I don't usually bitch about refs because I think that's just wasted energy, both on the court and off... but I'll make an exception this time.
IMO the refs absolutely ruined – for everyone involved – what could have been a great, physical, playoff style game. When the whistle blows every 10 seconds and nobody in the building has any idea why except the zebras... that's not basketball. Read the fucking room and let them play. I don't miss 90's style wrestling under the hoop and hacking at the perimeter, but jesus... actual physical contact does have a place in this sport.
When two 7 footers go at it hard, someone's gonna get bumped and it's not necessarily a foul every time. This shit is absolutely ruining the NBA game. When you foul someone hard under the bucket to make them earn it at the FT line, these days it's investigated like attempted murder. GTFO.
