It's not officiating. It's favoritism to orchestrated to follow the league offices agenda. You think they want the rockets to have the best record in the league. We are not marketable because we don't market to fake fans. We all know which team and only team in the league who markets to fake fans. Fake fans =$$$$. And that's all the silver cares about.
What I've always wondered is why they can't get 4+ refs per game. League got money bags, and refs have huge impact on the game. Just hire some more, how hard would it be?
with the recent officiating fiasco against Rockets and Cavs, looks like NBA is working on getting Warriors and OKC onto the tops.
this is seriously a good discussion, and its not filled with people saying "first page" . It has some good mature insightful posts. Please dont ruin it this is clutchfans.net not toxicfans.net. Your quote added no value to the discussion.
Yeah thats why they are having that meeting with the refs, and players reps. There is a lot of tension out there, and it seems the refs are tired of the players crying, but on the other hand the players are tired of the refs missing calls. "Maybe" players are seeing how Draymond Green gets away with so much, and that Green has raised the bar concerning what you can, or cannot get away with. Not a huge Spurs fan, but Leonard is a great example of a NBA player who doesn't give the refs a lot of grief.
What is the point of having refs over looking the game from all the camera's out in Jersey? Aren't they suppose to help correct calls & speed games up? It seems like w/ the addition of refs over looking all those camera's in jersey does nothing but slow things down...
Neither does the one I referenced. It was completely uncalled for as the person who mentioned about his refereeing experience had an extremely good point to make. That's why I said what I said. And I'm not the only person who pointed it out, either. Maybe, instead of worrying about me, you should concentrate on the person who made the pointless comment in the first place, eh?
If flopping never started the game would be so much easier to officiate. Players are constantly trying to fool refs into calling fouls and refs are trying to determine whats a legit foul versus a flop. Players are to blame for this officiating mess also. What happened with the Lebron calls obviously didn't have anything to do with flopping but just making a point that players are to share the blame for this also.
That was absolutely comical, considering what he gets away with every other game he plays. I guess the NBA needs to have something to point to when it's brought up how much the Warriors get away with. "but but but, we ejected Draymond that one time!"
The waiting to see if the player makes the shot before calling foul is sooooo suspicious. I mean seriously how the hell do refs do this? Harden has been getting hand checked and teams playing illegal defense for a little while now.
