Woj: The league was obviously embarrassed today over that missed call but there won't be a punishment or fine for an official. What will happen is it'll get in their record, might impact them getting playoff assignments or advancing in the playoffs. The league puts out a 2-minute report every day and obviously they said they missed the call on Durant but what was also in there was Harden fouling Durant moments earlier. It was not a moment of pride for the league. A lot of embarrassment and in a lot of ways, Harden bailed them out on this Durant issue by winning the game.
it’s crazy how much they allow Donkey to throw a tantrum after almost every call against him...Donkey throwing tantrums like a coach who’s trying to get ejected all the time
No discipline means the league doesn't care. They're not embarrassed. If they were embarrassed they would make an effort to change things.
This shows you how my the ref's cheat HOUSTON UREAL. How about the elbow to Harden they didn't even go to the monitor are you kidding me. Here's the thing in the NFL when the line ref missed a call like that he was fired. In the first quarter the rockets were getting hammer and they called nothing but as soon as any warrior drove to the rim it was a foul unreal.
So true. Durant also ran for three steps out of bounds before laying on the floor out of bounds to knock the ball back into play. It wasn't as if he leaped from inbounds and came down before knocking the ball down. He was running around out of bounds to get to the ball.
Im really glad refs are being put on blast right now so that as fans we can atleast HOPE that they will call it fair come playoff time. But i have this bad feeling they will continue to screw our team and beard with the 'no blood no foul style' in the postseason and let GSW get away with their moving screens.
That's ridiculous, there are TONS of kickball calls just when it bounces off someone's feet.... I dont remember ever hearing that intent had to be behind it.
i mean the way you described what tucker was doing says it all. but anyways moving on to portland. lets get it
No they make 6 figures plus. Also no excuse. A job is a job.if I pay you to make pizza and you made a burger your fired! Highest level of basketball there are no excuses.
No more of “the refs missed KD out of bounds” stuff. We need their names. It took a few minutes of digging but here they are: John Goble (#30) Tony Brown (#6) Tre Maddox (#73) Let’s refer to them by name
Does anyone else find it humerous that the league seemingly always has to justify one bad missed call on one team (ie the out of bounds call against Houston) by quickly stating "but but but it didn't affect the result becaust AcTuAlLy we missed a call on Houston here"
They missed like 4 consecutive calls on us and called bullshit fouls on Tucker. Harden got fouled for the game winner, a previous Harden out of bounds touch, and the big durant one and every other Harden drive
