Mike Monroe is an award winning writer but he's hands down the worst at asking questions. His questions are moronic but he's hardly alone. I think Pop is a prick in press conferences and interviews but I kind of understand his frustration at times.
** Fizzdale went nuts & cried about the refs. I've never seen a coach hand his players and coaching staff an excuse like that for a loss. To the players' credit, they weren't whining like him. There may have been some validity to what he said but you don't panic and cry like that. You should come out and play with that same intensity the next time and force the refs to make calls. The Spurs held court, that's it. That's a rookie coach right there. "They" didn't give our guys a chance. Sheesh, that's weak. Welcome to the NBA Fizz.
I been watching the NBA since 2001 and this was the worst officiated game ive seen since sacramento got all the calls against the lakers in game 5 2002
spurs and rockets depend on refs more than anybody in the west lmao kawhi gets phantom fouls like harden all game
Phil Jackson on many occasions blamed the refs after a playoff loss. Doc Rivers claimed the refs cost the Clippers game 5 against the Spurs in '15. Last year Billy Donovan screamed that his team lost game 3 against the Spurs because of the refs. I have seen this bs played out so many times before. It's always a desperate move by a coach when he knows his team is in trouble. A lot of times it pays off like it did with Rivers and Donovan.
I was cracking up during his whole tirade. He understands Kawhi got to the line because of his aggressiveness right?
LMAO, oh ok well that explains things.
ask suns fans and lakers fans about spurs getting calls and theyll tell you all about it lmao
only thing that scares me about the spurs
Spurs have been screwed plenty of times, and in bigger games than this one. Shut the up. Don't post here, no-one's going to agree with anything you say.
Um..... you? Your team depends on calls more than any team in history. Lol that the spurs depend on them. They never get them so......yeah... you.
lmao when have spurs ever been screwed?? show me proof
Tim Donaghy literally admitted he rigged games for the spurs
Kobe is the 2nd best player ever and he never got the calls that Autist gets lmao
If he can't handle this there's no way he can handle the second round against the rockets or okc
I used to think Spurs fans were above homerism (which ironically is a homer take in and of itself) but it seems like that's not the case. 2012 Spurs/OKC Game 6 was one of the worst officiated games of all time in favor of OKC (as one example). 2017 Spurs/Grizzles Game 2 was one of the worst officiated games of a ll time in favor of the Spurs. Overall in the last 5 years the bulk of terrible officiating has probably gone in favor of a couple of teams, including but not limited to OKC, but just call a spade a spade.
These guys can't handle the Spurs getting some calls in one game.
LOL. Imagine how wits like Benoit would go if the Spurs got these calls all season long like the Warriors (illegal screens, Draymond and others allowed to foul and maul players on defense) and teams like the Rockets get (Harden free throws).
lmao go watch spurs games from the 2000s where bruce bowen was allowed to kick and punch players without getting fouls called on him
Kobe still busted his ass tho
lol Benoit has to be the best troll on this board since... I don't even know.
His is so blatantly obvious trolling, yet people actually take him srsly.
It's hilarious, tbh.
Obviously you haven't watched many games since 2001. You may have started watching then, but you haven't watched many of those games. There's no need for me to show or tell you . I don't give a crap about wasting my time to appease a troll.
The reality is that they know they can't guard Kawhi without fouling, tbh... all they have is old Vince Carter to throw at him, just not fair... just hope Kawhi doesn't get hurt in Memphis, tbh
Kobe literally was a dirty ing player.![]()
Everyone has ignored him for weeks now. Wtf are you smoking.![]()
Fckn Zack Randolph was shooting jumpers...
Holy .
$$$$$$
The warriors do get away with blatant moving screens all the time. Your arguments from hypocrisy are weak. Just call a spade a spade.
Spurs are probably average or below average when it comes to benefiting from terrible reffing based on a variety of metrics but really just careful analysis of each and every play, but the fact that you think the Spurs only got "some" calls in this game suggests to me that you're incapable of providing an unbiased opinion on reffing especially when it goes against your team.
And the refs literally rigged the kings lakers series.![]()
lmao ya thats what i thought
your reply was softer than Jim Duncans around a naked woman
At least he didn't complain about the officiating. I don't recall him complaining about it much or about physical play. Do you guys recall him doing so?
