good call.

People also don't understand how hard it is to officiate an NBA game.. Refs don't get an overhead view like someone sitting at home looking at their TV.

 

[Giantmetfan07]

you're right. They have a closer look.

 

[elcheato]

They don't have every angle, or instant replay on everything.

There is no point to watch an NBA game if you think refs are always bad and it's corrupt.

 

[Giantmetfan07]

i don't think it's corrupt, i was just noting something floating on twitter. thought it was kinda funny.

I've sat courtside at Hornets games three times, the game isn't nearly as fast as people think it is. Don't get me wrong, it's fast, but not fast enough to where someone shouldn't be able to call a good game.

I'd settle for consistent officiating over perfect officiating.

That's kind of the problem, officiating isn't consistent.

Especially ref to ref, they all call it differently, which is a problem.

 

[elcheato]

I've sat court side as well, questioned a call and realized how wrong I was when I looked up and saw the replay.

Also, people don't realize how hard it is to officiate a monster of a human like LeBron. He absorbs so much contact, you can't really tell how hard he's being hit, or if at all.

Knicks need to try and get more shots to Novak. Too many plays have ended with Jeffries of Bibby taking a shot. That needs to stop.

 

[Giantmetfan07]

man, i wish i could sit courtside. Unfortunately that would probably cost me $8000.

If the Magic win this series, do they still can SVG?

 

[Giantmetfan07]

it'll at least give the boys at First Take something to talk about until Jets camp starts up.
