Ugh, we may be seeing this game being lost right now.

Can't get anything going offensivly, partly cause the refs won't let them.

But defensely we're not doing the job in this half anyway.  Rondo is still being handled by Billups and now he's in foul trouble.

Game 5, Celts (home team) owned the third and Pistons came back in the 4th.  Let's hope the refs are guiding it in the same direction (given the atrocious third quarter officiating).  No technical on Wallace?

If I were a coach and I seriously thought the fix were in I'd just forfeit. I wouldn't risk injury to my players on a fixed game. I'm not watching. I'm listening on the radio and even I know by now it's ridiculous. This is like when they let the Lakers do whatever they wanted against the Kings

Bennett Salvatore should be fired on the spot.

No exaggeration, the Celtics would be winning this game if a different ref is in.

That was so unbelievably bad, when you are fixing a game, at least make it believable.

Can we stop all this "we're not winning tonight" crap... we're only down 6. We can win in spite of the refs, stop this crap already.

Completely speechless.  Call a travel that's fine, other than that, that might be the worst call of them all. 
"Take this down," said O'Neal. "My name is Shaquille O'Neal and Paul Pierce is the (expletive) truth. Quote me on that and don't take nothing out. I knew he could play, but I didn't know he could play like this. Paul Pierce is the truth."

This game is eerily similar to that one, when the refs simply would not allow the Kings to win. That game was fixed, and so is this one. I can no longer defend the NBA, when someone asks me if I believe in the league I will say no, this entire league is fraudulent.

Bennett Salvatore should lose his job on the spot for making that call.

THe refs tonight and David Stern should be ashamed for this complete sham of officiating that has spotted the Pistons at least 8 points right now.  It is absolutely gross.  That call on Pierce was atrocious, esp. since it is THE patented Billups move to initiated contact, and he gets that call vs. Rondo EVERY SINGLE TIME.

This is an absolute joke.  And David Stern wonders why the NBA has problems with fans trusting the games.  Sickening.
