Hughes:Refs, get your acts together

ESPN.com contributor Frank Hughes has his take on NBA referees protesting the
suspension of one of their own after the controversial end of the Nuggets' Feb.
25 loss to the Lakers. Hughes wonders what the reactions in various NBA cities
will be if playoff seedings are decided in wake of that Nuggets-Lakers' result.
Here's an excerpt: "All because of boob referee Michael Henderson, who
inadvertently blew his whistle and handed the Lakers … who else? … a
victory over the Nuggets that could have more far-reaching effects than anyone
ever imagined if several variables conspire to send this situation into the
territory of public flammability. And the rest of the officials are protesting
the league's decision to suspend Henderson for three games? I have two
thoughts: The first is 'Shut,' the second is 'Up.' "
