for publicly stating that an NBA official gave him the heads up that they were planning on officiating Yao Ming differently. The series went seven games as the Mavs came back from an 0-2 hole to win the series.
I don't remember the Mavs-Rockets series too well, however the Kings Lakers series was a travesty. I remember getting physically ill watching that game, because we always joked that games were fixed or made NBA-WWF comparisons, but there it was right before our eyes; proof. After that series, I have never viewed the NBA the same it has gone from #1 to probably #6 or #7.
