Gay refereeing

This is really beginning to piss me off - playing as Spurs vs. Rockets, the Rockets PG would launch himself into the paint, go into the fouled animation, and get 2 free throws. After the 5th foul in a row, I decided to do the exact same thing with Tony Parker, driving into the paint and launching my body into the defender. Nothing! I did it for about 8 straight times and not a single FREAKING foul call. At the same time on the other side of the court, Alston got about 10 free throws in 5 possessions.
What is this crap? If I turn down the in-air fouls slider, no one gets calls, but if I turn it up, only they get calls. This is complete utter bullshit. Stuff like this really takes the pleasure out of this game.
I've played an average 5 full seasons and 10 playoffs for each NBA Live since 1995 (except for 2002). For Live 2007, I have not played more than 20 games against the cpu. At first, I thought it was because I outgrew the game, being 30 and all. But no. It's the game. This game utterly sucks and is so frustrating. For all the people who complained in the beginning, I'm sorry. I told you guys to give this game a chance. I was wrong.

Basically you're saying it's realistic. Now days some players get all the calls, some get none.
The refree's (in the game) are spot on in that case.

It just takes time to learn how to draw fouls. My last game I drew 46 fouls from the Lakers, fouling out Kobe, Lamar, and a host of others had 5 fouls.
The next game I played, I tried the same thing to draw the fouls and it didn't work. I think team momentum may have something to do with how many calls are in your favor. So when you recognize that you are not getting the calls, try to get some clean shots off and boost that momentum.
