Will WarriorRef step up if neccessary?

[Fabbs]

Even if the Pels win Game 4, it's still an even 2-2 with the Golden Phaggots having home court in the Gay Area with all the amenities most of their players like for games 5 and 7. So in that respect, maybe no real urgency for the NBA to rig todays Game 4.

OTOH, does the NBA want to in any way jeopardize their preferred showcasing of Golden vs the Frauden Rockets.
Plus, with the Rockets series in all likelihood ending 4-1 soon, doesn't Silver and Co. want to make sure Kevin Durant and Stephon, Donkey etc have multiple cozy nights rests before facing the Rockets?

Might not matter, Golden may simply beat New Orl fair and square today.

But i predict any semblence of a Pelicans upset and look for WarriorRef to swing today.
You?

Another shit take by the same shit poster. What the fuck do you think will happen?

Warrior Ref are doing all they can up to this point. Luckily the Pels have scrapped off one win so far. When the Pels win today, the Warrior refs will be in full force game 5 just like they did for the Lakers in game 6 against the Kings.

Historically it tends to be the case that media popular teams tend to get special treatment in crucial games. I don't think Pels will win today but if they do it wouldn't surprised me if they get a lot of rigged calls against them in Oakland.

Step up? Have you seen the free throw stats through the first 3 games? I can’t see how they can step up more than they already have.

Who knew "light years ahead of the league" meant refs are bought and paid for. NBA will always protect their sacred cash cows in California.

Yep
32-11
27-9
26-12 a game the Pels led by 20 most of the 2nd half as if they are going to foul and stop the clock up 20.
85 - 32

Didn't watch but a few minutes and distracted at that.
Not happy the Pels bombed, but am happy the game was unrelated to WarriorRef.

Anyone who has legitimately followed the league since David Stern first made commissioner. Hell, he had his company men getting a shitty Knicks team to 7 against Bird's big 3 in the 84 ECF. Yes, apparently the geographically built-in Lakers-Knicks was even more valuable than the once in a lifetime Magic-Bird rivalry.
