I posted this video because even though it was a Celtics game, it was eerily similar to any Providence Friars game I have been to.  First, the ref, which we will call Tim Higgins brother, mis-called a hard foul as a flagrant, as Glen Davis almost got ball.  Then they T up Doc Rivers twice, even though the second time he was barely saying anything.  Then, they T up Assistant Coach Armond Hill who is just standing there talking to some of the coaches.  So at the end of it all, Atlanta gets 5 foul shots and the ball, cutting a 10 point lead to 6 (one missed free throw) with no time coming off the clock.  Sure it was in the third quarter, but several Hawks players called it the key to the game for them.
