    Thunder are #1 in the power rankings. Boob-No-More must be rolling over in the RC2 grave.

    minimal contact b.s.
    the league pulls out an extended world salad rulebook memo to cover up biased officials in the replay booth.

    Or maybe they really think it's minimal contact and the correct non call?

    Even if they go with the non call there, which I think is crap, they do admit that they then fucked up on the next possession twice. Turner should have been called for an offensive foul, and then Porzingis should NOT have been called for a foul. But, whatever. Fuck Boston, and I like Indy.

    no way, there was skullduggary afoot. The replay crew "overturned" the correct call on the floor. Even King James had a cow over the crooked officiating. The guy that got smacked, Jaylen Brown, he wants this crime scene investigated, not buried under supressed controversy.

    Raps played really well and got jobbed. We know the season is a wash but this was a typical Ben Taylor fuckjob.

    The call that should get some attention was a Lakers player grabbing the rim disrupting a Raptors shot. It was called a tech and no goaltending was awarded. Seems like the wrong call but maybe I don't know the rules. I've just never seen that before. I've seen basket interference a million times. Felt like I was going crazy watching it.

    Basically every 50/50 call in the fourth went to the Lakers. They needed all of them to win.

    I hope the players kick in some money to help pay what’s going to be a massive fine.

    I wonder what referee(s) made a deal with the mafia? Seems like an inside job was happening.

    Curious to see if Ant Man is a leader. He's always come off as immature to me.
