I haven't watched nba all year, so here's a question

do they normally let players get away with one handed holds when a guy starts to drive the lane. I always like the Celtics when I was a kid, but this Pierce guy is holding Lebron every time he gets the ball. Guess it's ok if they call it the same on each end, but he is mugging him. I got bored and turned the channel, so it may be worse on the other end.</p>

it's supposed to be a foul if you put your hands on a guy who is advancing the ball toward the basket but they don't call it consistently. They'll let you get away with a forearm on the guy a lot of times but a lot of times it's hard to gauge what's a foul and what's not, especially in a game of this magnitude. The refs don't wanna be seen as unduely influencing the outcome of the game.

that was a damn good game. Lebron dropping 44 and Pierce going for 40. I can't wait for tomorrow night's game.
