Dame is diving this bus

[–] Philly139@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

You know the refs fucked ha when even Celtics fans in here are admitting it

[–] kokukojuto33@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

3 refs cant see that, yeah, sure. Corruption at its finest.

[–] tulaero23@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

This and the oubre offensive foul when crawford pushed oubre then magically bounce off killed the sixera lmao.

Ref's coming in clutch, making sure lillard wins his first win as a bucks.

Just something else that the NBA decided to do differently than high school, college and FIBA.

As long as it’s a legitimate shot attempt, you should be able to rebound your miss, airball or not.

Watching the NBA is like watching a bizarro version of basketball with the “gather step”, no real zone defenses, carry the ball everywhere and star treatment.

I just want to watch the best athletes in the world playing by the same basic rules as the kids I coach.

Refs changed the game

[–] youarenut@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I’m a huge bucks fan, but even at some points I was like this has gotta be rigged for the bucks because the officiating was atrocious

[–] Fun-Advertising-4723@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

And they lost by 1 lol

[–] MazKhan@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

How tf do you airball an uncontested layup

[–] Sueaq@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Travel for sure but if they didn’t stop to complain they might’ve been able to deflect the pass. They gotta play until the whistle even if they get hoed by the refs

[–] flappypancaker@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Mark my words…Bucks are gonna be the Lakers of the East in terms of soft ass calls. By the end of the year Bucks will have a +300 FT differential and win a ton of close games with 10 more free throws than their opponent.

Edit: OH AND DAME SHOT 17 GODDAMN FREE THROWS TONIGHT, WHO WOULD’VE GUESSED?!

The league is a joke now with these no calls in high leverage situations

[–] Michauxonfire@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

it touched the infamous ghost rim.

[–] Kmactothemac@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Lost by 1, what a joke. Not to mention Giannis would be getting 12 fouls a game if he wasn't a star

[–] username802@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

That was one of the worst officiated games I've ever watched. This was just one instance. Refs fucking up sometimes is understandable, but it is very annoying when it makes the difference between winning and losing a game.

[–] laugh-shitoff@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

The refs beat the Sixers last night. This was one example. The overturned call against Tucker was worse. If it's not a defensive foul then it's a charge against Giannis and his 5th foul. Too much contact to be overturned to a no call. Silver was in the crowd and the refs were cooking.

[–] TheConboy22@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

This play broke the game. Was a great game up to that point.

[–] DEEZLE13@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Refs in mid season form on their knees

[–] Bubbly-Stage2094@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Worst professional sports product.

[–] CommonConundrum51@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Big star = different rules.

[–] thisisbyrdman@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

As always, worth mentioning that this is ordinary incompetence, not rigging games. Now, this type of incompetence could easily be fixed through accountability programs or replay, but the league isnt interested in that when they could be selling more gambling ads.

[–] Wildpinkhairuke@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Best player in the world. Just don't call charges, travels, more than 10secs at the line. Also don't look at FT%, 3pt%, any midrange shot.

[–] Walink92@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I was once told by a ref (in Europe) that as long as there is intention of shooting you can pick up the airball. I don't know if that's true and it applies in the NBA though

[–] dfsaqwe@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

i heard there's going to be a ref ama

[–] ignoramus_x@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Bro is just Thanasis but taller

[–] katsikisj@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

One point game

[–] PullingtheVeil@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

This group of refs should never be allowed to officiate another NBA game.

[–] ed20g@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

No need to read "the email". Bet on the Bucks

[–] Mountain-Way6904@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Lol just one?
