There was also another rebound in the 4th where Tristan Thompson hit Marcus Morris's wrist to knock the ball loose to Kevin Love for an offensive rebound.

This was the most frustrating play for me the whole game and I'm not sure how more people didn't pick up on it. Irving took 4-5 steps on that half court shot, biggest load of BS!

its okay because Harris shuffled his feet almost every time he touched the ball. How they didn't call it after the 4th or 5th time was beyond me.

Let's not go down the road of "it's the refs" please.

We were the #8 seed - you ain't getting calls!

That's the way the world works and no amount of whining is gonna change it.

Use it to fuel next season! Command respect! Better yet earn it!

How many of our players know every refs first name? Start with that.

Next step is know their wives names or husbands!

That way you can "build" a "personal" relationship with them

Anyone that thinks it won't work has never managed people! It doesnt matter if I actually care about you - what matters is that YOU think I do!

I'm not blaming the refs for the loss, we had several opportunities to close the game and we didn't, that shot is just salt in the wound though. It really, REALLY infuriates me when refs allow violations to occur when it's supposed to be the best league in the world. A travel is taking more than two steps, Irving took 4-5. How many times has Greek freak travelled using his Euro step this season? I don't care for the reason, but missing basic calls like travelling is a stain on the game and a mockery. If the NBA is the best league, it needs to reflect such in its officiating and ensure the most fundamental rules of the game are enforced.
