I do have to say though you are really paranoid about the refferring aren't you Mark? Keeping the stats the way you do and such. Rather odd if you ask me. Makes me wonder if you need to get a life.

If you agree do you also notice that our Mavericks are never in favor but always dealt the bad hand whither that be refs bad callings or poor team exposer (NBA promotions). I think its just sad and somebody needs to dig a little deep into this issue (cough er-rumm Mark Cuban cough:) Do it sometimes seem as if either the refs or the NBA Staff (commissioner in particular) have favor for a team.

I don't think that there are really un-biased ref's as it always seems the teams that have the stars seem to get away with a lot. I'll update again later once i'm out of school.

That's a tough one, because so many players have been doing it for so many years with nary a call. As I understand it, this occurs when a player drives to the basket, picks up his dribble and takes one large step. But then instead of taking the second step and elevating he lands on both feet and power-jumps off both feet for the shot. The problem is when that first step covers SO much ground (ahem, Kevin Garnett), it really makes this move A) very very effective and B) very very suspicious looking. For refs to start calling this now would render a lot of superstars' signature moves unusable. It will be interesting to see what happens... Is a jump-stop a travel?

I want to be on the Benefactor so bad I can literally taste it! I am unemployed! I got very far in the audition for the Benefactor......and then all of a sudden NOTHING! What is going on? Make an announcement about that! For just 5 minutes, put your precious basketball team on the back burner!

Come on guys. EVERY team feels that way, you cant go anywhere without someone saying "oh i think the refs are out to get duke" or someone else saying "oh i think the refs let duke get away with murder". The problem is EVERY call becomes magnified when its YOUR team. I doubt the Mavs get anymore or less calls against or for them than any other team,, and what ever the difference is im sure its small % points either way. .......And in regards to Mark getting a life, I think keeping the refs stats are revolutionary. Its a great idea and I hope the NBA catches on to the demand that we need some sort of system of keeping the refs accountable for their calls.

The buy is a billionaire has a wife and a kid and spends most of his time counting basketball reff statisticas... and needs you to defend him... If I have his billion I would be watching the Mavs games from Balli and have someone else manage the ref statistics.
