yeah if a few calls had gone the other way, they would have lost by 16 or 17 at most.
If I was KG I would have knocked the out of the refs. Each and every one of them. But I guess good teams get good calls.

True. The calls didn't decide the outcome of the game. But KG got ed is what I'm saying.
they definately were letting sheed guard him very tight. some of the blocks could have been fouls, but they seemed to be calling those the same both ways.
Nah. Sheed is no KG and for them to screw KG over, and over, and over, at his house was a weak ass way to ref a game..
But you are Pistons fan so I don't expect you to admit that much.
what does that even mean? I never said sheed was KG, just that the refs were letting him(rasheed) get away with some contact when he guarded him. KG probably could have got them to call it if he'd pushed the issue more, but right now he doesn't seem like he really even wants to be out there.
. In my mind, the refs tried very hard to keep Minny in the game.
Minny sucks, they got owned. I'm not defending them. I'm just defending KG. Now, if that had been Duncan, these boards would be crawling with humid and pissed Spur fans. That's all.
Why should KG have to argue his case? He obviously was so stunned he just felt like, it then.
Did you see Amir Johnson's windmill dunk? Talk about a sick way to score your first career basket!
I never said he should have to argue either, though at least this time you just misunderstood instead of flat out putting words in my mouth. I said he should push the issue, as in, you know, be aggressive.
the funny part is, over on the RealGM boards, the some of the T wolves fans were joking about how one-sided the refs were in Minnesota's favor.
darko started that play....
did either of you see the dunk that Evans got the tech for? horrible camera work there, they didn't even show that end of the court until he was already hanging on the rim.
You obviously just caught the 2nd half. We got a few make ups for a full first half of attrocious calls against us. Someone obviously pointed it out to them at halftime. Either way, this is a 20 point game even if you give Minny every call possible.

And how about Chauncey. 0-8 to start the game for 3 points. In about 15 minutes he hit 6 of 8 threes, a few 2's and ended up with 27 points. He left the game early because it was a blowout at that point. Chauncey outscored the Wolves in the 3rd 18-13.
Amir's windmill was crazy. Mo is an animal. And don't look now, but Darko has hit all 5 of his last 5 shots. 3 of them have been 20 footers. The problem is he's so unselfish, so it looks like he's not "into it" because he likes setting other people up (shows in 5 assists in his last 20 minutes of play).
Darko's last 4 games:
20 minutes, 10 points (5 of 5 FG), 7 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 steal
I think he's earned a few decent minutes.

Um.
I'm talking about KG only.
Not any other player on the court.
You don't give "makeup" calls against the best player on the court in KG. Maybe on Wally or some other scrub but not him.
Detroit waxed them no doubt, but KG got waxed by the refs. And with his mellow I don't give a anymore at ude I bet he demands a trade soon.
OK then, what calls are you talking about? That one travel call was questionable (should have been a no call). What others are you referring to? He didn't even look to attack the basket most of the game. He was shooting jumpers or getting dunks in transition.
Great way to get your 1st Pro points.

Tayshaun got called for a five second call while he was backing down Wally Szczerbiak. I have never seen that call made when the offensive player with the ball actually was making a move towards the basket. On a shortly subsequent play, Tayshaun was called for a walk out of no where.
I know your point is that superstars like KG should get the benefit of the doubt. That just shows your bias towards a "star" dominated league. No player, superstar or not, should be immune to calls or get the majority of the benefit of the calls. I know it happens. I know when Tim Duncan is aggressive to in attacking the rim, he'll get a foul call most of the time, even if it's a 50/50 call. When there is a lot of contact on a block, Ben Wallace will get the benefit of the call when it's 50/50, and the refs will say it's clean ... unless it's against Shaq or Duncan or the like.
But, just because the Pistons, and specifically Rasheed, was a little more physical with Kevin Garnett doesn't mean that KG should just get all the calls. That's bullcrap. Let him get physical and fight back. Make him earn the calls. Like the old cliche, the referees will favor the aggressor. The Pistons were more aggressive at both ends of the floor. When KG got aggressive, he got a few calls.
I don't even understand why this thread was started ...
Man, some of you are just plain ing stupid. Even in a huge win you can't even admit when someone gets screwed. Buncha ing idiots here.
As usual Brutalis resorts to insults and name calling........
I'm still waiting for you to tell me all of these plays that KG got screwed on like you said.
Seemed like a normal NBA game to me...
The best part about the game is when Dupree dunked on McDyess, stole the ball and went for a layup. He went over to the Pistons bench and they were high-fiving and congratulating him
Actually, Dice wasn't in the game, but yea it was pretty funny. Dupree was good friends with them last year before he was traded.The best part about the game is when Dupree dunked on McDyess, stole the ball and went for a layup.

Disagreeing with you makes people F.I.'s? That's a mature take and accurately portrays why you're not among the many insightful and respected Spurs posters in this forum.
I've watched the first 3 quarters.
I've noticed nothing wrong with the refs : as usual some calls aguable but nothing more.
Both teams were cold in the first quarter (Wolves didn't score in the first 5 minutes). Wolves played a good second quarter but Mcdyess did some good post-moves.
Detroit hits its jumpshot in the third quarter and it was game over. When Prince, Sheed, Hamilton and Billups begins to hit 3's and jumpshot, Pistons are almost unbeatable.
Billups was great hiting a three one second after almost loosing the ball and another one with the ball hiting the top of the board.
A thing I really like when I see Pistons and Spurs playing is that they seem happy to play together, the atmosphere in a team is really important when you play 100 games a year.
