    Biggest ref ripoff I have ever seen. Francis scores 27 in the first half and the ref tosses him from the game right at the start of the third for NOTHING. Picked up his second technical....

    I am starting to hate NBA basketball.

    tell me about it...what a joke...

    The first call was questionable, too. The second technical, seemed like somebody with an ego problem...

    What happened to "no harm, no foul"? Let the players play, I don't tune in or show up to see the guys in black and white!

    Some people on this site would have you believe Steve gets favorable calls from the refs just like every other superstar. BULL****!!! Two piece of **** calls for technicals. Complete crap. I say drag langhi off the bench to sucker punch crawford just for the hell of it.

    Oh and God bless Mark Cuban. Keep up the good fight (even if you are a rich egomaniac).

    Crawford said that Francis was ejected because he apparently threw an arm/elbow at stockton.... i saw the arm going at stockton, but that wasn't even close... and it wasn't really going at stockton... pathetic.

    Crawford is an idiot.

    That was THE WORST CALL IN THE HISTORY OF SPORTS!

    I pray to God that play is reviewed and that ref is fined. If he is that would never get out though. I've always hated that a-hole.

    That was ludicrous beyond words.

    Its complete and total horse****.

    What is it that refs don't understand about not seriously affecting the outcome of a game like that.

    Dammit.

    Where's Mark Cuban when you need him?

    How is it that Steve shrugs off an arm and gets a technical foul called, but Karl Malone knocks Tim Duncan out by throwing an elbow, and Duncan gets called for the foul . . .

    The NBA is a farce!

    man.. and what makes it even worse is the fact that francis may have been about to go off for 50 pts or something in this game.. he was well on his way to crushing his career high

    The first technical that Steve got was a dumbass call as well... the all idiot team of referees in tonight, no doubt.

    Mark Cuban is absolutely right... these guys are flaming idiots.
