ARE THE NBA FINALS RIGGED?

Let me be clear about this...NO THEY ARE NOT!  It's ridiculous to think that David Stern would instruct referees to intentionally call fouls on Kevuin Durant in this series as some conspiracy theorists (or idoiots) are suggesting.  The NBA would rather have Durant and James going back and forth, scoring 50 points apiece and putting on a show instead of having the talents of the second best player in the NBA on the bench for part of the game due to foul trouble.  Other people are pointing to the free throw attempt advantage the Heat have had throughout the playoffs and the fact that LeBron is never in foul trouble as indicators the playoffs are fixed.  First, LeBron is never in foul trouble because he is an excellent defender and has more talent than everybody else so he does not need to foul.  Was Jordan ever in fould trouble?  Also, the Heat shoot more free throws because LeBron and Wade attacked the basket ferociously all the time.  With that being said, I hope LeBron doesn't score another point in this series...
