"Milwaukee Sentinel" excitedly headlines its front page the next day with "Two Games to Go!" covering the second battle of the Bucks-Mavericks finals.
And indeed, the manner in which the Bucks won seemed fair and square.
The home-standing Bucks shot only two more free throws than the Mavericks.
However, whether or not there is bias in officiating is often a subjective matter.
For instance, if the people of Dallas feel that you, the referee, have screwed them over tonight, then you have indeed screwed them over.
And of course, the related media will provide some "evidence."
The Mavericks shot fewer than 20 three-pointers last night, whereas the Bucks shot more than 40. How could your free throws still outnumber ours by two?
How on earth did a scrawny bag of bones like Kevin Martin get 10 free throws?
Conclusion: Whistle Power hasn't disappeared, it's just shifted from Big Fei to Martin.
