Hey guys was just browing YouTube, and found a pretty funny video. Its a poor clip, but it shows how wonderful some of our refs really are.

Haha, yeah I've seen that. Funny that Rasho did that in the game yesterday but no one called it. :rofl:

talk about travels, any one see the shot by Cp3 at the end of the 1st quarter? great shot, but 2 steps and then 2 electric slides to the right....
if it were mo pete or a non superstar it would have been called. the nba is a hypocrisy.

Actually the Cp3 call I can see why they let that go....they probably weren't in a position to see it.

The first one though yeah it was pretty bad. Good classic find. No such thing as refs helping the Vegas odds right?

in recent memory, those wade phantom calls in the playoffs are some of the best...

yeah its funny that tim duncan took like 10 baby steps to get to the 3 point line to beat the buzzer.

Also don't forget those 2 quick technical fouls on Duncan while he was on the bench a few years ago in the playoffs.

What's your reasoning behind it other then it was just "hard to notice"? I didnt see the play so I am curious.

These three are pretty awful too (not referee calls though, just thought they were funny)
