The officials should be fined for terrible calls or non-calls like that....

Ladies and gents... I introduce Karl Lane



He reffed both games this year where we got 5 FTs:

Cuban sends a tape to the league office, Yao gets called for illegal screens the rest of the series and we lose.

Morey & JVG send in a tape on how EVERY team hacks the hell out of Yao, no-calls persist and we lose.

Memo to CFans: nothing has changed.

WE ARE THE MOST HATED TEAM IN THE NBA.

Conclusion: Les must not have much caché among owners. Gotta remember that NBA owners pay the commissioner's salary.

 

Why hello there, Mr. Karl Lane...

 

I am fuming right now.

 

If Harden/McHale/Morey/Les let this slide, I'll be truly disappointed. They have to call these refs out in the media! Fines be damned.

Right now, this is some BS with how the refs are calling games! Shed some light on this BS and it won't happen again. Take it to the media! Fastest and most effective way to deal with this BS!

 

Don't forget the bad calls last night, even though Beard wasn't playing

 

which ref made money w a bookie tonight?

 

We should all spam the NBA and NBAREF twitter pages with the gif of the "No Call". Spam them all night long!

 

Wasn't the Grizzles like 1 or 2 point favorites tonight?

 

We might have won the game.

Two totally different situations when you are down if Harden got the call and made at least one free throw.

Make two free throws and Memphis might try to win the game on a three. Or they might go for the tie.

 

I feel like we were jobbed two nights in a row, we should be on a 7 game winning streak right now.

 

They should be fired!

Actually why have video review if you can't overturn calls? They do it for techs, ball going out of bounds.

Much more for calls in the last 2 minutes of close games. There should be automatic review with ability to overturn calls.

 

I believe refs should be analysed after every game and their performance ranked for all to see. It will keep them on their toes. If it's a points system the NBA can ensure that there is at least one highly ranked official alongside a lower ranked one.

I think the NBA needs to introduce a challenge system like we have in tennis as well. 3 Challenges per game. Certainly could have used it then. It's extremely effective in tennis.

 

Cuban spent millions to get the NBA officiate Yao differently.

Cuban held a grudge against Yao. He believed if Yao hadn't backed out of his original deal to enter the NBA he would've been a Mav. Donnie Nelson was the one who laid the groundwork and had established the connections to get Yao to the NBA.

 

Can we find his twitter account or personal info? Maybe send something to his house or something

 

They also possibly screwed us out of 8 seconds!!! I'm telling y'all. Check out the 6:02 mark. The camera shows Harden letting the ball bounce, cuts to a different angle, then quickly cuts back to an overhead view, and you see Harden letting the ball roll up. He picks it up at around the 5:53-2 mark on the clock, just after passing half-court when Harden realizes the shot clock hadn't started, but the game clock had...

Harden clearly complains about it, but shrugs it off because the clock had been running. So I don't think he touched it. The only explanation I can think of is that the shot clock at the arena started and Harden was complaining about THAT clock starting -- which would still mean he didn't touch it and the clock shouldn't have run. I never saw the correction in the clock.

Did ANYONE notice this or am I going insane? It's been a rough day so it's entirely possible...
