What the F is up with this officiating? "yeah, you played all season with one set of rules, but now that it's the playoffs, the rules are completely different"

The call disparity in the center position in this series is just crazy.

I'm not taking anything away from Houston, and Portland is clearly not playing to their full potential, but these mickey mouse fouls they're calling on Oden and Prysbilla are complete BS. And Yao is practically planting roots in the paint, but never gets called for 3 seconds.

oden was bound to be called for fouls. He doesn't know how to control his size, which is why he's being called for the fouls. The rookie will learn in time.

Prysbilla on the other hand, is just plain clumsy =) I love looking at his face expressions after he's called for a foul...he's so lethargic

So you think this is a legit call: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-6j8JCajoMA ?


And again, I'm not blaming losing on the refs. We should be able to win despite the calls. It's just frustrating to watch.

After already setting a record for overtime games in a playoff series (3), the Bulls and Celtics added yet another overtime (a triple OT) tonight before the Bulls finally held on to squeak out a win in the 6th game.

markel...that game was SO intense. rose had a CLUTCH block at the end...not so clutch with the 2 free throws =)

What a series. 4 of the 6 games have gone into OT and 2 of those games were a triple and a double overtime game. They've now played 7 overtime periods in the 6 games of the series. Unbelievable.

I agree...the Celtics/Bulls series is epic. Whoever is going to those games is definitely getting their money's worth. :)
