Come on Chip, this is a great series. OK, maybe not quite like the Orange Coast basketball games, Edison games or Pacer game when a well known center, now at Delta Global, ruled the Southern California Courts!!
But the series, though not well played offensively, and yet to come down to a last second win, all 3 games have gone down to the last minute. Matchups along with great and lousy performances by individual players make for an intriguing series.
As for game 4, it could go either way but I would take the Celts to cover the 7.5 point spread but Kobe to find someway to win. Buckeye Slags over/unders are Kobe 36, Pierce 23 and Powe 4.
Lakers/Celts over the Office any day of the week!

As for the allegations. I don't believe them. Although after refs gave game 5 to Sacramento, it evened out in game 6. Sacramento fans only remember game 6, Laker fans only remember game 5.
Thats why you play all season to get home court. Very important as human nature has refs favoring home team (not on purpose). Home team is more agressive thus tending to get more calls which makes it looks like the refs are biased. And the NBA is the most difficult game in sports to officiate

Buckeye Slag
