So the Bulls lost to the Celtics. =( It was a good series, but there was a lot of controversy in this series of non-calls and such. I really question Ben Gordon's pull up 3 late in the 4th when the Bulls were only down 3-4 pts. From this series I can see there is clear favourism from Stern towards the Celtics, which is not surprising. So as from the way I see it Rondo can get away with any right now. So the hit on Brad Miller in the face without going for the ball is just a regular foul. He throws Heinrich into the scores table and follows up with a small elbow and only gets a flagrant 1. You might think that I am just a HUGE hater of the Celtics and making excuse. Although I don't like the Celtics at all, compare these incidents to things that have happened in the past playoffs. Remember the Suns and Spurs incident where Horry hip-checked Nash into the scores table. Amare took a couple of steps from the bench onto the floor and did NOTHING and got a game for that which cost the Suns their championship run. Compare that to what Rondo did. Hit a guy in the face & throws a guy into the scores table. You be the judge. If that little thing Amare did cost the Suns their playoff run, what Rondo did should've cost the Celtics their playoff run. If that was ANYONE else it would've been an ejection + suspension for 1 game. As much as I love watching the NBA, it's becoming more of a joke. Stern really needs to turn this around and have the same expectations for players regardless of where they play or their status.
Rant over!
