2022-2023 NBA Season Thread

Hey Mark Jackson, wanna know why Russell Westbrook sat on the bench in the 4th? This is is why, bumass.

Did Westbrook’s shot get blocked by the rim?

Doesn't even matter at this point. Shouldn't even be here right now. Bogus late ass call for Jaylen Brown when everyone has started going down court and fractions of second to inbound the ball and the most egregious non call foul on Lebron I've seen in a long time. I'd still be this pissed if this was some random game like (Nets/Knicks earlier) if this wasn't the Lakers. The NBA has shit officials this year. They are not doing a good job AT ALL.

If they allow teams to keep their challenge if successful, teams may get 10 challenges lol.

Agree.

Please trade Russ soon....

I'm so mad at these garbage officials I can't even spare any anger for Russ. This is just typical Westbrook. Lebron wideass open in the corner yet Westbrook is out of control and somehow gets blocked by the rim.

Going to be some serious barking going on after this one

Celtics gotta give the game ball to the refs.

Lakers can’t win if they are playing 5 on 8.

True, but this is the outcome with Russ far too often, even if he was making $5M per. Get what you can for him, give a pick, dump him.

Obviously you also make a max number of challenges allowed

Barking? I'd be throwing hands.

NBA TV highlighting the fuckery

Didn’t expect a win tonight but I’d like it to be fucking fair

 

[shopson67]

Alright, gotta switch the channel to decompress, maybe smoke a bit (it's been a long time since I last did that, lol)...

In this case it's medicinal. Get you some.

Outcome changing calls hurt so much

I've had a week like this, after watching NC beat Syracuse with zebra assistance earlier this week. Arrghh,

This is exactly why the NBA has to do something. The refs this year have not been good. Tonight was the most extreme example in a long time, but this hasn't been your typical "refs are up and down, bad calls happen, it evens out" type of deal in the past. It's a legit problem in the league right now. Look how tight the West is. You can't have your officials fucking up that bad legit costing teams games.
