Sexlexia...
It's getting harder and harder to believe anyone is even watching these games. I'm nearly certain they just look at the box-scores and hit the 'blame the FT' button.

Of course, what these stat-watchers are failing to mention some other fairly important numbers.

Rebounds? Det 178...52 offensive.
LA...152...38 offensive.

Also a good one that none of the conspiricy theorist amongst us seem to be mentioning is the LA/Minni series.
Why?....Well in that series:
LA had 186 trips to the line.....Minni had 127.
In all but ONE game in the 6 game series, LA had 10 or more FT's. :shrug:
Guess the ref's were much more switched on in that series.

Oh...and I didn't see much of the Detroit/Indi series....So I look up the stats.
Detroit held Indi to 33.7%, 27.5%, 34.7%, 45.7%, 32.9% and 36.4% shooting.

It is therefore is totally evident to me that Detroit got EXTREMELY LUCKY in that series that Indi shot poorly.

Good post although you cannot compare series. Other teams used HACK O SHAQ and that is why Lakers had so many free throws. Brown is smart and is guarding Shaq one on one and def. not using HACK O SHAQ! Plus I think Pistons are getting away with "some" not all like others are saying fouls. So please do not compare series because there is no comparison. I think the other series were far more entertaining and far better officiated. But that is only my opinion and I might be semi biased towards Lakers.

You are right...let's not compare series...because the Pacers are a MUCH BETTER team than the Lakers and to compare the two would be an insult to Pacers and their fans :)
