    Is that a threat or a promise?

    I haven't read the post you're referring to but I have to say that your post is a personal attack regardless of what anyone else posts.

    Why the continual personal attack?

    Me and Riverman don't like each other and I've kinda said "Screw it lately". Been annoyed at him for a while for the BS he pulls on me. Its a long history.

    It's not personal. We only know each other on a forum-basis, and in terms of the forum, you certainly don't like what I post and have made it very clear numerous times. So if I say we don't like each other, obviously it's in terms of this forum.

    It should. I hope you tell that to Riverman next time he starts something.

    My post was intended for both of you. Sometimes you have to walk away.

    Things do even them out.

    Black & papag were both selling out to get the ball.
    Officials, especially in the NBA favor letting players decide the outcome of the game. Rather than blowing the whistle and deciding the game.
    Therefore they let them play on as they deemed it marginal contact.

    I didn't catch the first half cause working.

    idk. my 5 second count is faster than most refs I work with.
    Unless we're going to ad another official just to run a stopwatch for 5s calls. I'd say 5s it's a call that's pretty subjective.

    Things get a lot easier once you just ignore game threads until after the final whistle. Ever since I started doing that I’ve had a better time on here. Or just don’t take anything anyone says in them seriously, most of it is emotion driven anyway. I was guilty of the same crap.

    Bro..... I coached last night so I got home late. I watched the game at like 10:30. Late or not, I was YELLING at my TV calling him, ALL the Rockets who ever wore the uni (Olajuwon & Drexler included), and their fans, SOFT BITCHES...

    JUST for Harden doing that WEAK SHIT...

    You gotta 1000 between counts. Mine is like clockwork.

    Bottom line unless it's like 6 seconds no ref is gonna call it.

    The game threads were a lot worse when that dude with the Manson avatar and Tinuchi where still here. Since they were banned things have been a lot more bearable, and even enjoyable.

    @BonesJones takes are much less offensive, in my opinion. A lot of people throw him shade for punching a hole in the wall when we lost once, I freaking respect it. Fan is short for fanatic.

    How can one referee the game and use a stopwatch? Lol.

    Yeah I was just trying to point out that no 5s count is exactly the same.
    You try to be similar, but it's virtually impossible to be exactly the same.
