Nonplussed...

I don't know if I'm the only one that thinks this, but is it me, or do refs like LeBron?  A lot.  No one's really mentioning it though.  [Insert David Stern conspiracy theory].  It was a moderately big deal when Leon Powe went to the line 13 times in game 2 of the Finals last year, a big deal because the entire Lakers squad only went to the line 10 times.  Ok, I can see how that's weird, I mean, it is the Lakers, and it is Leon Powe.

I haven't seen the games really all that much, but it is sort of interesting that in the first two games of the series LeBron has already had 31 attempts at the charity stripe.  31 in two games (14 in the game 1, 17 in game 2).  That's a lot.  Especially when you consider that EVERY PISTON COMBINED has only seen 28 attempts.  [Insert David Stern conspiracy theory]
