WTF was that???

What was up with the officiating tonight in the Bulls vs Hawks?  Luol Deng tries to draw a foul at one end by getting his guy up in the air and then jumping into him while shooting and there is no call.  The EXACT SAME THING happens on the other end of the court 20 SECONDS LATER and they call it against Luol.  Derek Rose is fouled on a three point attempt and they call it a jump ball??  Now the Bulls did not look great. and I rarely complain about officiating, but tonight I think the ref's played a role in extending this series.  I will say it, because Tom Thibodeau cannot. 

Other notes:  we were getting beat up in the lane and should have utilized Kurt Thomas.  Kyle Korver cannot guard quick perimeter players and should not have been given that assignment (especially considering how cold he was in shooting.  Leave Bogans out there or put Ronnie Brewer in.  I liked what I saw out of Asik.  And what was up with us continually leaving their big guys unguarded right under the basket?  No wonder they shot such a high percentage.  Uncontested dunks tend to go in most of the time. 

Miami is looking good; as is Dallas.  We need to get it together team and play your best b-ball from here on out.
