[QUOTE="mike%20@%20work:755452"]There are a couple of things that piss me off about last night: 1. What the HELL was that play supposed to be when the Celts inbounded the ball with about 10 seconds left? It blows my mind to think that Doc Rivers actually drafted up a plan that involved eating up a ton of time to make a rushed 3 point shot to go for the win instead of the tie when making rushed perimeter shots is what got them in trouble in the first place. 2. I don't have the exact numbers in front of me, but the amount of points the Hawks have ended up with in this series from free throws is staggering. That's a big part of what's keeping them in this series. Take a look at the same time at how many of those are either borderline fouls, or totally bizarre fouls that are consistently going against the Celtics. The 6th foul called on Pierce was absurd. The refs are expected to allow more physical play in the post season. Which brings me to my next point. 3. After game 4, when the Hawks pushed the series to 2-2, the Atlanta Hawks organization sold hundreds of thousands of dollars in season ticket sales for next season. Couple that with the fact that this season marks a drastic turnaround in the popularity of the NBA. I would not be surprised at all if this questionable officiating is the result of the NBA trying to boost interest in the post season games by making this series closer. The Celtics are clearly the most dominant team in the league. People hate that, just ask the Patriots. I don't need to draw anybody a picture here, but you can see how a strategy like this would make a series like this a whole lot more interesting to its fanbase. 4. That last 3 that Joe Johnson hit, with Posey in his face, and the shot clock at 1.... I gotta give credit where it's due. That was nuts. [/QUOTE]
