Lakers the officials suck.

[mth1997]

My Dad refuses to watch the NBA because of the officiating, there is no other sport that the refs influence the outcome more than basketball. Sometimes I feel like the refs have been given an agenda to create a game 7 scenario to generate more revenue for the league.

Bottom line is if the Lakers did not blow that big lead, it would have never come down to the refs....

One of my buddies is the same way. I've been hearing about the refs trying to make a big money 7 game series for a while but never gave it much thought til this year. A compelling argument to say the least. Its hard to refute the whole 'visiting team constantly in foul trouble' thing. Doesn't happen every game, but it happens a lot. Coincidence?

[The Angler]

ever since that 1 ref came out and admitted they fixed games all the time and even the first of the Lakers 3-peat some of the were games fixed. He never said what games but he gave a really detailed discription of the lakers series. damn i forgot his name.


But yea the refs make some sbullshit calls on the Lakers

Apparently throwing the ball at another player isnt considered a foul anymore either???

I really hope you're not referring to the ball Chauncey threw off of Kobe's back.
