As a fan of neither team I watched the Cavs/Magic game last night purely because well there was nothing else on. Basically I just sat there and could not believe the bogus reffing in the game. Cavs hacking like crazy and called for zilch. Meanwhile ticky tacky calls on especially Howard. I was thinking A --another ref scandal or B man they really want the poster boy to win a championship.
The lo and behold despite being down 16 pts largely in part of having to sit Howard on the bench half the game and with their players being hacked at will they still come roaring back. They passed the ball much quicker to avoid the hack attack and starting draining three's. Meanwhile the Cavs who really had zilch going for them other than James slowed right down.
I do very much like seeing the bogus nonsense being overcome. Literally in one sequence they called Howard for putting his shoulder into a guy on an offensive move and the ball came down the court and James did exactly the same with no call. The NBA at it's worse.
When the refs at least toned down the crap it was a pretty entertaining game.
