it is easy to accept if the Lakers is already out of contention. But damn they badly needed a win. |
Nothing went our way this season. We are basically having to play close to .600 ball to have a chance instead of comfortablely in the playoffs.
This is different than last season, the guys are playing extremely hard |

What do you guys think btw?
Do you think the NBA will try to remedy this by doing something like an apology?
Or simply do the usual. Issue a 2 minute report and move on. |

They won’t ever apologize.
The best we can hope is to get some favorable calls in similar situations(I doubt it) |

It is, and they rewarded floppers like Harden for years |

they gonna do something to pull down the Lakers because it looks like they are getting healthy the right time before the playoffs. They don't want them in the playoffs, no way they will give bron another chance to have a ring after he overtook KJA. |

Man I even seen a tweet by skip Bayless indicating the bad call.
Skip btw is very anti Laker and anti Lebron.
It seems multiple people including non Laker fans dislike what happened.
If the NBA doesn’t do anything, it is possible there will be a lot of pressure on Adam silver. |

What do you expect the NBA to do? Nothing that can overturn the result of a game |

The only thing the NBA can do right now to make up for all these missed calls is to give the Lakers a bunch of questionable or even bad calls in their favor.
Historically from what I've read, refs would do this. I think Chick Hearn called them make-up calls or cosmetic calls.
I don't know how an anti-Laker conspiracy would make sense for the NBA. If the NBA prevented the Lakers and LeBron from making the playoffs, it would lose lots of ratings and money.
If anything, a conspiracy to help us win lots of games, make the playoffs and have a shot at winning the championship would be in the league's best interest. |

Can they change rules midsesson like allow multiple challenges or reviewing calls last 2 minutes?
Ham even suggested maybe 4 refs a game
I actually don’t know if the NBA is allowed to change rules mid season. If not crap on the nba. |

That doesn’t help us at all because it goes both ways. All the calls went against us and any rule change only affects the future. |

Dan Woike Said: Because the NBA is so protective of Jordan's Legacy, even the referee is LeBron James's opponent just so he can't overtake Jordan in the GOAT position. |

I wish I could bring back Earl Strom. To serve the right call and kick some ass as needed in the Ref's locker room. |

The serious concern here is allowing sheet like this can escalate to violence like had happened in other sports. |

There were some terrible no-calls leading up to malice in the palace. |

It’s not just a Lebron thing. It’s a Lebron and Lakers thing. He’s on the Lakers, who are loved by fans but in no way media darlings (due to a magnitude of factors) and he’s getting the (bleep) end of the stick.
The Lakers have been pushed around since the Chris Paul trade. I’m sure our revenue and Lebron’s revenue is enjoyed by the rest of the league, but still they are more than okay with pushing us around. If I were Jeanie, I would have flamed the league verbally long time ago. _________________ “You have to dance beautifully in the box that you are comfortable dancing in.” - Kobe Bryant |

Come Monday, they will fine Lebron 25,000, Anthony Davis 50,000, DHam 50,000 and PatBev will be fine 100,000 and suspended 3 games. |

I wouldn’t be surprised. Don’t forget DS for that tweet he sent out. Really pathetic what the NBA has become |

Is Lebron going to apologize for missing a FT? Is AD going to apologize for missing a bad 3 point shot? It’s an entertainment industry made up of humans and humans make mistakes. Will the league apologize for missing the offensive foul when Lebron led with his off arm and knocked down the defender on a drive? Of course those missed calls never get mentioned here. If you ask for stricter enforcement of the rules you might not like the result. _________________ If you’ve got a dream, chase it, cause a dream won’t chase you back. |

First off…you are allowed to use your off arm as a shield/frame as long as you don’t forcibly push defender out of the way. Lebron puts his arm out but keeps it steady as he drives. Secondly, offensive player can initiate contact with defender if defender isnt squared up and takes the hit in the chest. Defenders are always sliding with Lebron and are not squared up so Lebron/any other offensive player has the right to power through the defender in that scenario.
Refs didn’t make mistakes last night. They CHOSE not to call the fouls in plain sight. Especially last one where ref was standing 5 feet away looking directly at the foul happening. |

Thanks for proving my point about it all being about bias. I get that on a team message board but the fake outrage should be pointed at those responsible, the Lakers, instead of the league. But it’s easier to blame others. I will continue to blame the Laker organization, form a team that doesn’t need help from the refs. _________________ If you’ve got a dream, chase it, cause a dream won’t chase you back. |
