NBA Officiating for Finals

We all know that the NBA officiating has become somewhat atrocious over the last several years, and at times has seriously impacted the results of a given game.

The officiating in LA always seems to cater to the Lakers. Do you agree with this and how do you think it may effect the outcome of game two or possibly the series.

I do think that certain players get a little more lead way than others which isn't right. Officials need to remain as objective as possible, especially in big games.

Seems like Kobe gets some personal favors every now and again

I like how there's no young referees being groomed, you know? Like when a team - in any sport - is rebuilding, they have their veterans, All-Stars and then a crop of rookies/prospects who get some time. The NBA has no "prospect" officials. All guys who are like 70 and up.
