			Exactly, Flagrants are simply a player intentionally trying to injure a player. That was hardly intentional. I would call the foul Pau pulled on Dwight Howard the other day a flagrant, but not this one.

			I'm pretty sure that all the referees in the NBA are biased against the thuggets   not an observation based on tonight's game which i didn't watch, but just in general |

			and Lou is a legit player. Always liked his game. Lopez on the other hand is garbage...i cant stand him. The only reason he got into the NBA is some GM prolly mixed him up with his brother and accidentally drafted him.

			Star players in the NBA get special treatment, that's a given.  With the calls themselves plus the arguing. I'm sure David Stern really doesn't want to see Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony, etc. fouled out or ejected from a TNT primetime game. The only "stars" that typically foul out are big men, now one could argue it's because they are more likely to foul, which could be true, but I think it's because they are less of a draw to the average fan.  Watching a big man go to work isn't as exciting as watching somebody break a defender off the dribble and take it to the rim.  That's why everyone rocks Air Jordans and not Air O'Neals.   I don't know if there are certain teams that get calls though. Part of me thinks that any team that is doing well will typically have a big star/draw ratings. Even if it's in a shitty market where people don't watch/go to the games like in Miami, they still have a big star with Dwayne Wade who is "interesting" to the common fan. At the same time though there are obviously "big" match-up's like Celtics/Lakers, Cavs/Lakers that are really going to generate a lot of interest. |

			After listening to the 30 for 30 podcast with Dan Klores, I'm about to get back into the Knicks.  I think it's time.

			Celtics crushed in the 4th quarter today against Cavs.  Pretty sure the window has closed on the Celtics winning a championship, at least they got one.

			I dunno, 56% shooting isn't that bad. The defense kinda fell apart for like 3 mins toward the end there though. I've watched every Laker game this year and I've seen uglier victories. This was basically a shoot-out.
