There's been a lot of talk regarding whether or not LeBron gets a pass for these last two Finals series.
The answer is yes and no.
Yes, obviously, because his teams absolutely were incapable of beating this Warriors team. Because nobody in this league can win 4 out of 7 against this Warriors...
I really, really, really hate the NBA right now. I don't care how terrible the precedent would be, it'd be in the NBA's best interest to force the breakup of this absurd superteam.
It's downright outrageous to suggest that he's a baby after last night's game. I'd be surprised if he wasn't having trouble not breaking down after the officiating decided to take the game away
Because I have a pulse and a pair of working eyes. That they are unbeatable is not an excuse for really, really, shitty officiating. Durant was getting Jordan calls out there. Truly absurd.
He's not getting a pass. Observation, logic, and critical thinking skills tell us that the Cavs are about a quarter of what the Warriors are, quality wise. You can't get a pass if you can't win in the first place. This Golden State team is fucking unbeatable, which makes the officiating...
What I need is a game 2 in for Cleveland or the officiating problems in game 1 become even more unacceptable. The league literally has to hand game 2 to Cleveland. It's the only way to make this even somewhat right. The NBA can either make sure this obvious hosing of the Cavaliers right or this...
Can we really call this a mental breakdown when Cleveland played the last 24 minutes 5-on-8? They didn't lose this game--they had it taken away from them by men who are supposed to be professionals and the best at what they do in the world, but were unfit to officiate a shitty high school game...
Why did we all just waste 2.5 hours of our lives if the Warriors weren't even going to have to earn the win? What was the point of watching that game if the officiating was going to decide it before the last 30 seconds? The Warriors should never have been within 5 points in the last couple of...
The league has some explaining to do. The officiating over the last 15 minutes has been absolutely unacceptable.
This cannot happen. It can't happen. You can't effectively decide a game and probably change this entire series. Cleveland earned this game over and over again and the refs kept...
They are literally giving this game to Golden State. After ignoring an obvious foul where LeBron should have had an and 1 on the other end and then call that soft shot.
Rule change idea. Hitting a shooter's hand after release should not be a foul because it has no effect whatsoever on the shot.
So many garbage calls in this game.
NBA officials react too much to the actions of the players. Call it if you see it. If you don't see it, don't blow your whistle and...
