do you think Yao's sixth foul in overtime in game 4 was really a foul?

I don't think it was a foul. I don't really care if the Lakers or Rockets win. I just hope both teams get a fair chance and that the team that deserves to win, wins. Just curious what some of you guys think.

Problem with huge players like Yao, and Shaq is that there is always some sort of contact almost every time they touch, or even get near the ball. Was the 6th foul any more flagrant than the 1st? Who knows - I agree would like to see tonights game called fair and square, which may be wishful thinking.

the only difference between LA and HOU is playoff experience...The Rockets have went toe to toe with the big LA guns...Hou being the new kids in the playoffs just need to learn how to win playoff games....the series should be at worst tied at 2-2.

LA will not have this luxury next round

I think you could call a foul on any player, on any play. It was curious that he was whistled in OT, when the game was on the line. I must admit, over the years the refs let them play, somewhat, in the playoffs. Especially late 4Q or OT. Malone was having a monster game, and he was the player who drew the foul. Part of his heroic night. Must have minimized his elbows and low bridging. His time will come soon enough. Was the call game deciding? Probably not. Rockets are green, but well coached and never quit. Getting seasoned now. Maybe next season they win those swing games. They are right there now. Just as good as Lakers, quarter after quarter. Taking it's toll. Good teams do not leave the balance of the game in the zebra hands. No game 7's. Sweeps. Remind you of anyone...OF
