Damn if kobe is really injured the Lakers are gonna be a tough out in the playoffs. It'll force them to go through the bigs, which is a no brainer.
Ok, I only followed this game by refreshing the box score in the 4th quarter. Did the Warriors intentionally foul Dwight Howard a bunch? How in the hell did the Lakers attempt 50 free throws?! I can't remember the last time any team attempted that many in a single game.
How can the NBA just consistently do this so blatantly? It's too obvious for it not to be discussed on a national scale.
It's still grossly overstated, but if there was ever an example of the reffing dictating the outcome of a game, tonight was that example. 50 free throws shouldn't ever happen in any game unless there's maybe 3 OT periods.
