Wow, it's kind of funny how people want to focus on 1 play -- the last one. The play before Fisher ball clearly hit the rim, and should've reset the clock with 5 seconds left. Or how about the Duncan travel. Or how about the blatant Duncan charge called a block. Or how about the' fact that Kobe took 29 shots and 0 fts. That's right 0. Obviously the league did everything in their power to extend the series. S.a was clearly kept in this game by the offiiciating. At one point it was 26 fts for S.A and 11 for L.A. Witthout the corrupt offiiciating, Lakers win this game by 15 pts. Lakers are just too dominant for the old Spurs. Kobe should've had 40 tonight if he the refs weren't screwing L.A.

Doesn;t matter, Lakers still going to win the championship because Kobe is by far the best player in the league, and the Lakers own the Spurs. Deal with it, cry baby Spurs.

Let's also not forget that Barry traveled prior to the contact so no foul should have been called and the shot should have been waved off.

The Spurs lost this game when Joey Crawford was named an official.
A smart guy like you might even be able to figure out the last time the Spurs won with Joey Crawford on the floor.

Look people.. ALL of professional sports is a business. And any business wants their best product to shine. If officials in ANY sport called it "by the book" none of use would be interested because there would be no flow to any of the games. Just about every time down the floor any one of us could say, "Hey that was a foul/travel/violation" of some sort.. so if you're gonna cry about officiating, don't watch the games... Secondly, the Refs are human and they will miss some calls, they also don't want to 'affect' the outcome, so sometimes they just swallow the whistle and let the continuity of the game continue.. Trust me, if these refs called every foul, there would be no flow to the game. Just sit back and take it in for what it is, Entertainment.. Besides, I would much rather watch Kobe glide to the rim than watch him shoot free throws all night.. I would much rather watch Duncan dunk that shoot free throws.. and I would much rather watch the players play the game than stand at the FT line all night.. how boring would that be?

Funny how the Spurs got the majority of calls last night when was the last time Kobe had 0 ft in a game. I do not think Joey had as much to do with the Spurs losing. It was more the Spurs did not play well and the Lakers did.

Or how about the "push off" call on Farmar in the 2nd where Bowen went flying 20 feet down the court as if someone hurled him.  Or how about Tony Parker not being able to shoot one single shot without falling to the floor...seriously watch him play and let me know if he ever accomplishes it.  Or how about Manu flailing and contorting his body around every time someone comes within 3 feet of him so he can draw a foul.

Seriously the Spurs sicken me the more and more I watch them.  They're turning basketball into an utter dramafest of acting and pouting for the whistle.  By no means am I a Lakers fan, but i can't bear to watch this "alternative" brand of bball the spurs are creating.

In my honest opinion I would HATE to be a ref in a spurs game.  It'd be constant guessing on whether they are faking or not.

You forgot to mention Tony Parker's favorite act... whiping at his eye after each drive to the basket and then looking at his hand as if it's full of blood and then staring at the ref as if to say where is the foul call. Seriously, the Spurs act is worn out and just old.
