See I hate these kind of fans that try to act "unbiased" The Mo Williams steal on Lin went out of bounds on Mo Williams no call Dwight loses ball apparently off him when it clearly wasnt.. Batum hits 3 Beverly fouls Batum on fastbreak no call... Lillard gets 2 free points Harden gets fouled shooting 3 by LMA no call...
I don't know. It worked for Dallas in 2005. The refs essentially took Yao out of that series after the Mavs complained to the league. If Morey and McHale aren't making it known to the NBA front office that the refs have been horrible in this series, than the league ain't gonna rectify the situation. Have someone go public and get fined if necessary. But say something!
As a realist there were bad calls both ways. I can name the Harden push off on Matthews, and then he shuffled his feet on that three, the continuation for Beverley when the blazers had a foul to give.
I totally agree. This is terrible calling by the refs, and that's twice they've blown plays that involved dwight late in game. (Game 1 foul out call, then the out of bounds play tonight). I have no clue what we have done to refs to make them hate us.
That's why the thread title says that they dictated G4 outcome not that they clearly favored a side to win (even though I privately felt that). They wanted to prolong this game and send it to overtime by which point the Rockets had already given it their all to win the game in regulation period, leaving no energy left for the extra 5 minutes. That is BS referee-ing
not only g4, but game 1 and 2. Haven't really pay close attention to the other series, but some of those games were probably fixed as well.
okay guys help me out here: 1) williams out of bounds (would have had ball and no 3, win for rockets) 2) called out of bound on howard when replay and whole world saw it went off on portland 3) harden gets mugged on 3 4) on same play where harden gets mugged on 3 howard gets called for foul when mathews flopped like a baby. Howard being penalized for being tall? 5) parson called for flagrant got ball, AND they get ball instead of just free throws 6)?? surely I am missing some here. 2 blatants, 3 pretty close to blatant. this league. wow. down 3-1 and should be up 3-1 this might be it. replay showed it was a trip. announcers , everyone.. You really like trolling don't you? There are studies about guys like you. You need help for real.
Let's not forget the tech called on Dwight. There was literally NOTHING. He didn't talk to anyone, didn't hit anyone, he literally didn't do ANYTHING.
At some point Les has to say enough of this ____ and send this in to the league and complain. IT WORKS. Cuban does it ALL the time. Put pressure on the league and ask WTF is going on here.
Well, just like our politics, we really have no say in anything anymore... why no one votes, it's always someone else should complain to the league. If you want something to happen. Hmmm, maybe stop watching basketball until they fix the ref's situation/problem. What did African Americans do in the 60's? That's right, they boycotted. It's insanity watching day in and day out these refs dictating outcome of games. Let's face it, it's more stress that it's worth to you. But you'll watch and complain anyway. Rockets for Life!!
If am not mistaken they could've gone to replay for that Dwight out of bounds call since it was overtime. If that was the case, then it makes it even worse of a call. From nba.com • During the last two minutes of regulation play and the entire duration of any overtime period, to determine which of two players on opposing teams caused the ball to become out-of-bounds. This modification expanded the previous rule to include the entirety of an overtime period instead of just the last two minutes of an overtime period.
I sure hope they listen. Something tells me they won't. These damn refs have cost us 2 games for sure.
I thought overall the refs did a decent job. But they blew some very important calls that went against the Rockets at the end of the game.
