Geeze, here we go. Almost comical flops in front of refs and they simply get the call. Mugging other players in front of refs... no call or wrong call....
The NBA is well on record for admitting they allow refs to give star treatment to certain players and teams and again they do not disappoint. LaBra and his new team will have every opportunity to gain a 6-8 point advantage over other teams this season on approval from the NBA for marketing purposes.
This is why the NBA has been a joke for a long time. It's really the WWW of pro sports.
But, I also think it's what the fans want. As NBA ref Bernie Fryer stated... that the NBA head people made it clear when they told the refs it's not about making the right calls, it's about seeing to it certain players and teams have advantages to keep league interest up. It's not about wins or losses, it's about PR and marketing. THAT's what brings in the money that extends all the way down to the refs.
