Come on, even if you hate the Celtics or KG you can't tell with a straight face that wasn't a flagrant!

No surprise that you ignore the Hawks shooting twice as many free throws and the horrible foul call on Perkins where he knocked the ball out of bounds of Smith and instead of it being Celtics ball with Perkins having 2 fouls, Perkins has 3 and Smith hits 2 free throws. There was also a charge on Childress that was ruled a block on Pierce. The refs are hardly the reason the Hawks are losing.ImmortalD24 wrote:I knew the reffing was going to really favor the Celtics after Joe Johnson was called for his second on that Powe flop, no way the hawks pull off a win.

"I just think everybody needs to stop talking about it," Howard said. "There's more to life than free throws."

Rondo foulding Horford and the Travel call
Ref saying its Celts ball while players are still battling for it and Powe clearly touched it last
BS 4 and Zero loose ball bailout
BS offensive foul on Joe Johnson on the flop
This officiating has been atrocious but it's to be expected. Can't let the lowly Hawks beat this team with all of its prestige
