    And where in there did he complain of the officiating of any of the Memphis games or the first game of the series or this game? Nowhere. He has a blog talking about having the best officials on the floor for the playoffs. thats it.
    Why would he complain about the officiating in the Memphis series? and look in the archives, you asked for the link I gave it to you, you do the work.

    I see alot of level-headed Spurs in here, so this may not be directed at you.

    If ALL those bad calls werent in fact called, you would have only lost by 10.

    Happy now?

    Spurs stunk it up. Game 3 will be different.

    That's fair enough. The Spurs DID stink it up. No ball movement on offense, no play running, just get the ball to Tim and let him slow down the offense. I think you are just about right on where we would have ended up if the game had been called better. We didn't deserve to win, but we deserved to have a better-officiated game.

    Completely agreed. Like I said in another thread, I dont think SA will play another game like this for the entire playoffs. They may not win this series, or even a championship, but it wont be because of officiating or poor play.

    Cuban freely admitted he whines.
    Now that I own the Mavs, I whine about a lot of things in the NBA, from marketing to officials, which has led to change.
    And the article on the officials was posted the day after game 1, why would he bother complaining about the Memphis series that the Mavs swept. The official article was prewritten and posted when he felt the need to whine.

    Please. again, show me the line where he complained about the officials, Where he blatantly called out a ref in a game. He doesn't do that anymore. And the whole entire premise of the blog he wrote specifically goes into detail of how he wants veteran officials calling games, not rookie refs. So if that is complaining, then yes he did. But I am sure you would agree that you would want veterans officiating games.

    i think nick van exel throwing the towel was a tiny bit drastic considering he didnt throw it at anybody or that the play wasnt close to that place. the towel landed off the court...but eh nick wanted out anyways. im surprised no one's said anything about ginobili's face foul to harris.. poor manu had to go get his face fixed and that was an AND ONE lol. i think manu will bounce back though

    There's a reason coaches about the refs through the media: it works.

    Stop starting threads about the same subject.

    There's enough officiating threads.

    Look around to the other threads before posting.

    And the Spurs players and coach during the game don't either. When was the last report from Cuban in the papers of him ing publicly about officiating. Could you post that for me?

    I personally have not read about him in the papers, but I was at Game 1 and watched him walk out onto the court during a timeout and proceed to have a very vocal and "gesturative" argument with a FAN sitting on the other side of the court. That's worse than any overly-edited story that's been published.

    This thread was initially talking about the total number of free throws, not the disparity. This had been said numerous times but bears repeating. The majority of the fans are not blaming the loss on the refs. They are complaining about the quality of the officiating.

    And also, did you read my Post, I said recently. Has he complained recently. Like he did in 02-03. no, he has learned to be quite.
    I read your post. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but this is the first time you said recently. Originally you just asked for the last time which he provided.

    And the Spurs players and coach during the game don't either. When was the last report from Cuban in the papers of him ing publicly about officiating. Could you post that for me?

    I think that would be considered recently.

    Not to argue, but no. Would you consider the last ice age recent? It was the last one.

    I don't play much with the big boys (and girls) of this forum regarding basketball knowledge, I don't pretend to have that level of understanding. But I do read the posts and will advise that if you're going to have a discussion with them, argue points worth making. That's all I'm getting at. With that, welcome to the forum

    And that is exactly what I did. He has not made any recent comments about the officiating. And no one has posted anything to refute that at this time.

    And if you would actually read the previous posts made by myself and other members, you would know that this article talks about having veteran officails calling the games, not rookie refs. It is not a call out of any refs. Please read before posting. And yeah, read that article.

    Excuse me, I was just reading your most recent post saying ..

    He has not made any recent comments about the officiating.
    I'm not going to read this whole stupid thread.

    Everyone knows Cuban whines about the officiating.

    Everyone knows that the officiating didn't cost the Spurs the game last night.

    Everything Cuban writes is whining.

    I like him a lot, but even he knows he's a whiner.

    I think AHF has a valid point. It's good that most of you don't like to make excuses, but don't turn a blind eye to what's in front of you

    officiating may not have cost the spurs the game

    but it cost the fans who were wanting to watch a good game of basketball

    They paid good money to see it also.

    I love going to Spurs games regardless if they win or not. However, I'd avoid paying money for an NBA game with Javie or Salvatore as the refs. Unfortunately, the NBA keeps the iden y of the refs secret until game time. Thank goodness I didn't waste my money on that "basketball" game last night.
