This is good news. We want to steal game 4. The league is against us for game 3 - as well as Vegas, ESPN and the refs..

Shocking, isn't it?  100% of the fan base called this one.

This means Allen can get head butted in the stomach and knocked into the stands and get a technical foul for it.

I honestly miss the days when it was irrelevant who was reffing the game..A fan should not have to think about the refs before an NBA finals game, it's pretty disgusting.

God help us ... well, at least LA will be happy, and if we win, (which I'm confident about), the "blame the officials" excuse will be pretty weak, (though I'm sure they'll use it just the same). That said, when the odds are against us, that's when we play the best! Go Celtics! (I think it may be time for that lonely sacrifice on the hill!)  ;)

I blame the media.

I remember a time when the media was suppose to be unbiased and impartial to the outcome but after listening to the several sports stations on XM radio to and fro work the past couple of days every one of them is up in arms over LA's "lack of respect from the officials"

You would think these news outlets would just simply report the news and what is happening and not be picking sides and trying to change the outcome!

I think it safe to say that we should expect a one sided game tonight.  So I already told myself not to get upset.  I think the League wants the Lakers to win 1 game and that game has to be tonight.  If the Lakers win tonight ABC will have one more weekend game to help their ratings. So the Cs will get an L tonight and win the next two games and those of us who live in and around Boston will be at Government Center next Tuesday for the rally.  

p.s. I watch the game again last night and did anyone else notice how during the game they said next week games 3,4 and 5 will be in LA and then they had games 6 and 7 if necessary?  Should game 5 be an "if necessary" game? Seeing how the Cs are 2-0?

Lakers were 9-1 with Salvatore reffing. Ironically that one loss was us!

Wow. I knew it was coming but this is just sad all the same. Stern is basically saying he wants LA to win. But hey we did win our last game Bennett reffed.

I was wondering why the line was so high for tonight's game.  I got my answer.

I like Joey Crawford, though.  He does not always make every call by the book, but he certainly has the cojones to stand up to a home crowd-- or to a star player who thinks he's entitled to every call.

Joey Crawford...  he's the one who gifted the Lakers Game 4 in San Antonio, right? 

Where the NBA admitted the officials blew the most important call of the game?
