and ban referees from using Shariah officiating techniques during games.

While that was pretty funny, I don't think officials should be using Shariah officiating techniques either. Call me crazy, but if Ibaka blocks a Kobe layup and then the Laker bench comes onto the floor and preforms an honor killing the refs should call a techincal foul for that.

So true!

The NBA officiating isn't perfect and if anyone should be complaining about calls it definitely shouldn't be the Lakers--they usually get the benefit of the close calls.

Los Angeles' big cry-baby Lakers continue to intimidate the league and its officiating crew night after night. I'm glad that the officials are at least trying to get it right.
