Although I am enjoying seeing the Laker players and Phil Jackson moan about the refs. Boohoo. They aren't down 2-0 because of the refs.

They were murdered in game 2 because of the officiating. Bennett Salvatore hasn't been kind to the Celtics but Joey Crawford has been equally bad for the Lakers. The Lakers got to the foul line more (and should have been more than they got) but missed a lot of them and saw their two starting forwards hit the bench with three foul with 11 minutes left in the first half.

Garnett's shot isn't falling tonight and Pierce looks a little slow. If not for Ray Allen and Rajon Rondo, they'd be getting blown out, even with the Lakers hitting only half of their free throws.
