Was it just me or did the Fakers get all the calls last night as usual. Shaq got away with a couple calls as usual but the Rockets were just too good last night. The Lakers are champions of nothing and last night proved it again. ------------------
the two assaults that shaq got away with: francis layup shandon layup were simply "Against the Law". i think that tattoo he has plays the jedi mind trick on the refs. ------------------ Mobley and Francis ...are not the two best players on the team. - Rockeem 11/2/2000
Both teams shot 23 free throws and both teams were called for 20 personal fouls. The "champ's respect" vs. "home cooking" seems to have cancelled each other out. ------------------
Didn't both teams have near to, or more turnovers than assists? ------------------ In the end there will be no judges...only witnesses to my greatness.
Hey, Shaq got an offensive call when he bowled over Dream...I thought the game was evenly officiated. DaDakota ------------------ If Mankind evolved from Monkeys and Apes, then why are there still Monkeys and apes?
Yeah thats true. I thought Shandon was really hurt because he was going full speed and Shaq pushed him from the side and he almost hit his head on one of those cameras. ------------------
i guarantee steve has a swollen left elbow today. did you notice that his elbow took the full brunt of that fall? and there was no call from the back referee. ------------------ Mobley and Francis ...are not the two best players on the team. - Rockeem 11/2/2000
I was at the game 2 rows up from the floor and thought the refs did a fairly decent job. The only call I saw that they missed badly was when Stevie was almost clothes-lined by Shaq. ------------------ Only in America....do we use the word 'politics' to describe the process so well: 'Poli' in Latin meaning 'many' and 'tics' meaning 'bloodsucking creatures'.
RocketsPimp I was there too and did you notice how loud the crowd was? It was only 14,000 but it seemed like a sellout.
Yes, it was a nice crowd. The gave Collier a pretty nice ovation when he fouled out. I was impressed with the level of crowd participation. ------------------ Only in America....do we use the word 'politics' to describe the process so well: 'Poli' in Latin meaning 'many' and 'tics' meaning 'bloodsucking creatures'.
COACH S,When not on the internet are you the former rocket gaurd and current announcer Calvin Murphy? ------------------ I'm not the type to eat it up but the type to hit it raw dog and seed it up.
I can attest to pimp being in the second row with sirhangover. so was it loud down there? I was losing my mind for sure.
I think the ref did a fairly decent job. Shaq got away with 3 sec violations and some tackles, but overall it was still better than usual. ------------------
I can vouch for COACH SAMPSON not being Calvin Murphy. In another post, he stated a preference for Hot Rod Hundley and the other clown doing the Jazz games over Calvin and Bill. I also thought the Faker$ had a few calls go their way but nothing out of the ordinary. ------------------ GATER
Damm,maybe he really is Stick ? that might explain his deep seated hatred for the fakers. ------------------
