I've had enough!


First off, let's get one thing straight. Ken Mauer is a corrupt NBA official. He is a convicted felon who hates the Celtics. http://espn.go.com/nba/columns/hughes/1141856.html There is no doubt about that! In the first half of Game 5; Mauer, who looks like a rat, called a breakaway foul, a questionable 3 second violation, a flagrant 1 foul, and a delay of game warning for having a shirt untucked (with 2.2 seconds remaining in the half)...ALL against the Celtics. You think that I'm a homer? Well, let's go to the tape...Watch the whole clip.



Now, let's talk about Mike Breen. Yes, Mike Breen is the lead announcer for ABC/ESPN. But, do you know what NBA team he works for? He is also the announcer for the New York Knicks...Hmm...He agreed and was adament that PJ Brown's foul was a flagrant foul. Secondly, he and Jeff Van Gundy shot down Mark Jackson's comment about the Pistons playing "Rileyball". What is Rileyball? It is a method of coaching where a team constantly fouls the other team, with the idea that NBA officials will only call less than half of the fouls. As soon as Mark mentioned this, Van Gundy and Breen did the right thing (in David Stern's mind) and quashed any further discussion on this valid point.

How many times do I have to hear...Rick Hamilton knows all the tricks...Rick Hamilton is a crafty veteran. He constantly pulls jerseys, holds arms, flops, and when someone breathes on him too hard they get called for a foul. I hate Rick Hamilton!

I'm sick of Rondo lobbing soft passes to Pierce. He throws the ball 10 feet up in the air, giving the defense time to react. Throw the fuckin' ball!

Despite all this, the Celtics managed to finish the half on a 16-4 run and a 6 point lead! We'll see how the second half plays out. I'm sure Kenny and the other two officials are already on a conference call with Stern and Breen!

Sorry, I couldn't wait any longer to to post this...

First, let me compliment you on randomly throwing in the "he looks like a rat" comment. Well done sir! AND this is all information I was totally unaware of... interesting and typical. The NBA needs a good cleaning.
