wow… amazing how they took so long to review our call and as soon as they reviewed the portland one it was like, "yeah for sure clear path…" man **** that ****… also amazing how lowry drives into traffic every single possession and NOT ONCE is he fouled… NOT ONCE… wow… every close game against good teams, refs continue to **** us over… bull calls all around… how is it not a clear path when kyle lowry is ON THE OTHER END OF THE COURT WAITING FOR THE **** BASKETBALL… THAT'S AN EASY BASKET… THAT'S THE DEFINITION OF A CLEAR PATH, WHEN THE PLAYER IS AHEAD OF THE D AND IT WILL LEAD TO AN EASY BASKET… man **** this bull reffing, **** it all… nba is rigged, we'll never win a **** championship with these screw job cocksucking crooked **** playing the spread… **** nba refs… you should all be fired… **** reviewing a play every two seconds… bull. NO FOULS FOR US UNTIL THE LAST **** LOWRY PLAY… ridiculous.

Great game by the Raptors. They're making sure the entire league knows who they are. Some poor coaching and questionable calls from the 4th on, cost he Raptors the game.

Still, this team is showing that they're up there with the elite teams.

I also agree with this. The entire team hardly touched the ball. Plus he choked. On top of that the refs were sketchy as hell....bad combo. I would also love to see one other play be called at the end of a shot clock. This is a hunch....but I think the other team knows you're going iso

Clear path? I agree... I mean damn, both were clear paths, plus if Raps get there call, Blazers prolly ain't get in position to get there's... In OT, refs played a big part in the loss, but over the course of the game we can't blame the refs... Raps had a nice 13 point lead at one point, it wasn't the refs fault they lost it.

Overall Raps played really nice tho...

I generally don't complain about refereeing. It's not something that teams can control.

However, this game was brutal - nothing more brutal than the no-clear-path call on Ross vs. clear-path call for Batum.

And that's not including the incredible violence inflicted upon JV all game, none of which the refs called.

It was fun to watch the Raps compete against a good team and nearly win (w/out Demar), but tough to not pull your hair out due to awful refereeing.

Vasquez is awful I want him off the team

Lou feels like a net of nothing because half the time he's missing everything

Ross needs to hit shots

Lowry was playing hero ball again. Your J isn't falling, give it up. We need to stop relying on jumpers in the clutch. This is what is going to kill us in the playoffs

People are just complaining about refs like that's the sole reason why we lost,

please explain to me why a defensive-minded coach doesn't play his best defensive player in the 4th, who mind you, was arguably our best player tonight (James Johnson) instead goes for an offensive-minded player, whom really sucked on offense tonight (Lou Willams).

i am way more concerned about typical casey blunders rather than the refs.

I am so confused about what the rule is for clear path foul now.

Casey needs to take a fine after this. It's all on him. Just man up and rip into them during that post game media scrum.

3 consecutive fouls on us, early in the fourth determined the 4th. Clear path bull determined OT.

Casey needed to put JV and JJ earlier in the 4th

It shouldnt have even been close. we blew a decently sized lead at the end. Kyle Had plenty of chances to tie or take the lead and didn't make those shots

The Vasquez foul was definitely a clear path. Just because Leo Rautins is an idiot and doesn't know what a clear path foul is doesn't make it not true.

Guys, the refs again?

Lemme bring you back to stats -

Vasquez: 5-13, 3PT 2-7, 13 PTS
Williams: 1-10, 3PT 0-5, 7 PTS

I know Vasquez may have issues with the fam back home but he's still chucking when he should be passing. Almost ALL OUR LOSSES ARE BECAUSE OF THESE 2 GUYS.

- Casey continuing to rely on lineups that DO NOT work against playoff teams in a playoff setting. USE YOUR DAMN CENTER!


I don't even know how to react to such a dumb statement.
