Ron Artest's post game interview.

I'm not gonna go that far. The Rox lost last night cuz Kobe came out and imposed his will in the 1st quarter. But that still doesn't mean the officiating was good.

I tend to believe that nobody likes the officials. Players, coaches and fans. Yes, they miss calls on both sides. However, those cats get it right 95 percent of the time.

I watch NBA games these days and no player ever believes he has committed a foul or traveled or knocked the ball out of bounds. It gets annoying after a while. Just play the game.

Really????

I guess that's just good D, ain't that right?

Now these are some sorry arse pictures. Gasol was reaching for the ball and inadvertently hit Yao..Landry was driving to the hole and Odom has his hands in the air. He lost the ball and ran into Odom's elbow. Inadvertent hit..Sheesh

And that's all I'm saying. They miss calls all the time. The foul was clear on Artest. I guess they could have reviewed the tapes to give Kobe a foul in-game, but Artest screwed himself with his confrontation after the fact.

Artest knew what he was doing. He wanted to make a point and expected to get a tech.
