The officiating in tonights game was absolutly horrible. Me being a Cavs fan may cause you to think that i am just whining because they lost, but there were horrible calls made on Orlando aswell. The flagrant shouldnt have been a flagrant. It wasnt intentional, just a physical play, and Dwight Howards 6th foul was a clean block. (Just to name a few) On the Cavs side though, if they slightly touched someone it was a foul. And when Mo Williams gets run over from behind, it is a foul on him. I am surprised the Cavs didnt get any more technicals.

They need to let the teams play. Dont let the officiating decide the outcome. (Even though it always will)

The flagrant/technical calls have been out of hand the entire playoffs.

As for the conference final round, I think the Magic/Cavs series has been a lot worse officiating than the Nuggets/Lakers. But overall, the refs have been really inconsistent this postseason. I don't think they've favored any team in particular, but the inconsistency is frustrating. They need to let the players play a little.
