No he grabbed shumpert. Shumpert sold it but hey, welcome to the modern league. I hate it, but that's how it is these days. Back in the day you would yank your arm out and get the ball. And the refs seemed to have eased up and called some of those pushing fouls on the Cavs. But I can tell you what will happen cause it happens every finals. This game and maybe the next, refs will be agressive and everyone will whine, "let the boys play!" And then we'll have a game where very little is called, a fist fight almost breaks out, and everyone flips out about it. Cause this is every finals lately. EVERY finals. |
It's all a matter of the refs. If they want to call EVERYTHING, they're gonna hear about everything they aren't calling that the other team is getting called for. If they let them play, people complain, "Where's the Foul REF."
Me personally, I like the refs to be nonexistent in the Finals, and thus I just want the players to do what they get paid millions for (the ultimate reason why this game is bugging me). If they break out into fisticuffs, I like that, shows me they're playing with heart. However, they need to be consistent in what they call and how they call it, and if they want to call everything but aren't calling a majority of fouls one way or another, than it can be a huge problem for the team that is feeling the wrath.
The Warriors are playing dumb, but of the 12 fouls I saw from the Warriors in the first half, I'd say about 7-9 were fair. However, you can't argue the refs giving the Cavs 22 FTA's in the 1st quarter didn't somehow help them build a lead, even if they did miss 8.
