It's not just fouls, Chris.

Every loose ball that goes out of bounds gets awarded to the home team.

It's annoying to me that the media doesn't talk about this subject.

I think we're all smart enough to see through the "they slept in their own beds last night" and "the crowd really gave them energy" bullshit.

Check out the free throw discrepancies in these series home/away.

The Lakers had a huge number of more free throws through two games and I was telling my buddy to "wait to see what happens when they get to Utah". He kind of laughed and shrugged it off, but he called me last night and was joking about it.

It's a joke.
