I also hate the Spurs, so that had comical value too. So much for that home court advantage. |

I really don't think they should have blown the whistle. Was there contact and a foul? Yes. You can call it a makeup call for the previous possession when Fisher's shot hit the rim and should have reset the shot clock but didn't. That would have forced the Spurs to foul Bryant to stop the clock and put him on the line to ice the game.

It's a no win situation for Jazz fan; who do you root against? The team that has owned you (Spurs) or the team that is about to take over the WC?

The NBA is a joke. Even Jackson said this at the end of the first half. The refs manage the game, keep it close, give the win to the team that will get higher ratings in the next round.
Personally, I think it is unwatchable. Dale Hansen, here on local radio, said that if the Mavs have to look like the Pistons, to win a championship, he'd rather not win a championship. I agree. It's boring. 100 free throws a game. Questionable calls all over the place, etc. |

You have to think outside the box: It's not about who to root against. It's about the fact that the playoffs ended when the Jazz were eliminated.
