    Well this is my first thread and its a great honor to join this forum. The Lakers-Thunder game is currently airing and its seemingly over. I cannot get over the fact of how poorly officiated this game is. Honestly it takes the integrity of basketball away. I am not saying this just because I am a Laker hater, but when the refs have a significant say so in the outcome of the game, it pisses any avid basketball fan off. Hopefully this isn't a sign of things to come. Cheers to a great Spurs-Mavericks series!

    If you thought the refs in Lakers/Thunder were wacky, wait until you see Spurs/Mavs: Where Laughing Can Get You Ejected.

    Welcome to the forums.

    The rebuttal will be that there were a ton of calls against the Lakers for playing reach defense. The fact is this has always been the balance to bad offciating. Call it one way during the game and call it the other during crunch time.

    The NBA is fixed, there's no doubt. Its a corrupt league.

    Dallas has TWICE shot ~ 50 FTs in game one of a series against us, and that was IN SAN ANTONIO. Dirk himself will probably shoot 50 FTs in a Game one in Dallas.

    I agree. Game 1 of the Thunder/Lakers series is a bad portent for how the officiating is going to go in the playoffs.

    Miami went up by 14 against the Celtics, midway though the third quarter. Then the refs got involved. I got so sick of watching it, I had to change the channel. I really don't care which one of those teams wins, and which loses. But I hate to see games decided by officiating. There was no doubt who was going to be allowed to win that game.

    And for those who say that Boston was just more aggressive on defense? It's easy to be aggressive when the refs quit blowing their damned whistles.

    Refing in the NBA has always been questionable but I got to believe that its not fixed... I don't want this to be the WWE.

    We as Spurs fans can NEVER say the NBA is fixed. As much as we want to argue bad calls, we have 4 rings and have twice won the lottery in a year that it truly mattered. There is no way that if the league was fixed a small market team in south texas would have a shot at 4 rings.

    I've believed since the 2008 Hornets series that they fix GAMES, but not series. They'll call a game 7 even.
    The networks don't make enough money on 4-0 and 4-1 series to justify their investment, so with mentally fragile teams like Dallas you have a 18-9 foul deficit and a 19-3 FT deficit to make sure they never fall behind in the series, because they've shown series mental collapse tendencies in the past.

    You watch: Dallas will be up by a comfortable margin late, and they'll start calling some FT fouls on Dallas to make things look a little more even.

    They'll also call a LOT of non-shooting fouls to even that count up.

    Probably when one teams players have to be knocked on the floor and the others have to be lightly touched.
