There are dirty plays and there are dirty plays. That kind will fire up the Lakers to win this series.
Go Lakers! 4th quarter is Kobe time! |
Yup, He did Trip him and should have been called for it.
Areza threw an Elbow on him the next time down to even it out.
I never did see the hard push in the back, and am surprised it was a Flagrant 1, after the fact. But it must have been.
Also, Bynum may be in trouble to then, he threw an Elbow in Melo's back in the third, no call, and then the "flagrant" foul on Anderson.
I know he did not intend to hit him hard, but his Elbow did hit anderson in the face, so, is that not a Flagrant?
Overall, poor officiating again. The last three calls on Walton where lame calls!!!
Then two lame ones on Melo, and the Tech??? Hell, many players try to keep the guy from continuing.
I just wish they would call games consistent! It would be more fun!
