Why are the refs blatantly helping the Warriors?

[Cone]

How much help does this shitty ass team need? Cavs literally have one player doing everything because all the other players are injured AND they still need serious ref help? :roll: :roll:

This is the most pathetic championship of all time in all of sports.

There is no reason this shouldnt be a sweep no matter how much of a potential GOAT Bron bron is

[outbreak]

Why are the refs ignoring lebron using his off hand on every drive and post up he makes?

[kennethgriffin]

what plays are you referring to from the last game

links?

[Inferno]

Who else remembers that Bron slide-tackle on Curry that no one talked about? :roll:

[Xiengqichess]

Game 5 the refs tried to help the Cavs more. If you are smart enough you would see. They tried to stop many fast break the Warriors had as much as they could. For example, on the 24 s violation that Lebron shot an airball, if It would go in they would call it good, instead, he shot airball, Green rebouned and they blew the whisle. One time when the Aussi guy traveled badly and they didnt call it until he turned over. Many time they called fouls on the cavs when the Warriors had men advantage or they called a NOT shooting foul on the Cavs when a warrior had an offensive rebound under the basket with no man there.
They can not call touch foul on Lebron if they never call offensive fouls on him when he used off arm to push off or lower the shoulder on defender chest and many travels that he commits.

there was a thread about it and he hit the ball first. Another similar play happened to Delly and nobody talked about it.

end of the damn thread.

:eek: So its ok to take out a players legs as long as you touch the ball first?

if they didn't call the 24 seconds violation, then it should have been a goaltend.

How about that play where Delly kicked the ball away from curry and they still gave it to the cavs?

when delly was on floor with the ball, gsw players jumped on him ( not touching the ball) and nothing was called. Why should they call that on Lebron when gsw got away with worse on Delly?

[jimmy77x]

Why did the refs blatantly help the heat vs thunder in 2012 finals? oh thats right, refs are only bad when Lejollyrancherdick is losing.

If they called the foul on Bron then Delly would've never gotten the ball.

Whatever, it was 2 games ago. My point is that the refs have been shitty both ways.

How about that play where Delly kicked the ball away from curry and they still gave it to the cavs?

how about the play where mozgov went straight up and barbosa go a bailout call? Or how about the shot clock cheating giving cavs 8 seconds violation and leading to a gsw 3 points play?

Warriors have gotten more calls in their favor

Exactly.

[Xiengqichess]

The goaltend only called if the ball has chance to go in. The shot was way short.

[vert48]

The refs give Lebron so many superstar calls that it hurts the others on his team when they have to make things up. So Lebron will mug someone on defense and not get called, but "insert scrub here" breathes on someone a couple plays later, and the opponent gets a makeup call. I am not sure what the stats show, but my guess is that Lebron's fouls per game average is historically low considering the type of game he plays, and how much he has the ball.

[gilalizard]

In any game he plays in, LeFlop gets more help from the refs than anyone else.

Usually, he gets more help than the entire other team. For the rare times he gets treated with just "regular" star kid gloves, his stans freak out and think it's unfair.

He never, ever, gets worse treatment than anyone else on the floor though. Never. He is always the most ref-favored player on the floor.

He had 5 fouls yesterday

[Velocirap31]

Curry is the new golden boy of the NBA. The NBA is thrilled to have this well spoken, intelligent superstar to represent the league.

exactly. It was off target and short, no way in hell it's a goal tend.

Warriors have gotten more calls in their favor

Really? I can only think of Game 2 where the Warriors got some extremely favorable calls. In every other game, I felt as though the Cavs got more calls/non-calls in their favor.

The refs have been extremely strict on the Warriors in terms of jersey grabbing and holding yet they hold their whistles when the Cavs push off using their off-arm.

I can't remember the last time I saw a player get away with a half court violation, yet Lebron almost got away with two, and would have if Kerr wasn't as vocal about it as he was.

I can tell you that in at least 1/4 of his drives and post ups, Lebron has pushed off with his off-arm, clearly extending it and there have been no calls. That's a lot of non-calls.

[vert48]

He had 5 fouls yesterday
Go back and start counting the number of fouls he could have been called for, and you will see what I am talking about. 5 is obviously high for him.
I just checked, and Lebron's fouls per game are significantly below even other superstars in both the regular season and the playoffs. He has always been treated differently by the refs, and they seem to fix things with makeup calls against the scrubs.

Player RS PO
Lebron 1.8 2.4
Magic 2.3 2.8
Bird 2.5 2.8
Jordan 2.6 3.0
Kobe 2.5 3.0

Lebron and Jordan have played roughly the same number of playoff games. Lebron has 124 fewer PF's than Jordan. It's a joke.

[MP.Trey]

Games 1, 2 & 3 were in the favor of the Warriors. The first quarter of Game 4 was heavily in favor of the Warriors but for the most part, games 4 & 5 went the Cavs way, I believe. Refs can not be used as an excuse by any level headed fan this series, it's just been horrid both ways really.
