This is serious. Why is it so obvious that you guys control games. I’m currently watching the Heat/Mavs game and the officiating is the reason the score is close. There have been numerous rebounds that have been up for grabs where guys are competing for the ball and foul calls have been made on one side. CLEARLY!!!
There have been so many die hard fans that have left NBA basketball because of you guys. We just want to see a consistently called game. The same on both ends. It just lends to the idea, that I’ve fought for years, that some guys are on the take. Calling actual and consistent fouls would help dispell that notion. Please allow us to enjoy the NBA and not watch the game puppeteering that goes on. I really think that only former players should referee. Who would of thought that guys running at full speed may actually touch someone. The game has become less about the player and ALL about you and your fragil temperments.
PLEASE… get this Charge thing together… Are you guys really fooled by flopping. I’ve never seen anyone fall and their feet never move. Come on. It’s Physics. You guys are smarter than that.
