"He was smacking Howard's arm and finally he was called for an offensive foul," Jackson said of Garnett. "That's not our team. We don't go out there and smack people around."

If the Lakers play like the contemptible punks you guys evidently want them to, they'll probably get away with it too.
And by the way, in the plays in question, KG hacked at a guy who was fouling him. So of course he got called for it. Naturally, Jackson is cheering that kind of referee bias on.
The biggest surprise to Celtics fans in the playoffs so far is that the refs have not been CONSISTENTLY biased against them. Most notably, the second half the Cleveland series was called fairly (not always accurately, of course, but the errors were more or less evenly apportioned), as was the first part of the Orlando series.

Who did Howard send to the Hostpital?
I saw his elbow come down and give Baby bell ring.
I saw Daniels dribble into Gortats body and fall to the ground.
I missed the other one though.

It is setting good aggressive moving picks, elbowing your position on the block, fighting through screens, boxing out, faking injuries and not allowing easy lay ups. Of course most Western Conference fans do not really grasp this because the games they are watching most frequently are relatively soft.
