I can't see how anyone can be complaining about the officiating during last night's game seeing how it had nothing to do with who won and who lost that game. The Celtics were listless and out of synch. They made dumb turnover after dumb turnover and they didn't have the defensive intensity a team needs to win on the road during another teams opening night.

Violet Palmer is a very mediocre ref on her best night's but last night the Celtics laid over and died missing open looks, allowing open looks and handing the Pacers extra possessions at will. She had nothing to do with the outcome. Let's complain about her when she really does cost us a game or at least nearly costs us one.

i disagree. i can hate the officiating crew and still acknowledge the boys played like crap and wouldn't have won anyway.

One is not mutually exclusive. :D

You're a man of many talents Crownsy.  Please don't tell me you can walk and chew gum at the same time, or I'll be so impressed I just won't know what to do. ;)
Yup

yeah they really played like crap.. but i really think the refs stunk. when i aired out my frustration to my friend(a very avid spurs fan) he told me that the calls were really terrible. i was surprised but he said he watched the game(he stil cant believe theyre 0-2 now)
