Stern phoned in Crawford after LBJ's three

LOL

Travel called on Wade

redeye413 · 05-28-13, 10:24 PM

I can't believe how they can call that foul on James. Sickening on ref don't care about the game anymore. You can't foul out the beat players in the last two min of the game on some weak play.

R.P. McMurphy · 05-28-13, 10:33 PM

Such a joke how long they stretch out these playoffs with their bullshit. Is anyone really dumb enough to think Indy has a shot to win this series? If it goes to 7 the league will have their goons be so one sided on Miami it won't even be funny. Just stop delaying the inevitable and get this Heatles/Spurs series fukking going already!!

I agree. This was some bullshit. The refs had way too big a impact down the stretch

The Lebron screen was godawful and never gets called. Then the Wade travel before Battier conveniently nails a 3 which in reality was a step back dribble. They didnt call Hibbert for a single offensive foul, unbelieveable

Rough call on the Lebron illegal screen, but Wade definitely walked. It's just surprising because the NBA obviously never calls traveling. Maybe if Wade had a little confidence in his jumper he wouldn't have to worry about it.

Every game officiated by Joey Crawford is a mess.

Is he due to officiate other games this series? Game 1 was a pigfuck.....did he officiate that one too?

pulledclear · 05-28-13, 10:41 PM

Its called a Double Dribble and a moving screen. Learn the game fool.

nflguru1 · 05-28-13, 10:42 PM

Calls were terrible on both sides. The logic behind the out of bounds by West even with video review was terrible

Git Lo · 05-28-13, 10:43 PM

That Wade call wasn't a walk at all, refs came out in full force in the 4th holy cow, would suck to be a heat backer.

h3da · 05-28-13, 10:47 PM

How about the refs calling shot clock turnover against pacers when it hit the board?

It was a CLEAR double dribble. FACT.

LOL...When Joey Crawford was called in after the miami heat went up 2-1...you knew what was going to happen in game 4...mind you..Indy played well enough to win but the extra nudge was there...when it was needed. Popovich told Stern to eff off yet again...and ended the series as quickly as possible...its like 9 days until the nba finals start....the public might have forgotten about it all together....lol.....something had to be done..

Doesn't matter how fast the series ends, the Finals don't start til June 6th regardless.

Stern is retiring soon, only to be replaced by a superbly trained clone. Just know that the league favors whatever team Lebron is on and the Lakers and the Knicks, and that the Spurs are the only team good enough to overcome the referees hating them, and you pretty much understand this league.

Yeah that was really bad

texhooper · 05-29-13, 08:56 AM

pretty bad however you look at it

Jgjk · 05-29-13, 09:06 AM

the out of bounds call on west was the best....

the ball clearly his allens or whoevers forearm, is DID NOT touch david west at all.

I thought nba over turns clear calls? it was clear the ball hit off heats forearm, the ball touching west was not clear at all, nor do i think it even touched him...

and the shot clock missed call
