    Right on cue.
    Do you actually think the game has been called evenly ?

    MM is never going to think he refs screwed us over. No matter how bad they are, he won't.

    Going into the timeout, Dame gave one of the refs a look of pure disgust. Like the ref was something Dame scraped off his shoe.

    He'll probably argue they were actually in our favor. Dude, didn't you see that one call where Dame got FTs when he wasn't really fouled?

    I'm starting to fall in love with Collins defensively.

    Refs were horrible FOR BOTH SIDES (Sorry, MM, you don't get the satisfaction of me saying it's the refs fault) @Mediocre Man

    But, our ball movement that was there in the first half (You know, the one you probably missed @GrandJury ) Wasn't there in the 4th. That's what really hurt us.

    Problem is the refs would be horrible in the Cavs' favor about twice as often as they were horrible in our favor.

    17 compared to clevelands 33 free throw attempts not to mention the refs dictated how this game was played after that first quarter and Lebron and the fans complained. Not gonna blame the refs but thats a damn factor for sure

    No, this is the tired Blazers playing 0 defense. Not the Refs. They aren't helping, but they're not the reason we're being blown out.
