Gee whiz the officiating in that game tonight was awful, absolutely awful. If I didn't know any better, I'd said they were blantantly in favor of the Lakers the last 3 minutes of the 4th quarter then most of OT, then all of a sudden in the last 20 seconds they were suddenly pro-Wolves. The fouls Kobe Bryant gets are ridiculous. It's not the fact that he gets the fouls, it's the fact that there is 10 times more bumping going the other way that isn't called, at least Danny Ainge has the balls to call it out. I don't have a clue what game John Thompson was watching. I actually thought the strangest thing was the fact that they DIDN'T call a couple fouls in favor of the Lakers at the end of OT. I thought the shot Bryant put up should have been called a legitimate foul, and they didn't call it. Horrible, horrible officiating...really turns me off to even watching to watch this disaster...
