That Cavs shooting was unbelievable

In terms of control of the game and keeping it from being a poo poo show the reffing was a loving train wreck, don't think it had much effect on the result though

this was one of the accusations Tim Donaghy made that I kinda believe. He said he would place bets depending on who was reffing games.

the Cavs would've won this without the awful reffing because they were draining every three and Curry did his shrinking thing, but still, really bad look

I will never sign up for that site because it's a dang honeypot and the votes, especially the news subreddits, are very clearly manipulated by overly interested third parties with an agenda, but the NBA page is great for clip accumulation. I will find you some salty posts okay

anyone got a video of the zaza stepping on lebron's foot?

seemed like a classic zaza dirty play and i read somewhere else that he did a double take to get his foot in the right place

edit: here it is

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VtZi8M-A75c

from the front it doesn't look bad at all, but from the side it does seem pretty suspicious that he puts his foot so far back.

hard to call, but i say "gently caress zaza"

Well the lead held so it means anything the refs did was negligible, unless you believe the refs awaited until the warriors were just about to go off to start calling poo poo but that is insane.
