Wow. Missed calls on Z-Bo everywhere. Constant moving screens. And you all complain about Golden State. It's a good thing Kawhi is cute or I'd be more pissed than I am now. But seriously, are you guys not seeing bush league no calls?????

You can add your gripe to the petition to remove Reggie from the broadcast.
On our way to a sixth asterisk Championship. I feel terrible about it.
In before the.....?
Your thread title is misleading considering you are the one and only Richard simmons. I was thinking you had a glory hole lined up in the ref locker room.
Home cooking IMO.
Don't worry. Refs will fuck us next series
You paid me $100 to go drill it for you. That darn selective amnesia seems to be kicking in. Don't sweat it. It will come back.
Its honestly bizarre. Its not like it would matter, but the refs are really hurting the grizlies.
Such is life.
The refs just want this series to be over too.
Lol! How can you respond to anyone that calls themselves Richard Simmons?
The refs were surprisingly kind to the Spurs, tbh..I thought Memphis would get more calls in this series to make it more "fair", but I guess the refs just want to the series to be over quickly, as zosa said:lol
Yeah the refs were pretty bad, on both ends!
Lets see how they are in Memphis.
Refs missed a couple calls in the early going (The loose ball foul on Farmar and the slap on Zbo's arm). These calls were after the announcers were desperately seeking calls for the game to remain close. They're talking about how they should get calls cos they're physical; and how they have been? Yea, but why would the Spurs need to foul much? No high-low with Gasol and Z-Bo. No penetration by a Conelly. The Grizzlies offense was very easy to keep in check without fouling much.
The refs don't want to see the series over quickly. They get paid by the game. And getting the Spurs eliminated would get them more games than they would have gotten, tbh; yes, the NBA has a you rub my back, I'll rub your back system. But these refs know Memphis is a lost cause. They're not bothering to try to cheat in the hopes that they can lose by only single digits.
Z-bow is a dirty player and does not deserve any foul calls. Also his undersized post game does not work against a team with our size, and combined with declining skills makes for the ugly result we are seeing from him. The refs only gave him a few sympathy calls, at most 1-2 were probably legit fouls.
This is nothing new, once we started playing Splitter more (and now replaced with Aldridge), Z-bow could not do a damn thing against the Spurs. Did you really expect him to keep making those BS fadeway 3 PT and other long jumpers like he did in 2011?!?!
ROFL
Is this part of the whole grit and whine style?
I thought we had a lot of calls on our side. I think they may be doing that during a series we'd win regardless, so they can screw us over against GSW and say it just evened out.
The griz want to play rough and physical on defense, but want calls for the Spurs playing the same way back???
I like how the announcers whined about ZBo not getting FTAs in his last 5 games then tried to blame the Spurs getting ref help as the cause even though they only played the Spurs once and the Warriors twice in those 5. . . while SA is 28th in FTAs shot. So much ref help tbh, being at the bottom of the league in FTAs every season for over half a decade.
