He cant accept that other teams can't beat his team, so he blames the refs


Spurs just handed the Lakers a good old fashioned beatdown; the officiating was fair

i'm glad he called out the refs. every other team in the league gets prefernial treatment on their home court. but salvatore and tony brothers had to call bs calls on us and give the game away. pinochioo got the line more times than pau and kobe combined. kobe and pau were hacked and smacked and no call instead they called bs travels on kobe which the commentors even said were bull and what about the manu ginobili 8 second violation no call and the blair tapping it out of bounce on the jump ball and it remains spurs ball.

the spurs havent gotten home cookin since the whole Crawford incident a few years ago. in fact, since that game agains the Mavs, the Spurs have had deal with some really bad officiating, directed towards them.

why is Phil complaining, Manu got a T also. It was a double T. It isn't the Spurs fault that Ron punked out and lost his composure. Manu let it go and kicked butt. Artest let it linger and struggled the remainder of the game...Artest pulled a Dwight Howard and it cost his team.

Instead of blaming the refs, maybe Phil should blame his MVP for chucking stupid shots, while his Center was abusing the Spurs defense all game. IMO, Gasol should have seen the ball on every possession in the 2nd half, especially since the Spurs defense had no answer for him.
