Holy crap Duds!!!!!

Also, Frye is playing like a scared little girl. I have not felt someone was this useless in a playoff series since the Doris Diaw.

Seriously, the NBA can't find better refs than this? Maybe they just don't want to and these guys are actually good at what they are being paid for....

I think it even hit Odom before Barbosa touched down. Oh well, those aren't the calls that kill me.

everytime the lakeshow gets a foul, they complain.

There is data that points to the conclusion that teams who complain more get more calls. Conversely, those who complain less get less calls comparatively. Case and point, Adrian Dantley and the Denver Nuggets this postseason. Dantley rarely speaks to officials, let alone complains calls. The result, Denver received a disproportionately meager amount of foul calls. It is a matter of the squeaky wheel gets the grease. People here need to stop complaining about the Lakers complaining. Smart teams do it. It may suck but so does flopping. Bottomline, it's going to continue and it's scientifically supported good strategy.

Agreed. I ran it back.....BS call....Barbs was not out of bounds nor do he put his foot down before getting rid of the ball.

That's true. The refs (probably unwittingly) change their calls to avoid hearing a coach bitch at them. That's why the good coaches are always in the refs' ears.

Guys as good as the bench is playing the Lakers are on pace to score 125 points. There is zero chance we win that way.
