It's no secret that NBA officiating is the worst out of all the major sports. I mentioned Pryzbilla being a flopper but Houston has a few of their own in Scola and Battier(borderline). I hate that the referees reward the flop. I think the difference in FTA is basically Yao getting calls on Oden and Pryzbilla. The Rockets do shoot a lot of jumpers, but they also take it to the rim(Wafer,Landry,Lowry) enough to get whistles. I think this series is headed back to Houston. Portland as a city will be crazy excited and I think they'll pull off a close one. I think we all agree, we’d like to see a better flow in the game.

Yao got called for ridiculous fouls that wasn't even his fault. Sure, when you're looking in a Blazers' fan perspective you don't see it that way...you see that everything seems to be correct. But your defenders have been overly aggressive in the previous 2 games and it should not be allowed in the NBA. Another reason Yao got just 1 foul is because he knew he hurt the team in the other games because of foul trouble. So he made the effort of not to repeat that again....no surprise there.
