Oh yeah and way too many turnovers still. Brooklyn I guess deserved the win but this could've easily been our game at the end with the right calls and executed chances

C'mon man demar came thru in this run. And made almost all his free throws
 
But he didn't, man. They force feed him the ball at the end of games, for some reason. Run the offense. I mean, even when Lowry's in there at the end, they force feed DeRozan, even when Lowry's proven to be more clutch.

All of this complaining about the refs nonsense is out of hand. Surprisingly enough, there are other things to talk about during a game that don't involve questioning every call that goes against whatever team you're rooting for. Every time I come in here it seems like that's all that's being talked about. It's fine if it's something controversial (I use that term loosely) at the end of a game, but come on not everything is about the refs.

You quit so many times before. Doesn't hold any meaning anymore.

*Shrug. With the ends of last nights LAC/GSW game and the end of today's BKN/TOR game, it was bound to happen. Both drastically affected.

The end had some bad calls. Livingston was using his hand on offense against Lowry and elbowed him and Lowry fouled out. Lowry had blood on the lip too

Could Derrick Rose have played, by now?

No, but could he be medically cleared and suit up, right now?

It hasn't just been isolated to those two games though. This happened all season and has continued into the playoffs. Officiating is a part of the game, we all get that, but it doesn't control the narrative. This isn't Kings/Lakers in 2002, none of these guys are blatantly rigging the games in favor of the "stars." This thread turns into the officiating discussion forum way too often and becomes more about what the officials are/aren't calling than what's actually happening in the game.
 
 
I'm not trying to single anyone out or start an argument but it's definitely something that should be addressed.

Maybe, but I doubt it.  I believe it was a 6-8 month recovery time, and he'd be right at 6 months right now.  No reason to rush back at this point.

Yeah. It's crazy how long recovery time is if the meniscus can actually be repaired.
