Horrible officiating

Question

What&#x27;s new?  NBA continues to fail us and not deliver a good product.  A few minutes ago KD drove the lane and dunked to bring the Thunder within 1, and the replay clearly shows Chalmers slapping his hand on the dunk.  Westbrook clearly gets mauled on a 3, no call.In a few years, this league will become the NHL.  And it&#x27;s their own fault.

lol are u serious. complaining about the refs when they were on okc the entire game. just look at the free throws disparity before the last 5 when okc was fouling on purpose and tech on westbrook.

Call it both ways please

WillyWonka · Answer

okl city 2h -.5.   equals

mellow_wolf · Answer

Westbrook is not going to get that call, at that juncture, facing this team. What did you really expect?

By the way, did the horrible officiating also involve OKC getting 38 FT attempts to Miami's 19?

payne034 · Answer

you people kill me complaing about the disparity on free throws....

did you not watch the same game???

when ok city is driving to the lane all game and miami shooter jumper after jumper your not going to get the same free throws....

watch the game before you talk please!!!!

westbrook didnt cost his team nothing he had a lot of emotion after a no call that cost his team a possible push to ot.

any athlete with heart would have reacted that way

DanTos8715 · Answer

OKC was driving the lane the entire game. There is going to be a unbalance of free throws.

KD dunked the ball to bring the Thunder within 1 with 2 minutes left. He clearly got his hand slapped on the way. He screamed AND 1. The replay shows it was a clear foul.

Westbrook got mauled on the game tying 3. I'm not saying it is swayed one way or the other, but to deny the fact that the officiating is unacceptable, is well, unacceptable.

Ok City had 15 seconds with 1 timeout left....they should have went for the easy 2 and foul again...

All 5 Miami players were outside the arc...they could have scored with 11 seconds let and still hoped miami would miss atleast 1....

No reason for them to force up 2 3 balls there

He played terrible. He shot 5-19 and committed 5 turnovers and made a bunch of bad decisions. Sickening to lose that game and then the 2nd half on a F Ucking technical. OKC should have gotten many more calls then they got in this game.

dgnowsf · Answer

lol lebron and wade got hammered repeatedly in the 2nd half with no calls. 22-2 at one point with wade and lebron?

just because your bet was on okc, please keep it real and not one sided. wade and lebron got hit all day in the 2nd half and not many were called. take out the last 5 free throws, and it isn't close to how bad they were favoring okc.

refs kept the game close by getting okc to the line, otherwise this would of been a blowout. and with a marquee matchup like this, nba wants to keep the game close.

dgnowsf · Answer

as far as the westbrook 3. clearly he threw his legs out reggie miller style, which is actually an offensive foul in the nba now

DanTos8715 · Answer

My bet was the over in the 2H dgnowsf. Your bet was clearly the Heat. How about you keep it real and not one sided. Take your own advice. How about the charge on westbrook while Allen was turned sideways and still moving?

Multiple horrible calls. Glad you won your wager, but it doesnt negate the horrible officiating.

bhawksfan · Answer

Officiating clearly favoured the Heat (game was in Miami, whats new), the biggest joke was the offensive foul they called on Westbrook....Allen was moving (his foot wasnt planted) and westbrook didnt even run him over (tried to get past him on the side of the bodies).

As for OKC, it seems like they still havent learnt why they performed so poorly in the finals last year, DEFENSE. One of the most important possessions of the game, they give up an easy dunk to Bosh on a major defensive breakdown.

Ferguson_Funk · Answer

&#xD;&#xA;and highlite how bad a missed call it was??? com on now the league is smarter then that, thats how you no its shady when they do that. every other play they have 4 or so different angles unless its gonna compromise something or the leagues integretity

sabermaths · Answer

ray allen needs to be reviewed for flopping

dgnowsf · Answer

I&#x27;ll have to watch replay but it did look like Westbrook hit him across the head or shoulder with his elbow. Westbrook didn&#x27;t even argue that call like all the other ones (before or after that play), pretty sure he knows he hit Allen.Either way, even IF that call was a bad call, it doesn&#x27;t change the fact that the game was in favor of OKC to keep them in the game. My only bet was Heat -2 and Under 206 for game, could care less about 2H. You can argue that the first 42 minutes, OKC got the calls, last 6, Heat did. Still not going to change the fact that OKC got the calls majority of the game to keep them in it.
