Dropping the Ball(NBA CHRONICLES) PT.1

The NBA has taken another hit towards its integrity Tuesday night when a game deciding foul was not called at the end of game 4. The NBA has issued a statement stating that a foul "should" have been called. As a result the Defending NBA CHAMPION SPURS have gone down 3-1. I don't have to tell you how hard the task of winning 3 straight in professional basketball is. More than likely this will not happen and the Lakers will be representing the West this year in the championship.



How do you explain this to "Pop" and the Spurs. Do you say hey we know you had a shot to win a fifth championship, but we dropped the ball? We all know Phil Jackson Zen like view on the the issue. He would justify things by simply stating in 1999 when the Spurs won, I stated that there should be an asterisk next to that because of the shortened season, so life found a way to balance itself out. A further point, what if Spurs "do" comeback to win 3 straight? Now you almost gotta question how much the league would be involved.
