  3. Jack Cunningham from Vancouver, Canada writes: It will be New Orleans vs Lakers in the Western Conf. Finals. Having said that, imagine if Bargs starts to play like Okur and the more I see AK47, the more I hope Moon will start playing like him, especially not settling on that jump shot.

    The one on the sideline late in the in gaem where AK played him perfectly, for instance. AK was shuffling his feet back with perfect position, Kobe directly in front of him, and Kobe shoved him with his forearm to get position. If anything it was an offensive foul, at best it could have been a no call, but it was grossly unfair as a blocking call against Kirilenko. Same with Fisher about two plays later, he was pushing off and got rewarded for it.

    It's like the refs decide in advance who is faster and who deserves the calls instead of watching the play. NBA gets more like WWE Wrestling every year.
