He might want to call Van Gundy REAL SOON!
I heard some things on the radio on the press conference about what Rasheed said. I don't know exactly what he said but he was hinting that refs are setting it up to go 7 games.

He's wrong. They're setting it up for Miami to win. They don't care if it takes 6 or 7. Sheesh. I'm really disappointed Sheed would get it so wrong.
I haven't heard/seen it myself. But I understand he used the F word a few times and called the officiating " ty" and said the refs were trying to make it go 7 games.
If that's all true, I believe he'll get suspended.
Yeah. that's what happened.
Why would he get suspended? All Van Gundy got was like a 200,000 fine.![]()
Artest went mad postal in Detroit and they actually thought about suspending him. He'll probably get a nice little fine and a couple bs fouls the next game.
I don't think he'll get suspended but I find it funny he's crying after a game in which he had like two points. What would be ironic is if the Pistons lost in six.
Would he be wrong about the refs then?
This meltdown might cause Detroit the series. He flat out sucked today and was complaining all the time to the refs.
I really, really, REALLY want this series to go 7. I don't care who wins.
Rasheed needs to know better but obviously, he doesn't.
In his defense, Shaq was getting some BS tonight compared to the stuff he didn't get away with on Tuesday. The whole Eastern Conference Final has been called, inconsistently, game to game. There is some truth to his rants.
But he is still an idiot.
It was a good game. Both teams played hard.
too much ing about the refs in this series by Detroit. They're the world champs and shouldn't let things like this get to them. Then again they do have 'Sheed on their team. He is an idiot.
LMFAO.
That's exactly what he should have been saying, both teams played hard.
what else is NEW?
after "slowing down" a little bit as a Piston last yr...
he is again on the top of having the most technicals this year.
sad because Rasheed is really a great player..offensively & defensively.
The calls early in the game were craptacular. I mean, just junk. They looked exactly like the "let's give the home/more popular team more of chance" when that sequence of offensive fouls were called on the Spurs in their Game 5. Detroit was getting some atrocious calls on them, and many in a row.
The difference is, the Spurs shrugged it off and kept playing. Detroit let it get under their skin and take them out of the game. They were already playing pretty lousy and they never recovered.
I wouldn't say the Spurs totally shrugged it off, they were simply the better team and no ammount of calls was going to keep them from winning.
But yes horrible calls in both series against Detroit and San Antonio, just pathetic at certain points...
I've been seeing it a lot, actually, at least since the Seattle series... or the Denver series, that abyssmal Game 3 when there were whistles on every possession. There was a point when the Spurs just started laughing at calls and shrugging their shoulders. Their at ude seems to be the right one: the refs in the league are at a low point right now and are easily swayed by both the home crowds and the league leadership and there's no sense in getting riled up about it. Take the extra lumps and go back at it.I wouldn't say the Spurs totally shrugged it off, they were simply the better team and no ammount of calls was going to keep them from winning.
It's worked extremely well so far. They're a level headed bunch.
Are you guys kidding? Last night's game was terribly called! Terribly one sided to Miami's favour. All that talk about ugly low scoring games? Tell me how are you going to score when refs takes flops as charges every single time? And don't get me started on how the refs constantly stopped the game for ticky tacky fouls to kill the flow of the game.
Like coach, like player.
Exactly, wade was gettin some favors too. There was one play that after a rebound snaq ran over another player, knocked the guy 8 feet, right in front of a ref and there was no call, that would have been his 3rd. There were some bull calls, once wade shot a pull up, no one was on him and magically there was a call.
Even the announcers were saying how det was getting jobbed. There were 2 more plays where 99.9% of the time refs don't call the foul and refs did anyways. 1 was wade was out of control went into the lane did a 180 then they called a phantom foul. 2 was there was a trap at midcourt and the ref bailed out the heat player.
Maybe not the reason the pistons lost but it was soooo obvious. Reminds me why the nba is not my favorite spectator sport.
I saw alot of that bull in game 3,4, and 5 against the suns.
Was it Salvator reffing the game?
I don't know, but I saw only like 5 minutes of that game and Wade got like 3 or 4 bull calls on his favor in those 5 minutes.
Wade gets way too many calls in his favor. I wonder how the SPurs will handle it if they end up playing against eachother. Bruce may end up getting fouled out or something...![]()
I am actally suprised at Rashweed, he had held his composure
pretty well as of late until he got to the ECF. I thought he had calmed down a little but his true colors come out in the end (ghetto). He could really wind up screwing his team.
