    Ha. Tommy Heinsohn says, "That's part of the game." Today's announcers would wet themselves with indignation and say "There's no place for that in the game."

    That's how the game should be played. Stern ruined the NBA and made the games boring. That's why those of us who watched a lot of teams in the 80s just cling to our home teams now.

    Thats awesome. Even the cameramen ran in to capture it. Now no one can go in without a fine.

    It's going to be exactly the opposite. Phantom fouls left and right, flops everywhere. Our players will be parked on the bench with foul trouble.

    We should start Barton, Meyers, Claver, CJ, and Watson.

    I see lots of phantom calls going against Portland early causing fouls trouble and the glimpse of the great white hype, then the refs will "even" things out after it's too late

    You know, there's something there. It would really confuse the hell out of HOU. I think Barton could do a little damage on the offensive end. And on defense, just have Meyers hack the hell out of Howard. Play it for the first 5 minutes or until we're down 10 - whichever comes first!
