I was watching the basketball, on and off ... but then I came to DU and it seems like the speech I missed tonight was way sadder.

because I don't even follow basketball that closely anymore, but I kind of want Golden State to win. I won't be crying either way, though.

so many missed calls it was ridiculous. The W's got off to a slow start in the 1Q, but the game still didn't make sense. The refs just let LeBron get away with whatever. He taunted Steph at one point, but there was no call. He also has gotten away with handling and charging into various players the entire series, but has mostly gotten away with it. I was almost mad enough to throw my TV.

I'm not kidding. Not saying the game was fixed, but clearly they wanted to have a Game 7 which will make millions for the owners.

I reckon back to 2002 when the Kings were screwed in Game 6 against the Lakers and Dick Bavetta.
