I can’t believe they didn’t notice LeBron putting his face on PP’s hand and call the foul on him.
Like in the finals, this face-to-hand contact crippled Pierce, who needed emergency medical staff to help him to the lockerroom to get life-saving medical attention. He was then able to sprint out on the court and play one minute later…..
If this is the other way around, half the country would be complaining about how LBJ gets every call. Tired of Cleveland not getting respected by the refs.

On the upside of that view is that you know you are leading the pack when people are barking at your heels. It sucks that LeBron gets a raw deal from non-fans, but I see that as a result of his awesomeness. I mean, would you enjoy seeing your team get crushed by LeBron? Probably not. This stuff will happen no matter where he is.
Anyways, I would get angry, but the only way this stuff stops (or at least dminishes) is to win a Championship.
Where is Jay Z when you need him?
This is why I hate Boston……no other team in the country has more of a homecourt advantage with the refs.
