It is only half time of game one between the Miami Heat and
the New York Knicks--and I have never seen a more poorly officiated game! If I
didn't know any better, I'd say the referees officiating this game have an
agenda. Lebron James has repeatedly fallen, flopped, and flailed all over the
court and each time it has been called a foul. As a basketball fan, I am tired
of the refs coddling superstars; these men are athletes and in better physical
condition than 90% of the human population, yet they are treated like teenage
girls with brittle bone disease. Why? Because they are so grossly overpaid! One
of these athletes getting hurt can literally bankrupt a team and the NBA simply
will not allow it. I can almost guarantee there is a directive instructing
referees to protect big name players so, if you are a run of the mill guy on an
NBA team, try not to blow on Lebron with too much force, he will flop like a
ten dollar whore on Motel 6 mattress and you'll be lucky not to get fined.
I'm entirely disgusted and it makes me want to forego
watching the entire playoffs....
