That's it. What can we say? Everyone thinks it about their team, but the league very obviously doesn't want us to win. Every game against the Mavs is the same - we kick their butts, then the refs start making DUMB foul calls, Jason Terry notices that MavsBailoutMode == TRUE and goes into "Oh i can shoot whatever i want now and we'll get enough possessions back from any bad shots via offensive fouls" mode, Yao has to sit on the bench, whoever our other star is has to sit on the bench, ALWAYS IN THE SECOND HALF, no calls go Yao's way, our bench players get overpowered by the Mavs starters. It's a dead-set pattern.

I swear, I shot my TV the finger for a solid 15 minutes after Lionel Hollins used his super-deluxe swim move on Yao. Yao didn't move, Hollins flopped in the middle of the move, and it's a 4th or 5th on Yao, who promptly went to the bench.

Artest had a guy sealed on his left, he rotated his right, DID NOT MOVE his left, the guy fell down. 5th on Artest. Total BFS

If it was one game, I could understand it maybe. It's been a series. It's been a crucial season-ending game. It's never one that doesn't matter, always the ones that do. The refs go nuts, our team loses all rhythm, the Mavs charge and don't stop, it's insane. I always said that the only way the 2005 series happens is from orchestration.

More of the same.
For all the spots there are to moan about the Rockets, from watching the game it just doesn't look to me like it's their doing.
David Stern is a buttface and his mother is ugly.

(the game last night did not leave moofs happy)

Never seens moofs go off like this.. Must have really been bad.

I try hard not to get too excited in any direction over one game. A distinct pattern, on the other hand, particularly one that shows up in critical games...

When moofs ain't happy, ain't nobody happy.

As soon as I saw Yao pick up those first 2 quick fouls, I knew the refs were in Mavs bailout mode. But regardless of the reffing, we still have the same problem of freezing out Yao at times and having the most selfish ball hogging in all the league AKA Brooks and Artest.

Yeah it sucks, but we're just gonna have to deal with it. Fortunately I don't think Portland will get the same treatment, unless Stern wants Brandon Roy to be the next Dwyane Wade...
