I generally dont believe in fixes....but that was as obvious as it gets

[gjn23]

how many times did clev try to and actually foul in the last 2 mins

bennett fking salvatore swallowed his fking whistle not once, twice, or three time......BUT FOUR FKING TIMES......actually blowing it once to call a jump ball after two hacks instead of a foul-free throw situation.

fuck him and steve javie

38 points to win and these two teams get 37 with a bunch of swallowed whistles the last 2 mins when delonte west and mo williams were RUNNING AT PLAYERS WITH THE INTENT TO FOUL

again.....it was as blatant an attempt to shade a side/total that ive ever seen.

Sorry gjn, thought you were just making an observation. You obviously had $ on the over, and it wan't my intent to knock a man when he's down. NO DOUBT they were doing all they could to keep this one under the total. Under bettors recieved ALL THE HELP they could get in the final min's of the game. The over was the right side. Shake it off, happens to all of us...

I thought the over was 192.5??? 193 was the highest I saw..... didnt it hit 193?

 

[edludes]

They just wanted the game to be over,as in done with.Why would they care if it went over or under,the NBA isn't a casino.

Definately not the fix everyone was anticipating. Looks like a Kansas City shuffle.

Finally, a sensible fucking response..........come on guys. You REALLY think that the refs were controlling the game.....the TOTAL no less ???

Sometimes the right play doesn't pay off. If you're consistent, you get a couple of those on your end too.....

 

[snoozer]

Couldn't you make the same point about Mo williams and west and a 'fix'???

Why are you running at players and fouling them when you are down 20 points with 1 minute left.

Were they trying to get the total over??? :shrug:

after west ft with 1:57 left the lead was cut to 13......if you think you're going to win you are going to press/foul.....which he TRIED to do THREE TIMES....but no whistle (in fact he got a whistle after hacking turkolou and "stealing" the ball).

They continued to try and press/foul but never ONCE did the refs blow the whistle......i can understand swallowing the whistle of a double digit lead with 90 secs left when teams are just running the clock out, but these guys were TRYING to foul to extend the game three straight possessions and salvatore/javie never blew one whistle.
