No need to pick a fight with the refs tonight (or ever). Now they're reviewing the play that should go to the Clippers, anyway.
I was saying the same thing watching the game. His basket put us up by one and he is yelling and glaring at the refs. A T would have been horrible and could have cost us the game. And looking at the replay he was barely slapped, if at all. In order to be effective campaigning with the referees you have to know when to complain and when to let it go. Blake is starting to get into Kobe territory, where every shot should have been a foul and he'll give the refs dirty looks. He should be better than this.
Isn't this why we brought Paul Pierce in, to help the maturity of the team? You can clearly see it in the team we played, the Wolves rally around Garnett, even in a season where he averages 3 points a game.
