Out of all the major US sports, the referring in the NBA is the worse

Posted by tRuMaN (aka Truman) May 27 '10, 07:41

maybe worse than all the others combined.

from the patented pierce lean-in-shoot-foul, to the you-grazed-kobe-thats-a-foul, to the howard-never-gets-called-for-goaltending, etc.

the list of the stupid, idiotic, missed, flagrant that werent called, etc is amazing.

beyond all other sports, there really is a double standard in fouls when you compare the superstars and the regulars.

I don't understand what you are referring to. - zork May 27, 07:53 1

It's pretty telling when a ref gets busted for fixing games and no one is shocked. - Will Hunting May 27, 07:50 4
- because the fans love seeing their superstar break the rules and get away with it. - tRuMaN May 27, 07:51 2
  - Or that most people already are conditioined to the league being rigged. - Will Hunting May 27, 07:52 1
    - hmm, true -- nm - tRuMaN May 27, 07:54

They should just let Howard walk around with brass knuckles and be done with it. - Mel Profit May 27, 07:45 2
- to be honest, if the second Technical was for real on perkins, i cannot see how - tRuMaN May 27, 07:48 1
  - He's a charismatic start...Perkins isn't. Thus your answer. -- nm - Will Hunting May 27, 07:51
any League you can bet on based on who is referring and be almost guaranteed to win is a joke League. -- nm - Beaker May 27, 07:44 1
