The Suns absolutely got screwed out of the playoffs. No question about it. It seems as though most of the bogus calls were from Eddie Rush, though. Maybe the Suns had two different officiating black lists going on at the same time. If that's what it takes to stop the PHX train, then that's respect. :)
It was bad all around, and I love the first call they showed, where they whistled the foul after the rest of the game had started down-court. I'm just impressed that D'Antoni didn't kill one of them.
I have to weigh in on this scandal as a whole.
I am SHOCKED that men's professional sports are governed and decided by money. It is shocking and appalling to me. The next thing you are going to say is that these athletic all-American heroes are not nice people and are only playing the game for money, not to be role models.
And then? Are the athletes going to become more well-known for their criminal records and drug/alcohol abuse then for their talent? Are the athletic clubs going to be rocked by scandal and bad management? Could the athletes be involved in not playing to their full potential to throw games?
I cannot believe any of this. It is a bad dream that has just shaken the sturdy and ethical foundation of our country.
Seeing a headline such as "NBA Officials Taking Bribes" is as shocking to me as seeing "Lindsay Lohan Busted for DUI Again" and "Britney Spears' Desparate Antics at OK! Mag Photo Shoot."
