The thing that makes me so angry is how late the whistle came on that play.  That play probably cost us the game, terrible offciating.

That was the right call.  Late calls are frustrating, but you should always get the call right.

But the tech was bogus.

Yeah, I love the techs for what the guy MUST be thinking on the inside.

By the book, it was a moving screen, but IMHO, moving screens are the most inconsistently called fouls in the NBA. I did not watch this game, but am willing to bet there were other moving screens just as bad that went uncalled.

Seriously, Anderson Verajao would foul out of every game if all refs called this every time it happened.

I should also say that the one Big Baby fouled out on the other night was NOT a foul.

wow, I didn't realize how late that whistle was. he was already in the act of driving, what was he supposed to do?
 
another point, as the announcers kept saying the play was over, well if the play was over then why did brad miller go so hard at walker?

I was at the game and the first whistle sounded like a two year old did it, maybe if the ref would have grown a pair and blew it Billy would've heard him and stopped. Bill did nothing wrong and got screwed. Terrible terrible terrible reffing all game. I felt disgusted after my first celtics game I've ever attended...officials took the celebrating that night right away from me!!!!!!!!!

Yeh, the first whistle was very quick and quiet...There's no big issue with him dunking there...The problem was the pose he did in Miller's face after the dunk.
Yup

Impressive dunk but I hope Walker isn't going to be one of those guys who celebrates his own dunks when we're getting blown out and other pointless times.  I hope Walker didn't hear the whistle or else the whole thing would be even stupider.
