The refs, and fouls and WTF

College games aren't lower scoring because of good defense, it's because almost all college players and teams suck at scoring.

They have 8 less minutes and a longer shot clock. Try some math.

Yes but bad shooting plays its part as well

Meanwhile lesser players would hear the whistle. If anybody tried to play defense against Jordan a foul would be called whether they touched him or not

Definately, I remember when the Ws played the Showtime lakers in the playoffs back in the 1980s, and Magic would drive down the lane untouched and get a foul call.

Overall refs have been bad. If I have to grade it I would give them a C. My problem is they have been bad with replay. I don't get how they mess up on replay but they have.

All of the flopping has the refs in ? Mode at times.

They do control the game more though. More whistles now than back in the late 80s.

Refs/Umps make mistakes all the time. There comes a point where the Refs in the NBA just can't win, if they let the players play then the losing team's fans say "where was the foul call??", if they call fouls then the losing team's fans say "Let them play!!". People need to make up their minds so we can get a little consistency.
