The Officiating in the Wizards/Cavs Game is Atrocious!!! The NBA's gotta be FIXED!

Wizards are shooting 35% and the Cavs are shooting 53%...the Cavs always have refs on their side at home but that is not why the Wiz are losing.

I have the over so I am not angry but The refs are helping with these whistles.

The Wizards are clearly the better team, but the Cavaliers have the Referees on their side... That's all that matters in the NBA.

You're saying the officiating has been worth 20 pts. to the Cavs?

Iwinyourmoney · 04-21-08, 08:07 PM

officiating may go +/-6 thats about it

I don't have any money on the game, but check up on the foul distribution in the final box score. The refs are favoring the Cavs.

The refs might not account for the full 20 point lead, but they are providing the necessary momentum for the Cavs to make plays and the Wizards to feel like sh*t.

yeah- I'm sure it has nothing to do w/ shooting 37% from the field, and going 3-14 from 3pt land..

Plain and simple the Wiz didn't come to play...no way anyone could have expected the Wiz to shoot terrible and the Cavs lights out. That is why the Wiz lose this one.

Clever sarcasm in your response, but if you're a true NBA handicapper - you know exactly what I mean.

Everybody's entitled to their own opinion. I just happen to think that this would've been a more competitive game if the refs had called it a bit more fairly. That Brendan Haywood ejection was totally uncalled for. King Kong LeBron was acting.

Son the Wizards got 20 of their points at the line. And they also missed 9 FT's. Cleveland went 20-31 from the line. The officials are no excuse at all for this pathetic performance. I know BLING JAMES is the golden boy, and he may get some silly calls his way at home, but zebras aren't the reason this is a 24pt deficit...
