Ripper 0 Report post Posted April 30, 2006 That was one of the biggest crocks of shit I have ever seen. Vujac fouled him ON PURPOSE to stop the goddamn clock. THEN Lamar Odem fouled him ON PURPOSE to stop the goddamn clock. ADD on top of that Nash called a timeout before the trap even got there. All this 3 feet away from the refs and they call a goddman jump ball. Bullshit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just John 0 Report post Posted April 30, 2006 So where was that Phoenix officiating bias? Luke Walton's intentional jersey pull, and the mugging on Nash. *Sigh* Oh well, you know it will be exceptionally sweet if the CLIPPERS eliminate the Lakers from the playoffs.

naiwf 0 Report post Posted April 30, 2006 Nash did get fouled, but to be fair he all but tossed Vujacic to the ground on the inbound. I'm sure you'll see the end sequence a few hundred times tonight and see the two fouls. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Felonies! Report post Posted April 30, 2006 I know shitty officiating is the NBA's "steez," if you will, but that shit was inexcusable. They want the Lakers to win this, no question. No other team would get away with that shit. Utter bullshit indeed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Smues Report post Posted April 30, 2006 What really sucks is at this point it doesn't matter if the Lakers lose in the finals or even in 7 games in this series, all we'll hear is THEY WEREN'T SUPPOSED TO GET THIS FAR SLURP SLURP SLURP ITS ALL GRAVY BABY WOO LA LA LA LA. The Lakers three-peat pretty much killed my interest in basketball, this isn't helping. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NoCalMike 0 Report post Posted April 30, 2006 And people still pretend like there is no bias towards certain teams. Look as a fan of the game, I can sort of understand why a guy like Kobe will get favorable calls, however extending that privelage to the entire team because the jersey says "Lakers" is fucking horseshit. How was Nash not fouled twice, on top of calling fucking TO, and the official just stands there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No other team would get away with that shit. Utter bullshit indeed. If the refs wanted the Lakers to win, they wouldn't have had Kobe sit out the entire 2nd quarter. Get real, guys. Refs ALWAYS swallow their whistles in the waning seconds, especially if a play for the ball is made. Forget the fact that Nash travelled before the jump ball..

The NBA just has straight up BIASED OFFICIATING. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

slabinskia 0 Report post Posted April 30, 2006 Remember a few years back where the lakers threw up a miracle shot with 0.4 left to beat the spurs and everyone complained that it was fixed.It wasn't.It was a miracle shot to end the game.THIS,however,was ridiculous since the refs ignored the timeout and ignored the intentional foul.

naiwf 0 Report post Posted April 30, 2006 This is only the second game the refs have clearly decided the outcome of this postseason (the LeBron shuffle being the other). I'm sure David Stern will tell you that the zebras are doing a great job because they haven't blown all of the other games. I think the bald ref was mad because a Suns player whipped the ball at his face after Nash hit the three with about 45-50 seconds left. They need to get rid of all of the 50+ year olds who have "experience", because they are almost unanimously terrible at their jobs and have been for years.

Guest Felonies! Report post Posted April 30, 2006 Seriously, I know fuck all about basketball, and even I could tell that Nash was fouled there. This league is still a joke. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dangerous A 0 Report post Posted April 30, 2006 Nash shouldn't have coughed the ball up in regulation for there to even be OT. That didn't help matters at all. That last possession before the jump ball was Nash getting jobbed, no doubt. Still, the Suns are done on Tuesday. You're fooling yourself if you think otherwise. The Lakers are going to the WCF at least. I don't think they'll come out of the West entirely this year because I don't think they'll beat the Mavs or Spurs in a series. However, you are smoking much crack if you think these officials and this league will let the Clippers of all teams beat the Lakers. Not going to happen.

naiwf 0 Report post Posted April 30, 2006 Never count out the Lakers real MVP in a close game in crunch time....... Even still Kobe did hit two high pressure shots inside of a second left on the clock in regulation & OT AND the Suns choked up a 5 point lead inside of 10 seconds. Nash got facialed by a Smush three and then fell to the ground when Smush ripped him. If he would have just stood still Parker would have fouled him, but he tried to make a move and fumbled the ball. Phoenix deserved the victory, but they made some bad, bad plays in addition to getting bent over and taking it anally with no lube by the refs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
