BULL****. He never touched Kobe on the three, never touched Pargo on the drive. THANK GOD the T'wolves won. Thank you Danny Ainge... the voice of reason: (on Wally's 'foul' of Pargo) "I'm sorry... that is NOT a foul. There was no contact! This is ridiculous!" Admittedley, Kobe drove at the end of OT, and they DIDN'T call a foul... (most amazing thing I've ever seen!). Refs had a shred of self-respect.
if they did call that foul on Kobe at the end, I see no reason why KG and Wally world should beat the living ish out of the refs.
i think that the game showed the mediocrity of the lakers, since, despite rigged officiating, they couldn't pull it off in four quarters plus an overtime period. on paper only two players on that roster aren't either goons or one-dimensional spot-shooters.
Did ya'll hear Charles after the game? He said something like "I know we're not supposed to take sides, but I found myself rooting for Minnesota. If the Lakers had won that game, it would have been a travesty. That's some of the worst officiating I've ever seen in my life." Props to Wally for keeping his composure after those bullsh*t phantom calls.
Sportscenter is a joke. Not a word of the bad officiating. Just amazement at Kobe's "4-pt" play. Ugh.
Yeah, the days when ESPN would critique the NBA are over. I think that was the real reasoning behind Stern signing the contract with them.
Wally didn't even touch Kobe....but nice shot by Kobe. Haha...too bad he missed a free throw. Good job TWolves!
