Agreed, it was pretty fucking obvious he wasn't in the restricted area and then they pull that shit out of their asses to review it. The ref who called the charge even hesitated when he made the call if you all recall. At that point I knew something fishy was happening.Yeah that's the other thing...how can the refs honestly say they had to review whether he was in the restricted area? There was no way for any ref that was even watching the game to even consider the fact he was that deep. So as far as I can tell, since they shouldn't have reviewed that they shuldn't have even been allowed to consider changing the fucking call.
EVEN with all that said, the ONLY way it can be overturned is if LeBron is not in a "legal guarding position" and I have no idea how they even make that determination that they have the evidence to OVERTURN the call as it was on the floor????Like even once you get past the part of them illegally reviewing that issue, they still fucking cheated!!!! There is no way there was "clear and convincing evidence" if the call was 50/50 enough to warrant a fucking restricted area review? Like it makes ZERO FUCKING SENSE and I seriously have never seen a team get as blatantly robbed in such an important game.
So here’s the thing, if you can only review it if it’s in question whether or not he was in the restricted area, how the fuck can you overturn it based on anything but whether or not he was in the restricted areaYeah that's the other thing...how can the refs honestly say they had to review whether he was in the restricted area?

The NBA better be careful. These types of games ruin your product for average fans.
It's not hard to call a fair game.
This. All dayAn excuse to overturn. Unprofessional. Awful.
There are more people in the country rooting against the Warriors than for them right now. Make no mistake about it. It's been that way since coward went there.Nah - they’ve been doing this shit for years with impunity. Fans of big-market teams don’t care if Cleveland gets fucked over. They LIKE it when Cleveland gets fucked over.

So from my understanding...
- shouldn't have even been reviewed
- once reviewed, shouldn't have been overturned
Lool they've bent us over completely. I can live with wrong calls in the moment - the clean strip on Durant/the clear foul on Bron... garbage calls but I can still live with the human error. I CANNOT live with this, you have the technology in place giving you pretty much factual evidence and CHOSE not to go with it. That makes it cheating.
