And his shoes are ugly.

Time to vent (without excuses):

HORRIBLE OFFICIATING

HORRIBLE OFFCIATING

and YES

HORRIBLE OFFICIATING

My uncle is an FOB arab from the middle east he has barely watched basketball and was wondering if someone payed off the refs? He could not believe the calls he asked if they were playing hamame basketball (pussy basketball). I mean these are two competitive teams did you see BOSTON VS. LA? They were letting them go. I mean these refs were horrible, aAre you serious 3 shots for Lebron for what foul? AJ fouled who?? Out the restricted area and its a foul on AJ? AJ gets wrist smacked NO FOUL AJ gets bumped NO FOUL. Caron gets bumped no foul. Caron fouls again on the strangest officiated play?

F*CK CRY BABY LEBRON

F*CK DESHAWN STEVENSON FOR DOING THE FEEL MY FACE & LOSING THE GAME FOR US BY MISSING 2 FREE THROWS YET AGAIN

They break my heart, they nearly broke my remote today and it is just a sport. I just wish they win for them, because they fight so hard and never get anything back. For that reason I support a 0 is that what this team is based on 0? Meaning you may have 0 wins, or nothing but you stilll pour your heart out. Thats what my team does, so for that win from Cleveland today they should feel proud becauset they didnt play ball but thanks to horrible officiarting the momentum was swung and they got a undeserving victory.

I duno Im tired and just wish this was a nightmare that never happened. We were up by potentially 8 points in the last 3 minutes what happened!!!!????

At least we made it a game… and at least it was made clear why Mike James was brought in as a legitimate offensive threat.

The first one now will later be last….

If the Wiz had won, they couldn’t have released all that “chalk” from the ceiling at the end! Let’s sell some shoes!!!!!!!

One of the worst officiated games I’ve seen in an incredibly long time.

McGuire needs to keep playing. And, if he plays like that, so does Mike James. But McGee NEEDS minutes, that was ridiculous.

You’re Ed Tapscott. You’re not staying around. The team blows. And you get the rare opportunity to respond to one of the worst officiated games in televised history (3 horrible calls; the last charge on Butler was actually a reasonable call, except for the fact that it was in that minute).

And you shake hands and slink off. Business as usual.

The game was stolen, but if you don’t really even object to the burglar, I don’t have any real sympathy for you.

Or even express displeasure. Instead, it’s blank resignation. Antawn showed some fire on the first charge call, and then, when he saw the ship going down, and he got the cheap offensive to foul out, he just walked off, resigned. Other coaches get fined.

And this wasn’t run-of-the-mill bad officiating, by the way. This wasn’t one bad call.

This was end of the game, horrific, home-job f*** all. A once in a year or even 3 screw-job.

A decent coach would have been just batshit enough not to get a T and then he would have taken a fine.

First of all, presume no one ever did it before. So what? The circumstances that occurred yesterday warrant it.

Second, Theus just got tagged in November for $10k. Off my head, I know Pat Riley, Isaiah Thomas, Van Gundy and even Eddie Jordan have taken fines for bitching about the officiating. And Larry Brown used to get fined a lot.

Third, has there ever been a team in the history of the NBA as lacking of fire and docile as the Wiz? No. They are meek, sheeplike, with pleasant people and soft, caring big men.

So even after a complete hosing, they shrug. And their coach just ho hums.

I gave you the info on fines for coaches when they bitch about officiating when you acted as if they never occurred.

And there is a connection. if you lead a team and they just figure that getting screwed is part of the deal, then they’ll get even softer. There is an advnatage to expressing that, you know, you actually give a sh**.

Though in the case of the Wiz, I don’t think being softer is a possibility.
