Another accomplishment for this great player.

Someone on another board was kind enough to put up links to the three terrible calls that cost the Pacers the game.

The Tinsley foul was the worst, just horrible.

Yup, downright pathetic. Don't know what the hell was up with those refs tonight.

More like whats up with the refs every night. The absurd inconsistency is baffling me. Depending on what crew, what mood they are in, what day of the week it is, that seems to determine which way a call goes half the time.

The offensive foul call has turned into the plague of the league. Sometimes offensive players can use their off-arm, sometimes they cant. Sometimes a player can push off a defender, sometimes they cant.

Then Stern whines about scoring problems.

Well Instead of cracking down on the flops for one, the league has told the refs to start calling defenders stopping penetration to the basket. Problem is the consistency. Some refs are all over it, some refs are all over it for 1 half, then ignore it in the 2nd half.

So now we have more free throws then ever, scoring is not improving and who is the big loser in this?

The fans.

The worst was the flagrant, because it wasn't close to be a flagrant foul. Sure if no one was looking and you heard the fall to the ground, and saw Josh Davis laying down stomach first on the ground.

While the refs were terrible on those three plays, it wasn't like those were the only three bad calls the made in the game.

The only buzzer beater I remember was from last summer against Germany in a pre-tourney, from half court or so. Iverson threw a rainbow and the ball went in without touching the rim. Very sick even if the game didn't count.

yup I remember that, the game was on ESPN and it blacked out right when USA inbounded the ball. All I could hear was the sound, and in the end was like damn, I missed something good.
