Officials have said before that Shaq is difficult to officiate because he is so much bigger and stronger than most post players. If they called him every time he displaced someome in the low post he would never make it out of the first quarter. The NBA knows this so they let him get away with a lot more in the post than most other post players.
In game one and game three, Shaq was just throwing guys around left and right in the post and not being called for anything. If the officials are going to let him do that, then they have to give the defense more lattitude when guarding him. I'm sorry but you can't let a guy get backed down continually in the post then you can't penalize him when he pushes back. Did Madsen push back too much, apparently not in Crawford's opinion which is the only one that matters. And besides, everyone knows that the NBA wants the Lakers to win.
