It's all refereeing. Look at the discrepancy in fouls. 15-8, with an Finals MVP, All Star, and perennial all NBA defender getting hit with two very questionable calls.

His averages for the series will probably look decent and people will argue whether he's a playoff performer or not. He can and has put together some very good games in the playoffs, but it's his stinkers that stick out in people's memories.

Every. Single. Fan. Complains. All fans. From all teams.

Raptor fans do not have a monopoly on moaning about officiating. Read game threads and see for yourself.

I’m guessing the second foul when he whined? Because the first one was a clear push off by Ross.


Ya when he fouled DJ going up for a layup in transition. It was a clear foul and Lowry acted like it was the worst call in the world.

I also don't think the first one was a foul either. But I also can't blame the refs on that one because of how often Lowry is flopping all over the place.

The Danny Green "fouls" were some horrific calls.

15 fouls against the raptors 8 against the magic. Come again? Ya'll complain about us whining but wanna gloss over the fact that the raptors might just be getting hosed?

Great logic.

It's better logic than the refs being against you because you're in the country just north of us. . . .

Mine is based on facts and numbers.


Where's the insinuation that being Canadian is a factor? The refs could just be having a bad game in which the Magic are the beneficiary.

Stop it, I read the Raptors forum more than any other outside of the Magic. I know you guys have a conspiracy theory about not getting calls because you guys are North of the border. Which is false btw. I still remember the game you guys got 41-9 ft's and thought you should've had more. :lol:

This is the most Lowry has scored in a playoff game since April 23 , 2007 when he scored 14ppg against the Mavericks

You know what's more insane? Taking the reaction of a few people and using that to generalize across a fan base of hundreds of thousands.

That's far more insane, IMHO.

Its funny when the TNT crew mentions multiple calls against the raptors as bad and you guys still talking like the people complaining are being absurd. :)

Our fan base is full of very emotional people who are fickle about every little thing and often miss the big picture. I hate it, but hey it’s my team so I’ll deal with it

entitlement much? Also, lol at the all nba defender thing - he hasn't been a good defender in years. Kawhi has been on reputation since he got DPOY.

I mean, there were absolutely conspiracy posts in the Toronto forum. We're definitely the beneficiary of calls, but come the **** on. It's not because we're the Orlando Magic. Maybe it's something personal between Marc Davis and a player or something. :lol:

That being said, seeing my team **** over by fouls throughout the years.. I'll take it.

You guys reach a lot. Isn't that part of what makes your defense great? Also, Steve Clifford has told the Magic to never foul, even if that means you allow a layup. That's a part of his coaching philosophy.

So now, my question to you is, do you think you get screwed cause you're teams in Canada?
