Did anybody else think the Bucks got robbed last night verses LA Lakers?

It brings back some painful memories of the 01 Easter Finals when the NBA stole the series from us in order to send the bigger market Philadelphia team to the finas. THe nba also screwed the kings the same year. Lord know they didnt want a Milwaukee vs Sacramento series. It just takes the fun and the competitiveness out of sports. I love the palyers in the nba but I hate the officials and david stern. Even Lakers fan's have to agree that Kobe walked and traveled and was still awarded an AND 1 call.....complete BS!

    I completely agree. The Bucks did get robbed. It's so unfair how Kobe Bryant can get with anything he wants to and no call will be made just because he's kobe. I wish the refs called a fair game. And kobe did in fact charge against andrew bogut.

    though i didnt see the game last night except for kobe's gamewinner, its a superstar's league. everyone knows that guys like lebron, kobe etc will always get the benefit of the doubt...especially towards the end.

    im as big a kings fan as there is out there and it sucks to this day that 2002 wcf w/ the lakers still lingers for me.

    the only thing i can hope for is that tyreke evans (brandon jennings for u being a bucks fan) can be a big superstar as well...so they'll be getting calls at the end of games as well.

    true, i do agree that that play was a charge, but like it was said in gametime, superstars get the benefit of these calls, wade, lebron, kobe, etc.. These players always gets the calls, nd about the 2001 playoffs, i didnt know about that situation with milwakee, nd the lakers earned that spot in 2001, 2002 was rele that suspicious one when the kings shouldve won dat series but didnt. but hey, these things happen all the time, just gotta move on, it happened in the 06 finals too, nothing can rele change dat..

    yo retardss..... go on youtube and search the bucks lakers ot..... the one that is 5 mins long... the first minute you clearly see what happened... it was a BLOCKING FOUL!!! bogut was not set, and he even tried to flop like a little p*ssy!! i'm a huge lakers/kobe fan and when i saw the game i thought it was a charge too but im not a professional ref, so i don't really know what was going on.. refs made a great call for the block.... the travel might be questionable.... but it was a foul on bogut no doubt... if he wouldve tried to block kobe instead of doing the pussyy move of flopping, then kobe woulda just had 2 freethrows and u woulda still had a chance to win.....

    Bogut missed a freethrow at the end of regulation. The end. Stop whining, the Bucks had every chance to win but couldn't do it.

    If the Bucs wouldn't have missed their free throws at the end of regulation and OT, they wouldn't have been in that position to begin with. The Bucs robbed themselves.
