what about the phantom tech near the end
Not true. I remember all of the old site forming together to root against the celtics.This the nba not college football. Fan bases don't form like voltron in hopes of taking down the champs
Refs dumping dirt on their grave so they cant climb out though? How do you rationalize that.Houston went the last 4 minutes without scoring a field goal but yeah let's blame the refs
That's not for him to decide though. Players aren't allowed to go out of their way to touch the ball after a made basket. If the ball goes bouncing toward mid court, the officials can blow their whistle and stop the clock. He should have just went the other way to set up on defense.That was complete bullshyt. If anything Coward saved them time by throwing it directly to the ref.

The only thing we got away with was Bron holding Lin but we can go back and forth all night on some calls the refs did or didn't make. At the end of the day you need to keep scoring to secure a win and Houston couldn't do that.Refs dumping dirt on their grave so they cant climb out though? How do you rationalize that.
We're gonna pretend that those phantom calls happen regularly? I never seen a delay of game tech applied in that situation. Or the mystery tech.That's not for him to decide though.

The reason players tap or lob the pass to the official is to burn clock and prevent the other team from running. No other reason.
They were calling that regularly earlier in the season. It's kinda like complaining when a ref calls traveling. I have absolutely no problem with the fact that they called it there, the only issue is that they call it so inconsistently that players have been conditioned to thinking they can get away with it again.We're gonna pretend that those phantom calls happen regularly?

That sounds like a T. But if the ball is just bouncing by itself and a guy tjrows it to the ref, thats helping the ref. I've seen Blake Griffin do what Howard did just this wk, and the refs had commonsense. He saved them time by getting the ball for em.It was more useful when Beverly knocked it outta Cole hand during that inbounds and the refs said no
Refs looked bad right there
I was sitting there watching likeif mchale dosnt put & leave that bum azz lin in at the end
if wouldnt even had mattered
. That was one decision i just couldnt understand at all
