    Sorry, ref's call stunk. The 'T' was for Cat's reaction which merited a 'T'. The flagrant should have been erased from Shaq but not the zenster's 'T'.

    PS can the fans give 'T's to refs 'for cause'???

    Yes, I think I did see some lakers fan moaning about the "L" & saying it should be a "W"

    The flagrant should be rescinded (but so are many other calls). The tech shouldn't be rescinded because Jackson "earned" it by complaining. It had nothing to do with the flagrant's correctness.

    Shaq should be fined for his moronic comment about the refs' not making a lot of money. :mad: If they fined Mark Cuban so many times for disrespecting the officials, why don't they have some backbone to fine Shaq for his comment which is clearly insulting to the league officials.

    And yet another opportunity for Shaq to display his idiocy.

    O'Neal said after the game, "A whole bunch of people who paid a lot of money had to see a game that was decided by someone who doesn't make a lot of money. That's unfortunate.''

    :rolleyes:

    so, by rescinding the Parasite's technical, the league is basically saying, "it's okay to go ballistic and argue calls if you think they're really bad."

    good message to send to the league.

    Ballistic? A little hyperbole there...

    Come on now, basically a bad call was made, Phil got up and argued and he got T'd very very quick.

    Just because it goes against the Rox doesn't mean it's wrong.

    I know...this is starting to look like the Lakers' WCF win over the Kings last year.
