This reffing is unbelievable.

No, they chose to promote it instead. Fan-tastic.

Don't you mean "Faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan-(unless you're rooting for the Toronto Raptors)-tastic"?

Not according to the rules, it is not.

He stepped out of bounds and was the first to touch the ball, I don't think that's legal.

Unless if it's against the Raptors, then the rulebook gets thrown out the window.

Frustrating part that if it was somebody else then Ginobili it probably woulda been called. I could not believe with how many fouls Duncan got away vs Raptors, even in first quarter those two initial drives by Jonas and Bargnani should have resulted in two fouls and he would be riding pine rest for the quarter, instead he got credited for steal and block. That's why he hated playing in FIBA tournaments as he was called for everything. Typical NBA star treatment.

People are quick to dismiss wrongdoings by referees as shown here, but in reality...they are not calling the game as the rulebook states.

[david5773]

Nevermind thought it was the play when JV touched it with fingertips and they said spurs ball, which was right

[ATLTimekeeper]

The ref could not have been closer, although I guess it's hard to see where a player's feet are when they're behind you.

"What? Derozan gets mugged by 3 guys the ball ends up shooting nowhere near the net and he falls down on the floor?
Play on!"
"Player X, double dribbled, traveled, and pushed off Bargnani with his forearm and scored? No call, just poor defense from Bargnani."
"Oh you put your hands on Brook Lopez? Foul on Valaciunas!"
"Oh you were clearly above the restricted area, with your feet set and firmly in position? Blocking foul on Lowry"

[FluLikeSymptoms]

I thought this would be about the time not being added to .1 after the timeout.

I wonder if the Raps' bench caught this and yelled.

3 consecutive game with big time, clear Violations not called.

MKG fouls Bargs not called- 1 point loss
Drummond offensive cylinder- momentum swing, 1 point loss
Manu steps out- momentum swing 2OT loss

Wasn't the reasoning that was given was that time can't be added to the clock unless the time runs to 0 first? Something ridiculous like that

Just figured this thread needed a bump after tonight's fiasco.
