I didn't see the play but it couldn't have been any worse than what Rondo did either time. This certainly doesn't help the NBA fend off the conspircay theorists.</p> <p>Why the NBA continues this charade is beyond me, but it's getting pretty stupid. &nbsp;Why don't they just come out and say who they want in the finals. &nbsp;The lack of consistency when it comes to applying the rules is staggering. &nbsp;The rules are only used when it's most convenient.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><a href="http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=4137556"></a></p> <p><a href="http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=4137556" target="_blank">http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=4137556</a></p> <p><br /></p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
