"Celtics minority owner Jim Pallotta could be fined after he had a verbal confrontation with NBA commissioner David Stern following Game 3 of the Finals. Pallotta was not happy with the referees and told Stern the league should be embarrassed by how the games have been called in the Finals. Stern doesn't put up with team officials publicly ripping referees, so there's a very good chance that Pallotta will be fined (ESPN)."
Good! It is about fucking time. This league deserves to get ripped for the way the games have been called. I am not just saying the calls on the Celtics, but just the way the game are called all around. DP and I have written many posts about this, so I won't go on a huge rant here, but basically championships should be decided by players, not refs. The NBA has some of the best talent it has ever had, and yet the games are hard to watch with the way the refs are calling the game.
I am glad that this guy went off on Stern, and I am sure that he will get fined, but I think everyone can agree that the NBA needs to sit down at the end of the year and overhaul the way they call games.
