Not that this is a surprise...

Or, you know, holding the refs ACCOUNTABLE for **** up so they think twice about doing it again...

Naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, too logical!

Well if the refs and their overseers were separated from Stern and Stu Jackson then I think it could and would improve...

Lebron and Wade get more calls than anyone else. But the Celtics (just like the old Pistons) do a lot of grabbing on defense, which remains uncalled and Paul Pierce does get calls.

I agree on the D but not on Paul...he has consistently NOT gotten calls his entire career...which is fine, I don't care, but I want everyone treated the same way, not just Kobe and LeBron and Wade...

Has anyone played either NBA 2K9 or NBA Live 09? Because I'd read that at least in NBA 2K9 there's a programming glitch that disallows foul calls for only Paul Pierce. Is that true? I also have read from a few Google searches that there's a rumor that surfaced a few weeks after the release of NBA 2K9 in Japan that it isn't a glitch at all. Supposedly, one of the game's chief developers of Visual Concepts is a Los Angeles Lakers fan. Word has it that he wasn't pleased that "his team" lost in the NBA Finals to the Boston Celtics last season. It was said that he was particularly irked by Pierce for whatever the reasons. Anyways, the rumor goes that it was meant as a joke and presumed that no one would notice it in game play. Stop. Wouldn't a Celtic fan choose the Celtics and notice the programming glitch right off? If this is true, that's messed up. Can someone who owns or has played NBA 2K9 please confirm this? I'm curious now.

bonsai, I have no idea either way but if I had to guess I'd say it's probably true!

That's HILARIOUS, if true. What a bitch that programmer is! Only way even the fake Lakers can beat the fake Celtics.

Hahahaha!

But it would be a national day of crisis and a federal investigation would be launched had the programming "glitch" been against Kobe, Wade, or LeBron...
