ever put on the uniform and played the game?

By that disconnected logic, only former Presidents can criticize the White House, only former Senators can criticize the Senate, etc., etc...

I've been watching NBA basketball since I was old enough to walk, and I've played my fair share of organized sports. There isn't a doubt in my mind that Game 6 was determined by crooked officials.

Here we go again. Ok. I'm going to give you a chance to answer what no Queen's fan has yet had to guts to answer.

What do you think the officiating was like in Game 5?! Or was that conveniently erased for your memory banks? That game was the biggest travesty in the history of sports. I think what happened in Game 6 is that the refs finally called fouls a foul.

Here's a sample of just the last 11.8 seconds: Do you think:

1. allowing Webber to hit the ball out of bounds and then give it to the Kings;

2. allowing Webber to knock Fisher on the ground during a moving screen to free Bibby for his final shot; and

3. allowing Jackson to undress Kobe and hold his arm, preventing him from driving and disrupting his shot

was enough to win Game 5 for the Kings?

How about the one foul shot Shaq had the entire game,even though he made 9 total dunks with people hanging all over him, and 17 shots total for the game inside the key?

"crooked officials?" and what do you have to say about game four where the Kings went to the charity stripe THIRTY- FIVE TIMES compared to 15 times for the Lakers...you sound like a sore loser. The only thing crooked is your logic or maybe that tin foil hat on your head. Face reality your Kings "choked" and they couldn't put the Lakers away on their own home court with home court advantage. Would you like some cheese with your whine? ROFLMAO
