Officiating has gotten out of control, unambiguously worse than it was when there was literally a ref fixing games. Good job Silver.

Unfortunately all that matters is he’s making owners money.
100%

These clown refs think they're somehow involved in the game. A part of the story. Ref the game, walk away, collect your check. Rinse, repeat.

You are not involved in the outcome. Do not call flops. Do not call T's unless egregious. Do not call anything aside from obvious fouls/traveling.

This is Silver's greatest failure (and I generally like Silver). Giving these imbeciles more power, not less.

It used to be automatic that a team defending the last possession wits less than 24 seconds when they were not in the bonus, they would always take a foul. Boston very seldom does that now

Jesus that was an awful play by Tatum. Why are you picking up your dribble there? This is the guy that we all want pretend is the best player ever?
He's fucking good. Just stop.. we get it.

The refs suck, unequivocally, but Tatum seemed pissed that he still had to put in what he considered undue effort with Embiid and Maxey out.

That’s inexcusable. This board will blow Tatum no matter what but fuck that. Have a brain and shut up
You have been hammering Tatum all nite. Did he Corey Perry your mom or something?

you didnt respond to my question of LBJ, Dray, etc being subject to the same rules... yet it is called different. And still blame Tatum not shitty reffing.

This just goes to show the difference a good coach makes. Nurse is awful to play against, but his bullshit is effective. Joe has no sway over anyone.

A buddy of mine swore off the NBA after the Celtics got fucked in Game 7 of the 2010 NBA Finals. I envy him.
That was pretty much me until the playoffs last year. I'm about to drop out again. This league sucks.

agreed. Nurse is great at working the refs. Joe is a joke at that part of the job.

I think that the Boston organization needs to make a video of all the files that Tatum does not get compared to other superstars. They need to push that narrative all the time.

I will give Draymond this, at least he livens up the crowd on the rare occassion he gets tossed. Tatum should've gone WWE on the way out.

I am honestly curious here.

My opinion…Tatum should not have been thrown out. Not even close..but he should also shut the fuck up. And that’s pretty obvious.

Is there disagreement with this?

They need to just eliminate replays. It’s a blight on the product. Litigate stuff with fines afterwards if you must. It’s fucking unwatchable.

no. Tatum had a T already…he had to walk away. And refs should have held the whistle—neither of his techs was a reasonable one

Why should JT shutup vs Dray and LBJ and others doing more yapping

Not the best idea when with a T, but the BS calls and discrepancy is insane

Calm down dude. Again. I am holding him to some type of standard.

Everyone wants to have their cake and eat it too. Tatum is a top 5 player and he can do no wrong. It’s complete bullshit.

If you consider what I am saying “unfair”…I’ve been lectured several times that I’ve been unfair in holding people to their Jaylen Brown takes

actually both of the other refs through him out a the same time.. it was like a dance routine.
I saw that, I couldn't tell if it was simultaneous, or one saw the other start and did the same thing to be just as cool. Neither one was the ref Tatum was talking to in a calm manor.

Jesus man….I don’t have an answer. I’m not a ref. But he’s doing it and it’s hurting his team…so he should stop? Maybe? Or just bitch about LBJ and Dray?

Two of the refs Td him at the same time, so he may have said some magic words.
