins ejected, and numerous other ticky-tack fouls in BOS-ORL game 5

if im a boston fan im burning sheet down.

that perkins call was REDICUKLOUSLY bad.

when mike effing breen, a ref apologist, says "that's bad officiating" you know something's afoot.

Perkins hit the limit and is out for game 6(or game 1 of the NBAF) as well.

Wow. No way should a ref's ego be that big. People pay to see the payers play. Not for the refs to dictate games with horrible discretion.

If you've read Tim Donaghy's book, both of these series' have gone according to what he outlines being a typical series where one team is clearly better than the other.

And another BS technical on Rondo

Hey Stern, maybe instead of fining people hundreds of thousands of dollars for simply saying the'd love to have LeBron on their team if he wants to come, how about you do something about your out of control referees

I wish they'd release the exact words/phrase used that causes each tech.

Regardless, I bet Perkins gets his T back and he's allowed to play G6.

Exactly what I was thinking. Everybody worries so much about the game 6 and game 7's in the series and the ref jobs, but really where these hack job, fishy ref jobs happen are in the games 4 & 5 where the powers that be really need the series to go to 6 or 7 and get that extra money but the series is already 3-0, 3-1 so they come in and these type of things happen.

No, Crawford called the Rondo Tech even though Rondo was trying to talk to another ref.

Celtics could easily lose this series. Injuries piling up, Magic seemed to finally figure something out.

What started out as 2 looking duds of a series turned into 2 pretty good ones overnight.

How does Donaghy's book account for the 3 sweeps in the conference semi-finals and the elimination of LeBron James?

Should have rescinded both. The first technical was a worse call than the second.

According to Donaghy the Magic need to "dust off their golf clubs"

He's got a Facebook & there are many sites following his picks.

So, for what it's worth

Not that much of a shock, really. They made the right call and everyone knows it.

my post was dripping with sarcasm, Mass...

especially with my post earlier in the thread saying that I bet it would be rescinded.

hth.

this is ridiculous. The ebbs and flows by the refs from game to game. Boston, who wasn't allowed to touch anyone for 2 games is just bowling people over, elbowing, grabbing, holding, etc....all in the name of "great defense and physical play."

I realize different refs call games differently, but this is the struggle I have with the NBA, especially in the playoffs.

Donaghy looks to be right again.

The NBA needed a long series not a 4 game sweep. Once they got that, time to make sure the Boston media market punches their ticket
