Here I go again

First half free throw attempts: Denver 29, Celtics 9. Doc Rivers, who was upset for some strange reason gets thrown out before halftime. In the beginning of the 2nd half the refs call several quick fouls on Denver in an obvious attempt to even things out.

Then there was this little bit of comedy. A Denver player tries to save the ball, but he's clearly out of bounds before releasing the ball to his teammate. The ball is passed around and a shot's taken. As the shot is taken, the ref blows the whistle. Apparently, the ref's brain caught up with his eyes as he claims that the Denver player was out of bounds five seconds ago. So, because Denver was out of bounds, the shot doesn't count and, you guessed it, Denver gets the ball.

Why do I keep watching the NBA?

Anthony reminded me of Antoine Walker. Has much better skills, but his shot selection and shooting percentage is not good. He needs some good coaching. Does Warrick have any NBA potential? He seems to struggle against bigger players like Craig Smith.
