I'm done.  I barely watch the NFL anymore due to crooked officiating and them pushing false narratives politically.  I can't take these refs.  Theis had ALL BALL and now Lou Williams is getting the Lebron treatment.

I try not to make excuses by pinning things on the refs, but they're really calling a different game on either end of the court. Celtics are getting called for breathing on the Clips right now.

Jaylen's brain has been off most of this game.

Yeah he is out of synch on offense.  He seems to be making things hard on Lou Williams though.
That much I agree with,even if he's been spun around a few times.

oh that block by Theis was COMPLETELY clean.

Watching ESPN too, they don’t even mention or replay it. ESPN so out of touch

Jaylen has been working really hard on the defensive end. He's our top defender in this game.

Jaylen is just off.  That last 3 he took was one of the worst shots I've seen him take - out of rhythm, shot the ball on the way down.

Hopefully he can knock down these FTs.

One one hand when a guy like Semi can't hit the ocean from the beach I'd like to see him make up for it by playing D, rebounding, and hustling.  On the other hand, I'm impressed he isn't gun shy just because he's been cold lately.  Any wide open shot is a great shot.  Don't wanna be scared to shoot already.

Are we really moaning about officiating again?

officials dont have it out for us. We just foul the other team more than they foul us. That simple.

No, it's really not that simple. I'm pretty sure we only did the "hack-a-Jordan" twice, meaning there was a legitimate 16-6 disparity in the fouls.

That's simply uncalled for, and in virtually every case in the NBA that is an unjustifiable spreading of the fouls, in one half no less.

And it's not like this is a rare thing; it's literally almost every game that the refs rack up a huge disparity in the first half and then have to compensate with a differing officiating standard in the second half.
I think weve gotten the shaft on some level tonight, but the idea that there exists an agenda or that it doesnt in large part even out is totally ridiculous.

Where were all the conspiracy theorists when we were on the lucky side of call after call against the Warriors?

How about when we were permitted to mug the Rockets the entire second half?

officials make mistakes. Sometimes you end up on the bad side sometimes the good. Moaning about them as if they have an agenda against us is such a poor excuse.

Nobody (at least not me) is saying that they have an agenda. I'm simply saying that they're incompetent, garbage refs, and I say this on pretty much every game I watch.  There's just no objective standard of officiating anymore, and virtually every single ref struggles with consistency, both in individual games and between games. And the result is this type of major foul disparity that is based on pure incompetence and inconsistency.

EDIT: And a perfect example right there - Johnson CLEARLY goaltends on that Brown "jumpball," yet the ref somehow misses that right in front of him.
OK

I can agree with all this. I think officials are garbage and I think it is a problem (although I think a large part of the problem is that its just really really hard).

My comment was directed at the people who think officials have it out for us. Thats bogus.

TP. And it certainly is hard. Hell, even junior high games that I would ref were hard.

The fundamental problem is that they're simply too involved in the game. Many of the calls that they make shouldn't be made, and this leads to more chances to err. But since the NBA is really pushing this offense/perimeter-oriented game anymore, the refs have to call that crap.

When Brown is struggling with the outside shot, he needs to be patient and get to the rim.
Aggressive drives to the rim will get fouls at least.
