How was it a foul on Turiaf (against Aldridge) but not a foul on STAT (by Camby). Camby actually fouled him twice, and contact impacted play.... while Turiaf's contact didn't impact anything.

Our star player drives, gets stiff-armed by Camby who alters his path (foul #1) and then raises hand and slaps it down (foul #2). Fouled twice.

Playing ball since a kid... 9 times out of 10 when you reach in the whistle blows.

Oh well. So glad Stern has a rookie ref at MSG tonight reffing his 1st game.

PATHETIC.

POR did nothing to win this. Refs handed them those final points. Disgrace.

This is why NBA = Wrestling. Totally fixed.

BTW we lost that game due to the free throws that we missed not cause of the refs!

I beg to differ. If Turiaf isn't called for a foul, by Camby is... Knicks win the game.

Missed free throws didn't help... But normally a team gets the call when their star player drives into the paint and a defender stiff-arms him and alters his path.

Still have no explanation why refs gave POR the lead b/c Aldridge shoved Turiaf?

Most NBA games are decided with whistles. Some that are blown and some that aren't.

This is why NBA is a joke.

The game should have never gotten to that had the Knicks made their foul shots.

Why was Turiaf in the game with about 5 minutes to go?

Why didn't D'antoni go with his best foul shooters when he knew that his team was struggling from the line throughout the entire game?

Why did D'antoni take out Bill Walker when he was the hottest shooter on the court?

Good teams usually put other teams away when they have late 4th quarter leads.

What separates the Knicks from good teams is their inability to close out games.

Missing foul shots, allowing your opponent to get easy baskets, taking out players that are carrying the team offensively and allowing your players to take terrible shots late in the 4th quarter are all results of bad coaching.
