IT WAS AN OBVIOUS TACTICAL FOUL
MY MOTHER WOULDA SEEN THAT
WHAT THE FUCK?!?!?!
IM DONE WITH THIS LEAGUE
-
i was hoping it was going to to a game 6 or 7
-
in two minds about this. yeah it was a foul, but im pretty sick of it how teams always foul constantly in the last few minutes of the game to keep players going to the free throws
either way, dallas isn't winning this series

they had a foul to give, and it wasnt even a shooting foul
-
I would agree they got robbed but they blew the game themselves
they wouldn't have been in that situation had they not missed free throws down the stretch
also Dirk had a good game but he's fuckin sorry, in the last couple minutes he took like 6 of the dumbest (crucial) shots
he's so terrible in crunch time
-
disappointing on how they got robbed
-
that was kinda gay yeah... o well... can't wait for the lakers - nuggets match up.

Premise: 7even i know you are mad. I ain't referring to you now, cause if i was you now i was extremely mad and disappointed too. Shit happens. Anyway... What Carlise had in his fucking mind? They were +2 with 6-7 seconds left AND...?? You say Wright to foul Melo? A guy who was shooting .930% from the F.T.? That shit was dumb, for real! If Wright defended well without trying to foul Melo the game was over with Melo shooting an off balanced shot. Instead he made a free jumper. Moronic. Anyway you make an intentional foul if you are +3, not +2. Yes, it was a (tactical) foul. But still.. let's blame 70% the refs and 30% Carlise and Wright (damn, hit his hands better, moron!). +3 with 6-7 seconds left you can't let Melo shoot free from 3points. You can't.

I didn't watch the game but didn't Mavs have a foul to give? I was under the impression that they did, but if not, then I retract my statement. It's still complete incompetence on the refs' part, but it doesn't look as suspect as I had thought.

Still a nice shot..series is over..didn't expect this (3-0) :-X

they had a foul to give and wright clearly ran into him twice on the dribble before he even shot, honestly i dont think they would of called anything unless melo got socked

They had a foul to give Antonio.. of course you stop the clock before they shoot, so they only have a couple seconds to execute again... and THEN you defend properly. it's basic basketball that you foul in that situation, and it always gets called cause the refs know that you are going to foul... it's beyond suspect. Wright is a moron too, for fouling him soft like that and then just stopping and letting him shoot, that was retarded. But he's a young player.
-
they should replay this last possession .. the NBA is disgusting with all these soft calls , suspensions and mistakes ...

Yeah that's what I had thought, the refs are pathetic then. What the fuck has happened with officiating these days? It was never great, but I mean, after the Tim Donaghy scandal, you wouldn't think the referees could get this much worse.
-
yeah that was a big "slap back" to the mavs and then the vp says they are sorry or some shit
you see cuban on the floor lookin lost but he was goin loco see him say "horseshit"?
-
They had a foul to give Antonio..
Oh, that changes everything. I only watched the highlights. Ok, the refs fucked it up.
-
I dont give a fuck about the Mavs with the way they were getting free fouls throughout the game they deserved to lose. Obviously Denver is the better team
-
Dallas got screwed so bad.
I love Basketball but honestly a lot of the time I feel like I should stop watching because the officiating is so damn suspect.
-
Dallas did have a foul-to-give, and that was suspect that they didn't call it. But they could have been smarter, you can tell the refs you intend to foul, and still play defense just in case, or even better, wrap him up on the foul so he can't get free or shoot. Wright did have 5 fouls so I maybe the refs didn't think that he would foul, but that was really suspect. I don't like Dallas, but I did want to see a close series and I do feel bad for them, they have been on the wrong side of some ref controversy.

they should replay this last possession ..
the NBA seems to be playing yall for fools...last year they re-played the closing minutes of a meaningless regular season game between Miami and Atlanta because they accidentally said Shaq fouled out with 5 fouls. LMAO...but when shit like this happens that could determine the outcome of a teams season they just let it go.....even after they admit they fucked up!
LMAO@the NBA...no doubt in my mind that refs are still fuckin up......intentionally.
