I really can't argue your point because I never saw any of last night's game. And since you've never lied to me before.....

I will say that as a general comment on Wilbon and most commentators.....it's easy as hell for me to cherry-pick comments from some of 'em that might agree with some of my own personal beliefs...but....it's also usually just as easy to find comments from the same or other commentators that are completely antithetical to the same or maybe some other of my beliefs. You gave a good example above. It goes back to the old "opinions are like azzholes" analogy, I guess, which is probably apt in this discussion. And ultimately, who's to say who's opinion is right or wrong?

All I can really say for sure is how I feel. And I personally don't have a clue what actually constitutes a foul in the NBA today.
