NBA Refs Suck

    Free throws are 25-7 in favor of Miami.

    Not a fan of either team, but it's pretty hard to believe Miami isn't fouling.

    I'll say this much for the refs — in a sport where nearly everyone is an incredible athlete, he's one of the few that really stands out. He's so unbelievably quick and powerful. I can see where that would cause problems with the officials.

    Wade IS that much better, and Miami has legitimate shot blockers.

    If we're on the same page, Jason Terry hit a 3-pointer as Wade ran through Devin Harris, who was screening for Terry. It's your basic and-one call, except the FT shooter isn't the guy who hit the FG.

    Awful, awful, awful, awful call. That's a charge, if anything. Ridiculous.

    I don't see how a non-shooter can be shooting a free throw without being in the penalty.

    But Dallas pretty much only shoots jumpers, and can't rebound for shit, so there's little opportunity for them to get fouled.

    If all the fouls were as terrible as the one Nowitzki was called for when Wade shoved him, then Cuban and Co. have a valid argument. That was a TERRIBLE fucking call.

    And the exact reason the NBA game is unwatchable in its current form. Just my honest opinion

    Nowitzki stumbled right into him.

    Well, you don't understand the rules, apparently. That's the rule.

    Did the P.A. announcer just announce Dan Patrick as ABC's Dan Patrick? I coulda swore that he worked for ESPN and moonlights for sister Disney station ABC.
