Wow, officials are allowing Howard to take a lot of extra steps.

nooo, not the nba officials....

Howard needs to dramatically improve his post game for the next season. Right now, all you have to do is crowd him with height in the post to take away his game. I am surprise that his post game still hasn't come around yet.

I'm rooting for Orlando and I almost cringe when I see that they are trying to feed Howard in the post. Most of the times bad things happen when they get it in to him... or so it seems.

LOL, Hedo has been pushing off all series. The only thing he should question is why they decide to call it a foul now but Hedo fouls constantly to get his shot off. If he doesn't get doesn't get by anyone. Howard is a walking non-foul or turnover machine. BTW, Jeff has loss a lot of creditibility. You can't say let them play basketball on one end and then say the Lakers shouldn't complain about being call for fouls called on them on the other end.

2 terrible calls for kobe earlier, though.

especially the 100% phantom foul where he fell and had his shot blocked.

you can tell his footwork is there, though, and i feel that this is crucial to developing a solid post game. he's still raw, skill wise, but the foundation is there for an above average post game. he's also 23, younger than lebron, and so ridiculously athletic that maybe his athleticism has been a crutch and impeded his technical development. still, this is alright, given his youth, potential, and demeanor demeanor i am sure that he will take care of all the loose ends in his game.

This is his 5th year in the league, right? Every now and then he looks like he has finally figured things out... then he looks like he is fresh out of HS.

I think all anyone wants is a fair game. If you guard Kobe or are near him you are called for a foul. Pietrus was playing him well and fouled out on what should have been no calls. This is the finals you can't do that.

I agree that's why officials should called Howard for moving his pivot foot but they seldom do. They don't normally call him for going over the back for rebounds either. It works itself out.

Right there, Hedo grabs Kobe's arm on the initial drive but the officials didn't call it.

On the drive Hedo's arm extended his arm and made contact with Bryant. Any other time that is a foul but they wouldn't call that in the final secs. I wouldn't expect them to. Although they did it for Lebron.

Gasol hit the net after the ball hit the backboard on that last play- what is the rule on that?
