Carrying over from the Zone. Many on there have mentioned the officiating. I thought it was pretty bad myself. Especially the amount getting T'ed up. What do you guys think?

I wonder how long a high-light film of plays where L James shoots and misses and no foul is called would be.

They are the reason I have not been watching the games any more than I have. I get angry at the obvious bias and then turn to watch something more enjoyable.

That T called on Howard was outrageous. No way, no how. I love LeBron's game but the refs were calling a foul on anyone who came near him.

By the way, Howard's response was truly professional, all the way. He simply dominated the game in O.T.

I hope the NBA reviews this and reverses the decision.

The NBA should get refs from another countries league, that way their is no bias.

They use different rules internationally. In the end I highly doubt we'd end up with fewer blown calls that way...

The NBA has reviewed the technical called on Dwight Howard and has rescinded the call. All's well that ends well. It still begs the question of why it was called in the first place.

The solution to this promlem is clear and simple. They need to pony up more money so they can hire something better than the CAA refs they are using! I mean, I know the econ. sucks, but come on!
