Nobody's talking about the Finals?

I'm just kind of surprised that nobody has commented at all on Game 1 of the NBA Finals. There were definitely some interesting moments from an officiating standpoint.

Kenyon Martin's putback/slam in the 2nd quarter that looked a whole lot like BI from where I was sitting.

Then back-to-back block/charge calls, each of which appeared to me to be wrong, both in the 2nd quarter within about a minute of each other.

The first was an offensive foul called against SA after the dribbler had faked two guys right out of their shorts. He then drove to the basket from the C's side of the court. The third defender came over to help, but his feet were definitely on the RA circle. The Lead official then called the offensive foul. First of all, it seemed like a bad call b/c of the RA consideration. And second of all, why did the Lead make the call in the first place?

Then on the other end of the floor, SA was called for a block, when it sure looked like the defender was in perfect position, outside the RA and took the contact right on the torso. Lead again called that foul, but at least it was in his primary.

Anyone have thoughts?
