I think the fan was just pointing out the fact that the officiating has sucked in the finals and mostly in the favor of the Spurs. Nobody thinks its a conspiracy for the Spurs to win. He was just making a funny.

I'm so glad the Pistons got a commanding victory. S.A. looked so lost in the fourth, it was priceless. That fourth quarter they look as bad if not worse than Detroit did all of game two. I was astounded. There were something like 4 or 5 Detroit steals in a minute and a half.
Now as far as officiating goes. Its horrible for sure. I was realy starting to wonder if there was a bias, I was taking a hard look and realy trying to not be bias myself. It realy just looked as if the refs were out to get them. I hate trying to pass blame off, and was getting realy pissed how easily Detroit were losing there composer over this. Game two though SA shot something like 35/36 FT to Detroits 13/14, and Detroit out shot SA by 20 (figures not accurate,but are close). That just doesn't happen in the NBA. Than I saw this stat in the paper, I am practicly convinced here is a clip from the article:
Who's the biased ref?
June 14, 2005
"There's a simple statistic. We're 1-7 with one referee, and we're 11-1 with the rest." â?? LARRY BROWN
This time, the Pistons' coach blasted a ref. But which one?
On Monday, Brown blamed part of the Pistons' lack of composure on an unnamed official.
He didn't identify this official.
But if he really feels that way, maybe he should have identified two officials.
Here's the Pistons' playoff record under two refs:
Referee
Pistons' record
Ron Garretson
0-4
Dan Crawford
1-3
Neither
11-1
Note: Garretson and Crawford have not worked a Pistons playoff game together.

is a pretty absolute statement. There are people that think this is a conspiracy, so Corbett was wrong.
Ghey much?

THAT was the Detroit Pistons I am used to seeing. No, they didn't play that way 99% of the time. It is the way they played down the stretch in the playoffs last year. They play best with a chip on their shoulder and I have no problem with it. They are an emotional team and show it on the court. I have no problem wtih emotion, nor with Rasheed's daily technical foul. It comes with the package.
They did to SA what SA did to them in game 2. Outplayed them in just about every facet of the game but don't think SA isn't going to come out swinging next game. If the Pistons can play like that again tomorrow, the series is going 7 games.

ok, apparently i need to clarify. what do you think of the correlation between those two officials and the w-l record of the pistons?

I think it's a conspiracy by those two refs to prevent the Pistons from winning.
Last I checked, there were three refs at each game. I could be wrong though.
