Gotta say that the refs are killing us with these no calls. I think Eddie Jordan needs to start getting some T's to make things change. If he is not having a heart attack in front of the refs, then they have no reason to call the game any differently.
I grew up in LA on the Lakers and have always known that Shaq is very tough to ref, but it is usually Shaq who is the one getting killed. Versus the Wiz, we are trying to make a conscious effort not to foul him, and he is the one being overly physical. They called a charge on Arenas (i think) as he went in to Shaq. The refs said that Shaq had position, but there was no way, because he had to shuffle his feet to the right and it wasn't even close to being set. :doh:
