Rondo's play WAS a clear flagrant foul and not being called as one likely cost the Bulls the series.

Dwight will be suspended.

^^truth...and the thing is had it been miller fouling rondo on the drive (instead of the other way around), it definitely would have been a flagrant 1.

whoa, but rondo got away with nothing:

i think the league is totally avoiding responsibility. if they admitted rondo's was a flagrant 1, it's admitting that chicago had a right to choose someone other than woozy brad miller to shoot the free throws. so it's like admitting they gave the game away to boston. but flagrant 1 won't be enough to suspend rondo for a game. they really screwed up on this one.

Should be a flagrant 1, I agree. Don't see any reason for a flagrant 2, though (which would also be a catastrophe for the Celts)

yeah, no way it's a 2.

no hate on rondo for the play...I don't think he was trying to hurt the guy or anything. Was just a bad, textbook-flagrant 1 foul and should have been treated as such.

Yeah...those statements were not necessarily related. I meant generally the Celtics are lucky, not just because of the officiating.

There is no excuse for not doubling Pierce...

But yeah the officiating was terrible in general...

yeah, the whole city of boston seems to have something going.

brady's tuck rule. spy-gate's evidence destroyed by NFL.

steroid investigation was done by a guy hired by the red sox and no boston player ever mentioned as suspects. beckett getting a free pass from trying to bean abreu in the head.

what else?
