Isn't this the same board where some people complain about the pro game and the way it is officiated? If the pro game was called the way we call our game Shaq would shoot about 40 free throws a game. I know some would say he would foul out due to offensive fouls but the other center would foul out before it ever got to that point. Have you ever looked at what happens before he gets the ball? Do you remember in the finals against Philly when Mutombo was at a 45 degree angle leaning against him? These are still the best refs in the world IMHO. They have their game and they call it the way they call it. We have our game and we call it a different way. If you look at it from our perspective it would be skewed. These are the best players in the world and there isn't one defensive player in the league that could stop the 12th man on any NBA team if the game was called the way we call it. They are just too good for that. Jordan was on many all-defensive teams and he was one of the dirtiest players in the league on defense according to the way the game is officiated in college or high school. Shaq will get fined and the beat will go on.
