What's with the officiating tonight?!

Ok, this is NOT just sour grapes posting here tonight . . . although, I am bitterly disappointed that our Magic lost by one stupid point with yet another buzzer-beating dagger to the heart.

This time, the death blow was delivered by LeBron James, to put the Cavs over Orlando, 96-95 in Game 2 of their big Eastern Conference Championship series in Cleveland.

I'll get over it, though. The Magic did manage to split the two games up at the mistake by the lake, and will enjoy home court advantage here in The City Beautiful later this weekend.

But, what I'm having a difficult time getting over is the poor officiating we saw up in Cleveland tonight.

Sadly, we've become used to Mo Williams running his mouth with nothing to back it up. But, what's with him launching balls at Dwight Howard in the first quarter?

And, how many times did "King James" get away with traveling or charging?!?!

All that being said, it should give fans of the old blue and white a lot of hope. Even with all the cluelessness of the refs and the undeniable abilities of the league MVP, the Cavaliers only BARELY eked out a win on their home court.

Methinks there will be a very different story floating around this dryer come Sunday night . . .

GO MAGIC
