Refs giving

Re: Refs giving

Do you need a diaper change and a warm bottle? Westbrook and Durant were the only ones scoring... 71 between the two. 27 by the rest of the team. The refs are just stealing the game from them... GTFO of here.
 
Re: Refs giving

The refs are clearly calling everything (even if it is imaginary on the Thunder). Even the ass-kissing announcers can't spin it.
Shameful. The casual fan will not watch NBA after this officiating. Davind Stern.. check. Fixed lottery.. check. Refs documented throwing games (Tim Donaghy).. check.

Put a fork in the NBA.
 
Re: Refs giving

The NBA owns the NO Hornets and won the lottery here is what 9000+ people thought. Looks like David Stern got voted 18% of the time.

Do you think the NBA Lottery was fixed?

No. We need to stop that talk right now
18%
Of course it was. NBA wasn't even sly about it
54%
Don't know. But I could believe it
27%
TOTAL VOTES: 9012
 
Re: Refs giving

The whole lottery thing is B.S. any way you slice it. Just like the NFL, the NBA wants offense. No more playing defense like the Knicks of the '90s or the Bad Boys of Detroit. Like it or not, that's today's NBA. But to say the refs are costing the Thunder the series is crazy. Durant is getting his and Westbrook went off but they are not getting much help elsewhere. The Heat have out played OKC down the stretch in the last 3 games, plain and simple.

The refs blow calls both ways, the home team will shoot more free throws. Westbrook made 2 bad plays at the end to cost them the game. The refs are bad, but not that bad.

Agreed. It cracks me up to see some of my friends and family act like their life is going to change if some grown ass men playing a kids game win or loose a game just because the team is based out of this state.
 
Re: Refs giving

NBA sucks..... I lose interest in basketball after college season goes off. A bunch of over paid guys playing a damn sport that are better actors then athletes. Sad....
 
Re: Refs giving

They won it looked like that was the plan all along. I know the OKC team didnt play well and were out played but if you are called for every ticky tack bs foul you can be called for at some point you do nothing well. And you are dead on Floppers should be beaten to cure the problem its as bad as soccer. PG
 
Re: Refs giving

I blame soccer for the mainstreaming of flopping in other US sports such as the NBA and NFL..

case in point

I admire soccer for the difficulty of the sport, but lack respect for how it's usually played
