I know this is not the board and y'all can delete if y'all want, but these referees are freaking horrible. How the frick do you call a moving screen on Lebron in that situation?( and I hate Lebron).

The refs have a hard job, I know. But, they have been extremely horrible all series long . They blow the whistle just because there is one in their mouth. It is hard to watch.

Yeah, I didn't think he was going to foul out because c'mon. But with that call, idk man, idk.

though,



Spoelstra looked like he didn't know what to do when that happened.

The 24 second clock was far far worse.

I really think about 20% off the calls they make are the right call. All other are just pure guesses and anticipation.

I'll tell you a call the guess on 90% of the time. It's when the player steps close to the baseline. They automatically blow the whistle, and you hardly ever see a replay. Maybe in a crucial part of the game you may see a replay, but during the course of the game, the network really doesn't show one.

hard to justify a lot of calls..even giving them the benefit of doubt in the heat of the moment..refs shouldn't have such an integral part in the game, annoying to watch as a fan

To me it's not about any particular team. It's about the poor officiating night in and night out. The refs come into the games with the Napoleon complex and ruin games. It becomes more about them than the players on the court. It's just really disheartening at times. I'm constantly shaking my head.

Napoleon complex? We aren't talking about ed hoculi or something

I don't think its all that when it comes to refs.

Its the same things to me, emotional calls, home court advantage, and superstar status calls. But I agree, shits sickening sometimes.

That call literally swung the game. I don't think Miami sniffs the lead the rest of the way if they don't make that call tbh.

The T on Lebron seemed bizarre, as well. The ref tried to pick up a bracelet and hand it to him, but I didn't see how it got on the floor. Did Lebron throw it?

Oh, and the Miami Heat and their fans can NEVER, EVER, MUHFUGGIN EVA complain about officiating with the amount of flopping they do. Bitches cry wolf.

Did you watch the feet on that screen? Lebron tripped him. Clear foul.

Joey Crawford would like to thank all of you for tuning in to watch him referee last night

yes they showed the replay and talked about it after the game. the tnt panel agreed it was a foul LeBron clearly tripped him. with that said there were numerous bogus calls on both teams and that 24 second violation was inexplicable

The moving screens and holds that they are letting Battier get away with are absurd. That foul they called in his favor was terrible.

Also, Lance Stephenson probably could have gotten a call on that 3 to end the 3rd.

I thought they said in was a foul tongue-in-cheek. That whistle doesn't get blown 90% of the time. Even if it was a November game on a Tuesday night in Milwaukee.

I hate the Heat. I'm pulling for the Pacers. Most of the canals I think are terrible are going against the Pacers. But that whistle on Lebron(again, whom I despise), with the game in balance, is fricking inexcusable.

You said it right. Joey Crawford loves to make the games about him. It's sad.

not saying that call usually gets made but by rule it was technically a foul. with Crawford officiating and a chance to make a scene by fouling out LeBron he will make that call 10 out of 10 times. that dude really should not be employed by the nba anymore
