We have your back, Phil.  After the Lakers lost Game 4 to the Nuggets on Monday, Lakers coach Phil Jackson had this to say: “Basketball is a game where the aggressor gets the advantage.  And tonight we didn’t know what a foul was and what wasn’t a foul. Start of the game, we got guys knocked around going to the basket, they said, ‘We’re going to let those things go.’ By the end of the ballgame, little fouls were being called all over the place.”

We think Phil went on to say, “And take Kobe for example.  He has only shot 53 free throws this series.  That’s right, think about it.  Only 53 free throws in 4 playoff games.   That’s barely over 13 per game.  The refs are killing us.”

Side note: apparently Phil Jackson can only win titles when he has two of the Top 50 players of all-time on his team.  Having a measly one of the Top 50 is basically unfair to him.
