NBA has its own set of 'rules'.... Traveling, 3 seconds, and lane violations are not whistled 80 percent of the time. Nothing more than @#$%^&* handball.....

I was at the game last night, and the calls were so bad, the crowd went nuts.

I think they are trying to keep it a bit cleaner, (its supposed to be a non-contact sport). But some of the calls last night were just WRONG. They kicked arse in the last quarter anyway, it was all good.

Things done at the last possible minute are done with the greatest possible information. Procrastination is, therefore, the most efficient means of doing things.

I used to agree with that but it's changed a little. There are of course players in the league that give it a bad name but I don't think the average player in the NBA is quite as thugish as they were a couple years ago. I think the game is getting better too but the officiating needs to catch up.
