Thats what I'm saying though, The Playoffs have been tainted since Amare/Diaw suspension but again it happened tonight exactly when the Spurs needed it to happen to clinch the game and probably the Finals it self (a game I'll probably skip anyways). I'm not saying the NBA is rigging these games if possible but seriously I don't know how many refs they have court but I know theres at least two and both didn't see the Foul? arn't they always supposed to have at least one looking at the ball handler? Its kind of fishy after everything else thats happened with the Spurs this year.
And I have to agree with Blade, the Spurs are a victim of the NBA being a water down version of what it was. It doesn't help the fact that there a weirdly annoying team, from the style of there play to guys like Manu and Bowen just being the type of player they are.
