I only started watching at the end of the third. The refs were ridiculous both ways.
The Spurs were trying to give it away all by themselves.
OMG. We nearly lost cause the damn refs were making ridiculous calls at the end. Late whistle on Bowen for a questionable foul on Rip. But that call to give Detroit a time out when Billups didnt have posession of the ball was really ridiculous. I mean he threw the ball away and then made the sign.
At least Manu made amends for that stupid turnover by icing free throws to win the game. If not we would be cursing the damn refs again.

San Antonio got the favorable whistle for the first 3.5 quarters, and then Detroit got it down the stretch. Horrible officiating both ways.
No need to overreact, though. The refs didn't determine the outcome of the game.
The Refs were horrible all game. Even Elliott started mentioning it.
Questionable foul? Bowen practically knocked him over... If that was TP, you'd be begging for a flagrant.
You're begging for the flagrant, dude.

Pop had some dumb rotations in that fourth quarter and he is damn lucky Bowen stopped everyone all by himself.
Refs sucked on both sides, but they didn't almost lose the game for the Spurs.
Did u guys see the charge Rip took against Brent? omg it's air contact and definitely the worst of flops =(!!!
I can only imagine what this board would be life if you actually beat the Mavs this year.
Refs had some pretty poor calls both ways all night long. Rasheed did far less than Tony Parker and Elson when arguing calls to get a technical foul. Rasheed also didn't get a to the hoop call when he got fouled on a fade-away jumper. Duncan got a couple of chippies as well with very minimal contact.
Chauncey and Rip both had a few flops in the game, I'll admit that. But, Chauncey's big flop on the 3 pointer, well, he didn't get a call. Chauncey is very adept at drawing body contact fouls when he's just dribbling the ball. And, we all know Manu has been notorious for exaggerating contact throughout his career. The few games I've watched, it looks as though he's not as big a flopper now, but plenty of players do it.
? What were they and what would have been more advisable in your judgment?Pop had some dumb rotations in that fourth quarter and he is damn lucky Bowen stopped everyone all by himself.
Expand and elaborate.
oh, well there you go
You know youll never get that answer.
Short thinks John Lucas is a better coach.
on the flip side, this thread is a preview of what it will be like if the spurs don't beat the mavs
no I will not stop posting that.
spurs almost screwed up the texas-trampling of the pistons.
watch a game.
Anyone else yell 'BALL DON'T LIE!' after Rip missed those 2 FTs?
You think he is bad....try having to listen to George Blaha.oh, well there you go
elliott is just the ultimate homer and i can't stand him but obviously that's because i don't root for the spurs...i totally see why spurs fans like him
you're right, blaha is just downright terrible, no which ways about it
To be fair....Elliott is just as quick to rip a Spur as he is to praise him.
there is homer all over tonight, the spurs almost lost another homegame on a soldout friday night..
they showed up for the first quarter and then got their asses kicked. thanks to bonner they won...
Blaha tries to disguise his homerism most of the time. But, it's definitely there. It's more noticeable for people who aren't Pistons fans, just like Sean Elliot's homerism is more noticeable to non Spurs fans. Blaha is an acquired taste. He's pretty good if you've followed the Pistons long enough.
I don't think anyone tops the Chicago Bulls' TV guys in terms of an over-the-top homerism call of a game.
Actually I called Elliott a homer as well.just like Sean Elliot's homerism is more noticeable to non Spurs fans
Well, when Blaha said that Bowen "punched" Rip at the end of the game to send him to the line...that is when hit mute.
