NBA rigging this game for the Bulls!

What does that even mean? Do the bulls get a tech free throw to start the game?

dont think so...he just adds 1 to his tech count to where if he reaches the pivotal 16 (?), he'd be suspended

No. It is just them acknowledging they screwed up. Only thing it does is makes it so he can only have like 15 more techs this playoffs until he is suspended. Not sure how the refs didn't see this in the instant replay they watched repeatedly.

It means nothing unless the player already has so many T's that he is on the borderline of hitting the benchmark for mandatory suspension.

Excuses excuses. Lebron's block on Mirotic should have been Cavs ball as well.

And Rose got a way with a travel before Jimmy Butler's big 3

Don't matter though. W

And Rose huge travel before Butler 3 to cut lead to 2.

Did they give the Cavs a tech when Blatt pulled a Chris Webber timeout call?

[warriorfan]

I hope they take this into consideration when assessing Gibson's punishment. Watching it live from the courtside view camera it looked bad, like he was stomping on his back. From other angles you could see that Dell was instigating and Gibson was more kicking his leg to get free rather than stomping him.

I could see them downgrading it to a flag 1

Butler also traveled on the game tying bucket before the Rose bankshot gamewinner.



If you are new to the NBA, the referee's swallow their whistles in the playoffs and at the end of the game. At the end of a playoff game it gets accentuated even more.

True. I don't even really care. I prefer there to be less whistles in the closing minutes, but a lot of people on here have lost their shit about certain calls that went in favor of the Cavs, and ignore those that went in favor of the bulls.
