Who sucks more, Bruce Bowen or Byron Scott

Watch Bruce Bowen kick Chris Paul.

Then, Chris Paul gets called for the foul!

I'll spare you the Tim Donaghy jokes, and seriously, if the NBA front office is paying ANY attention here, a big, whoop-ass fine is heading Bruce Bowen's way right now, and those refs get a serious "WTF?!" speech from Stu Jackson.

But what really is surprising is Byron Scott not getting T'ed up here.  If I'm the coach, I get T'ed up here on purpose.  Then I call a time-out.  Let the refs take a look at their idiocy on the in-stadium replay for a few minutes.  How many times do you think they watch Bruce Bowen actively, purposefully kick CP3 while he's on the ground before they come to the realization that they might have screwed the pooch on that one, and float the Hornets a few make-up calls?

And again, after the fiasco of Nash getting pile-drived last year, and the spurs not really getting punished for it, Bruce Bowen's 500 game starting streak had better be ending soon if the NBA wants to keep any illusion alive that it's refereeing does not suck.
