Did it ever occur to you that the best players get calls because they are the better players that know how to earn a call? For example when you shoot 30 times a game and you are going to the basket, it only makes sense that you are going to go to the line more. But the funny thing as Rich said, Kobe went to the line 1 time last night, but did not go the line at all in Game 3 and he scored 28 points as well.

Also if you look at most stats, players like Kobe foul other players more as well. But that is never talked about with the sports commentators that know little or nothing about officiating or what goes into it. If you listen to commentators, why did the Spurs not get the call at home? I thought the home team always got the breaks from the officials, right?

Peace
