As if the warriors aren’t the best assembled team of all stars already the refs feel the need to help them out, absolutely amazing!

I seen all complaing over calls by the refs (different I know) but, NBA has fallen out of favor in my household (a bunch of thugs IMO).

Have to agree there are many thugs but there are good players and people as well. For all the Draymond Greens there are 3 really good guys, imo

Its the NBA....they've had the worse officiating of any major pro sport as long as I've been alive.

Agreed - How does it get officiated?

NBA is not basketball.

Snipe - Agree, just thugs trying to make a living!

I'm a high school basketball official(local chapter rules interpreter) and former softball official. Most sports, the officials aspire to do the big leagues...not so much in basketball, most want to get into D1 college level as that seems to have more prestige and is still basketball.

Quit crying. If it wasn't for the refs they wouldn't have made it past the Pacers🤣

Sorry (imo) Scott - LeBron (hate to say) is one of the best. Just another individual that couldn't flip a burger, is the "king".

they weren't robbed..they didn't show up in OT

Robbed, their sail was deflated by the pro refs, shouldn’t have been an overtime. Does anyone on here, especially the Cavs haters, believe Tristen should have been immediately ejected for whatever that clown thought he saw?

The action happens so fast and I am amazed the refs correctly call what they do call. They miss calls on both sides but it is only the losing team that complains. I get it. Kristen Thompson shouldn't have been ejected from what I think I saw, but it didn't make a difference in this game. Draymond Green is an idiot but a decent ball player.

It was a Great Game til the O.T. But Refs are Refs. They call it as they see it. But my question is, for whatever reason did J.R. Smith run away from the basket when he could of easily threw in the winning shot then all the Cav fans would be happy right now. All in all I don't watch the NBA til the Playoffs cause I like to watch the best players play. And last nite, I got to see just that, especially Lebron.

LeBron pushes off all the time and it never gets called. Make two foul shots and it most likely doesn't go into overtime.

Ha ha I opened this thread because I thought the op
Got his calves stolen! I didn't even know People still
Watched the NBA

I don't know who I like less - (Lebron or Curry). Or what they stand/or don't for.

And do you like Draymond green more than those two? I actually get the LeBron hate it’s because he knows the game so well that he needs to play thru the no calls rather than become a whiny Lil. However, I am from akron and my business is 2 miles from his house. I can honestly say he is a better person than he is a player. He does so much for our city and kids it’s sick. But haters gonna hate, I get it

Did the refs make the guy making 12 million a year miss a free throw? Didn’t think so.

WHOA don't give him grief. If he had missed the first one Cavs would have lost in REG. ANY free throw missed during the game would have won when the game was tied after reg........

LeBron was moving when Durant collided with him. The replay was to determine if LeBron was in the restricted zone. The real question is, can the officials overturn a non-reviewable play (a charging foul) while checking on the restricted zone violation?
LeBron is a whiny baby who acts like he has been shot in the guts whenever he is fouled and hits the deck, then right after that, he is Superman instantly.
J.R. Smith was either high, or he should have toked one up at half time to maintain his buzz.

Apparently according to the NBA can review LGP(legal guarding position) if there is an RA review

The losers always get robbed

Basketball and soccer players are the highest paid actors on the planet.

Lebron will go down as one of the all time whiners

I'm not a sports fan but i'm standing behind Lebron. He's one (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman) of a good guy. very humble person. say what you will but Lebron has donated/built and dedicated his time and money to the town he grew in. there isn't enough memory here to describe what he's done for our communities.

jim, Cleveland Ohio

If Smith would’ve just dunked the ball this thread wouldn’t exist. The Cavs didn’t get robbed, they gave it away. The best players always get leniency it seems on calls. I can’t hardly stand to watch the game now. I miss the 80’s teams and players, Celtics, Sixers, Lakers and Pistons.

As far as LeBron off the court and giving back to the community. Good on him. Remember though, when a person has that much money, they most likely have got to make so much in monetary donations for the tax right off. Hate to see what he would have to pay in interest on his money without the donations. Everyone here on T-man could probably retire comfortably on it.

I do not watch basketball but if a Cleveland team of any sport loses that's a good day for me. Personal reasons, but I will just say I got financially shafted by a Cleveland politician's use of the crooked Cleveland court system. It really put it into perspective for me how much a politician can twist the legal system to cost you a fortune in legal fees while costing him (them) nothing, and how a case that has no merit whatever can eat up almost all your retirement savings fighting it.
