You do realize that you made my initial point. I said the NBA was the weaker sister, not necessarily becasue of bad referees, but because the league views "entertainment" over basketball. It does not "pay" to have the stars sit.

Well, I don't know whether I "made" your point.

I do, however, agree with your point, Goose. I personally don't like the direction the NBA has taken, and I don't think that you can blame the officials for that direction. Style seems to have prevailed over substance imo.

It's gonna be interesting though to see how far Stern does take this Van Gundy thing in the latest "Cuban whistle crisis".
