[Ball Don't lie] Behind the Boxscore / So much for Tlong's reff theory

[sook]

There was a lot not to like about this game. Bavetta's crew continued to let defenses get away with rough, foul-laden play under the guise of "jostling for position," and coupled with Houston's continued refusal to understand that it boasts a 7-6 guy with skills in the low post, this completely took Yao Ming out of the game. Sure, he missed a few turnaround jumpers, but you try hitting them while getting a two-armed shove in the back as you leave your feet. Kind of helps to deny the whole "squaring your shoulders"-thing. I hate this. If Yao did that to Joel Przybilla on the other end, the Houston center would have fouled out by halftime. I don't blame Joel for anything, it's his job to see what he can get away with, but I wish the post play was cleaned up.

Apart from this i thought it was alright. The 1st qrtr the rockets got away with 2 flops but other than that it was fine with the exception of what this article is talking about.



What i find most ironic is Tlong thinks we pay the reffs
