ESPN.com - NBA - Recap - Lakers at Jazz

ESPN.com - NBA - Recap - Lakers at Jazz: "George got a technical with 4:24 remaining in the third quarter for complaining too much about a backhand to his face by Utah's Keith McLeod. No foul was called."

And we wonder why Kobe is saying what he's saying. Kobe gets elbowed and they call the foul on him. George gets slapped and it's a 'no call'. Until referees stop with their predetermined whistle blowing and actually make calls based on what happened instead of what they anticipate happening, expect players to a) get more physical, and b) become more abusive. Still don't know why ex-players aren't used as referees.....it's not like the current referees don't have their favorites...
