What's sad about this whole thread is that the orignal poster, while perhaps not tactfully stated, really did have a valid point.
I actually counted 2-3 plays in the first half where I, based on the types of fouls that were being called, expected Oden to pick up a foul but he did not. Far less contact was called a foul against the Florida big men but Oden was permitted more contact. Why? I have no idea. I'll make no claim that there was anything sinister behind it.....it may have merely been due to the position the refs had....but Oden did get lucky to avoid a whistle a few times.
