This series was meant to go to 7 games so it wouldnt matter if the lakers would have been up 3-2 it still would have gone to a game 7. so realy the only games that counted were games 1 and 7 at Sacramento and the Lakers won both.
"That's all Adelman wants, is consistency out of this officiating crew."
I remember watching this game. I've never noticed the officials in a basketball game more than I noticed them here. They had complete control over the tempo of the game.
@TheBoondockSaint17 I haven't watched this clip since I made it, but I remember having to edit out a lot of the reffing just to get it under 11 mins. It is not as nearly as bad as Kings fans made it out to be, there are a few bad calls in the 4th for sure, but the main problem is the 26-9 disparity. However, if you go foul by foul, there are 3-4 bad calls. The rest were just cases of the Kings and Adelman thinking they should be allowed to foul and get away w/ it (they're whiners in general)
@TheBoondockSaint17 LA 40 Fts Sacramento 25.Divac,Pollard both fouled out.Shaq 4 fouls.Just listen to the commentary of Bill Walton,he was disgusted.Bob Knight hasnt attended another NBA game after this one,he was in attendance that game.All writers and basketball minds have said that it was rigged,jus read up on it.
@Zeke4TV You're funny. Let's look at the series overall, though (basketball-reference). Sacramento had 19 more FTAs in the series -- in Gm 3, they shot 20 more FTAs than the Lakers. Note that in Gm 6, the Lakers only had 15 more FTAs. In Gm 5, Shaq shot 1 free throw. Now there are some stats Kings fans don't want us to see.
Yes this game was rigged, but you know what, game 7 was not. The kings shot 16 out of 30 from the free line and everyone except for Bibby was to nervous to shoot a shot down the stretch. The N.B.A. needed this series to go 7 games, the kings should have sucked it up and won it in 7 games.
Hahaha I only remeber Scott polard from that gay ass hair

there's a huge myth about this game, people say they called a foul on Bibby when Kobe him in the face at the end but it was a NO CALL.

i guess im just not seeing the poor officiating from the highlights and being to young to remember having watched it, it just seems like a good game.

It wasn't rigged for LA, it was just poorly officiated. Watch the full game. The referees missed so many calls for both teams.
