Which is why I don't watch the NBA much any more, one team will build up a nice lead, then all of a sudden get called for ticky-tack fouls that are not being called on the other side of the floor, and bam, close game. I think the only time it doesn't work out that way is when one team is really hot and not missing anything, or the other team is so cold they can buy a basket. Which is why the NBA reminds me of the WWF/WWE.

As if the NHL play-offs are any better? I've never seen so many referees snacking on whistles when obvious calls are required to be made.

What is the point of a regular season when all you need to find is a hot goalie (i.e. those Disney characters with She-Gere) for the play-offs?

Throw in those ultra-conservative game plans and you've got Soccer on ice with all those shutouts being served up.

If the NBA is WWF, then the NHL is Roller Derby.
