"Minor screw job"? - that non-call may have changed the series to 3-1 from 2-2.
Yep, a minor one - Spurs had ALL GAME to do something, and they never held the lead IIRC.

Spurs can cry about being screwed when Duncan and Parker get suspended from a playoff game, while the other team only loses a scrub like Turiaf.

That, IMO would be a major screw job, and whichever team gets that favorable call wouldn't have the right to complain about a single non-call in a playoff game the following year since the previous year's championship was handed to them on a golden platter....
