For those who don't believe in the Stern bias and its effects, recent events should set you straight. Garnett grabbed a referee's arm, and Perkins stepped onto the court during an altercation. The rules clearly call for a one-game suspension for each of these violations.
But Stern wants the Celtics in the Finals, so his ruling is based on his pro-Celtics bias. He is clearly "fixing" things to give the Celtics an advantage. Irrefutable evidence. He's probably also responsible for the bias of the referees, such as Violet Palmer and her blatant pro-Celtic bias (we won every game she officiated during the 2007-2008 regular season, and only 80% without her -- see "The Curse of Violet Palmer" thread for a few more numbers).
Stern is obviously doing anything he can to twist the rules in favor of the Celtics, and the refs are part of the conspiracy. The numbers tell the story. The Stern conspiracy is real. Believe it.
