I too agree.
The officiating in the NBA should learn from the NHL. During an NBA game how many plays in a close game under 2:00 are without a foul being whistled? I would say very few. I shake my head every time they show a replay and you can clearly see that the refs just blow their whistle because they are just like pavlov's dogs and that's what they do...
In the NHL you will get called for a penalty in a close game as the game is winding down or even in overtime...but it will be a penalty and there is usually little to no debate about it. Whereas in the NBA many penalties late in the game or in overtime are often questionable.
